Bought myself an interesting textbook on abnormal psychology. First chapter defines normal/abnormal
So what is abnormal?
Any behaviour that:
Goes against cultural norms
Causes suffering to person
Is interfering with functioning
Indicates mental illness
Is unusual
So what is normal is opposite of that - culture norm
Not unusual
Not causing suffering
Not diagnosed mental illness
Not interfering with functioning
Just thought I’d share as someone raised the issue on here
