Characteristics of Mental Illness :

  1. Changes in one's thinking
  2. Changes in memory

These changes in behaviour cause distress and suffering to individual or others or both.

Changes and the consequent distress cause disturbance in day to day activities, work and relationship with important others (social and vocational dysfunction).
