A little less but almost
I do view human behavior in the context of evolutionary biology, but evolutionary psychology is rife with nonsensical just-so stories.
The antidepressants they gave me didn't really do what they were supposed to, still working on those, but how they taught me to cope with stress still helps.
I think evolutionary psychology have it's merits
I've had my interactions with psychotherapists and psychiatrists though, neither has helped me much because it doesn't seem like the field of psychology knows how to help men
@mikeflarkin people not to talk about their problems that’s the only healthy way to get rid of them
Heck most psychology do, the problem was when they declared everything a social construct
My father took antidepressants and they also didn’t help
Antidepressants work differently on different people. Exercise is the best consistent thing across all stripes
@Montgomereeeee that was a big part of it, but the basic yoga and breathing exercise helps too.
It actually got better when he stopped
The only merit I see in evolutionary psychology is collapsing the pre-scientific bifurcation of physical and mental.
my therapist treats me like a broken woman and gives me exercises that I just end up not following because I'm not really inclined to, you could say that's my fault as well
I already know I'm not going to be on antidepressants for the rest of my life though.
I would put it as a friend told me
in regards of tims video.. i guess japanese laws that demand sterilization to change gender weren't as bad solution ;D
"They might find a tool to actually understand the mind in the future, but right now the psychology academia is a joke"
I’m not sure about that I do think it crosses a line @⛧アシュトン⛧
hey nobody is forcing them to change it on id
Yeah but they are being forced to become sterile
but in this case it'd solve problem, base the entry to bathroom etc based on gender in id
nobody is forcing them
@devpav I find physical and mental a meaningless distinction myself, it's all operating on the same substrate
if they change the damn gender they will not need those parts anyway
>building private unisex bathrooms instead of gas chambers for the radical insane 0.03%
but mind/body dualism is such a hard concept to overcome for many people
They are when they choose to
Sorry
but if you're a woman
Think of it this way: The body is our best means of interaction with the world. Getting better with the interactions of our body with the world is the best way to realign if there's something going astray with the mind.
you don't need a friggin male parts or organs
Yeah agree
But still
Mind-body dualism seems fairly hard even for neuroscientists to overcome.
Not for me i cutted a rat's brain after fucking it with stress and it was different(?)
