I have not deeply unpacked this, but I sort of just assume that the & #39;mental illness industry& #39; is fundamentally inverted and is harming more than it is helping

Because, in my exp, the mentally ill seem to be primarily suffering from an issue regarding self-image and how they..
literally perceive themselves, because all the thinking we do is attached to our ego/what we identify as

So if you think you are ill, your thinking will often become sickly and will align with your (false) self-identification

Why would we, then, add more painful labels to..
their already-chaotic-minds and already-insecure-perspectives of themselves/reality

I am not sure what the solution would be, as we sort of have to use labels to be able to exist in a world of labels

But the labels were always wrong

Bc no subjective label is ever & #39;true& #39;.

Like, what?

"Oh. Him? Yeah. He& #39;s a schizophrenic. + generalized anxiety disorder. He& #39;s just so mentally ill"

Bro, that & #39;schizo& #39; was dropped on his head as a baby, had an alcoholic father, and ate processed food most his life

HE isn& #39;t schizo

His body BECAME schizo

HE is pure.
We could try to avoid teaching these & #39;mentally ill& #39; to continue victimizing themselves with their false self-perception, by providing them with labels that act as methods of healing

Mentally ill? No

You& #39;re simply & #39;spiritually confused& #39;

New labels, new diet, no pills, new life.
Maybe this tweet is a reach, with an entirely new way of perceiving this kind of thing..

But it felt worth sharing.
