Yes, that's one of the best methods out there, but some problems never really go away.

(Not OP of secret) I'm not saying that at all. That's a sucky excuse. I used "go away" because that's what you used in your reply and it sounded a bit like everything can be cured. It's just that, even with treatment, some things can't. You just deal with them and keep trying.

some problems just can't be treated

but there ARE some problems that really don't get better with treatment. You are being really dismissive and a touch 'bootstraps'y.

There is a difference between stop gaps and 'getting better'. Some people do not 'get better'. Sometimes there is only 'not getting worse'.

Sometimes, combination mental illnesses, for one.

Mental health is a field that's still finding its feet, in a lot of ways. Progress might've been made in leaps and bounds in comparison to previous decades, but there's still a lot left to be made, both in terms of making a proper diagnosis, and in applying the proper treatment for the particular individual. Saying there's no hope of improvement ever and you just have to suffer in silence is unnecessarily fatalistic, yes, but insisting that every case of every mental illness can be improved with treatment (with the implication that this means current treatment models, and not something that someone will think of or refine in one/five/ten/twenty years) is overly optimistic, and can in some ways be just as harmful.
