You are being fooled about mental illness
It's not illness
It's not dysfunction
It's not biological
It's not medical
It's not chemical
...
It. Is. Meaningful.
5/13/2022 0 Comments A beginning...Let me begin this new blog by revealing a secret that is hiding in plain sight: The conventional mental health industry isn't about health and illness. Instead, the industry has bastardized the reputation of the medical professions in order to disguise a morality crusade. Its purpose has always been to control unwanted and distressing people. Nowhere in the process do we find actual treatment of an illness. What we find are moral judgments about the appropriateness of behaviors, thoughts, and feelings, and methods to stop them using physical, chemical, electrical, or persuasive means. This is not medicine. It is crowd control. For this reason, many professionals within that system have abandoned its medical model and try to help others in a humane and compassionate way. These professionals can be very helpful, but only if they remember the goal is to assist to the extent and in the way that person wants assistance.
