Functional mental health is a very different viewpoint than the one we have experienced before. The old system is lagging in treatment methods and proper diagnostics. We missed the point of great medical and mental care when doctors separated into specialties and focused only on one aspect of a person's body or mental health, or even generalized medicine. By separating the mind from the body and the body from the mind, we have missed critical information. An integrated approach is necessary and vital to our continued well-being and sustainablility What would this entail? Likely you would have a whole team of doctors, therapists, chiropractors, OB/GYN, social workers, endocrinologist, etc., with a lab and diagnostic tools available. A comprehensive assessment would rule out known possible ways anxiety could be the culprit instead of the sub-standard specialty clinics that can't draw outside of the lines. This is haphazard and in need of a shift. We need to look at how food and nutrition or lack of, impacts mental health, sleep hygiene, toxins, a sense of spirituality or lack of, relationships, the environment, genes, medications, diseases and pathogens, and the list goes on but we must continue to look evolutionary models and update our systems to provide quality care. At QSM, our hope is to educate for a brighter future and revolutionize the way we deliver mental health.
