Getting On : Health
Psychiatry vs. evil possession and exorcism | from SeanSwede - Monday, October 02, 2006
accessed 3126 times
I don`t want to do a long run down on the different known disorders and symptoms for it may be a little uninteresting for some and I'm sure some of you are already enlightend and are perhaps even working within psychiatry like myself.
I can say that there are several types of psychiatric disorders and personality disorders. Some people can even only just have certain characteristics or shades of various disorders.
Some of the most common disorders are schizophrenia disorders, aspbergers syndrom, ADHD, ADD, bipolar disorders, borderline, PTSDs, psychopathy and various other personality disorders.
Some people are either born with or later develop these disorders later in life and some develop disorders because of negative experiences that they have had. Having had a rough upbringing as a child do cause various disorders and/or personality disorders and we now know the importance of a healthy upbringing for children when referring to Freuds theories of development for instance.
So, the terrible truth of it all seems to be in some cases simply this that the adults, teens and children who were accused of being possessed by evil spirits and of being trouble makers, daydreamers and chronically "spaced out", aggressive, chronically depressed and very low and negative thinking, "seeing visions or spirits", distant, talking to themselves or someone invisible. Generally non-normal behaviour has brought them to the exorcist chamber where they sadly had to undergo exorcisim and public degradation time and again and or being sent to Detention Centers, Victor Camps and Attack Teams etc.
Another thing is that TFI have a very medieval mentality when referring to parents who have born neurologically impared children. They believe that "it was the lords will" and/or punishment for the parents and to keep them humble and so forth. How absurd!!
I am not sure if this type of thing has ever been brought out before in discussions but I thought I would bring it out anyways just incase. It would be interesting to know the view points of you all about these matters.
I know that we have all been in the rough at times after leaving the TFI and alot of us have gone to get counseling and that is very good. Seeing that I myself have been raised in the TFI and coming out into the normal world and everything was new. I had it difficult for years to try to cope with this new found world and get adjusted. I refused for years to go to any kind of counseling. I felt that I already knew how they thought and their strategies for giving counseling and I thought that this one was too tough for them to crack or comprehend. But after my thickheadedness period was over and I did finally go for counseling it really wasnt that bad at all. I actually felt good and I wanted to go back for more.
It is a very common trait for people with deep rooted depressions to react in that sort of way like I have just described by having a negative look on especially psychologists and other counselers. That way of thinking perhaps stems from what the TFI have pushed in our brains to believe. Do not feel bad if you have had long term depressions or post traumatic stress disorders. We have had a tough and abnormal upbringing and that is the reason why we have had psychological problems. Alot of us still get symptoms of "shellshock" from time to time, if you know what I mean.

In the U.S. we use something called the Diagnostic Statistical Manual-IV as a standardized way to assign a diagnosis and bill for psychiatric services. You can access the DSM-IV online if you're curious about this system of categorization. People who come into psychiatric treatment often have several diagnoses or co-morbid conditions. I've thought a lot over the years about Berg's diagnoses and have concluded he was nuttier than squirrel shit. I could stay in business for years billing for all the symptoms that show up in Berg's writing and behavior. This is what I "get" for the Bergomaniac:
296.60: Bipolar I Disorder, mixed episodes (manic & depressed) with religious pre-occupations
297.1: Delusional Disorder, mixed type (erotomanic, grandiose & persecutory)
301.81: Narcissistic Personality Disorder
291.30: Alcohol-induced Psychotic Disorder with hallucinations
290.12: Dementia with delusions
302.2: Pedophlia, attracted to females, non-exclusive type
V62.89: Religious or spiritual problem

So its that time of month again. Has anyone else noticed the cycladic nature of the "Swede phonomenum"?
He some how comes up with the most moronically obvious statements, seemingly designed to draw the ire of nearly every participant of this site. He then ineffectively defends said statements, after which time he enters the beating phase of this cycle, which seems to be his objective in the first place.
During this phase he comments on year old comments written by his betters, further eroding any sympathy he may have garnered from the few "Weenies" that inhabit this site.
Finally, he enters the sulking phase, where he leaves well enough alone(well enough being this site) and retreats back to whatever hole he climbed out of. This is, however, only a temporary respite, as once his bullshit battery is recharged he will once again dive headlong into the fray.
I can see only one explanation for this cycle. Swede is a woman in the spirit, and these missives he leaves us are his spiritual cotxes. At first I thought that perhaps he was just a plain old physical woman, but then the lord punched through. Seeing as none of the real women on this site behave in this manner, I deduce that he is indeed one of "the lords sexy endtime brides".
While we're on the subject, how does one become a "sexy endtime bride" in the spirit, as opposed to a "nerdy endtime bride", or perhaps a "smelly endtime bride"? Does one perhaps wear "spiritual lingerie", and anoint themselves with "heavenly deodorant"?
I think Ill have to go ask my shepherd about this.
Amen? Do you?

Wood-eating worms return to NYC waters
By The Associated Press
Monday, October 9, 2006 9:10 AM EDT
Years ago, captains would actually park in Brooklyn's Gowanus Canal to kill off any marine growth on their ships, thanks to water so polluted it could change color daily, said John Waldman, a Queens College professor who has studied the environmental history of New York Harbor.
“It had this legendary smell that you could smell for blocks, even miles,” he said. “The harbor was quite dead.”
With human waste being dumped directly into the waterways, wildlife died off, Waldman said.
By 1900, the harbor's oysters were smothered. Visitors would gape as methane gas bubbles rose to the surface, produced by waste degrading at the bottom. Sections of the harbor caught fire. In the first decade of the century, civil engineers found 10-foot-tall deposits of human waste at the bottom of the waterway.

But if we don't feed it, it will get hungry. Do you know what will happen if it gets hungry? You will wake up one morning and your cat will be missing, The kitchen door will be off it's hinges, there will be no food left in the pantry, (Unless you have noodles, monsters hate raw noodles but they are too lazy to cook) the fridge will be on it's side and empty, and you will wonder how the hell you slept through all this.
Is that what you want? Personally, I think I will just keep feeding it. Do you know how hard it is to pick up a fridge once it has been placed on it's side?

Hey Thor,
I am so glad for you that you have in fact mastered the Swedish language and that you have a Swedish last name quite an accomplishment I'll say. Is that supposed to change my mind about how intelligent you are.
You have such a very hard time taking any critisizm.
It makes me wonder about your maturity.
If your resolution is to "fuck them all" then why are you so butt hurt?

Top 10 ways to tell if you're a Christian :
10
You vigorously deny the existence of thousands of gods claimed by other religions, but feel outraged when someone denies the existence of yours.
9
You feel insulted and "dehumanized" when scientists say that people evolved from other life forms, but you have no problem with the Biblical claim that we were created from dirt.
8
You laugh at polytheists, but you have no problem believing in a Triune God.
7
Your face turns purple when you hear of the "atrocities" attributed to Allah, but you don't even flinch when hearing about how God/Jehovah slaughtered all the babies of Egypt in "Exodus" and ordered the elimination of entire ethnic groups in "Joshua" including women, children, and trees!
6
You laugh at Hindu beliefs that deify humans, and Greek claims about gods sleeping with women, but you have no problem believing that the Holy Spirit impregnated Mary, who then gave birth to a man-god who got killed, came back to life and then ascended into the sky.
5
You are willing to spend your life looking for little loopholes in the scientifically established age of Earth (few billion years), but you find nothing wrong with believing dates recorded by Bronze Age tribesmen sitting in their tents and guessing that Earth is a few generations old.
4
You believe that the entire population of this planet with the exception of those who share your beliefs -- though excluding those in all rival sects - will spend Eternity in an infinite Hell of Suffering. And yet consider your religion the most "tolerant" and "loving."
3
While modern science, history, geology, biology, and physics have failed to convince you otherwise, some idiot rolling around on the floor speaking in "tongues" may be all the evidence you need to "prove" Christianity.
2
You define 0.01% as a "high success rate" when it comes to answered prayers. You consider that to be evidence that prayer works. And you think that the remaining 99.99% FAILURE was simply the will of God.
1
You actually know a lot less than many atheists and agnostics do about the Bible, Christianity, and church history - but still call yourself a Christian.

Rough translation (bearing in mind that I am Danish, not Swedish):
'Excuse me? You don't know what you're talking about you little (don't know the word). I speak and write Swedish fluently - I am, after all, Swedish/Norwegian. My given name is Thor and I have a Swedish surname. I think you should piss off if you don't have anything better to say.'

Well, at least we get the gist of it.
We also see that whatever language he uses, there isn't much of a difference in tone. Is Swedish an agressive language? Some ways of saying things in Japanese can sound pretty awful when said in English, so maybe in Sweden everybody just always talks like a complete arse, and Swedieboy can't kick the habit when writing in English.(reply to this comment) |

I don't think anybody is being harsh. Rather, some are taking the comments too harshly. I'm not having fun hurting anyone.
For every action, there is an equal reaction. Sean's tone whether intentional or not, has been patronizing and authoritative. IMO few of us appreciate that tone.
Some people have been nice enough to point out exactly why he's been getting negative response, and how exactly he can improve that. No matter how much you or anyone else tries to defend him, it'll be water off a ducks back. The only person that can change his reputation is himself. (reply to this comment) |

Could someone please explain what the big fuss is about, about my article. I wasn`t trying to make enemies with anyone. I think I need some help here from the ones who do agree with me on this article. Perhaps its just TFI members who are commenting or something. I am wondering that maybe its people who have taken this article personally for some reason who are the ones who are attacking me so much. Perhaps its people who have undergone abusive exorcism themselves when in that hellhole the TFI and they are taking this article as if I am accusing them of having some mental illness. I assure you that I was in no way insinuating that at all. Thank goodness there are relevent explainations to abnormal behaviours and that it is not just written off as some kind of evil possession. I mean this article has been read by alot of people and not everyone wants to comment on it for numerous reasons. So we will never know how everyone is really thinking on the subject.

As you seem to be lost, and to placate sara, let me say this to you, pay attention now:
The reason people are making fun of you is because you have posted opinions, which may be new and blindingly brilliant to you, but to everyone else are self-evident and common knowledge. Perhaps the language barrier is to blame, but you come across as being a know-it-all, who is talking to people who are inferior to him. When people react to this, you then cry that everyone is picking on you.

Aside from the obvious (education), another area where growth was stunted for some in TF was social skills.
Word of advice, you can get by with less education, if you quit acting like a stuck-up arsehole. I couldn't give a rats arse if you were a certified psychiatrist. Wouldn't make you any less of a know-it-all kid showing off what he's read this morning in his encyclopaedia. "I don't really understand it, but I know something the other boys don't so I need to show it off". Doesn't help much when you have a grade school textbook in college. Do me a favor and tell me where you got this (education). Just so I know where not to go.
P.S. I'm not sure that TFI leaders were always ignorant. I'd say there is a very good chance they knew, but used it anyway to manipulate their following. Look at how they told TF to manipulate and distort the information about ricky. Nothing new. All religious orders do the same to some extent.(reply to this comment) |

For your own sake, develop a bit of a thick skin and stop taking everything so personally. Just let some of it go. It's not the end of the world if people don't agree with you. In fact it almost would be the end of the world if everyone did. Just smile, shake your head at them, and go happily about your day. People get bored of picking on someone who doesn't react.

Look Sean, I will spell it out from my point of view. If I make fun of what you have posted it is because I am treating you as an equal. If you want special treatment let me know, and the next time you post something completely fucking obvious I will respond with; “Oh, look, Lil SeaneePooh had a deep thought. Innt he cute?” I too am in the medical field, and though I no longer work in patient care, I did so for 9 years while working in mental health. It would be a waste of my time and yours to tell you how many bi polar and schizophrenic patients I saw that were convinced they were afflicted by, or hearing “demons”, only to find themselves magically fixed by the right dose of Depakote, or Haldol with an Artane chaser. Its not that I disagree with what you are saying, you are absolutely right. Umm, DUH! You say it like it is the latest breakthrough in the history of health. I mean imagine me going to one of my peers and saying;
“Umm, I was thinking, ok, this guy thinks he is hearing demons, but, hear me out…(dramatic pause)… What if it’s just internal stimuli as a result of schizophrenia and not demons at all?”
Yes, it’s like that Sean. So don’t get all butt-hurt if I find this downright laughable. If you want to be treated like an equal, you will get mocked because you have insulted my intelligence. If you want to be treated like you are an idiot, let me know and I will leave you alone. I am sure you are capable of better writing, let’s see it.(reply to this comment) |

Holy mother of Cobain...
If any TFI members had any real psychiatric disorders, they were caused by the physically and mentally oppressive environment..
In most cases, there would have been no problems at all. Some people just realized earlier than others. Something was wrong. Others tried to take a shot up the cult ladder and were shot down.
So I daydream a lot. So he wets his bed. So my drawings have some freakish flavor. So she can't sit still during quiet time. So he has bad breath. So I had an epileptic fit. So she threw a tantrum.

Your articles and comments give the impression that you don't know jack about the topics you post for discussion.
Hmm why do I feel this is all familiar?
Your response to any opinion not an identical twin to yours. "whatever" or "why do people attack me" or "buzz off".
Does this feel like déjà vu?
The total arrogance. The condescending and patronizing remarks. The assumption that all others are stupid people who somehow need your words of wisdom.
Almost there. Déjà vu.
Oooohhhh!! That's it!! Your style is in fact quite reminiscent of David B. Berg.
Is it a surprise then that you are lacking in the popularity department?
This is not an attack on you. You need my help to be popular. I read Dale Carnegie`s book "how to bake friends and influenza peolple". And that makes me and xpert, because, of course I read it before you. Why? Because I`m older than you. Like most FGA`s are older than SGs. Do ya feel me? I mean, I'm talking experience levels here. Basically, you are stupid. I am smart. Guess what? I discovered the world isn`t flat. Bet you didn`t know that one! Huh buddy?

SeanSwede, I dont hate you. But I must say that you invite ridicule with articles such as this one. Let me clue you in.
Lets look at your article. First of all, you tell us about studying medicine and majoring in psychiatry. This is all well and good, but you seem to use this as foundation for what appeared to be presented as a kind of "definitive work", or groundbreaking discovery. Its as though you are sharing with the proletariat some wisdom that has so long eluded us.
It's a "thank you captain obvious" situation. Yes, I believe it is common knowledge that some family members suffered from mental disorders, aggravated by the cult's attitude towards them, etc, etc, ad nauseum.
Im speaking for myself here, by the way. For me, when I read your articles, I get the impression that you have a very high opinion of yourself, and this would be justified, were it not for the poorly constructed arguments, the random references to unrelated topics, such as Freud, for instance.... The run-on sentences, the poor grammar.
It almost seems to me that english isnt your first language. If this is the case, you have my heartfelt apology. In the future, try presenting things with a "this is just my opinion" attitude, without appearing to patronize the reader. Your comments about the age of people on this site do little to help your credibility. Try doing a little research before making claims.
I do wish you the best. I know youve been through hard times like the rest of us, and you are understandably proud of your hard-earned education. (reply to this comment) |

Please do. I think we'd all be better off for it. I can forgive a lot, and I would have forgiven all of your grammatical/logical/spelling/punctuation errors, if you had humbled yourself from the beginning as someone who does not speak/write the language very well. Did you do that? Absolutely not. You're an asshole. You have no clue about what's going on around you. You think that we are the reason why no one likes you. You come here touting yourself as a genius, with your conclusions that would be better expressed at Obvious Day at Camp Stupid. When we call you on it, you act like we're racist against Swedish people, and call us immature and "inexperienced" because we might be younger than you. So tell me why the fuck I should cut you any slack?
I know what it's like to face language barriers. I spent 9 months in Spain learning the language, and whenever I had to speak to someone or express myself other than the most basic request, I would always humble myself and explain to the person that my Spanish wasn't very good. Even if it was excellent! I did that to prevent any criticisms, and by doing it people were much more friendly and receptive to what I had to say. Whenever you're in a situation in unfamiliar territory or you need something from anyone, you just have to assume that you're lesser than everyone else there.

Have you ever read "Mein Kampf"? You and Adolf have remarkably similar writing styles. It isnt your premise I object to, its the poorly constructed article.

All of you guys and girls tryin` to be so smart with your mouths... You know who you are. Just the way how you comment on stuff on this site. I`m sorry to put it to you but, you suck.
You try to hide your ignorance behind your "smart " and "intelligent" way of talking and your irony in your comments to things that people write about, who even have the the same god damn backround as yourselvs. You make us all sick...really sick.
When you can`t make a "cool" comment, all you can do is pick on the authors typos and punktuations etc.
Your obviously only attacking what you do not understand yourselves...just pitifull.(reply to this comment) |

We make us "all" sick... really sick.
Let me speak for myself. I love articles and comments stuffed with wit, basted in irony, and marinated in sarcasm. I don't give a rats ass if some dude shares my background. If he's cool he's cool. He's alright. If he's a moron, he get's no love from me. Sympathy, sure. Pity, I'll give ya a double serving with extra frosting. But you don't get respect or love. We don't need to love one another if we don't want to. For Lucifer's sake quit whinging and moaning about how people are quicker/brighter/smarter, and just a tad bit mature than you are. And don't claim to speak for all. Where did you do your research? 50.001% of your brain cells say so, so that must be the majority opinion?(reply to this comment) |

Oooh, does the retard feel left out? Sorry, but maybe there should be a disclaimer that anyone who decides to post a comment will be torn to shreds by at least 3 different "smart," "intelligent," ironic people. This isn't the family, we're not going to pat you on the back and give you gold stars for being a moron.
BTW, I try to be smart with my brain, that sends teeny-tiny messages to my fingers that type this. My mouth isn't involved in the least.
I didn't pick on your typos and punctuations, which are abundant(are you using a swedish keyboard too, what's with accent marks as apostrophes?), I just said I didn't understand the joke you were trying to make. In fact, it made me look stupid for not understanding your basic, idiotic train of thought. Sorry. (reply to this comment) |

I do not think most of them were suffering from any sort of psychiatric disorder whatsoever; they were simply exhibiting natural and healthy rebellion against the people who were controlling every aspect of thier lives. They were trying to claim their last point of freedom: their minds and their wills. if it came out in tantrums, etc, that's just how it came out. If, like me, they escaped from reality by daydreaming, well, that was also labelled a spritual attack. Basically any behaviour apart from brainwashed was considered an attack of 'The Enemy'...man, life's much simpler without all that spiritual warfare bullshit.

I would tend to agree with you, Rain, although I would think that there were a few cases of the more serious psychiatric disorders, and probably quite a few cases of various types of depression.
There were certainly cases that I am aware of where children displayed behaviours that indicated asperger's syndrome or ADHD, though, and I have always felt it very very sad the way children who simply could not behave to the standard expected of them were demonised and their parents looked down on for being out of the spirit. I remember one boy in particular who was actually a very lovely little guy, and i was so glad that he was in my group, because when he was with me he behaved beautifully simply because I treated him with love and respect and allowed him to work at the pace that he was capable of. Many times I wish I could have done more to shield the children in my care.

OH geez, the family had a very medieval approach to psychiatric problems, blaming them on the devil, or possession. It surprises me how many people nowadays still believe in possession. Remember that whole spiel and theological dogma of defining possession versus opression. Except the family took it to the extreme, per David Berg of course, anybody who got in his way was possessed, I remember reading all about the Genesis series. I was personally accussed of being possessed, at the age of 13, in fact nearly everyone of us victors were possessed.
I remember thinking about Zach attack, or Tony, I lived with him for awhile before David Berg's "revelation' of his rebellious spirit. They circulated GN"s with a photo taken from a video clip! If anyone here knows, you can make anybody look absolutely vile, if you retrieve a photo from a video tape. That's when I realized at the age of 14, maybe this whole possession thing is just slander and propaganda.

Perhaps? Perhaps? Where did you find this? Did you dig up a 200 year-old health journal?
