"It's a condition and not a choice!"
Depression and Anxiety (Link).
This org's "channel" chose to block my comment ("If that is the case, how can he be helped?") in reply to the one above about this young man. Fair enuff. Maybe I was too cheeky in the end.
The channel managers did not have Citizens Sofa Aversion Disorder - they made the choice to deliberately block me.
My contention is that in the case of the chap here referred to - his so-called "condition" is ultimately in some way his choice.
Generally speaking, my contention is that the opposite to the headline comment above is the case :-
ID EST :
"It is a choice and cannot be a "condition"."
The belief that our behaviours and feelings are beyond our own control is a highly damaging falsehood.
Obviously so.
Does he have to look in the newspaper every morning to see what the DepressionAndAnxiety Forecast is? - like looking for the Pollen Count or the Meteorology/Weather forecast?
Do I mean to imply this chap is "malingering" in some way? Whatever that means....
Not at all. I merely mean that usually such stresses have a cause and don't just fall from the sky so to speak.
If CBT is used to challenge negative thorts or feelings well then there is a contradiction since the ideology of "mental illness" says that this man has a "condition" which makes such things inevitable.
So the mere ideology is damaging and not just the possible "treatments" which for ANYONE can include imprisonment etc.
This option should NEVER be available. The people who enforce options like this are wicked criminals.
This man IMO needs defending from them. As do we all.
"Concentration camps are not reformed they are only abolished."
