Mental Health: Acrostic Poem

M isunderstood illnesses show
E arly warning signs sadly
N eglected way too often although
T reatable with professional diagnosis
A cceptance reality by patient necessary
L ife's quality limitations become non-existence

H elpful individual follows plan treatment
E ccentric behavioral patterns soon disappear
A nxiety attacks chronic and acute no longer fear 
L imited socialization trade-off new acquaintances
T rust issues previous replacement be green light 
H appiness emotional restoration patients' facial glow.
