As a social science that attempts to classify, treat, and prevent mental, emotional and behavioral disorders as they exhibit themselves in humans, psychiatry not only attempts to formulate a normative conception of what a human is, but also develops a social construct of what a human ought to be. Such a categorization of human beings does not disregard variance and differences between individuals, it does take into account the wildly different personalities, behaviorisms, and thought structures of individuals across historical, cultural, kin, and social lines. Human beings are not a unitary entity operating within the framework of a singularity, rather they are distinct and separated individual agents with their own biological makeup that is ultimately affected by social influences. That is to say, from the extroverted outgoing human to the introverted reclusive human, from the everyday layperson to the dedicated scholar, humans differ. Upon these differences rise clusters of social networks that build upon individuals’ preconceived notions of values, ethics, morals, and beliefs that ultimately form societies with social structures based upon the aggregate sum of these individual notions. Which brings the author to the point of wondering merriment as to how, from these individual islands of division and aggregated masses of differences that an entire field of study has not only developed, but has taken root as an executor of what it perceives to be a standardized set of norms classified within manuals and handbooks. Due to the subjective nature of humans and their unpredictability given their different biological makeup, familial upbringing, genetic predispositions, social frameworks, and social context, the field of psychiatry by basing itself on diagnosing, treating, and preventing mental and emotional and behavioral disorder begs the question of what exactly is a disorder.
