Controversial General Political Discussion

[Bisoromi Bear]

There’s a difference between a psychologist and a psychiatrist solis. I don’t take no meds.

"Mentally ill" doesn't mean what you're thinking then.
I guess you mean mentally deranged when you say mentally ill.
Psychotherapy is for people with mental illness.
Psychiatric medication is for people with severe mental illness who would hurt others over hallucinations/schizophrenia.
At least that's how it should be.
Don't you know how many people with 'simple' depression or lack of self esteem are prescribed psychiatric medication without being offered the chance to see an actual therapist?

Dude is literally saying people need psychiatric help for having opinions that go against his.
Though, I do think I was out of line to message back. I should have let him just complain into the void.

No, it’s not about opposing opinions. I said that not because of ideological contention, but because it’s palpable in this thread. For example c4N def needs that sort of help.

People get heated when they talk about their political views. C4N aint all bad, even if I sometimes think what he says is waaaaay out there. He can be delightfully positive and kind at times and was one of the only people (alongside Solis of all people) to show me any empathy in this thread.

It’s not about derangement or bad opinions. I do think there’s a lot of people in this forum with severe depression and mental illness.

I agree. Especially when the topic is personal.

It’s not about being unpleasant.

Maybe we’ll see Lavi

This is torture

 

[Okamakama]

It’s not about being unpleasant.

But it's also not your place to say that people need psychiatric help. Heck, it's bad for even psychiatrists to say that without having properly chatted with a patient. (My wife's father is a psychiatrist and he's said this to me personally).

Lavi is gone into the void. He's gone forever, my guy....

Get out of here you two
This is the politics thread and of you're not here to fight there's no place for you

80% of the adults are depressed
They give me this energy at least

I think most people die when school life begins tough

I mean, as I stated in my edit, my wife's father is a psychiatrist. He told me that it would be professionally irresponsible to diagnose people in such a manner or even tell them they needed it because it could actually do serious mental harm to them.

Fair enough. I hope you follow that example next time you engage with kiku or other transgender people in here.

I never called myself a saint, but I'd appreciate you not bring your grudges in here. I made my point - and shared my experiences which people openly attacked. I got heated. I openly apologised for my reaction and emotionality. Move on. I certainly have.

Hmm, idk about 80% but it’s gotta be up there. Sometimes it’s just hard to discern when someone’s actually depressed.

many professionals don't care , neither psychiatrists nor psychotherapists.
There are even cases of therapists manipulating their patients and planting false memories into their mind. Look it up.
A therapist actually tried to do this to me many years ago.

I guess some people who study anything psychology related only do so because they get a kick out of manipulating vulnerable patients.

Fair enough. I wasn’t trying to shame you this time tho.

Oh my wife's father told me some absolute horror stories (he lives and practices in Switzerland, but was originally from Germany). A lot of the bad times were from German and Swiss psychiatrists/psychologists. He feared they displayed some narcissistic tendencies.

The depression pandemic is worse than covid.
And anyone who is honest with themselves know why: too much meaningless work for nothing, overstimulation by mass media, social pressure etc...

Aight. Then let's bury the hatchet?
