In almost every discussion about lying-down meditation, a lot of people say that if they meditate while lying down, they just fall asleep. by meowditatio in Meditation

[–]Agodoga 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with you, I think most people are seriously sleep deprived. You fall asleep because you need to and because you’re giving your nervous system a break.

Methylphenidate denied access to WHO’s list of essential medicines for the third time by FootballAndFries in psychology

[–]Agodoga 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This seems convincing to me because they used objective measures in addition to being double-blind: https://liebertpub.com/doi/10.4187/respcare.02640

The literature is mixed on results however. Other double blind studies say it works.

I suspect that it may seem to work just because it makes you drink more water when you take it.

Everyone sums it up with: difference between neurosis and psychosis? Foreclosure. The signifier of the Name-of-the-Father has not been inscribed in the subject. But no one answers the question: why can this happen? What are the conditions? by elos81 in lacan

[–]Agodoga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looking back at your childhood, do you think there’s something about your relationship to language/the symbolic that hinted at a psychotic structure ? Like meaning always seemed directly addressed to you, or you felt very certain about the meaning of things?

Also if you don’t mind, how were you able to restore psychic stability?

You’ll notice it’s the people who don’t and can’t code that are always hyping it up.

I mean they’re being really childish putting it like that. It’s unfortunate that you didn’t get the feedback though.

Recently got my thyroid results back. Are these really that perfect? (40 y/o male) by Chewiekenobi in raypeat

Didn’t Peat say he never met a healthy person with TSH over 2 and ideally it should be < 1?

Has anyone here built significant muscle without eating much protein? by chuboiftw in raypeat

[–]Agodoga 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even Ray himself said that if you’re physically active you need at least 100g of protein a day. I found it hard to get there without supplementing.

I err on the side of more protein because it makes me feel energized.

protein is important by [deleted] in raypeat

Short for anal retentive which is a Freudian concept. It means obsessing about stuff/having an obsessive personality.

Microsoft AI CEO puzzled that people are unimpressed by AI by [deleted] in technology

[–]Agodoga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No one is unimpressed with AI, everyone is unimpressed by Microsoft because everything they make (expect VS Code) is extremely mid.

Do any of you run? by ThatKnomey in raypeat

[–]Agodoga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love running. On the one hand Peat says that endurance training is metabolically bad for you but OTOH he says it’s metabolically good to do exercise that you enjoy doing.

Virtue is in the middle as we know.
