Also, doctors once knocked me out by accident. I got locked down for like 3 weeks and 2 nights in a row they had to drag me to bed because I was 100% KO.

I'm sorry that doctors made a mistake and knocked you out. I am missing part of my stomach, part of small intestine and part of my large intestine because of such a mistake. However, I know that I need treatment.

It's different, your stuff has been studied. Being crazy is all neurological and that area is 99% unknown. Doctors are guessing, I don't like that.

Do you know what a placebo controlled trial is?

I also rejected going to therapy every single time, it's all bullshit, it's all jabber-jabber, no real science.

I believe in real medicine. Psychology and psychiatry aren't real science.

You realise that you don't have to have any understanding whatever of an illness to treat it right?

This is thanks to the placebo controlled trial.

Neurobiology is real science but, well, they're still nowhere near developed enough.

I am currently finishing my neuroscience degree. I have depression too, and take 150 mg daily of venlafaxine.

It has helped me greatly.

They even did a MRI of my brain. The only thing they told me? "Your brain activity is above normal".
G-fucking-G, morons, how much did you have to study to see that the screen lighted up more than average? 🤦🏻

They told you in such simple terms because you are not a neurologist, as you have clearly demonstrated.

Neuroscience is cool but it's nowhere near to being able to treat real people.

...

No, it absolutely is.

I am one of those real people being treated.

They're guessing what drugs to give you and it's all based on your "feelings". What real science puts feelings as a centerpiece of a diagnosis?

Be warned, most antidepressants take approximately two weeks to start working, around the length of time it takes a newborn neuron to mature.

Feelings are real things, emergent phenomena of a complex brain, and can be studied.

Neuroscience, for example, is mapping out reward circuits in the brain as we speak.

Nah, fam, they're INTERPRETATIONS and, as such, SUBJECTIVE and subjective stuff can't be part of any real science.

You are not only ignorant of neurology, but science in general too. There are subjective models even in Chemistry, such as the hard-soft acid base theory.

(Which none the less does an excellent job of predicting metal-ligand interactions.)

I trust that, one day, neuroscience will reach a point where it can actually cure people and basically just be another regular part of medicine. Right now? It's closer to homeopathy than to anything actually effective.

lol

Homeopathy is literally nothing, and cannot, according to basic physics, actually work.

Well, the use of literally no dose of a substance.

Well, neuroscience is so underdeveloped it's closer to that than to anything that should be considered "science".

lol

Another demonstration of your ignorance.

Neuroscience has already helped wheelchair bound people get movement again, already produced effective treatments for neurological disorders.

And even if it were as "underdeveloped" as you claim, it STILL would be science, because whether or not something is science does not simply depend on how "advanced" it is deemed to be. You can do science with a pen, paper and your eyes.

Physiotherapy? Fuck'em, I just gave him some pills and now he can walk!

Usually, neuroscientists tend to be rather "humble" and "realistic" and they know that their field is still in its infancy.

Ah, LM22B-10, LM11A-31. I wonder how they'll go.

lol

I am aware that the field is in it's infancy. However, this was not what you claimed earlier.

Don't just try and change what you said in an attempt to not be wrong, I can scroll back.

It's underdeveloped and, as a result, rather useless.

Not at all.
