Is mental illness to same as emotional illness?
I don't think so. Mental illness refers to any of the many diagnosable disorders in the field of Psychiatry and mental health. They include disorders like major depression, schizophrenia, and bipolar disorder. Usually, when people use the term 'mentally challenged', they are referring to someone who seems to have a deficit in intellectual ability or intelligence. An intellectual deficit is not a mental illness.

Did Gladys Presley suffer of a mental illness?
She was addicted to drugs, which some can consider a mental illness, there are plenty of drug addicts in the mental hospitals. Miss Joplin, sadly, had no religious background of any kind, and there were no religious trappings, even crosses at her funeral. She may have been bisexual as well.A bit more:While drug addiction is a disease, it is not typically considered a "mental illness". As for her not having a "religious background of any kind", that is not a mental illness, it's a lifestyle choice; it comes under our American freedoms - freedom of religion (or lack thereof).And, while I am a Christian, I can still honestly say that if not being "religious" were a form of mental illness, there wouldn't be enough mental hospitals in the world to treat everyone who doesn't believe in God. As for there being "no religious trappings, even crosses at her funeral" - what?And, while there is no proof "she may have been bisexual", even if she had been bisexual, that is not a mental illness, either.
