ST. PETER THE APOSTLE
CANONICAL- LITURGICAL FORUM
BY FR. GEM BANDIVAS, JCL, MBA, PhD
ANOINTING FOR THE MENTALLY ILL
Dear Father Gem: My friend is a cancer survivor. She
was cleared of the disease about a year ago.
Unfortunately, she now suffers an anxiety/panic
disorder, always living in fear that the cancer might
return. Last month, we visited a Catholic church in
Texas where a special anointing of the sick was
being held. However, the priest who was doing the
anointing announced that it was only for those who
are truly ill and/or with a life-threatening illness. My
friend was truly upset and didnt know whether she
would receive the anointing or not. Could someone
who has mental problems/disorders receive the
Sacrament of Anointing of the Sick? I am referring to
people who battle an illness such as anxiety/panic
disorder, bipolar, depression, schizophrenia, etc. I
would think that these types of illness are not in and
of themselves necessarily life-threatening but they
could be and could lead to life-threatening
situations. Please enlighten us on this issue. Thanks.
Beth, Parishioner
Dear Beth: At the beginning of each quarter, we, at St.
Peters, normally schedule a Mass where we also
administer the Sacrament of Anointing. Last month, April
19th, when we had our Anointing Mass, I encouraged all
those who were ill (whether physically or mentally) to
come forward and receive the Sacrament. Well, of course,
I was referring to those who have reached the age of
reason, that is, 7 years old and above (and as mentioned
and clarified in our Bulletin Article of May 21st).
In general, the special grace of the Sacrament of
the Anointing of the Sick has as its effects:
The uniting of the sick person to the passion of
Christ, for his own good and that of the whole Church;
The strengthening, peace, and courage to endure in
a Christian manner the sufferings of illness or old age;
The forgiveness of sins, if the sick person was not
able to obtain it through the sacrament of penance;
The restoration of health, if it is conducive to the
salvation of his soul; and The preparation for passing
over to eternal life. (Catechism of the Catholic Church,
No. 1532)
Historically, however, the Church has not
administered this sacrament for less serious illnesses,
even if chronic. Until relatively recently, mental illnesses
were not usually considered as subjects for anointing.
HENDERSON, NV Pg.5
Nowadays, however, the Sacrament of the Sick is
reserved for serious (but not necessarily life- threatening)
physical illness which significantly affects ones health
and well-being. It can also be administered before a
serious operation or one that requires complete sedation,
even if the underlying condition is not in itself life-
threatening. It may also be administered to those over 65
if notably weakened, even if they do not suffer from any
particular illness.
Medical science has discovered that some hitherto
mental illnesses are in fact symptoms of physical
imbalances. For example, the dementia associated with
Alzheimers is apparently mental, but it is also a fatal,
and still incurable, disease.
Even if the serious mental illness is not caused by
known physical phenomena, No. 53 of the introduction to
Pastoral Care of the Sick (PCS): Rites of Anointing and
Viaticum opens up the possibility of the use the
sacrament in such cases. To wit: Some types of mental
sickness are now classified as serious. Those who are
judged to have a serious mental illness and who would
be strengthened by the sacrament may be anointed. The
anointing may be repeated in accordance with the
conditions for other kinds of severe illness.
The minister should proceed with some caution
with respect to anointing for mental illness. There is no
clear-cut standard to determine seriousness. For this
reason, such situations should be handled on a case-by-
case basis and in consultation with the persons
physician. As stated in PCS, No. 8: A prudent or
reasonably sure judgment, without scruple, is sufficient
for deciding on the seriousness of an illness. If necessary
a doctor may be consulted.
Also Pastoral Care of the Sick, No. 52 states:
Those who receive this sacrament in the faith of the
Church will find it a true sign of comfort and support in
time of trial. It will work to overcome the sickness if this is
Gods will.
Finally, while it is possible that anxiety and similar
mental strains could reach a stage of seriousness that
would warrant anointing, it is also important to recall that
the Churchs habitual sources of grace such as frequent
recourse to the sacraments of reconciliation and
Eucharist, closeness to the Blessed Mother, as well as
prayer and seeking spiritual guidance are of great benefit
in helping us to overcome these burdens or at least bear
patiently the trials permitted by God.
