Attracta I dont know anything about a Jellink curve. Im not sure what you are reading.
You said you believe alcohol needs to go before you can assess a persons mental health. In theory I agree with you but some people are too sick to stop drinking without the help of psych meds.
I was sectioned under the mental heath act. Obviously they were going to treat my mental illness when they had me in there. Once I got stable I was able to go back and look at my drinking.
That way was best for me.
