You might be confusing mental illness with brainwashing.
can you explain the difference to me?
Yes I think I can. When were all in 'the truth' and 'true believers' we were brainwashed. This may have lead to mental illness in some cases but not in others. Brainwashing and mental illness are similar, may overlap, and one may lead to the other. I don't think they're one and the same.
To further explain: consider someone attending a hypnotist show. The person is picked from the crowd and the hypnotist has him believing he's a dog.
The person is brainwashed. But is he mentally ill?
