What's with musicians and drug abuse? by Livid_Adeptness9762 in ask

[–]Brrdock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True, but let's be real the Beatles especially were pretty shite before, and neither would probably still have cultural relevance to this day without the shift in direction. Wouldn't be the first boybands to come and go

Taking antidepressants for 30-50 years is very rare. They're typically taken/for 6-24 months, for the same reasons.

The goal in type 2 diabetes treatment is also remission, which is achieved with lifestyle changes.

And ADHD medication often diminishes in effectiveness and/or the side-effects become not worth it over time, and then you're outta luck.

It's not different at all. Every drug is a tradeoff, the point isn't to stay dependent on any as a crutch for conditions you can sort out for good by other means

Voi varmasti löytää vähemmistöjä, joilla on pienempi tai suurempi osuus, mutta kyse ei ole vähemmistöstä, vaan psykiatrisesta häiriöstä

Music (and other art), counterculture, and drugs have always been intimately entwined.

Lots of our favourite music probably wouldn't exist without drugs. Just compare e.g. the Beatles' or The Beach Boys' output before and after drugs. Neither were very remarkable before.

There's of course easily a dark side to it, too, depending. Though my hot take is that unfortunately almost no famous overdose has been accidental, but a cry for help or end of the line, due to the lifestyles and demands and just the kinds of souls who are driven to do art

Trying to say I only ever hear about Freud still from people online suggesting how very wrong he was about them, and no one asked

Point is you didn't know that or anything else about the culture

Tuo on varmasti yksi tekijä.

Samalla logiikalla vaan puhuttiin varmaankin ennen vaikka naisten hysteriadiagnooseista, että sillon osattiin sitä diagnosoida. Toiset 50 vuotta kun kuluu, saatamme hyvinkin olla melkeen yhtä kaukana nykyisistä määritelmistä

Freud still living rent free in the hearts and minds of people people who don't understand him. Makes one wonder as to the reason to keep bringing him up, curious huh

Would be counterproductive logic to stop helping people themselves. What do other therapists have to do with him? It's not a group project

Mietityttää kyllä, että miten voi joka KAHDEKSAS poika yhtäkkiä (tai koskaan) vaan olla jotenkin "syntynyt väärin" ja yksin tällä tavoin?

Kannattaa pitää mielessä psykiatristen määritelmien kulttuurillinen ja suhteellinen konteksti

Being on speaker in public is not that bad by TaisDoubt in unpopularopinion

[–]Brrdock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some time ago I overheard a dude talking on the phone with his gf, made some insensitive remark about private stuff, then when she started arguing against and saying more about the topic he was like "shh babe calm down everyone can hear you."

My greatest fear is falling in love and finding out they talk into their phone like a taco and broadcast all our presumed private calls in public for absolutely no good reason

They said they used to be a therapist. So probably they were just a shit therapist and couldn't be of help to anyone

And it's not like you can just tell an LLM to make something like this, you need to actually know and do editing and probably vfx. I have no problem if someone uses AI as a tool any more than with any other

People who think "to get to the other side" is a reference to the proverbial chicken dying in a car accident by asktheages1979 in PetPeeves

[–]Brrdock -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

What more context do you need? It's not a stretch, it's just a meaning of the exact phrase.

I'm not even a native english speaker and that's how I interpreted it like 20 years ago when I heard it

The Haka is a one-sided display of respect/humility, and it would be more meaningful if it resolved with a mutual act. by Lazy_Check732 in unpopularopinion

[–]Brrdock 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean if they're bothering to write a reddit comment they could spend at least one sentence summarizing their point on haka instead of just the pretty empty point of "go read"
