    The exact cause of epilepsy is not known, but it is believed to be due to a combination of genetic, environmental, and developmental factors. Some people may have a genetic predisposition to epilepsy, while others may develop the condition as a result of a brain injury, infection, or other medical condition that affects the brain. In many cases, however, the cause of epilepsy remains unknown.

In the 19th century, female hysteria was considered a diagnosable physical illness in women. It was believed to be caused by a variety of factors, including sexual frustration, a wandering uterus, and nervousness. However, the diagnosis of hysteria fell out of favor in the early 20th century and is no longer recognized as a medical condition. Today, symptoms that were once attributed to hysteria may be diagnosed as conversion disorder or somatic symptom disorder.

    The exact cause of bipolar disorder, formerly known as manic depressive psychosis, is unknown. However, several factors may be involved, such as biological differences, genetics, and environmental triggers. People with bipolar disorder appear to have physical changes in their brains. The significance of these changes is still uncertain but may eventually help pinpoint causes. Bipolar disorder also seems to run in families, suggesting a genetic link. However, no single gene is responsible for bipolar disorder; instead, a number of genetic and environmental factors are thought to act as triggers. Stressful life events such as the breakdown of a relationship, physical, sexual, or emotional abuse, or the death of a close family member or loved one can trigger the symptoms of bipolar disorder.

    Manic Depressive Psychosis is an outdated term that was used to describe what is now known as Bipolar Disorder. Bipolar disorder, formerly called manic depression, is a mental health condition that causes extreme mood swings that include emotional highs (mania or hypomania) and lows (depression). When you become depressed, you may feel sad or hopeless and lose interest or pleasure in most activities. When your mood shifts to mania or hypomania (less extreme than mania), you may feel euphoric, full of energy, or unusually irritable. These mood swings can affect sleep, energy, activity, judgment, behavior, and the ability to think clearly.

    Until the most recent version of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5) was published in 2013, schizophrenia was officially recognized as having five distinct subtypes:
    1. Paranoid,
    2. Disorganized,
    3. Catatonic,
    4. Undifferentiated, and
    5. Residual.
    Because the symptoms of these subtypes were not felt to be reliable or consistently valid, the American Psychiatric Association determined that having distinct subtypes hindered diagnosis and removed them when they published the DSM-5. Although they are no longer used for diagnostic categorization, some mental health professionals still find these subtypes useful for understanding the ways in which schizophrenia can present. This nuanced understanding can help determine the best ways to approach treatment plans.

    The actual causes of schizophrenia are not fully understood. There are many factors that normally contribute to the onset of schizophrenia. These include abnormalities in brain chemistry, heredity, abnormalities in the brain, and complications during pregnancy and birth. Abnormal functioning of neurotransmitters such as dopamine can cause schizophrenia. Schizophrenia tends to run in families. If a parent has the disorder, the offsprings are susceptible to the disease. Abnormalities such as shrinkage in the brain, or circuitry dysfunction can cause schizophrenia. Chances of a child getting Schizophrenia are increased by infection or malnutrition during pregnancy and complications during birth such as brain injury.

    Psychoneurosis, also known as neurosis, is a mental disorder that causes a sense of distress and a deficit in functioning. Neuroses are characterized by anxiety, depression, or other feelings of unhappiness or distress that are out of proportion to the circumstances of a person’s life.

    An influential view held by the psychoanalytic tradition is that neuroses arise from intrapsychic conflict (conflict between different drives, impulses, and motives held within various components of the mind). Central to psychoanalytic theory, which was founded by Austrian neurologist Sigmund Freud, is the postulated existence of an unconscious part of the mind that, among other functions, acts as a repository for repressed thoughts, feelings, and memories that are disturbing or otherwise unacceptable to the conscious mind. These repressed mental contents are typically sexual or aggressive urges or painful memories of an emotional loss or an unsatisfied longing dating from childhood. Anxiety arises when these unacceptable and repressed drives threaten to enter consciousness; prompted by anxiety, the conscious part of the mind (the ego) tries to deflect the emergence into consciousness of the repressed mental contents through the use of defense mechanisms such as repression, denial, or reaction formation.
