Why are there so many psychos?

What is our mentality and how is it broken? What mental illness do people have intimate shame? What is the psychological state of people now? Which behaviors imposed by the media are symptoms of mental illness?

Child psychologist Irina Medvedeva, who is the director of the Institute for Demographic Security and co-chairman of the International Society of Art Teachers and Art Therapists, said that Russians, like residents of other countries, are imposed on such stereotypes of behavior that are symptoms of mental illness.

- Because in our country, after the so-called Perestroika, attempts began to carry out cultural scrapping. They still do not stop, although now they are no longer as aggressive as in the beginning. In my practice, the discovery of the greatest Swiss psychiatrist and psychoanalyst Carl Gustav Jung about the presence of the so-called collective unconscious in people is confirmed. Jung gave this name to the deep memory of a person, in which the basic models of behavior, the world outlook, the worldview inherent in a particular culture in which a person lives and in which his ancestors lived are somehow mysteriously encoded. If the fundamental norms of Russian culture are violated in the family, then the child's psyche suffers from this. And on the contrary, when we ask parents to return to our cultural tradition in raising a child, his psyche can be harmonized from this return to the roots.

- You can't say it briefly. One of the main principles that they are trying to break is the attitude towards poverty and wealth.

Was it ever in Russia supposed to treat wealth as the main goal in life? Wealth was never put at the forefront. Wealth has never been a criterion for a person's positiveness

Then the Russian culture is communal. We have always liked people to work together, to rejoice together, to grieve together. In the Church, this is called conciliarity. In Soviet times, this was called collectivism. In recent decades, they have been trying to tear a person away from other people, trying to convince him that he should be on his own.

I remember how in the first time, when the expression "these are your problems" came into fashion, it traumatized the ear. Everything has been done for the communal spirit to leave our life, but it cannot leave, because it is still there in the genetic memory. He's just depressed. From any pressure, some kind of reverse reaction occurs. That is, from somewhere out of the box, this communal spirit, unable to come to the surface, gives unconscious signals to a person. Both children and adults suffer from attempts at cultural destruction. The first step towards improving the psyche is the transfer of unconscious discontent, unconscious anxiety, an unconscious feeling of foreignness of what has recently been forced to obey and the feeling of foreignness of pseudo-standards into consciousness. And then you must consciously reject everything foreign.

- Traditional Russian culture is very patriotic. People here were always ready to give their lives for their land. And when Perestroika took place, they began to inspire them that they had a shameful slave story, that they had a terrible present, that they had no future, and many people at the level of consciousness believed this, because people were used to treating the media with reverence. …

- A huge role is played by the fact that Russian culture is very sublime. She is all turned into the sphere of the ideal. In Russian culture, it was not customary to attach great importance to what is today called the quality of life - what is on your table, what you are wearing, what kind of furniture you have, and so on. In Russian culture, it was customary to turn children to the sphere of the ideal as early as possible, to teach them to love the immaterial, and if the material, then not what could be bought for money, but the beauty of God's world. Love for nature, joy from it is available to any person, regardless of his wealth. To love your homeland, love your friends, love your neighbors in general, love real art - great importance was attached to all of this. Russian traditional education has always been aimed at suppressing the base in a person and at awakening and developing the upper levels of the psyche.

- In recent decades, everything has been done the other way around. The sphere of attraction is disinhibited.

Man is provoked to crave base pleasures. All the time they advertise some new varieties of yoghurts, chocolate, sausages, cheeses, furniture, cars, clothes. In addition, there is a disinhibition of the sexual sphere, the destruction of shame - this is not just a mistake, it is a terrible crime both in front of children and in front of adults

I think that there is nothing more terrible than the destruction of shame, because the feeling of intimate shame is one of the main indicators of the mental norm. And when people are called to shameless behavior as a standard, and they are told that it is necessary to discard false shame, because what is natural is not ashamed, in fact they are called to artificially disable the psyche.

- These are the most serious psychiatric illnesses. For example, some types of schizophrenia are in the defect stage. The defect stage is the last stage of any disease. Schizophrenia in the defect stage is a complete disintegration of the personality. This is a severe mental disability. And in fact, a lot of normal people are encouraged to imitate the behavior of seriously ill patients.

- I'm just sure that this cannot but affect. This does not mean that healthy people will fall ill with schizophrenia, but some deviations - one way or another - sooner or later, explicitly or latently, of course, will appear.

- Of course, in some people it is not in the best shape, because many try to keep up with the times, try to obey new stereotypes, and, being normal, imitate the behavior of the mentally ill. After all, the stereotypes imposed now are very reminiscent of psychiatric symptoms. There are a lot of misdiagnoses now because normal people can behave like the mentally ill.

- You can cite as an example aggressive behavior, which is demonstrated in thrillers, when the main character destroys and breaks everything in his path, knocks out doors, windows, jumps from the twentieth floor, and along the way along the road with a completely cold heart, not in a state of passion, and therefore that some people bother him, kills them. Here the behavior of a heboid schizophrenic is imitated. With heboid schizophrenia, a person combines adolescent aggression and adolescent irresponsibility with an absolutely stone heart. That is, such a patient, not because of his fervor, pounces on people and knocks down doors and windows, but from complete indifference to the environment.

- For example, when adults advertise some new varieties of products, licking their lips and voluptuously rolling their eyes, they imitate the behavior of the mentally ill. Adults who relate to food with such voluptuousness that they are ready to forget about everything in the world if they want to get something tasty, and whose food becomes a super-idea, so that they can no longer think or talk about anything, are called schizoid infantiles. And shamelessness, which many people, especially young people, consider a manifestation of healthy looseness, is characteristic not only of patients with schizophrenia, but also of patients who suffer from hysterical diseases, for example, hysterical psychosis.

- Nudity in public is called exhibitionism in psychiatry. For the time being, the psyche of such women can be preserved - as long as they force themselves, due to fashion, to wear such clothes, while they commit some violence over themselves. And then, when you start to like it, you have to ask the question - is everything all right with their heads? People who watch all sorts of obscenities, such as reality TV, behave like psychiatric patients with a condition called voyeurism. Such patients usually peep through the keyhole, into other people's bedrooms, into the toilet. In fact, normal people are disposed to such behavior today.

“Secondary dementia is induced here. When people laugh every day at something that even monkeys would not laugh at, they are, as it were, infected with dementia. Actually, there are questions about the modern names of catering outlets: "Potatoes", "Yum-yum". Yum-yum is babbling speech. This is what children under one year of age say. Why such a sign on the stall? For adults to degrade.

- No, you can't say that, but, of course, we have to talk about some kind of degradation or involution. And I don't know if it will be so easy to return these people to their normal state if they stop making idiots out of people.
