Neuroscientists have made significant advancements in their knowledge of the brain and nervous system over the course of the last few decades, which has led to the discovery of interesting and vital new information on the inner workings of these organs. In spite of these significant advances, our efforts to understand, cure, and prevent pathogenic changes have not yielded particularly beneficial results. The objective of completely treating mental illness is still difficult to achieve, despite the fact that it creates a huge financial burden on our society, affects more people in more ways for longer periods of time than any other disease, and is the leading cause of disability worldwide. As of right now, we do not know if schizophrenia or any other mental condition reflects the expression of separate diseases. If this is the case, then we do not know what biological similarities and differences exist across the diagnostic categories that we utilize. Naturally, even short-term assistance that reduces the symptoms of the illness and the accompanying suffering of the targeted hospital populations is very valuable and constitutes a significant contribution. This is because the symptoms of the illness and the accompanying suffering are a direct result of the illness. Mental illness certainly has an effect on more than just the person who is experiencing it; it is a burden on families as well as on society as a whole, diminishing the sufferer's ability to have a positive societal influence, their capacity to work, and their general quality of life.
