I don't know if you've noticed this yet--but most of us at Sorcery are borderline mental patients. Then again, the difference between a psychic and a schizophrenic is one is functional and the other is dysfunctional 
This implies that the mentally ill are people with abilities that aren't well understood by science, who would benefit from a skilled shaman. A skilled shaman being an individual who can help bridge the connection between the tonal and the spiritual bodies -- alignment (to bring functionality to the individual). Ideally, the mentally ill are treated as people going through a type of kundalini awakening--and those often bring sudden energetic shifts. Give them the right support and they can come out of those breaks in reality successfully and intact. Give them no support and them come out broken--and cycling through an assortment of medication to "fix" their spirit.
It's tragic that America hasn't merged the fields of spirituality with medicine. The two together work miracles. Naturopathy is taking this route and it's becoming more popular as people are realizing the inadequacies of western medicine. Eastern cultures have been practicing naturopathy for centuries--if the east and west could manage to get along, healing might occur to a greater degree. How wonderful that would be.
