i have seen that the next one they are coming up with is mild depression

people you need to stop allowing your experiences to pathologized
these so called diagnosises are becoming an excuse for people to not to take personal responsiblity for themselves(please note i am not calling aspergers not taking responsiblity for ones self, aspergers is a nuerologic syndrome that requires proffesional assistance0

Saying that mild depression and social anxiety aren't real are no different than saying that Aspergers isn't real. They are all neurological disorders. What would you say if I told you Aspergers wasn't real? You would say that you know it is because you have it. Well guess what? I have both social anxiety and mild derpression, and let me tell you, they are definately real and completely legitimate. And uncontrolable. It has nothing to do with responsibility. Responsibility is totally and completely irrelevant. Nobody wants to be like that. People in the old days didn't "have it" because it wasn't discovered and given a name yet, not because it doesn't exist. If it was all about making money, doctors would have tried to make me, and other people, take medicine for it. You seemed to have looked past that point. Probably because it proves you wrong. Yeah, of course there are some people who try to make money off of the medicine, but people do that with everything. It seems you are the one "pathologized" by your experience at the pharmacy. (which I might add sounds fake anyway. People wouldn't have, and especially leave, such papers out for people to see. That would ruin their "plan".)
By the way: "Pathologize" isn't a word. You're probably thinking of "paralogize".
pathologize is a word
http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/pathologize
I know what im talking about. I can link you the articles showing that chemical imbalance is a lot a hooey. And no it does "prove me wrong". Let me explain how mental disorders come into existance. The big pharma says,"hey we need a new market for our drug. They then go
to the apa, who are a bunch of racist classist sexist ageist athiest men,which gets 3/4 of its funding from big pharma, who then sit together in a room and vote random behavioral and emotional traits into a disease. Nothing is proven. Big pharma then goes, with thier obediant think tanks and government agencies to promote the heck out it and convince people they have a disease and need for a drug.
And no personal responsiblity is not irrelavant. To many people think they can swallow a magic pill rather than excercise proper self care in terms of eating the right diet, learning stress management and not forcing themselves into stressfull life styles, having the proper philosophical outlook, and getting checked for chronic medical conditions like hypothyroid.
If you think the standard american diet and the standard american lifestyle are normal states of affair you need to think again.
Sometimes things like depression can symptons of something else such allegeries, nutrient defencies, toxic build ups, and certain cronic medical conditions, but again these things are controllable.
You also cant have a disease that does not exist in other countries. For example: up till recent years the people of japan never had any real concept of depression. They didnt have a word for it, because the japanese diet and culture were well suited to mental wellbeing. It was only
until the us pharamacueitical companies decided they were going to convince the japanase that they had a disease they most assuradly did not have, and even invented a word.
and dont go around calling people ignorant because they have a differing view than your own.
as for the paper detailing the invention of s.a.d it took hours on of researching, not stumbling across it at the pharmacy
This is about fact, not just different views, so yeah. I will call you ignorant.
Anyway, I will try this again. Whether there is a name for it or not, people still have the disorders. They just aren't named. They still have the symptoms. Still feel the same way. People don't magically get disorders because the "pharma" wants them to. They have them already. The pharmacy just takes advantage of it.
About the bold. Yeah. Thanks for admitting it.
"who are a bunch of racist classist sexist ageist athiest men" What does that have to do with it?
"Sometimes things like depression can symptons of something else such allegeries, nutrient defencies, toxic build ups, and certain cronic medical conditions, but again these things are controllable"
Keyword: sometimes. And what the hell do you think I am talking about? Those "buildups" and "nutrient defencies" can cause it? Are you admitting that it's real now? It doesn't matter where it came from. People have it and that's all that matters. It doesn't matter if it's controllable or not. What matters is that those things can cause it. They cause a physical reaction, in this case, depression. Something that isn't real wouldn't be there at all if you haven't caught on yet.
You can't have a disease that doesn't exist in other countries? That is dumbest thing you have said yet. Bravo.
And I don't know where you come from, but here in California, pathologize isn't a word. At least it wasn't two days ago when I looked it up.

your insulting me but yet to having disprove anything. The psychiatric system is based on nothing more than symantics, so yeah it about views. Something like depression can be a symmpton but it never a disease certainly not a disease of the brain. THe point about the apa being racist sexist classist ageist athiests is that the whole system is biased. Your still confusing the subjective experience people have for the objective made up syndrome. I never said people dont have subjective experiences but what do say is that these "diseases" are attempts to pathologize normal subjective human experiences wich are extremely dependant on cultural values.
