1 The relationship between financial and mental illness

Mental illness and financial management are strongly linked. Experiencing a financial
stresses can lead to the occurrence of mental illness and also the other way around. Greater
financial stress predicted greater anxiety, depression and poorer global mental health at baseline
(Thomas, Peter, Ron, & Megan, 2017). However, those who are well off are not all mentally well,
and all those who are less fortunate are not depressed or anxious. The way we view our financial
situation may impact our mental health. Even someone who is consistently paying off their debts
may have constant feelings of mental and emotional distress around personal finances. Moreover,
among university students that have critical financial problems are worst likely to get mental health
problem. For example, an escalation in stressful events such as failed in the examination, financial
worries related to student’s loans or forced to search a part-time job to help covering the costs of
expensive textbooks or other course materials, and for first year students, moving into unknown
environments may result in the development of psychiatric symptoms.

2.4.2 The relationship between health and mental illness

Health problem also may cause mental illness. Big health problem such as diabetes, heart
disease, arthritis, kidney disease, HIV/AIDS, lupus, and multiple sclerosis that usually hard or
unable to cure may affect the mental health. Children and adolescents that who has chronic health
conditions and many experience mental health problems related to their conditions (Katherine
Aparicio, 2017). People with other chronic medical conditions have a higher risk of mental illness
because they apparently could not accept the fact of their condition that obviously have a low
percentage to cure. Mental illness is depends on person’s will to recover with the problem that they
have. When a person feel that they are unable to manage or control changes caused by health
problem such as cancer they are in distress. There are many type of mental illness. The common
type is depression, anxiety disorders, panic attacks and others. According to National Institute of
Mental Health, having a chronic illness can trigger what is known as clinically significant
depression, a potentially serious but treatable illness itself.
2.4.3 The relationship between social and mental illness

Social is a word that refers to community-related issues. Nowadays student faced many
stresses comes from a variety of sources that have a major impact on their psychosocial adjustment
and academic performance in school. These stressful events and their consequences on the quality
of life and academic success are particularly significant among low-income and ethnic minority
people. Most aspects of mental illness are influenced by social factors such as gender, social class,
race and ethnicity, and household patterns and social institutions such as disability and social
security systems, labor markets, and health care organizations. The capacity to cope effectively
with growing numbers of persons with mental illness and dementia depend substantially on the
social arrangements affecting family, work, income support and medical care. Mental illness
beyond a certain level if not controlled will create various problems for each individual (Romas
and Sharma, 2004). Usually, mental illness can be experienced in many situations such as
loneliness, lack of sleep, anxiety, high anxiety, and physiological symptoms as a result of an event
occurring (Mushtaq and Shoib, 2014).
