Your definition of mental illness is ridiculous. Mental illness has plagued humanity far before the advent of your so-called 'producer/consumer" mentality. And while in earlier times they could not characterize it they did document it. It has not changed, the same illness of old plague us still. And while I appreciate you devious argument about mental health is fallacious. Logically flawed. But nice try.
The DSM outlines a set of criteria and conditonal parameters which aid in diagnosis. It characterises and describes conditions. This is not a cookbook, the work of julia child now that's a cookbook - a damn fine one too.
You seem to have scientologist leanings regarding Psychiatry. Those guys are wackos
This has become a futile discussion. You are imprisoned by irrationality, in a dungeon of fear - but you are your own warden. Free yourself, embrace reason, escape your mental darkness and come into the light. It will not burn.
