I asked my pdoc if she thought pd. Sz. Is an actual illness

I told her I’m dealing with quite a few non-believers on Facebook
She said the people who wrote the DSM are very smart and they know more than people on FB.
I agreeded though I’ve never read it.
I also told her FB users say all these mass shooters were on psych meds
She said violence has esculated in society
It’s still rare with those with a diagnosis.

@Daze welcome back. Please don’t start with conspiracies until after Christmas. We are making a commitment to keep as few people suspended over the holiday as we can. We need your help with that. Trust your doctor. Paranoid schizophrenia is one of the oldest documented mental illnesses in the world. We are very fortunate to live in a country and time when we can receive treatment in our community, rather than being locked in institutions or abandoned into the woods.

I don’t typically start them myself

I just respond to others who do
I notice who gets suspended or not.
