Why is i that no body wants to have a single thought of their own? Sheep following each other round, chasing each other's tails in a circle. Corying what each other do just to be part of a group. I hate that. I don't want to be like anyone or anyone to be like me.

Call me close minded? I'm very open minded. But I hate hipocrits. I hate people who think they're open minded but then they try to force their own views onto others. Or won't even listen to another's thoughts. Especially when their own thoughts are really that of another.

Maybe what I'm about to write is close minded, or seems to be. But this is my thoughts. And I don't expect anyone to really understand them or to even agree with them. If you don't want to know what I think, then piss off now. I know that others believe differently to me, and that's their will and their right. No one in this world is exactly the same and so we all think differently, or rather most of us do, aside from the sheep that I have mentioned with a few in mind that I actually know.

How can you use the terms for something when you don't believe in the meaning behind the terms? How can you justify a person, say Hitler who killed millions of people, as not being evil? How can you say that someone, who literally can't control their behaviour because of some chemical imbalance in the brain not to have a mental illness? What if the only way to help them is to give them a tablet that reduces the imbalance? Wouldn't it be better than to put them somewhere where they couldn't hurt anyone around them or hurt themselves? Or would you prefer to use neither method and just let them harm all around them both mentally and physically?

By that logic it's like saying that it's better to have 10 people in hospital for the sake of keeping 1 out. Or having 50 people dead and counting for the sake of keeping one serial killer out of jail.

Maybe it's not necissarily evil and it's not insane and it's not their fault. But it still doesn't change the fact that they are a threat to us. And so sometimes we need to be protected from them.

Do you believe in a heart disease? If so, then how can you not believe in a brain disease? A sickness to the brain is the same as a sickness to any other part of the body. You can't say that if everyone had cancer it'd be normal. Cancer is a fucking killer, just like heart diseases can be, just like a brain sickness can be. Ot doesn' matter that they don't work in the same way.

Insanity is different to a mental sickness. A mental sickness is something to do with the brain that is unhealthy or damaged or makes a person develope mentally slower than they should. Insanity doesn't necissarily exist, I understand that. Just because a person isn't "normal" doesnt mean they are insane.Who really decides what is "normal"? People always ask that. They say "if everyone was insane then it'd be normal". But the fact is that not everyone is insane. Humans, animals, everything is supposed to develope in a certain way...its called growing and evolving. That is how it is.

"What if..." people should stop living in the what "if" and start living in the what "is". Normal is what is supposed to be. Not what it could be. If everyone was insane and the people who were sane was a rareity, then the same question would be asked, just in reverse.

I know, like I said, maybe it seems a bit close minded. I understand that some people don't believe in insanity. But I do. That's just me, I'm not trying to make everyone believe the same as me. I understand this. But I just don't see how people cannot believe in a mental sickness or brain damage. Because they're just like any other sickness, or damage. You can't make liver damage away by not believing in it, or by saying "if everyone had it then it'd be normal." I just can't seem to understand that. And I guess if that makes you think I'm thick or close minded, then you just go right ahead and believe that. On my part, I think some people, maybe some who read this and could probably guess that I'm talking about them, I think they are close minded. I believe that they only think the way they do because of other people. But like I said, this is just my perception.
