Click to View Click to View 2. First and second Laws of Psychiatry: a. Psychiatric theorem #1: Behaviour is a choice. Checklist behaviors. Determine the benefit. b. Psychiatric theorem #2: Psychotic behaviour is a solution. Determine the problem. 3. The mystery of insanity is solved when we ignore all psychiatric diagnostic labels and focus on checklisting specific behaviours associated with insanity that are identified in the Bible as sin.

The answer then becomes simple: money, escape responsibility, sympathy, selfishness, attention, control, revenge, rebellion or desire for evil etc. 4. Insanity, depression and anxiety are ... ...

8: Bible Contentment vs. Mental Illness
Contentment is a cardinal and central teaching of Christ. 2. We are commanded to be content, regardless of the life situation we find ourselves in. 3. When we lack contentment, we become anxious and depressed. 4. "Without trying to answer this question here, let me emphasize only that investing hope in religious faith is perhaps one of the best psychological investments a person can make. This is because by investing a small amount of hope in religion-especially in the Christian religions, which promise lavish gratifications and rewards of all sorts-one gets back a great deal. Few other enterprises, other than fanatical nationalisms, promise as much. The rate of return on hope invested in religion is thus much higher than on hope invested in, say, rational work-a-day pursuits. Hence, those with small capitals of hope may do best by investing their "savings" in religion. And this indeed is what they often do." (The Myth of Mental Illness, Thomas Szasz, Atheist, 1961 AD, p255) A. ... ...
