↪ Replying to @unknown

@_anith For me the concept of introvert has been helpful, because of what it is intended to mean, not what most people think it means. I am not shy, but consider myself an introvert. The easiest way for me to explain is how I need to replenish after social interactions, which drain me.

@_anith All the while I was labelled as shy as a kid, when really I was a keen observer trying to make sense of things before I engaged.

Being labelled by other people, I agree, often sucks.

@David_M_Bergman @Loukas_RS Thx! It strikes me how "Sthlm syndrome" a simple way to defer any idea of rational thinking. Instead of trying to understand the real reasoning (which may be completely rational in the context) it dismisses it with a "mental delusion" which apparently requires no explanation.

@David_M_Bergman @Loukas_RS I'll have "smarter" things to say once I've read the book ;)

@MetaMikeBiggs Will do!

@MetaMikeBiggs It's honestly so bad I'm crying.. this should be compulsory reading for all Americans... in short the bulk of mentally ill patients are in jail, deprived of competent care, because there are no other beds. Will do a writeup when I'm done but it's hard to know where to begin...

@MetaMikeBiggs My writeup will likely more focus on how many illnesses, and the rulesets for diagnosing each of them, came about through the consensus of a group of white men, with very little science to back them up.
