There is not a simple or satisfying definition of the normal, no matter the reference frame (the concept of normal in the case of health as opposed to the illness).

A principle of the crisis intervention is that the symptoms one may have are not an indicator of personality deterioration or of mental illness but rather these symptoms are seen as signs through which the person experiences a transition when suffering.
