Everyone has hangups, but not all hangups are illnesses.
The trend seems to be that everyone deserves a life of perfection,
that humans cannot tolerate stress. It’s why I think the national motto should be changed from “In God We Trust,”
to “You Owe Me an Apology.”

“Produced exclusively by the American Psychiatric Association, the DSM provides physicians with a handy checklist of mental illnesses. Simply fit a patient into a category and a diagnosis follows, complete with treatment and prescribed medication, all approved by insurers and the federal Medicare bureaucracy.”

This is Obamacare. An ever expanding computer database of all people and all ‘illnesses’. Just enter in the symptoms and out pops the treatment.

More often than not its what you’re already putting in your body that makes you feel bad not the need to take something else to cope.

People eat and drink cr@p.

For thousands of years man ate what he grew or killed. Not so much now.

A case where rocket science isn’t needed

or 3) devoting excessive time and energy to symptoms or health concerns.
= = =

Old retired guys around here ride their bicycles about 20 miles everyday.

That is excessive time and energy spent on their health.

They are crazy.

Everyone, that is, EXCEPT transgenders. And pedophiles. They're perfectly "normal".

Unless, of course, you’re on the LGBWTFOMGBBQ spectrum, in which case, you’re completely normal (and anyone who says otherwise is double-secret crazy and should be locked up).

Some of the worst of these fraudulent disorders are “Can’t do math problems” and “Drinks too much coffee.” But my all time favorite is “Disagrees with the doctor’s treatment plan”.

Diane Sawyer to Charles Manson: “Are you crazy?”
Charlie : “Me? Crazy? Back in my day, crazy meant something. Today, EVERYBODY is crazy!!”
