The mind and body are complex and interconnected. We can no longer state clearly where the mind ends and the body begins. Many severe mental illnesses have a clear biological component, and genetic factors have been implicated in some disorders. This is not the whole picture, however. Other severe mental illnesses seem to be caused primarily by environmental and family factors. Child abuse has been implicated as a causal factor in Borderline Personality Disorder and Dissociative Disorders, for example. Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder is an anxiety disorder which is caused by a trauma in the environment. Recent research suggests that exposure to trauma can actually change the way that the brain develops.
