The WHO concluded that living in a "developed" country like the US is a strong predictor you’ll have a bad outcome if you’re diagnosed with schizophrenia. Why is it that living in a developed country, with all of its advances in medicine, would be a predictor of a bad outcome?

"Investigators from Harvard Med School reported in 1994 that long-term outcomes for schizophrenia patients had declined over the past 20 years, and were now no better than they had been in 1900."

The former editor-in-chief of The New England Journal of Medicine, Marcia Angell, wrote:

It is simply no longer possible to believe much of the [psychiatric] clinical research that is published, or to rely on the judgment of trusted physicians or authoritative medical guidelines. I take no pleasure in this conclusion, which I reached slowly and reluctantly over my two decades as an editor...

The number of diagnostic categories (diseases) has proliferated with each subsequent edition of the DSM. The first edition had 128 categories, and the most recent, the DSM-5, catalogs 541 diagnoses. Frances, Chair of the DSM-4 effort, has bemoaned the excess of diagnostic labels that increasingly medicalize what he considers “severe variants of normal behavior”, adding that recent increases in the rates of ADHD, bipolar disorder, and ASDs are “market-driven diagnostic fads”. According to him, the DSM-5 will lead to massive over-diagnosis and harmful over-medication:

Except for autism, all the DSM-5 changes loosen diagnosis and threaten to turn our current diagnostic inflation into diagnostic hyperinflation. Painful experience with previous DSMs teaches that if anything in the diagnostic system can be misused and turned into a fad, it will be. Many millions of people with normal grief, gluttony, distractibility, worries, reactions to stress, the temper tantrums of childhood, the forgetting of old age, and “behavioral addictions” will soon be mislabeled as psychiatrically sick and given inappropriate treatment.

People with real psychiatric problems that can be reliably diagnosed and effectively treated are already badly shortchanged. DSM-5 will make this worse by diverting attention and scarce resources away from the really ill and toward people with the everyday problems of life, who will be harmed, not helped, when they are mislabeled as mentally ill.

If psychiatric drugs work as miraculously as they're often claimed to be, then why are mental illnesses increasing rather than decreasing?

Infectious diseases decreased dramatically after the antibiotics discovery; shouldn't the same happen with mental illnesses?

"It's not medicine"😂

Society has always been hostile to philosophers and the so-called "free thinkers" not because society is deliberately against wisdom and anti-truth, but simply because true thinking is inherently destructive; it is skeptical towards everything (including society's most cherished values). By extension, those who do serious thinking—thinkers—are usually destructive agents.

Their persecution, therefore, is not due to some noble effort of truth-seekers against the adamantly ignorant. It is much more simple, and much less noble.
