When people are sick in the body, they may immediately try to find ways to recover by getting rest, taking medicine, or consulting a doctor. They will ususally take some measures at an early stage not to aggravate the condition.
However, when they are sick in the mind, people are less active in trying to recover, thinking that they will become well as time goes by or not really knowing what to do. In many cases, they may blame other people for their psychological pain and suffering and try to change other people. All of the above only aggravate psychological conditions.
Both the body and the mind are important for us to live happily. Healthy body is necessary for survival and healthy mind is necessary for happiness. They are equally important but maintaining healthy mind is less emphasized than it should be.
If you want to achieve happiness, you must always watch your psychological health and take a good care of even mild symptoms of the sickness in the mind as you do for the sickness in the body. You must treat your own psychological wounds before analyzing what and who caused your sickness in the mind.
