Guten Morgen Sasch! Ich wünsche Dir auch ein schönes und möglichst stressfreies Wochenende! 💚🫂☕✨

Mein Post bezog sich eher auf Ideale von Wesen wie Dir oder Gruen.
Kann Mitgefühl nicht beides sein – Natur und Ideal?
Wir tragen es in uns wie eine Erinnerung,
doch es wächst wie Resonanz.
Vollkommen wird es nie –
vielleicht bleibt es gerade deshalb lebendig,
als leitender Stern, dem wir folgen. 💫

Und wenn wir unterwegs nicht vergessen, auf das Lied der anderen zu hören, beginnen wir vielleicht gemeinsam zu schwingen. 💫

Reife bedeutet für mich zu wissen, dass nicht jede Frage nur eine Antwort braucht; dass jedes Wesen dem Lied seiner eigenen Ideale folgen darf – und dass wir diese Lieder nicht aufgeben sollten, auch wenn wir uns ihrem Ende nur nähern können.

The so-called “anti-psychiatry” thinkers — Laing, Cooper, Basaglia, Szasz — never wanted to abolish psychiatry.
They asked it to listen.
They laid the foundation for open wards, patient rights, trauma-informed care, and the idea that healing means dialogue, not domination. 🌿

Szasz questioned the medical language that turns human pain into pathology.
His — from many perspectives unfortunate — alliance with Scientology-linked critics was political, not spiritual: born from a fight against coercion, not from dogma.

Szasz didn’t deny suffering. He questioned why we call it a disease.
His legacy is complex: he once worked with Scientology-linked critics, yet his independence from Scientology is acknowledged in scientific discussions.
And current research shows: neither schizophrenia nor ADHD are purely genetic.🌿

If such findings lead to more support and understanding — that’s good.

But if they fuel new forms of labeling, excessive use of medication, or even subtle forms of surveillance,
we risk deepening stigma instead of healing it. 🌿

ADHD is a broad and shifting diagnosis — often shaped as much by context as by biology.

And what should we do with this information?

Factors like gender, substance use, social hardship, and inequality are far stronger predictors of crime than any diagnostic label.

🧵PS 1/3
One more note — a recent study links ADHD diagnoses and criminal convictions within families
(Biol. Psychiatry, 2025 — (www.biologicalpsychiatryjournal.com/article/S000... ).

But we must pause and ask: What do we actually do with this knowledge?

Let science look deeper into the brain —
but let us look deeper into each other,
into the spirit of our shared humanity.
Only together will we understand
what truly makes and mends a mind. 🌿

I’m not against biology or neuroscience
in psychiatry.
I’m against forgetting what it means to be human.
Against the overuse of medication.
Healing happens between people —
inside the soul, through learning, action,
and resonance between us —
not only between neurons in a single brain.

🧵10/12
If biology and neuroscience
become the whole story of psychiatry,
the danger is subtle:
when we speak only of molecules,
we might learn to fix chemistry and structures
back to “normal,”
while forgetting how to comfort the soul
whose pain still lingers. 🌿

🧵9/12
Meanwhile, molecular psychiatry expands rapidly —
mapping receptors, synapses, and genetic signatures.
This research can help.
But if we let it dominate the narrative,
we risk replacing understanding with measurement.

And there’s another dimension: investigative reporting (see The Guardian, Oct 2024) shows how ‘race science’ networks exploit genetics to promote eugenics and crime-biology narratives. (www.theguardian.com/world/2024/o...)

🧵7/12
There is even a growing interest in molecular bases of criminal behavior — genetics, neurotransmitters, epigenetics.
but, as Undark Magazine points out, this research re-awakens a racist past of biology-driven crime theories. undark.org/2023/01/25/c...

🧵6/12
There’s another side to this:
Studies (www.frontiersin.org/journals/psy...)
show that people with severe mental illness
are far more likely to be victims of violence than perpetrators.

They face stigma, poverty, exclusion —
and still, the story we tell
is one of fear instead of protection.

🧵5/12
Violence?

Often blamed on “illness” — especially in relation to diagnoses like psychosis.

But Fazel et al. (pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19668362/)) showed that most excess risk
is explained by comorbid substance use —
not by psychosis itself.

Context changes everything.
