Not so much a take on normality as a side-swipe at the Madness Industry.

Bentall is a really interesting dissenting voice when it comes to psychiatry etc.

And the OP had me laughing my socks off

Quotehe argued that hearing voices, hallucinations and other symptoms of "severe" mental illness are just exaggerations of quirks experienced by us all. That won him the British Psychological Book Of The Year award.

Holy fuck. Y'know if I wasn't such a pessimist I'd say it almost looks as if there's a chance that the field of clinical psychology might be on the verge of actually learning something about the human mind :eek:

Uhhhh pretty much any abnormal behavior/condition is just a normal condition taken to an extreme. How is that groundbreaking?

Apparently they also share the same symptoms of an orgasm:

Dull headache
Weakness
Dizziness
Nausea
Vomiting
Shortness of breath
Confusion
Blurred vision
Loss of consciousness

If any of those occurred when I was orgasming I'd see a doctor immediately.

That's because you're not serious about having a good time.

I love it when people contradict what I said, only to restate it in different terms. :roll:

Oh FFS. :roll: No, she is doing the same thing she always does, which is finding something to contradict. Read the thread. Jesus.

Personally, I like to walk into bars and take sides in saloon brawls in which I have no clue of the history of the participants, who started what, or how long the fight has been going on.

Because I want the poop on BOTH shoes.  Up to the ankle.

I guess a principled and consistent Buddhist, or a principled and consistent Taoist, indeed, possibly even a principled and consistent Discordian (were there such a thing) would say that this is correct, happiness is madness.

They would then go on to add that unhappiness, of course, is also madness.

They would possibly do this with a massive grin.

The Buddhist would then add that madness must be dispensed with...

The Taoist may wink and say madness may be dispensed with if you feel like it...

The Discordian may agree with the Taoist but add, as an aside, that madness is just too much fun to dispense with...

... and the grin would grow manic ...
