Must reading on this topic—the guy was brilliant and had some stunning insights:

The psychiatric profession has used “word games” to bamboozle the population.

There are physical problems with the brain—which they call “mental illness” when in fact it is a physical problem.

Then there is nonconformist thinking—which they also call “mental illness”.

By packaging the two together they weaponize the psychiatric profession into a propaganda, brainwashing and even enforcement arm of the rulers of a culture.

Thanks. Though I’ve not read his book I am familiar with his thinking and agree that mental illness is a myth. It was one of the Huxley’s who said the Biblical concept of sin together with immutable truth and moral absolutes were causes of ‘mental illness.’
