I recently came across the work of Bonnie Burstow.
Nowadays the world at large, employ a trauma frame to understand people’s troubles. What is good about psychiatry when you consider that the majority of times psychiatry itself further traumatizes people. Psychatry is in a way the McDonalidazation of Pain.

Psychology as a whole is mostly useless. It's like economics, existing more to justify what already exists instead of helping to make the world better.

I guess you're both familiar with the work of R.D.Lang ?
I recently thought to myself, that there is strange connection between the work of Laing and the work of Stoicism. In plain words R.D.Laing said it is not your chemistry that makes you sick. It is the outside world that fucks you up. Stoicism as a whole tries to seperate the outside from the inside as harsh as possible. So you literally an entity. Isn't that more promising then changing the society ?
