Thought for the day ... Hysteria is a an example of mental ill health ... Hysteria has been normalised in society by the mass media ... So being hysterical is no longer mental ill health but reasonable behaviour ... The Psychiatrists textbook, the DSM ( diagnostic and statistical manual ) is NOT about mental health ... it is about cataloguing behaviours and how to evaluate normal ... It is a managemnt tool, not a guide to health ... This is very IMPORTANT for you to understand ... Psychiatry still approcahes the idea of mental health as what is statistically normal, as opposed to what is actually healthy ! This is why the simple question what is mental health? is never answered ... ( the answer is resilience to trauma ) This has led to a public perception of malleability and gullibility in understanding themselves ... It is about reinforcing tribal power to corrupt the individual ... That which is statistically normal ( common) is NOT a guide to health !!! This what happens when you allow statistics to be mis-represented as facts !
