So-called 'SYMPTOMS' may NOT be 'symptoms', but may be profound, authentic feelings emotions and moods which are an integral part of a person's relationships to other people as well as his struggle with actualizing his authentic life.

The brain is a medically treatable organ. Thoughts, Feelings, Conduct, however, are susceptible to social, political, religious, & psychiatric control.

Are so-called 'NORMAL' people superior to people with an alleged mental disorder or disability? Is there a HIERARCHY? Do so-called 'normals' have a right to practice discrimination and abuse against those who are PERCEIVED as ranking lower in the hierarchy?

One of the forms of harm resulting from sleeping pills is memory loss. Another risk of sleeping pills, especially in the elderly, is falling and breaking bones.

By adding terms like “DISORDER,” or "SYNDROME", psychiatry creates a framework where natural variations in behavior, emotion, or cognition are redefined as pathological, often requiring intervention.

By treating individuals as objects of scientific inquiry and dismissing non-empirical aspects of humanity, POSITIVIST PSYCHIATRY risks reducing PEOPLE to mere THINGS - computer-brains with robots attached.

Far from helping, some institutions serve to hide "challenging" individuals from public view, allowing society to maintain the illusion of normalcy.

A community may appear to be a utopia, But that is because the "challenging" people have been hidden from view . The " helpers" under the guise of doing good have excluded, marginalized or even institutionalised them into places that the community pretends don't exist.

Why is a SCIENTIFIC PSYCHIATRY Dehumanising ? Science should only be for THINGS not for PEOPLE. However, the philosophy of Positivism holds differently. Positivism holds that science studies things including humanity.

Is "He's NOT NORMAL!" a medical description or an insult? Slander? A Diagnosis? Ableism? Sanism ? Racism?

Mystical thinking or discussion may appear irrational & psychotic to the uninitiated and may even lead to a psychiatric diagnosis!

Positivist psychiatry is empirical. 'Soul', 'intention', 'meaning', 'free will' and other essential facets of humanity are not empirically verifiable and therefore not admissible into scientific psychiatry and psychology. That is why psychiatry is dehumanising.

GENETICS OF "MENTAL ILLNESS" ! 🤣😜 Really! Do you think that these guys can bridge the gap from a DNA molecule to human behaviour?

I'm feeling heavy about the looming DSM-6. It's disheartening to see normal human experiences increasingly pathologized, turning natural emotions and behaviours into disorders. The corruption in the process undermines trust in mental health care. We need a system that respects

SOCIAL TOXICITY:- The Medical Model does not recognise the real, powerful and lasting effects of social toxicity. People can and do act upon each other, injure each other, and permanently undermine each other's lives.

The social origins of distress are of two kinds, 1) the face to face interaction of people, and, 2) the effect of the larger class, society, economy and politics.

Victim Blaming! "It's OK to hurt other people, because, If they're sensitive, then it's their problem"!

Psychiatric practice, rather than being a purely scientific or medical endeavor, is significantly shaped by external pressures, including cultural norms, public opinion, and economic incentives.
