Relapse
Relapse
Mental illness, in most cases, is a chronic and progressive disease with frequent relapse.
Relapse, in simple words, is defined as worsening of mental symptoms. Relapses happen over the lifetime of any patient, sometimes going up even to 90%, as indicated by the studies.
Relapse bring with them stress, trauma and anxiety, both for the person and the family, and in extreme cases may require a long term plan.
Relapse prevention is a proactive process. In absence of the same, about 47% of patients are bound to relapse within 12 months.
