when you say 'mental help', I guess you are referring to psychologists, psychiatrists, or maybe a witch doctor? Putting faith in these professions is idol worshop. It is believing in something other than god. these professions don't do any good, they are merely offering us something to believe in besides god. You've been indoctrinated in an unfortunate manner, but the fact that you believe the things you've been taught is very harmful not only to you, but to your offspring. god remembers what you say, think and feel, you should be careful and re-evaluate much.

You paint with an awful wide brush there mister....I am a Christian who is studying child psychology so that I can help children who are mentally ill, such as my daughter, who is bipolar. I don't expect people to put faith in me...I want them to have faith in themselves and hopefully, by my example, show them the inner peace I have achieved through our Lord after living with my own mental illness all my life. I am also bipolar...but through my faith have learned to cope without the mind altering drugs, and want to teach others to do so as well...to fight the impulses that bipolar illness brings with faith instead of giving in to temptation and the subsequent sin. Through my experiences with my own daughter, I have met many good Christians that have devoted their lives to helping children and adults in this manner, they have made a significant difference in the lives they touch.
