I'd like to suggest a new disorder:

#375 Compulsive Disorder Classification Disorder--The obsessive urge to classify every human behavior as a mental disorder.

"In the Soviet Union, psychiatry was used for punitive purposes. Psychiatric hospitals were often used by the authorities as prisons in order to isolate political prisoners from the rest of society, discredit their ideas, and break them physically and mentally; as such they were considered a form of torture."

Dummies. Bitterness is a form if the victim posture, a well-known expression of anger cloaked in righteousness.

The mental ailment is described is a pathological reaction to one negative life event like conflict at work, being laid off, divorce, ailment or separation in which the victim views the event as unjust and a violation of his basic belief and values.

Gee, welcome to a thing called a life.

Everybody at one time has experienced these things in one form or another.

It used to be considered character building to experience the rough and tumble events in life, but now we are just poor pathetic victims

this is like the episode of the tv series “The Prisoner”.

Perhaps the APA should declare “unmutual” a criminal mental disease.

It is episode 12, “A Change of Mind” for anyone who is interested, it can be watched for free here: http://www.amctv.com/videos/the-prisoner-1960s-video/

First we have federal thought crime legislation, now dissent is a mental dissease. How very USSR.
