Studies reveal a complex interplay of traits, genes, and brain structure behind the dual diagnosis—raising new questions about how we define and treat both conditions.
Problem is, if you take the medical model away, sociey delegitimize the problem. If you’re not “clinically” depressed, then you must just be lazy. Saying it’s a “disease” is a way for it to be taken seriously, as little as it has to do with traditional medical diseases. As a result people cling to medicine as the only way they can be taken seriously.
I don’t think I’ve ever said anything negative about psychiatry to net positive upvotes.
I’m one of them!

Aw, thanks. Does Lemmy have a anti-psych/anti-therapy space?
Probably. I don’t really know.
