Brain brain brain or the mind

I read these posts and its brains brains brains... Realy ?


"The basic problem with the medical model is that people take it literally rather than understanding it as the metaphor it is. The medical model portrays the mind as an object. It equates mind with brain and uses this assumption to justify defining certain thoughts, feelings, and behavior as medical diseases " From http://www.szasz.com/leifercritic.pdf

I was just reading a post and the writer kept saying "my brain" this and "my brain" that... mabey its just a confusion delusion of some sort ?
I survived psychiatry.
