"What we call 'normal' is a product of repression, denial, splitting, projection, introjection and other forms of destructive action on experience. It is radically estranged from the structure of being. The more one sees this, the more senseless it is to continue with generalized descriptions of supposedly specifically schizoid, schizophrenic, hysterical 'mechanisms.' There are forms of alienation that are relatively strange to statistically 'normal' forms of alienation. The 'normally' alienated person, by reason of the fact that he acts more or less like everyone else, is taken to be sane. Other forms of alienation that are out of step with the prevailing state of alienation are those that are labeled by the 'formal' majority as bad or mad."

Psykiatrisk tvang skal nedbringe psykiatrisk tvang

Nyt er jo hverken emnet eller denne artikel om det. Men da jeg tilfældigvis faldt over den i går, syntes jeg faktisk, den, respektive Jakob Axel Nielsen, var så hylende morsom, at det er værd, at blive delt på bloggen her.

"Med tvungen opfølgning håber jeg simpelthen, at vi kan nedbringe brugen af tvang for de her patienter," har Jakob Axel Nielsen åbenbart udtalt overfor DRs journalist, angående hans lovforslag om indførelsen af ambulant tvang.

Men Marian, har du aldri hørt om det homeopatiske prinsipp? "Likt kurerer likt."

Tak for at minde mig om det, Sigrun! Havde jeg godt nok lige glemt.
