gree with the position of members here on psychology-psychiatry in that the patient has free will and can decide to change his ways and get better and that drugs don't heal. But my question is still unanswered.
   We believe that a patient can his reject disorderly thoughts or feelings but don't know why those thought and feeling come to him in the first place. If it is devil's work then why he doesn't do it to others? are metal patients specially chosen him?
  A normal man can't feel love toward a lifeless material like leather, even if he wills so. But one with a specific fetish feels like this. So the symptoms don't happen because we want them.
   I myself have a problem with a compulsion to run, I try to hide it and do this compulsion in my room with the door closed.
   If I am like others and mental illness doesn't exist, then why don't other people feel like me? If it is the devil, the it is despairing as he must be thinking of me as someone special and different from others.
