How do mental illness and a dysfunctional society feed each other? The Ohio School shooting is not an isolated problem; social problems are tied together. Why didn’t this behavior exhibit itself in a different era? Why is it surfacing now? Where are all of these school shootings coming from? What is causing their perpetuation?
Many times the shooter has some mental problems, but sometimes sane individuals do crazy things in dysfunctional societies. Have you ever had a crazy moment? Roger Mills, PhD used to say, “Normal people do crazy things. We go in and out of mental illness all day long. Our best hope is to recognize it and not act when we are in a crazy moment.”
What do you think?
