This Isn’t a Healing Guide This isn’t a feel-good story riddled with toxic positivity and advice on how you should buckle up your bootstraps and get over it when you’ve suffered a great loss. Neither is it a tale of a rushed urge to heal and stop feeling pain. This story doesn’t offer any expectations or pressure – it is merely my lived experience. The unexpected moments where past wounds were surfaced long after my loss. The instances where I started to feel joy again – and the guilt that accompanied it. The paradox of feeling heartbreak and peace at once and not only being okay with that, but realizing it was the unlock to my ultimate happiness.

The 3 Etiologies of Mental Illness: the Supernatural, Somatogenic, and Psychogenic
The concept of mental illness dates all the way back to the Stone Age. However, our modern perception of what this means is far from the general understanding of mental illness in the past. Unlike other fields of medicine and science which usually follow a more linear pattern of discovery and research, the field of mental illness has taken a more cyclical pattern throughout history, with philosophers, doctors, and psychiatrists through the years circling between different theories of etiology relating to mental illness. Etiology is the study of finding the specific cause for a disease or condition. In general, there are three theories of etiology surrounding mental illness: the supernatural, somatogenic, and psychogenic.
