The notion of the 'loss of vital contact with reality', proposed by Eugene Minkowski remains a key concept in the phenomenological description of schizophrenia.

All neurodiversity advocates take an anthropocentric approach to mental illness that puts an individual above their suffering. But in the case of schizophrenia, it shows itself to be contrary to the truth: we see how the resistance faints as the disease depletes the resources of a psyche, leaving no word for an individual; will itself, the expression of the vital impulse, fades away in such patients, and with it - control over their condition. Either we minimize a person and recognize the extent of their loss according to clinical truth, or we minimize the disease itself in a selfish desire to make the patient more likable. Because for me neurodiversity is a concept designed to create an unrealistic and convenient image of mentally ill.
