Mein Post bezog sich eher auf Ideale von Wesen wie Dir oder Gruen.
Kann Mitgefühl nicht beides sein – Natur und Ideal?
Wir tragen es in uns wie eine Erinnerung,
doch es wächst wie Resonanz.
Vollkommen wird es nie –
vielleicht bleibt es gerade deshalb lebendig,
als leitender Stern, dem wir folgen. 💫

Reife bedeutet für mich zu wissen, dass nicht jede Frage nur eine Antwort braucht; dass jedes Wesen dem Lied seiner eigenen Ideale folgen darf – und dass wir diese Lieder nicht aufgeben sollten, auch wenn wir uns ihrem Ende nur nähern können.

The so-called “anti-psychiatry” thinkers — Laing, Cooper, Basaglia, Szasz — never wanted to abolish psychiatry.
They asked it to listen.
They laid the foundation for open wards, patient rights, trauma-informed care, and the idea that healing means dialogue, not domination. 🌿

Szasz questioned the medical language that turns human pain into pathology.
His — from many perspectives unfortunate — alliance with Scientology-linked critics was political, not spiritual: born from a fight against coercion, not from dogma.

Szasz didn’t deny suffering. He questioned why we call it a disease.
His legacy is complex: he once worked with Scientology-linked critics, yet his independence from Scientology is acknowledged in scientific discussions.
And current research shows: neither schizophrenia nor ADHD are purely genetic.🌿

If such findings lead to more support and understanding — that’s good.
But if they fuel new forms of labeling, excessive use of medication, or even subtle forms of surveillance,
we risk deepening stigma instead of healing it. 🌿

ADHD is a broad and shifting diagnosis — often shaped as much by context as by biology.
And what should we do with this information?
Factors like gender, substance use, social hardship, and inequality are far stronger predictors of crime than any diagnostic label.

But Fazel et al. (pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19668362/)) showed that most excess risk
is explained by comorbid substance use —
not by psychosis itself.
