Society, what is it really? There is eastern and western societies on the planet. Which is the best to follow? Another good question that is needing an answer for. Why is it always to follow societies norms that is a must?
The average person follows the rules set out by society. If you do not follow these rules you are viewed as a problem in the eyes of everyone else. Thinking for yourself if becoming more of a threat to those in power within the structure that is governments. The reason is because free thinking is what society has tried to show us that it is wrong to think for ourselves.
For those who want to think for themselves they are labeled with mental illness since they do not want to follow everyone else. This is because if you follow your own free will more people will do it as well. Society is in a way telling us what to do through the voice of the media.
Do not get it wrong, those at the top of societies ladder wants full control over your life. As the rulers make laws for you and me, they do not follow them themselves. This does not matter which society that you are in because it is the same all over the world.
Society says that after you finish high school you must go and get higher education that will put you into student debt. Then when you are done school, you work a job for the rest of your life and retire at sixty-five if you can afford to. During the time after schooling and retirement you are said to go deeper into debt because you need to buy a house, find a spouse and raise a family and the such. In the modern day the average person is a slave to society as they follow what they are told. You think you have freedom, however it is all an illusion that society dictates to make you feel good.
The ones who are able to break free of the society system are those who suffer from mental illness and I am not saying that people who get white washed with a huge brush because they need an excuse. I am talking about those who have real mental health issues not the ones who need to find an escape from society. There are too many people who say they have mental health problems just because they think it is a way out until they realize that once you have been diagnosed with a mental illness there is no way to get that off your record.
Since my diagnosis in 2005, I have seen what society things of the mentally ill. We are put on a drug cocktail and pushed into a dark room. The odd time some of us that take on the fight to change how we are treated. Most of us are over medicated and this is why the mentally ill are written off by society.
As society has written off the mentally ill, it is almost like we are given a pen to write our own lives outside the rules. The worst fear is someone who writes their own life. It does take a lot more for people who have mental health issues to lead their own lives. The reason is because the doctors who are in charge of our cases are paid to make sure we are drugged out. That is how society treat people who have mental illness.
There is an important reason why in the education system that the way teachers teach the youth. A teacher is responsible for what the kids learn because they have to be ready for the world once they finish school which is an important thing. Societies rules are learned in all schools and for the students that have trouble in school they get help.
Stay safe.
