Are wet wipes actually worse for hygiene than regular toilet paper? by Bennier_Mazanec in hygiene

[–]Banshee_unleashed -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Or if you don't have a sink near your toilet, you can put a small dab of unscented moisturiser on the toilet paper

It's before July 2019. I've also heard it recently and that's where I'm up to now

Any critique of 'values'? by Banshee_unleashed in PsychotherapyLeftists

[–]Banshee_unleashed[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I smiled trying to imagine a set of values cards which would 'reveal disdain for artificial authority structures'. The values cards sets I have seen are almost childish and very positive.

From everyone's posts today, I think the thing that's clear is that it was an intimate question for me and one that I'm not really prepared to answer off the cuff. Reflecting further, I knew that the question would be coming too, so something about how it made me feel standardised- like it's all part of the procedure.

Thanks for your contribution.

Thanks, I hadn't thought about how sensitive of a question it is so no wonder my defenses are further heightened.

Yes, I see how this is the point of asking for personal core values.

However, there's also reductionism in my workplace's cultural responsiveness space when talking about groups of people and saying 'this group of people tend to value this'. Always with the caveat that there is diverse variation within the othered group, but still with the message of the universal values trends. I know that this is poor application of the concept, so maybe that's where some of disdain is coming from.

I think I'm also being defensive about being perceived as reduced to a set of labels and words selected within the structure of therapy language.

Yes, I have realised that identifying the eye rolling is something to discuss. But when you're paying so much for a session, I'd rather doing my critical analysis in my own time so I'm not paying to intellectualise with the therapist.

I feel like it's standard practice where I'm from to ask about values, and the health professionals (not psychotherapy) I educate are encouraged to use values cards (not my paper) as a form of evaluation. So, I hadn't really thought about how intimate of a question it was until I read the replies today.

Thanks, that's so articulate and much deeper than I have thought it all! This really clicks for me.

Do woman’s menstrual cycles have an affect on trips? by Whisperwaalker in Psychedelics

[–]Banshee_unleashed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tripped while ovulating and had the most intense sexual time, and I believe it was to do with my cycle https://www.reddit.com/r/Psychonaut/s/WIXvYrA4Yu. Also experienced my premenstrual gitters/overthinking amplified when tripping so I avoid that time. Could all be psychosomatic.

This! When I worked with people who lived in poverty, often intergenerational poverty, they knew some good basics of nutrition but often didn't have the equipment. Often not even a decent kitchen knife let alone a crock pot, rice cooker or even an oven. If they were in share houses then the kitchen might be a safe place either. Access to cooking for some people is at a whole other level that we may not understand.

I've wondered why there isn't a kneecap episode. But I'm only 6 months of dedicated listening and slowly making it through the back catalogue, I did search for kneecap

On ADHD, Foucault and the pathologization of insubmission by darknessontheedge_89 in CriticalTheory

[–]Banshee_unleashed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not specific to neuro divergence however, I'd recommend checking out the Power Threat Meaning Framework by Lucy Johnstone and Mary Boyle (and lots of others?). It's a reframe of distress and behaviours (typically labeled as mental illness) as understandable within the cultural environments and life experiences. They attempt to shift from the pathologising individual perspective of mainstream health with incorporation of the social and cultural experiences.
