>> Psychiatry possesses an inherent capacity for abuse that is greater than in other areas of medicine.

I abhor scientology, but I share their hatred for psychiatry; they at least got THAT one very right.

[Girlene]

That’s just crazy.

[Georgia Girl 2]

If that mental illness is fear the govt is after you then yes I could agree with that theory. :-)

” scratching initials and obscenities into the antique desk.”...
The next childish president will put,”Obama has” in front of the initials-B.O.

[Rusty0604]

emotions=moods? It is natural for people to get temporarily depressed over some life events or to get angry, etc. It seems as though they are redefining being human to mental illness. They want zombies.

[SubMareener]

Yes! Nearly 50% are Liberal/Progressives and that IS a mental disease!

[Proud2BeRight]

Proof: 50% are Democrats.

AMERICAN LIBERALISM / EUROPEAN SOCIAL FABIANISM,
is a lifelong curse.
the only cure: rational thought/intelligent
thinking skills..(mentally) growing up
or getting mugged by one of their ilk.

I know I have obsessive compulsive disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder ...

[Rusty0604]

Reminds me of the outgoing Clinton people taking the “W” off the keyboards.

[babble-on]

The problem is the proliferation of mental health diagnoses. Basically, your personality is now just the manifestations of your various mental illnesses, and the only people judged “mentally healthy” are those too boring to have personalities.

[Rocky]

Half the voters voted for Obama. They are stating the obvious.

[Java4Jay]

What is CDC definition of mentally ill?

[TribalPrincess2U]

That’s the plan!

[Rusty0604]

Well stated!

[Truth29]

"I know I have obsessive compulsive disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder ..."

Obama must go, Obama must go, Obama must go ...

CDC definition http://www.cdc.gov/mentalhealth/basics/mental-illness.htm

Mental Illness
Mental illnesses refer to disorders generally characterized by dysregulation of mood, thought, and/or behavior, as recognized by the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual, 4th edition, of the American Psychiatric Association (DSM-IV). Mood disorders are among the most pervasive of all mental disorders and include major depression, in which the individual commonly reports feeling, for a time period of two weeks or more, sad or blue, uninterested in things previously of interest, psychomotor retardation or agitation, and increased or decreased appetite since the depressive episode ensued.

It’s called liberalism.

[who knows what evil?]

Mental illness = democrat. We are already at 50%.

[tacticalogic]

I’d say 47% of them are already there.
