Hurting, Not “Ill”

The society’s “mental health” systems describe people as “mentally ill.” Re-evaluation Counseling regards such people as hurting, not “ill.” People labeled by the society as having “mental illness” simply are carrying particular distresses that the particular society refuses to tolerate. These aren’t “worse” distresses than other distresses.
