Overview

THIS BOOK IS NOT DIAGNOSING YOU This book is not here to tell you what is ""wrong"" with you. Mostly because that question is badly phrased. Mental disorder is not a defect hiding inside a person. It is a description we apply when a brain's behavior, emotions, or perceptions repeatedly fail to cooperate with expectations-social, occupational, internal, or biological. Those expectations change. The brain does not read the updates. Unlike broken bones, brains do not malfunction in straight lines. They overshoot. They mispredict. They amplify harmless signals and mute dangerous ones. They learn patterns that used to work and refuse to unlearn them when circumstances change. They are plastic, adaptive, and occasionally absolute disasters at reading the room. This book treats mental disorder as systems behavior, not moral failure, personal weakness, or mystical flaw. The same neural machinery that enables creativity, ambition, memory, love, and humor can-under specific pressures-produce anxiety, depression, obsession, psychosis, dissociation, addiction, and despair. No extra villain required.
