This is:

Sin does not cause mental health difficulties. Sin does not cause Bipolar Disorder. Sin does not cause Borderline Personality Disorder. Mental illness is caused by a complex interaction of genetic and environmental factors. This is not opinion- we know this. If 'sin' is involved, it is sins perpetrated by other people on the victim, as so many on this board have experienced. The idea that I, or the many people I know and love, or the many many people on these boards, are suffering from mental health difficulties as a result of their own sin is abhorrent to me, and I would not be able to return to a 'therapist' who believed this. This belief is not tolerable in anybody, but a therapist of all people should know better. She should be ashamed of herself.
