Extraversion and introversion look differently on brain scans but neither is considered a disorder. Hence social disapproval is necessary for something to be a disorder. There are definitely things society should disapprove of but a person is more likely to change if they focus on changing their behavior and not obsessing over their thoughts. If you focus on what needs to be done that is more productive than trying to change your thoughts and then change behavior indirectly.
Criminals should be treated as criminals and not mollycoddled and told they are ill.
Is it normal most mental illness symptoms seem normal to me?
