"Neurosis" and its related term "Psychosis" are NON-SCIENTIFIC, FAKE terms.


Both are FAKE terms.


Both terms come from around the same period - the late 1800s. Both were used by Freud and Freudians.

"Psychosis" is ultimately a fake way of saying you disapprove or diagree with someone's beliefs or thorts. Ostensibly it means a "break with reality". Well - how does this exclude a simple mistake? And who defines "reality"?
Beliefs aren't illnesses. And cannot be.

"Neurosis" is a way of saying that you disapprove of someone's thorts or feelings and that you believe that has something to do with their nerves - though you have never examined their physical nerves.
In fact as I have said before "Neurosis" has NOTHING to do with the nerves and is not supposed to!
"Worrisome" is another way of saying "neurotic" - and no more precise in ANY type of discourse.


Also - I will repeat that "a nervous breakdown" is a FAKE TERM.

IF it means "a life crisis" and has NOTHING OBSERVABLY related to the nervous system then it is a misleading, fake term.

It is time to tidy up our entire global culture - into which terminology like this has been spilled.
Like after a horrendous oil tanker disaster, which happened around 1900! :)

The point is these are supposedly scientific terms - and yet are not.
That means that the task of finding more accurate ways of describing our problems is vital.
