It is the notion of mental illness as a medical disease that makes it so a doctor can tell responsible adults which drugs he is entitled to in the pursuit of "life, liberty...and happiness". It is OK to take amphetamine, but only if a doctor deems it "medically necessary". I have languished for years waiting to have access to a doctor that was enlightened enough to see that I needed more than an SSRI+antipsychotic (as if more than a minority optimally benefit from that stuff).

Social control masquerading as medicine. This is the point that Thomas Szazs has been making for, oh, nearly fifty years now to no avail.
