    Depends how strong, courageous, and vital you are. “Madness” is socially constructed, as psychiatrists know. “Normal” behaviour today would get you committed to a psych ward only 50 or 30 years ago. Maybe you are an elephant but don’t know it?https://twitter.com/nowhenow/status/1014113280967798784 …

    You steer your life, but you don't create your identity ex nihilo nor arbitrarily construct it. If the opposite were the case, I could decide I was an elephant and others would treat me accordingly rather than treat me as the insane person I would be.

        I don't think the social construction idea is widely shared among psychiatrists. It is said that Szasz, who originated the idea, only treated wealthy neurotics, rarely encountering severely debilitating mental illness.

        Whether something is an elephant obviously does not depend (merely) on how strong, courageous, and vital it is. Bizarre reductionism. Besides, not all elephants are particularly strong, certainly not courageous, and some of them are on the brink of death and without vitality.

        The first step to becoming an elephant, in the real world: Grow one's trunk.

        And that generalises to all "identities". The deed precedes the word, the effort precedes the identity. Abstract existentialism could only be cooked up in the leisure of the urban cafe.

        I'd be very interested to know which behaviour you think would get you sectioned in 1950s? Trans? Or just tattooing, piercing, veganism, alt lifestyle stuff?
