It’s if you see a differentiation between “mental illness” and “mental disorder”. It makes sense that “mental illness” can be something which is detrimental to health or debilitating (like anything that gives a significantly warped and unreasonable perception of reality) and that may be non-lifelong/non-chronic, while “mental disorder/disability” is exclusively neurological differences that are lifelong/chronic and usually apparent during development (Autism, ADHD, mood & anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, etc.), imo.
It’s like how “illness” can refer to a spread disease or sickness and isn’t just disabilities. I see no reason to separate physical and mental illness from each other. Same with disorders. They’re just illness and disorder/disability.
I don’t see how that would work. I was overt religious and left. Did I suddenly go from insane to sane?
Why not? Illnesses can be cured.
I guess.
But doesn’t necessarily mean that you were insane…
Recovery is a process! Good for you!
Thanks, praise Satan.
Have you heard the good news? Turns out we are a bunch of soulless apes that figured out fire and atomic bombs.
Much better to live life awake in sunlight then as a slave in the dark, waiting for a heaven that never comes.

I think I see what you mean.
