Taboo. If there is a word that still defines the irregularities in mental health, it is that. Social Taboo, when society still confuses any psychiatric disorder with madness, and personal taboo, when the same patient feels ashamed to communicate his symptoms, go to the psychologist/psychiatrist, assume his condition and, consequently, follow the appropriate treatment that could avoid the development of the anomalous signs that it presents.

Ironically, we live in the "stress era"; our frantic lifestyles and the genetic predisposition of many translate into a drastic and pitiful increase of emotional/psychological disorders: anxiety, panic attacks, depression, schizophrenia, attention deficit and an infinite etcetera. At this rate, the "rare" will be those who suffer no mental illness... The taboo would remain there only to make the picture worse.

If we mix all this with the crime scene, we would be talking about the correlation between mental health and the culpability of a crime, which reflects a greater severity. In such circumstances, health professionals, lawyers and judges have the duty and the right to proceed.

Knowing the above, the questions corresponding to this debate are the following:

• If someone with mental/emotional problems/illnesses/disorders commits a crime, should their punishment be equivalent to the one that belongs to a "normal person"?

• Is the rehabilitation applicable to all criminals of this type? For example, would a psychopath have the same chance of being rehabilitated as a schizophrenic patient?

• Previously, we pointed lifestyle, stress and genetic predisposition as the main causes of mental and emotional disorders; however, there are individuals who experience post-traumatic emotional crisis. In this sense, if a rapist get to such this point because, being a child, someone also sexually abused him, would such this story justify what he has done?

• Do you think that having received professional attention in time, such rapist would have overcome his trauma without hurting others?

• If you answer affirmatively to the previous question, what types of campaigns can be executed to put a stop to the disinformation that revolves around the psychological/emotional problems in general and their potential consequences?
