Does Spirituality Promote Good Mental Health?

If you struggle with Emetophobia and depression, you may be interested in an alternative perspective on getting treated.

The director 0f a religious Web site insists that faith is vital in treating depressive symptoms. He says that other methods of treatment will not cure depression unless combined with a faith-based approach. It’s unlikely that most non-religious people would agree with this assertion, but surprisingly, the British Medical Journal hasn’t quite countered it. The Journal members say exercise will not likely eliminate depression long-term, but it provides a temporary improvement in mood. To test the validity of the religious site’s statement, more research on faith and its effects on treating mental health issues is needed.
