In human history, out of fear of mental illness, early people used many non-scientific methods to fight it. In ancient times, the ancients believed that the causes of mental illness were external, such as being cursed and the soul getting out of their heads, so they used witch doctors, prayed, or held a ritual that asked God to remove their own body impurities. In the Middle Ages, under the influence of religion, mental illness was generally considered to be "demonstration" or "god's punishment". Therefore, a priest called "exorcist" was invited to perform an exorcism ceremony.

In modern times, especially after the 18th century, due to the rapid development of science, mental illness has begun to be treated as a disease that requires medical help, and given to doctors for treatment, but in the initial stage it was only inhumane and compulsory to lock patients into hospitals and imprison them. In the late 18th century, there appeared another kind of mental illness that was caused by the obstruction of the flow of electricity or magnetism in the human body. Therefore, magnetism or magnetism and hypnosis were used for treatment.

The development of modern psychology has greatly changed the treatment of mental illness. At present, the treatment of mental illness is based on the "bio-psycho-social model". A good mental therapy model must be combined with biomedicine, psychotherapy, and society. Rehabilitation plan.

For example, during the acute hospitalization of a schizophrenic patient, medications are given to help alleviate positive symptoms. Professionals such as physicians, psychiatric nurses, or psychologists and psychiatric social workers in the ward will lead group psychotherapy or give individual psychotherapy. . After acute symptoms have resolved, patients, families, and physicians discuss rehabilitation plans, such as going to a rehabilitation ward, day hospital, or a workshop. Through rehabilitation programs, effectively increase the sense of illness, learn independent earning ability, and improve family and social relations.

Despite the rapid development of drugs in recent years, physicians may recommend electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) for some obvious and drug-refractory mental symptoms. This ancient treatment has been improved for decades and has proven to be an effective and safe back-line treatment.

In some countries, frontal surgery is still being performed. For example, in the early 20th century, attempts were made to destroy the frontal with ice cones. However, it has been confirmed in the late 20th century that the damage to the frontal lobe is far more damaging to the brain than the treatment effect, and such an operation has disappeared in advanced countries.
