"Sanity was statistical"




JOURNAL ARCHIVE: 9/9/2006 1:53 PM
My doctor at the VA is not incompetent. He just is not law enforcement and doesn’t have the resources necessary to solve the actual problem that is agitating me. If the police would do their jobs and prosecute the people trying to terrorize me, such as Microsoft and Dave Reichert, then I wouldn’t even need a doctor from the VA

Sanity was statistical

[ Excerpt: George Orwell "Nineteen Eighty-Four" ] He had capitulated, that was agreed. In reality, as he saw now, he had been ready to capitulate long before he had taken the decision. From the moment when he was inside the Ministry of Love -- and yes, even during those minutes when he and Julia had stood helpless while the iron voice from the telescreen told them what to do -- he had grasped the frivolity, the shallowness of his attempt to set himself up against the power of the Party. He knew now that for seven years the Thought police had watched him like a beetle under a magnifying glass. There was no physical act, no word spoken aloud, that they had not noticed, no train of thought that they had not been able to infer. Even the speck of whitish dust on the cover of his diary they had carefully replaced. They had played sound-tracks to him, shown him photographs. Some of them were photographs of Julia and himself. Yes, even ... He could not fight against the Party any longer. Besides, the Party was in the right. It must be so; how could the immortal, collective brain be mistaken? By what external standard could you check its judgements? Sanity was statistical. It was merely a question of learning to think as they thought. Only! [ Excerpt: George Orwell "Nineteen Eighty-Four" ]

There is a part in that excerpt from 1984 that really hits close to home. It is the part "Sanity was statistical." I heard that very same thing when I was in the VA. Fortunately, it wasn't from a doctor though. What I heard someone say, when I was reasserting my belief that all this is indeed a conspiracy, was that they are treating me on the probability that what I am saying is not true. So that also reinforced my theory that if you are in the mental health system, is it assumed mental health problems are causing your problems as opposed to external environmental factors causing the problems. However, I did see indications they were listening to me and that they thought what I was saying made sense. I have no complaints about my treatment at the VA.

But as I have learned from this infuriating chapter of my life, there are problems that produce mental health issues and there are mental health issues that produce problems.

If they treated 100 people for the problems I am describing, it is probable that 99 of them would be delusional. But my argument has been that I am that one person that is not delusional. Sure, I am feeling paranoid, but it is a healthy paranoia. It is a normal reaction to a threat in my environment. How many more years am I going to have to live thinking no one understands?

We are the inheritors.
Do you understand that you are alone?
You are outside history.
You unexist.
Get up.
Come here.
Look at you.
You’re rotting away.
That is the last man.
If you are human, that is humanity.
It will not last forever.
You can escape from it whenever you choose.
Everything depends on you.
You did it.
You reduced me to this.
No, Winston.
You reduced yourself to it.
When will you shoot me?
Might take a long time.
But don’t give up hope.
Everyone is cured sooner or later.
And in the end...
we shall shoot you.

Smith. Open your eyes.
Parsons.
Keep away from me, Smith.
I’m an agent of Goldstein.
I didn’t know it myself.
Thoughtcrime is so insidious.
It just creeps up on you.
My daughter found it out.
Very proud of her.
Very grateful I’ve been discovered before it’s too late.
They won’t shoot me, will they, Smith?
I know I could be very useful in a labor camp.
Room .
No.
Please, you don’t have to take me there.
Why?
There’s nothing I won’t confess.
Nothing.
I’ve told you everything already.
What is it you want me to know?
Take him instead of me.
He’s the thoughtcriminal. It’s him you want.
They got you, too.
They got me a long time ago.
You knew this would happen, Winston.
Don’t deceive yourself. You’ve always known it.
The photos of you and the girl will be recycled for proletarian use.
Do you know where you are, Winston?
I don’t know.
I can guess.
In the Ministry of Love.
Do you know how long you’ve been here?
No.
Weeks?
Months?
Do you know why you’re here?
Shall I tell you why we brought you here?
To cure you.
To make you sane.
That was .
You can see that the numbers on this dial run up to .
Will you please remember that, during our conversation?
I have it in my power to inflict pain on you at any time...
and in whatever degree I choose.
You know perfectly well what is the matter with you, Winston.
You’ve known it for years, though you’ve fought against the knowledge.
You are mentally deranged.
You suffer from a defective memory.
You never tried to cure yourself of it, because you did not choose to.
It was a small effort of will, which you were not ready to make.
