The frayed ends of sanity

"Real nigga need no therapy"

--- Kendrick Lamar

Lately, I have been suspicious of my mental health. I do think that if i go to the psych, I get, at least, 5 different mental illnesses. The question is, why? I haven't killed myself (or another), I shit and piss, I do things, I can be labeled a "functioning member of society" if they wanted. But, as my thoughts is not something you see every day. Though I recognize that sometimes I might not be the most rational person in the world. But, you know. Apparently to psychiatrists there are some unwritten rules everyone should follow and if you don't follow those rules because you have another way of thinking (or you're a bearer of another worldview), well, you're mentally ill.

In my opinion, we are all schizophrenics but we don't have the diagnosis. In case you did not know, capitalism is the origin of all mental illnesses.

You know, my idea of "productivity" is very different from society's. My idea of productivity it's not, like, go to work, make your boss rich and have a shit wage. My idea of productivity is doing stuff you like. And that's it, but if you do stuff you like that does not provide money to your boss (or in the best of the cases, you) they call it "hobby" instead of "job"

And well, the solution to differences between individuals that don't agree with society's values is to have them sedated, like, methylphenidate, speed, quetiapine, or your favorite benzo. Have potentially dangerous individuals sedated is pretty effective. But what's more effective is to label individuals, giving them labels is effective so people don't take a "schizo" seriously, or they think everything a "borderline" says is insane shit and we should never listen to them but listen to "sane" persons.

I think that, without capitalism, we would not need as much benzos as we did, like, we would have much less anxiety without capitalism, and there would not be a lot of anxiety so benzos would not be needed. We could use the adhd superpower of hyperfocusing for good, but, as you're doing a hobby (nothing of value), well, then you're just a weirdo and i require you to take the goddamn meth.
