And the facts of psychiatry are actually even more difficult to observe because they require greater impartiality than the facts of physical laws. For in human life, as soon as one moves from the so-called healthy, relatively healthy, to the relatively sick, there is actually almost no possibility of completely isolating the person. The human being certainly develops into a complete individuality, into an isolated life. He does this precisely through his psyche, but through that which deviates in the psyche from the straight line of development. What deviates in the physical from the so-called normal development is not so. I can only hint at this, of course; one would otherwise have to make hours of explanations if one wanted to prove it in detail. It is not the case that one can look at it in isolation; the human being is much more of a social being, even in the deeper sense, than one usually thinks. And in particular, mental illnesses can actually only rarely be assessed on the basis of, say, the biography of the individual, the isolated individual. That is almost completely impossible.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"On Psychiatry","site_heading":null,"date":"1920-03-26","location":null,"word_count":212,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/en/ga/314/1920-03-26/p013","alignment_confidence":"medium","alignment_reason":"beads:identity","two_voice_volume":false,"translation_credit":{"scope":"unit","status":"established","translator":"Steiner Online Library","identified_edition":"Singles","book_title":"On Psychiatry","publisher":null,"publisher_inferred":false,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA314/English/Singles/19200326p01.html","evidence":"lecture_page_line"},"edition_coverage":{"de":["original"],"en":["English"]},"available_versions":[{"lang":"de","edition":"original","edition_basis":null,"is_original":true,"is_default_edition":true,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/314/1920-03-26/p013"},{"lang":"en","edition":"English","edition_basis":null,"is_original":false,"is_default_edition":true,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/en/ga/314/1920-03-26/p013","paragraph_aligned":true}],"record":{"record_type":"unknown","scope":"volume","note":"How this text was taken down (shorthand transcript, listeners' notes or manuscript) is not on record here.

Und die Tatsachen der Psychiatrie, die sind im Grunde genommen noch schwieriger zu beobachten, weil sie eine größere Vorurteilslosigkeit erfordern als die Tatsachen der physischen Gesetzwirkung. Denn in dem Menschenleben gibt es eigentlich im Grunde genommen, sobald man vom sogenannten Gesunden, relativ Gesunden, zu dem relativ Kranken übergeht, fast keine Möglichkeit, den Menschen vollständig zu isolieren. Der Mensch entwickelt sich gewiß zu einer völligen Individualität, zu einem isolierten Leben. Das tut er gerade durch sein Psychisches, aber durch dasjenige, was im Psychischen abweicht von der geradlinigen Entwickelung. Was im Physischen abweicht von der geradlinigen, sogenannten normalen Entwickelung, das ist nicht so. Ich kann das nur andeuten natürlich, man müßte sonst stundenlange Ausführungen machen, wenn man es im einzelnen belegen wollte, es ist nicht so, daß man es isoliert betrachten kann; der Mensch ist viel mehr ein, auch im tieferen Sinne genommen, soziales Wesen, als man gewöhnlich meint. Und insbesondere lassen sich eigentlich psychische Erkrankungen in den seltensten Fällen bloß beurteilen nach, sagen wir, der Biographie des einzelnen, isolierten Individuums.
