Sure you can.
One can test what was said against how it plays in reality.
If God gives direction in business, then look at the business to see if it flourishes or fails.
If God gives direction if wisdom, and His word look to what is say, and how it applies.
If God gives direction in family matters look at the resolution and where the family is over time.
If these things are from God then the person who receives them will be better off than when he started. In truth when one receives direction from God all aspects of life are effected, so when one is successful in all aspects and attributes these successes to God, if you believe mental illness can also be a possible explaination then it is your job to identify what specific illness that leads itself to personal and business sucess and then provide proof of this illness.
Otherwise know your whole arguement is an appeal to probability from a position of ignorance.
(If you're an idiot you might think this is what is happening)

And yes.. it really is.. because gods followers are packs of vicious dogs waiting for a signal to kill.
You misspelled Allah.
The God of the bible's followers are restrained by the bible.
