Some "mental disorders" should be laughed at.


Are we including or excluding the ones directly effected by your brain chemistry/processes? Where do we draw the line?

For some people, they can manage by gradually immersing themselves into social situations and conditioning themselves. For others it's not that simple and sometimes there is comorbitiy (the existence of other mental disorders feeding one).

Using your simpleton logic is like saying all depressed people can be treated and there should never be suicide. Or substance abuse. Or people who are "normal" than have a schizophrenic break should've been able to "get over it" with a cup of warm tea and a hug.

That's basically my whole point. There are some serious situations where the person can't help themselves but I'm not in favor of labeling everything a disorder like everyone likes to do know. Just because you think a different way and it's hard to change the way you think doesn't mean it's a disorder.

you clearly didn't read anything. I know people get emotional about this stuff and thats why it doesn't get talked about more but that doesn't exclude you from trying to understand a different viewpoint.
