Saved by the
Psychiatric Faith and here to “testify”
And
the
inmates
running
things
are
getting
crazier
all
the
time.
This
is
an
open
letter
to
the
Loons in
charge.
You
are
now
SPECIFYING
“Unspecified
Mental
Disorder”
which
goes
along
very
nicely
with
Non
Specific
Schizophrenic
Spectrum
Disorder.
That's
CRAZY.
Can you hear HOW I mean that? One
cannot
specify
the
unspecified.
It's
a
contradiction
in
terms.
Why
don't
you
know
that?
Or
DO
you
know
that,
and
are
just
telling
yourselves
that
the inferior
others
(who CAN
be blamed) won't
notice?
Doing
so
however,
allows
those
doing
it
to
take
control
of
ANYONE
they
like,
anytime
they
like
for
NO
SPECIFIC
reason.
Do
you
all
get
that?
Are
you
deluding
yourselves
that
it
won't
ever
be
used
on
you
because
YOU
aren't
“sick”?
Remember
that
claiming
you
aren't
sick
is
one
of
the
signs
that
you
ARE
sick
according
to
this
same
group
of
people
who
seem
to
be
making
sure
that
all
escape
routes
are
well
covered
of
time.
That's
what
the
DSM
is
for.
Will
the
powers
that
be,
which
are
getting
more
controlling
and
stronger
all
the
time,
be
coming
after
you
in
the
near
future?
Try
to
remember
that
the
more
you
talk
about
what
happened
to
you
in
relation
to
a
group
of
others,
the
more
likely
it
will
be
“diagnosed”
out
of
existence
and
the
more
efficient
the
mental
illness
machine
is
getting
at
doing
just
that.
The
people
who
get
put
through
this
relate
it
to
movies
and
books
like
the
Matrix,
1984,
Brave
New
World,
Groundhog
Day,
the
Truman
Show
etc.
because
it
RELATES
to
THEIR
experience.
The
fact
that
you
don't
understand
it
is
all
but
irrelevant
since
it
is
not
YOUR
experience.
You
invalidate
it
and
call
it
all
meaningless,
so
you
don't
have
to
see
it
and
won't
have
to
see
yourselves
performing
in
it.
What
the
specific
''diagnosis”
of
“Unspecified
Disorder”
does
best
is
“integrate”
a
pair
of
opposites,
in
another
version
of
“Zen-like
cuteness”
which
cancel
each
other
out,
and
which
then
creates
a
state
of
utter
meaninglessness,
which
can
then
be
filled
in
according
to
the
whims
and
desires
of
whomever
is
holding
the
power
over
the
“subject”
to
do
so.
That
one
can
use
the
meaningless
created
to
define
reality
itself
any
way
s/he
wants
to
define
it.
Why?
Because
they
have
granted
themselves
the
power
to
do
so
and
it's
all
legal.
What
this
new
wide open
diagnosis
also
does
is
create
a
split
premise,
which
creates
a
paradoxical
state,
from
which
no
escape
is
possible,
and
no
resolution
is
possible,
until,
or
unless,
those
who
started
it
admit
that
it's
wrong,
and
that
it's
also
CRAZY.
Of
course
it
is
unlikely
that
most
of
them
would
ever
do
that,
as
it
would
be
problematic
for
THEM
and
would
not
be
seen
as
in
their
own
interests
to
do
so.
With
Splitters,
as
we
now
know,
especially
the
ones
holding
all
the
concrete
power,
if
it's
not
in
their
interests,
as
perceived
BY
them,
to
admit
they
are
wrong,
they
will
gladly
allow
the
inferior
“others”,
who
are
a
different
set
of
“others”
and
not
the
same
“others”
that
the
inferior
ones
try
to
blame,
to
pay
for
their
errors.
This
will
be
done
often
while
lecturing
those
“others,”
like
they
are
naughty
children,
about
their
character
flaws
such
as
blaming
“others”,
their
perception
problems,
emotional
reactions
(inappropriate)
and
“false”
accusations.
It
doesn't
get
much
more
ironic
or
absurd
than
this
does
it?
They
say
we
are
crazy
and
we
say
they
are
crazy.
The
“difference”
is
all
in
the
perception
of
reality
and
that
has
a
whole lot
to
do
with
rules
and
expectations
around
what
it
what,
and
who
is
whom....
