I know many therapists that work within the framework of these manuals and DSM's. I consider most to be 'prostitutes of Babylon'. And I believe they to be somewhat cursed, for leading a blind man down the wrong path...
And if the problem/condition is not authentic to you.... but rather endemic within your culture? If society seems like a bunch of hicks, or many groups/forums/community backdrops seem to be preoccupied with silver back gorilla's fighting for domination?
Most gorilla's get on with gathering fruit, and leave the silver backs to fight it out. Unless your a secret closet wannabe silver back...he he he
Acute perception doesn't make you crazy. But it can drive you crazy if you let it. But usually because you are treated badly for stating:
