Can psychological disorders be prevented?

In order to prevent a psychological disorder one must first understand what constitutes a psychological disorder. A psychological disorder is characterized by subconscious thinking that is not true resulting in negative emotions and behaviour that cannot consciously be controlled. Many humans have subconscious thought patterns that are not true and have psychological disorders. This distinction is important as most people diagnosed with psychological disorders are diagnosed only after they have difficulty maintaining emotional and behavioral stability. In order to discover how to prevent psychological disorders, one must first be able to change the subconscious mind. It is suggested that humanity is of itself not cable of changing subconscious thought patterns. Otherwise people suffering from negative emotions due to subconscious thought patterns would be able to create positive emotions and therefore all of mankind would be completely happy, peaceful and satisfied. It is suggested that if humans do not have correct subconscious thought and cannot create correct subconscious thought they will always have a psychological disorder unless Someone else creates correct subconscious thought within them. The only way to prevent psychological disorders would be to help an individual gain access to correct subconscious thought (truth or God), thereby preventing the establishment of untrue subconscious thought patterns.

Sadomasochism or abuse what's the difference?

Abuse is often thought of by people as inflicting pain on an unwilling being or beings with the intention to cause physical or psychological harm to said being. Sadism used as a sexual term describes a person who takes pleasure in inflicting some form of humiliation or pain on a person, usually consenting, with the intention of sexual arousal or stimulation to both persons. Masochism describes someone who takes pleasure in receiving the humiliation or pain from another consenting person and is often stimulated or aroused by it. Sadomasochism is is the combined term reffering to any persons who like to receive or inflict pain during sexual intercourse Sadomasochism used as a psychological term describes someone who inflicts pain on themselves. Medically, sadomasochism is a mental disorder that describes the person as self destructive, and often suggests psychological therapy for the person. There are of course many people who like sadomasochism during sex, and certainly do not to have any mental illness or psychological disorder and are very sane indeed. There are also many individuals who intentionaly inflict pain and distress on themselves to the point where they become selfdestuctive and are considered a danger to themselves and are certainly characterized as having a mental disorder. Unfortunately, there are some individuals who take pleasure in abusing other unwilling persons and sometimes do it repeatedly, sometimes intentionaly causing physical and psychological pain to the person. These people may be considered to have anger or dominance issuses and even mental disorders. In history there have been many tragic incidents involving abuse, sadomasochism and insane individuals. Though there are times when sadomasochism and abuse go hand in hand, it is certainly not true that sadomasochism always involves abuse, intentional or not.
