The two words cannot go together except metaphorically; you can no more have a mental 'disease' than you can have a purple idea or a wise space".

Mental "illness" does not exist, and neither does mental "health." These terms indicate only approval or disapproval of some aspect of a person's mentality (thinking, emotions, or behavior).
