The Mentally Disabled in Philippine Setting - A Legal Research

 As a mental health advocate, I made a legal research paper entitled,



THE MENTALLY DISABLED in PHILIPPINE Setting:
A Call for Equal Protection.
A Critique on the Rights and Privileges Of  Mentally Disabled Filipinos
And Their Place in Philippine Health Laws 
 

The term mentally disabilty does not only refer to the "sirang-ulo" or insane.  It covers all types of mental disorders such as schizophrenia, bipolar, major depression, anxiety disorders and addiction among others.  If you are a mental health advocate, you may download this legal research paper for your own perusal (Click Hyperlink below).  Rweet, Share by clicking the hyperlink below and Advance the rights of mentally disabled Filipinos
CHECK THE RESEARCH PAPER UPLOADED IN MY SCRIBD ACCOUNT WITH HYPERLINK BELOW:

This paper is a critique on the rights and privileges of mentally disabled Filipinos and their place in Philippine Health Laws.  The aim of this paper is to provide suggestions and recommendations and make known to all and sundry that persons with mental disabilities, have become highly prevalent and that they are real.  Considering the disease’s debilitating effects viz-a-vis other forms of illnesses, it must be given at least the same or even more, in terms of economic and insurance benefits under our health laws and aspects of education and labor. This research is also in consonance with the mission of the Philippine Psychiatric Association (PPA), among others, “to be committed to the welfare of its members and to the advancement of mental health care, education, advocacy and research in the Philippines and the global community.”
