Mental health is a meme

[SantaTeresa]

From my experience, mental illness is just the reflection of your physical being and status, the only people in psychiatric hospitals where I was dwelling, were poor ugly schmucks that no one cares about, and the asylum was the terminus where the untouchables were sent to be hidden from the society of cool.

For 6 years I tried to cure myself from a disease that doesn't exist, which the entire medical corps admits is undetectable, like the rest of those personality disorders and whatever the fuck, but if said medical experts were completely honest, they'd start calling things by their true names, and all things from that nature would simply be described as life accidents.

I don't believe in these clusterfucks illnesses anymore, I see them as the lingering effects of poverty, failure, hate, disappointment, disillusion, exclusion, crime...

I would like to read your thoughts on the matter.

I think that often people label perfectly valid feelings towards life as being an "illness" as they don't wish to accept that life really can get awful, and isn't worth enduring for everyone. To me the true illness is when people want to force others to stay here and dismiss the suffering that the person goes through. "Happiness" is what is irrational in a world as cruel and harmful as this, I think that wishing to cease existing is a perfectly logical response. But of course if there were no so called "illnesses" such as depression to try and treat then the industry wouldn't be able to profit from people's suffering by scamming them.

I bet no doctor will ever point out the pathogen of this "illness", it's just a weakness in front rejection, I do relate to it by the way, but I'm bothered by this over diagnosing of common problems.
After years of accidents, handicaps, and life threatening neurological disorders due to "mental problems", I came to realise that these things are far away from the domain of medicine or science as a whole. Life sucks and humans suck at dealing with it even more.
