Mind/body problem, computer metaphor, which is totally positivist.


Hardware and software are purely man-made and mechanical,


But people, their minds and their bodies, are living beings, not machines.

Also, what you do to hardware, is independent of what happens in software, and vice versa.
 You can treat separately 'diseases' of hardware and software.

While, diseases of body and mind, are closely connected and interdependent.


Moreover, man is not absolutely rational and logical, like computer.

Man has free will, not like computer, which is operated externally.


Psychiatry tries to impose rationality, as it understands it, individually, 
on each and every person, 

a member of the society, and totally, on the whole society.



Society becomes more and more controlled, more and more 'rationalized',


and percentages of 'fools', of those who cannot respond 
to the psychiatry criterion for rationality,

continually rises, like the level of education, senility of society, 
 and percent of those who are prescribed glasses.


Positivist mindset of natural sciences gradually overcomes the world.

Even a Ph. D. seeker, a woman studying anti-psychiatry,
 a rebellion against social control,

cannot escape comparison of people with computers, the computer 'metaphor',

even not noticing positivist 'taste' of it while otherwise debunking
 positivist theory in psychiatry,

and, in general, in medicine, and , more general, as an epistemological fallacy.
