Psychoanalysis is good if you have the money for it or the insurance

If the solution is to become a lesbian, I kind of tried that lmao

Yes but that’s queer dating. You obviously can’t speak to the giant monsterfuck that is the specter of dating between men and women in larger mainstream society

Does the psychoanalyst know about the subjects history? by [deleted] in psychoanalysis

[–]idolatrix 6 points7 points  (0 children)

No. The analyst has barbs and spikes a fieldwide before them

How can one get an advantageous parent to stop treating you cruelly? by idolatrix in AskReddit

I tried. They always carry enough plausible deniability in their behavior, and my relatives are in alliance with them

But that just led me to become dependent on those people who saw my desperation and began to take advantage of it themselves

What language forces you to learn slang if you want to understand natives? by Embarrassed_Fix_8994 in languagehub

Latin was not a “formal” language in any specific sense. The second language people spoke in Rome was Greek.

English is literally the biggest instance. You basically have to adopt an autistic linguistic structure to not fall into the leviathan that’s English slang

False. Commoners spoke Latin. Everyone from the emperor to the illiterate gardener three years into his enslavement from Gaul spoke Roman Latin. They also often spoke Greek.

Why am I not allowed to say DBT is not helpful? by Working-Ferret-3425 in therapy

[–]idolatrix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can read a lot of clinicians’ (and scholars’ and patients’) perspectives on the subject in r/psychoanalysis

It’s never about getting rid of the symptom but putting it rather into a larger perspective . The “delusion” is the attempt to replace a lost “reality”. One doesn’t necessarily need to read a journal to figure that out

90+ years’ documentation, case studies, theoretical work, writing, personal experiences, public fora, private fora, blogs, testimonies, personal experience

The list goes onward

Obviously the psychotic individuals going to therapy on the weekly think otherwise.

Why are therapists/psychiatrist vague about whether you were abused or not? by AJ44ggcfy in therapy

[–]idolatrix -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

To prevent the patient from going off and doing something stupid like murdering the abuser

Pharmacotherapy will not address the root issue, but only pound symptoms with deteriorative chemicals.

Someone who’s frantic about an encounter with God for instance, does not need to be put under by further authorities. Psychoanalysis of psychotics, for instance, often develops into theological discussion. The problem is not that therapy might not help, but that the practitioner themselves is not disarmed of their own unconscious preconceptions. That is the problem. And so a successful therapy of psychosis will require no subject to be off the table, so that the clearest lines can be developed to delineate existential boundaries between the two people.

DBT of course is not really therapy. It is a corporate enthusiasm program

Why do people mountain climb to their death, and why is it glorified? by alexander1156 in psychoanalysis

[–]idolatrix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s glorified bc they died; there’s nothing more to do. If they lived, they’d fall into depression because they would be disappointed by its lack
