Ep. 22 - Am I Crazy?

from The Absurd World Podcast Hosted by The Absurd World Podcast

Am I crazy? Would I even know if I were? Should I rely on others to tell me? Could that be dangerous? Who could I really trust to decide what’s wrong with me? In this episode, I get to the heart of something many of us fear, misunderstand, or even go to therapy to wrestle with: the feeling that something must be wrong with me. That there’s something that sets me apart from everyone else... in a bad way. With the help of French philosopher Michel Foucault, we’ll dig into the history of how society decides who’s “crazy”, and why it might actually need some of us to feel that way in order to keep running the way it does.
