A metaphoric and ad-hoc term for human suffering used paradoxically alongside "psychiatric disorder" and is often force applied just prior to what UN definition defines as psychiatric torture. There's no way of proving a "mental illness" but that won't stop Janet on facebook claiming you're "mentally ill" and "need treatment" AKA chemical or electrical alteration, just because you offended her primitive sense of reality and humour. Logic has never stopped a psychiatrist either.
"Well I disagree with your premise. I also possibly can not negate it! I may be gas-lighting you or engaging purely for personal gain or profit. Yes, I am probably attempting to discredit you rather than the premise or the experience by using pseudo-professional psychiatric character assassinations, and there may be no way to prove it but you sir have a mental illness"!

"I don't like your politics, you are mentally ill"

An illness that inflicts the person's mental state. Mental illnesses range widely from mild anxiety to severe schizophrenia. Depending on the severity of an illness, it can impact a person's life more than just mentally.

Other things that can be hard while mentally ill are keeping good hygiene, keeping healthy relationships, and keeping a good sleep schedule
