Music has the power to influence people’s emotions; it can make them happy, sad, or angry. Music can also aid in the recovery of mental illnesses.
The Geriatric Mental Health Department of the Chhatarati Shahuju Maharaj Medical University in India is starting a music therapy clinic to treat elderly patients with mental disorders (like dementia). Nearly 5% of elderly people older than 60 suffer from dementia.
S.C. Tiwari, the head of the Geriatric Mental Health Department, said that music is found to have a positive impact on patients suffering from mental tension. Slow and melodious music soothes tension; rock, pop, and fast music should be avoided because of the negative emotions it can draw out, and it also raises blood pressure. So, soft, melodious, and soothing music is the way to go if you want to relieve your mental tension.
Not only can music therapy help people with mental illnesses, but playing an instrument and being a part of an ensemble can help, too.
Tunefoolery Concert Ensembles is a group of 50 musicians from Cambridge, Massachusetts, who are all living with a mental illness. The group helps musicians move away from the mental patient role into a new identity as a professional musician and performer.
“Tunefoolery is a great example of how non-traditional mental health treatment truly can change people’s lives,” said one of the band members. “Music is powerful medicine! I have a tremendous feeling of belonging with Tunefoolery. I have found great friends here. It’s a job and a creative outlet at the same time.
The members perform as solo acts or small ensembles; they play 75 to 90 gigs every year at mental health treatment programs, hospitals, nursing homes, and other locations. You can visit their website at www.tunefoolery.org.
During my research, I found a website for artists living with a mental illness: www.mentalhealthmusicnetwork.net. I also found a study about how music therapy soothes mental illness: www.uninews.unimelb.edu.au/news/4302. Check those out if you’d like; they’re pretty interesting.

I still havent picked a carreer, so I have my options open. What will I be doing there as a mental health specialist? Honestly? Will I be rescueing people or what? Would I be in a base? What do I do in war?
Since we were prohibited from using actual clients of Vera French, I suggested the concept of “The One” to try to make the subject of mental health more “personal.” I also selected the music and photos used throughout the video and created/composed most of the video shots, although I did not press the record button. I was also the editor.

Mental Health Screening, Psychiatry & Pharma Marketing Scam Dr. John Breeding discusses that the intentions behind mental health screening might not be helping people but actually just for Pharma to sell more psychiatric drugs and make a profit.
