Aufklärung über mentale Gesundheit beinhaltet oft diese Botschaft: "Psychische Störungen denken sich Menschen nicht aus. Sie sind echte Erkrankungen". Ich verstehe diese Idee und ich teile das Anliegen. Aber manche Verkürzungen zu diesem Thema können zu Problemen führen. 1/
Es ist kein Zufall, dass #Psychotherapeut*innen Störungen (engl. disorders) diagnostizieren, Ärzt*innen aber Erkrankungen (engl. diseases). 2/ Image
Es fehlen im deutschen differenzierte Begriffe wie im Englischen: Begriffe wie #condition und #disorder haben eine andere Bedeutung als #disease, #sickness und #illness. Die ICD erscheint (genauso wie das DSM) auf Englisch und wird dann übersetzt ins Deutsche. 3/

"Unfortunately, we already have a good idea of its results. In late Feb 2020, right before EU countries mandated various forms of lockdowns, The Lancet published a review of 24 studies documenting the #psychological impact of quarantine."

"The findings offer a glimpse of what is brewing in hundreds of millions of households around the world...
