So you're denying the relevance of established medical practice, but you seem to think I can't do the same thing? If my opinion means little, then so does yours.
I merely mean to define mental illness in such a way as to demonstrate that it is a real thing, but not necessarily tied to social norms. It doesn't matter how psychiatrists define it. They are going to make certain a large number of things fall under their "mental illness" umbrella for obvious reasons. That doesn't mean that mental illness doesn't exist or can't be defined.
lol.. the same "psychiatrists" who arbitrarily voted homosexuality out of the DSM years ago. And who deem people with "non-traditionalist" as ill? lol.. all psychiatrists are a bunch of jokers, involved in a false science.
I'll have ten times more respect for a real medical discipline, like cardiology or neurology, over these fuckstains called "mental health professionals".

Loosely speaking, a disease is something which causes a person unwarranted distress and reduces their quality of life. It is a known fact that some people have hallucinations, aberrations in thought processes, unpleasant emotional states etc. Psychiatry seeks to make these problems better through a variety of therapies, both pharmacological and psychological.
I think I once heard Eric Kandel say that the general difference between neurology and psychiatry is that neurology generally deals with cases where the brain regions that are dysfunctional are known or the mechanism of dysfunction in the brain is known whereas in psychiatry the underlying problem is a lot more complex in terms of the brain and is more difficult to pin-point with precision. Correct me if I'm wrong.
lol.. So people who take drugs and see hallucinations are ill?
I dismiss the basis of psychiatry. So what if people are not "normal"? Sorry, but this is 2013, not 1813. we NOW know that normalcy is subjective, based on more advanced knowledge and inquiry. Most psychiatrists don't seem to endorse this. Well reality is no obstacle.
Incorrect. There are people who have never done drugs who still experience hallucinations. Have you never heard of schizophrenia ?
It's not about people being "normal". It's about people facing mental health issues that they themselves find impairing and want to fix.
If people wish to see hallucinations, who is to prevent them? You? All psychiatrists? So psychiatrists are the lords of society?
Normalcy is subjective. That's not taxing to comprehend.
Psychiatry is false if it cannot comprehend that.
If people wish to see hallucinations, it is entirely up to them unless they are harming people around them. Nobody is going to coerce you into seeing a psychiatrist if you wish to live with your impairment.
lol.. you seriously believe that mental health professionals endorse that? Psychiatry is a tool designed to control, admit it.
How taxing is it to comprehend that it is NOT about "normalcy" and fitting in ?
It is about people facing mental health problems that diminish their quality of life.
Right. They're all out to get you.
Normalcy is subjective. That's not taxing to comprehend.
Psychiatry is false if it cannot comprehend that.
It's not something I would put post them. They do partake in a corrupt practice.
