Mental, illness is a state of mind accomplished through the coordination of an emotional affect and a sense of self, which attempts to adopt that affect into a 'real condition' of its existence. Mental, illness occurs at the point that one's self identity (self)abusively re-enacts this emotional affect after the underlying chemical or neurological state that precipitated it has waned.
Mental, illness is a state of mind that, through time, becomes a component of self-identity. Over time and through the aid of legitimating institutional discourses this albeit 'administered' self becomes a reality through bureaucratic workings and health care diagnoses. And what was once a private experience with a state of mind becomes a performance, a public stigma, a sick role, carried potentially for life.
