You see, it is possible, for example, that in any community, be it a family or any other community, two people live side by side. One of them has the misfortune after some time to have an attack, and so he is transferred to a psychiatric institution. Now, of course, one can treat this person in isolation. But if one does so, especially if one forms one's view from the isolated observation of this person, then in many cases one will actually only fall prey to a thought-mask. For the case may well be, and in numerous cases is, that another person, who lives with the person who has become ill, or who has become mentally ill, let us say in a family or in some other community, actually has within himself, let us say, a complex of forces that has led to mental illness in his fellow human being. So, we start with these two people: one person, A, has the attack, from a psychiatric point of view; person B has a complex of forces within them, of a psychically organic nature, which perhaps, if you were to look at it in isolation, shows what is called the cause of the illness in individual A to a much greater extent. That is to say, B, who is not mentally ill at all, actually has this cause of mental illness within him to a much greater extent than A, who had to be taken to a sanatorium.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"On Psychiatry","site_heading":null,"date":"1920-03-26","location":null,"word_count":262,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/en/ga/314/1920-03-26/p014","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/p014"},{"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/p014","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.

Sehen Sie, es ist zum Beispiel möglich, daß in irgendeiner Gemeinschaft, sei es eine Familien- oder sonst irgendeine Gemeinschaft, zwei Menschen nebeneinander leben. Der eine hat nach einiger Zeit das Unglück, einen Anfall zu bekommen, den man also in das Gebiet des Psychiatrischen versetzt. Man kann nun selbstverständlich diesen Menschen isoliert behandeln. Aber wenn man es tut, namentlich wenn man sich die Anschauung bildet aus der isolierten Betrachtung dieses Menschen, dann wird man in vielen Fällen eigentlich nur einer Gedankenmaske zum Opfer fallen. Denn der Fall kann durchaus so liegen und liegt in zahlreichen Fällen so, daß ein anderer, der mit dem Krankgewordenen, dem psychisch Krankgewordenen eben zusammenlebt, sagen wir, in der Familie oder in irgendeiner anderen Gemeinschaft, eigentlich in sich den, sagen wir Kräftekomplex hat, der bei seinem Mitmenschen zur psychischen Erkrankung geführt hat. Also wir gehen zunächst von diesen zwei Menschen aus: der eine Mensch A hat den — psychiatrisch betrachtet — Anfall; der Mensch B hat einen Kräftekomplex in sich, psychisch organischer Natur, der vielleicht, wenn man ihn so für sich betrachten würde, dasjenige, was man bei dem Individuum A die Ursache seiner Erkrankung nennt, in viel stärkerem Maße zeigt. Das heißt, der B, der nun gar nicht psychisch erkrankt ist, der hat eigentlich diese Ursache der psychischen Erkrankung in sich in viel stärkerem Maße als der Mensch A, den man ins Sanatorium bringen mußte.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":245,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/314/1920-03-26/p014"}],"english":["GA 314/1920-03-26/p014"],"method":"identity","confidence":"medium","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":245,"en_words":262,"ratio":1.07,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"verified","verified":true,"evidence":["length","meaning","audit"]},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.01,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":2620,"original_word_count":2592,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","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"},"entity_parity":{"status":"ok","checked_against":["GA 314/1920-03-26/p014"],"missing_from_translation":[],"present_only_in_translation":[],"bead_confidence":"medium","note":"Every load-bearing name in the German counterpart appears in this English passage.
