Book Chapter
Introduction
2009
Overview
This introduction presents an overview of key concepts discussed in the subsequent chapters of this book. The book concerns how creativity and spirituality can work as allies in the process of recovery from mental illness. It takes two directions: one is to explore the nature and sources of hope. Viewing creativity as spiritual pursuit can be a fruitful avenue for exploring ways that spirituality and creativity can be utilized in clinical application. Manic-depressive illness has been associated with heightened states of both religiousness and creativity, and spiritual strategies can be used alongside other treatment modalities in its treatment. Spiritual interventions have been shown effective for anxiety disorders as well. Fundamental controversies between science and religion laid the groundwork for the modern origin of the antagonism between psychiatry and religion. If psychiatrists were to view religion in a holistic perspective, religion might be understood as a significant domain of adaptive functioning, which may be adversely impacted by psychopathology.
