Is psychology a scam?

You just randomly put names together who have almost nothing in common with each other to sound educated, huemonkey

Hanging is not how people kill themselves in this day and age. It is, however a very easy suicide method to fake. This was another assassination to cover up the pizza.

It seems to me that psychiatry and psychology are ways of measuring a persons adaptation to industrial society. Psychiatry being used when a patient cannot reconcile his 'primitive' behaviour to adapt to the system and psychology is just an extension of this by grouping people into masses and observing how they behave.

Notice how on facebook you see onions queens posting about tribal societies having next to no instances of mental illness (demon possession and spirits not withstanding). They don't record them as the same because these people have a society that humans were meant to create. When you pack people into monolithic, atomised cities where the only thing they can do is get a job or go homeless surrounded by strangers all day, then it can be a bit overwhelming for those who haven't adapted.

Don't get me wrong, if you dropped a Kalahari Bushman into Time Square, I doubt it would take him 24 hours to be detained. But he may never reconcile his behaviour with what's expected in New York because of a fundamentally different set of values he grew up with and the fact he was perfectly suited to sustaining himself before that.

Asperger's could also be another 'illness' simply because the sufferer is wary of obsequious strangers all around him, but it would have suited him perfectly in frontier times and long before.

Probably like 75% of people who do psych at university are doing it because they're mental and want to know whats wrong with them. Then, since psych phds are so competitive and the job prospects are vanishingly low, anyone reasonable either drops it before graduation or doesn't bother trying to become a psychologist. As a result people with mental issues are highly over-represented among registered psychologists.
Also psychologists are virtually all women, so you have the triple whammy of crazy + standard woman issues + female working environment. It's not healthy.

Sadly another case of 'dog woman'. Spends her whole life trying to select for a mate but is constantly filtering them due to bad heuristics, thus gets a dog which acts as a pseudo-spawn, and engages in mommy-behavior towards the system because she is emulating something that she does not have, upon realizing the source of the emulative behavior, the program terminates.

>Radin also ran a program to help empower middle school-aged girls
I truly hope she had a female following, a "fan club" if you will. Radin's suicide may make some of them question what they believe about society and women.

Metal illness rarely existed prior to industrialization because everyone had tight knit social support networks that kept people healthy and looked after them when they weren't. Plus everyone died before degenerative diseases like dementia could take hold.
These days people with mental illnesses are virtually always isolated and unsupported and when they become a problem they're handed off to the government.

You fucking idiot, she had two children and a husband.
Read the article you dumb cunt.
Look how pathetic you are, see a headline and immediately imagine a narrative that fits your beliefs.
Fucking NPC tripfag.

Psychologist reporting in. Let us clarify one thing, analytical psychology is the ultimate red pill, revealing the true nature of humans. Society freaked the fuck out and ever since has watered it down to become acceptable to the plebs. Elite use it every fucking day through politics, advertising and media. Why do you feel manipulated by the powers that be? Psychology. Why can’t you get in front of the trends happening in society? Others are using psychology in its true form.
To your question: weak people getting degrees and are passed through via weak professors that are to pussified and restricted to say NO! They got rid of the exams where experienced psychologists gave a thumbs up/down before you moved on. Now anyone can get the degree who is intelligent to retain the material, even if they don’t understand the meaning. It’s sad to see my science get wrecked, but it was the feminists who took over, used feels instead of reals and wrecked it. There are a number of us old school guys who hold the line, but holy fuck, is it an exhausting war. All the feminists still shake in their fucking boots when we show up for symposiums and lecture at ce units. They can’t look us in the eyes. The worst sycophants who work to destroy you when you walk out of the room.
Look for a male psychologist who isn’t gay: the only true holders of the science.

>Is psychology a scam?
for the most part yes

Most of these people get into psychology to "fix" themselves. Then they become supposed experts on human nature and their problems still persist. I think this is what fucks them up the most, feeling that they've exhausted all possibilities and there is no hope.

If not a LARP, how rampant is suicide in that field?

I'm just concerned that the rates are rising so dramatically. I walked through my old university the other day and there was a large poster which proudly proclaimed "Over half of our students struggle with mental illness."

Anything invented by the kikes is a scam.

A lot of people with mental health difficulties are attracted to studying psychology, as they believe they will be able to cure themselves and then help others. Especially women, who tend to be naturally altruistic, as well as more neurotic than men.

They are mostly contemporaries of one another, and mostly dark and off-putting. I'm not familiar with Vygotsky or Piaget, but the rest of these guys are virtually one with darkness itself.

You post enough that I hope you stay safe and don't leave too visual a trail here

Just because Freud discovered it doesn’t mean it’s not valid. People bastardize and fuck up discoveries all the time. Human nature is animalistic and Devine all in one, and someone was eventually going to understand the structure at some point. Just happened to be Freud, but others were already there, just not as influential. Mostly Germans. Psychology is the ultimate human science, more complex than cosmology and physics. We can’t let this one slide and acquiesce to the sjw’s. Letting psychology go to the left is like burning the library at Alexandria. I see all these fights along political lines like it’s to the death. What’s a political win when the left will continue to degrade the populus through the basic underlying mechanism of human nature? Grow all the food while they control and poison the water?

>A lot of people with mental health difficulties are attracted to studying psychology,
You mean women?

It's a soft science. So no not a scam per say but it's basically worthless. If we put all the effort and money from psychology into neuroscience we'd actually solve many mental problems.

Plus philosophy will always do a better job than psychology ever could at discerning the mysteries of the human condition.

Not much above the average last time I looked, but burnout is seriously rampant. As a result of 80% being women, actual suicide is low. Men commit suicide,women mostly pretend.
Not a larp, in the biz for 2 decades+ in the middle of lib Mecca.

If your analytical psych was as powerful as you claim, you would be able to deprogram leftist, and reclaim your field no?

Or you could apply it to sales and make yourself a billionaire.

What can it really do?

>analytical psychology is the ultimate red pill, revealing the true nature of humans.
Tell me more, user?

This guy gets it

Thanks for the concern. I’m pretty new to posting here, long time lurker. I worry about this, if unmasked it would be a really big deal. As in news would get involved.

Uh huh honey. :^)

>have children
>kill yourself
what an awful, selfish person.

though I agree with the sentiment, I disagree with the statement. A lot can be done with neurobiology, but most of what we consider maladies today are choice based and not biological in origin.

>Psychologists kill themselves
>The field is a scam
There are physicians that are drug addicts and fat. Does that discredit the health effects of drugs and obesity?

That's what I was thinking.

If you're surprised by cognitive dissonance, then you're probably its sucker

We are not that far removed from apes. With the potential of genius. Add those two together and what have you got? Society likes the genius part, but not the ape part in the narrative. Much like the idea that we are all good and bad, but we generally split the idea depending on who we are talking about. Humans want simplicity and consistency. Manipulating people is as simple as pretending you are giving both even if you have neither. Red pill: watch the psych experiments with capuchin monkeys and food tokens. Females traded sex for food tokens. A fucking monkey gets it, psychologists get it, people recoil in horror. Millgram. Studies: we’ll shock people to death if an authority absolves you of responsibility. Etc.

I keep wondering how old her children were
it's obvious that she was fully infected with the femen hysteria usually reserved for barren women who have hit the wall
she was married at 25, but I'd be willing to bet that she didn't have children until at least 30....maybe even later....too late to undo the mental damage done by not having children when she was in her prime years....her own children came second to her ersatz "children" (her pets and her cause)....even in her hysteric state, she knew that she was wrong and chose to anhero rather than continue to fuck up her own children (which include her ersatz children)
I wish more hysterical women would follow her lead

Yes. I think there is some positive metal affects of getting grief and shame Aires out, but we hand religion for thousands of years before psychology for the same purpose. Psychologist just tell give you an excuse to not blame your self, which doesn’t help and you have to keep going to the psychologist for more help. It’s under chiropractor as far as I’m concerned. I have an affluent aunt who doesn’t work and has everything see wants- her and her daughter see the same psyc. weekly for years and they still have “issues”. The psyc. will always say “there is more we need to work out” because my aunt is paying her bills. Fake and made by Jews

Was she married?

Sort of. In the secular west psychologists serve the same function priests/ministers used to. Like in those professions, you wield a tremendous amount of power over vulnerable people who trust you and trust in the authority of your credential. Ideologues, pedos, etc are sometimes drawn to this kind of human services work because it gives you access to victims.

I'm proof there's all kinds out there though. I've got a colleague who's a t_d proud boy type too. Its not all libshits, although like with everything else they've weaseled their way into a lot of the upper echelon positions.

t. Licensed psychologist

What makes you think I haven’t benefitted greatly from this? Just because you know something doesn’t mean you are able to overcome the weak masses who are either actively fighting or don’t want to face reality. Think politics.

> In the secular west psychologists serve the same function priests/ministers used to.

Ha ha, indeed. Do you believe in God, good doctor?

but she had a son and a daughter, at least according to the article

Everything you said seems pretty self-evident to me. But I am constantly reminded that most people are completely self unaware, thinking they are somehow not what they very clearly are. I think this
>We are not that far removed from apes. With the potential of genius.
Was something that I understood all too deeply and all at once in an anthropology course (not my major!) and there was this specimen of the earliest known homicide, it was an early hominid skull. And it just hit me all at once. We are just animals. And even animals commit murder. The only reason I don't commit murder is because I choose not to. Not because I fear the death penalty. Because I choose not to be a murderer. Not because I am under any illusion that I am incapable of it or any other horrific act that any animal or human has ever committed. *shrug*

This user is asking the right questions here

i have a friend who got a degree in psychology but ends up just working non profit. i didnt go to college but to me it felt like one of those indoctrination degrees. of course he became a leftist but i dont know if it's college that indoctrinated him or if he has always had left leaning views on the world. jesus christ man i dont even want to send my children to college anymore those fuckers should just go trade school and get married off young.
pity how we have regressed so much, but then again you gotta ask, if "progress" isnt working out, then there's really nothing to go back from.

No one gives a shit about psychologists bro. Certainly not enough for a news segment. "Local psychologist posts on Mongolian Horse Breeding forum" is not newsworthy. At all. Plus you talk like a fag and your shits all retarded.

No, but I present as a christian irl and believe christianity is the best tool for promoting social cohesion in European and diaspora countries. I'm not a psychiatrist though, so I've got a bunch of fancy letters in my title but MD isnt among them

Most people actively fight self awareness. When you start to see this dynamic in life, you first try to awaken friends, and eventually after the futility of this you see dollar signs.

I saw my Clinical Psychologist on tinder.

Whats scary is shes the best Psychologist Ive had so far, which isn't saying much considering the first 4 were pretty shit.

Im just a bit confused now. I just used the app out of morbid curiosity, and seeing her on there has kind of effected me in a way. Now she seems like a "normie" to me.

Side note: She looks a lot better in real life than her pictures, its odd to me that she isn't trying at all with her tinder profile pictures, theyre all candid and shit, but in real life she looks much better.

If you could program useless couch potatoes to be resilient and hard working, you could fix society. Can it do that?

Oh. Why not? What do you think powers these engines and turns those great gears in the sky?

A lot of people who go to shrinks themselves become fascinated. They look up their diagnosis, they wear it like a badge, they want to help others like them.

Just like spending a lot of time in a hospital as a kid could make you want to be a doctor.

Physics. I already got redpilled/bluepilled/however you want to put it on faith when I was an edgy teen. I've changed in a lot of ways since then but that's one genie I dont think I'll ever put back in the bottle.

psychology is being used against the american people, much like physics was used against Hiroshima

unless youre seeing and talking to demons, most of your problems can be solved by cleaning out your diet, turning OFF the tv and social media, becoming physically active, and finding a hobby to enjoy, like building furniture or learning and instrument or something
it really is that simple

I don't think Psychology is a scam. It's a way for the NPCs to learn what intelligent people already know. For example, an intelligent person knows they should avoid blacks. A stupid person counter with "b-but some black people are good" which I would reply, yes, but most are bad so if you avoid them all, you're making an intelligent decision. A psychologist would find out why blacks are the way they are. Bad upbringing, maybe, differences in their brain, maybe. But it's all just fluff and more importantly, it's something smart people already know. So, Psychology isn't a scam per se. It makes the stupid a bit smarter.

long time ago I had 2 different clients who were getting psych degrees to go into fields as experts in their areas of dysfunction
one claimed to have been ritually satanically abused and her graduate thesis was that she was making the case that dahmer was a victim of ritualistic abuse, this was when the case was new.
the other was studying multiple personality disorder and was somehow involved in some deep academic research studies and she never said she had it but she probably did, it seemed like it

Well, there's nothing that strikes me as particularly dark about concepts vs. intuitions or the categorical imperative.... but he does have a darkness about him if you look into his personal life. He had to have carried around a little guilt for paraphrasing Plato and Jesus, and probably never making any mathematical contributions like Leibniz. Then again, sterile blanket though he was, I still consider him superior to his peers, who gave absolutely nothing, and in the case of Foucault at least, probably did a great deal of harm to society.

Spot on. 80% of my job essential boils down to telling people this. I treat a lot of people with legit fucked up problems that requires a lot more thought and care, but it's insane how many people I see that just need a few of Jordan Peterson's patented dadpills to get themselves back on track.

Because in these times, fools follow the blind towards their own light. Smug psych shills like peterson push pill profits to fund lavish lives for themselves. Their cure for poverty and societal ills is mirrored in their supression of the gifted as a sweep of psuedoscience labels offered capsule corp soma for a brave new world to sedate theeeir clients. Most psychs are now glorified drug dealers with a license to kill.

> is psychology a scam?
psychology purports to be the scientific study of the mind

the phenomena of the mind are only perceptible to the individual consciousness

therefore it is impossible to empirically study the mind

therefore psychology is scam. That would explain why central figures in the field are jewish mystics and modern day shamans, like freud, jung, peterson, etc. Psychology is a complete joke, almost totally unworthy of consideration.

depends what you're shooting at

that's sad. i'm 36, should i marry one of these? i'm not that bad.

It does not matter. When a woman does not have children, she's empty and desolate. Does not matter if she was a raging leftist or even a wannabee tradthot. When that emptiness hits her and it's all over she has to choose a painful life of waiting to die or ending it as soon as possible.
Of considering how these NPCs are programmed to go running to the doctor to get doped up at even the slightest problem, the psych meds most of them are on don't help.

Psychology is a scam; Psychiatry is a science.

absolutely

Wrong, for the same reason that psychology is not a science. Psychiatrists are totally unable to explain to anyone what they are doing, its hilarious. Its total mysticism.

Strange that the one thing you definitely got right as a teenager was the one question that humanity has been fighting over for all time. Pretty lucky if you ask me.

So she was murdered. The list is getting longer.

I don't see how a good grasp of physics is at odds with a great governor. If conservation of momentum is true, then what caused everything to move in the first place? If the big bang theory is true, then what caused the big bang? If the quantum unit of existence does indeed exist, is not everything reducible to the same fundamental thing, acting in harmony as one larger thing that governs itself?

What a genius. And I dont mean for having some radical new understanding or something, but for simply noticing that what most people needed to hear was the most basic and obvious lessons that used to come baked in to any coming of age. Dude is making a fucking shitton of money. He can fill a theater better than most bands.

Kek I guess ignorance is bliss, friend

I think relying on it for answers is extremely hit or miss.
The study of the human mind shouldnt be laughed off but I doubt the ability to completely draw a box around all human actions and reason why they happened like a math formula

i have managed depression successfully with no pharmaceuticals with regular exercise, healthy diet, yoga, and deciding to live my best life.
it was severe in the past, starting about age ... i can't remember. probably 5 or 6. got really severe about age 10. self medicated some. overworked a lot. stayed busy. kept my mind off it. built a great career then suddenly one day i just couldn't function. i was breaking down. burnt out on a very successful career. passively suicidal.
i finally acknowledged some trauma was just not going to get better on its own, did EMDR. about 6 sessions. i no longer have anxiety. i no longer have claustrophobia much. i no longer lose my shit when something reminds me of traumatic events I kept burying. now i just go yeah, that happened, that's why my chest is tight. cool. it's a yoga night. or maybe it's a deadlift night because i have some anger to work out. but do fucking something other than sit on your ass and be a victim. and don't think that a pill is going to fix you. it won't. neither will a shrink. you. you will fix you.
but no, i don't think psychology is a scam, it helped me.
specifically emdr and cbt helped

Cool, let me know if you can find any actual problems with my simple and obvious proof that psychology and psychiatry are not science based fields, or even if you have anything interesting to say on the subject whatsoever.

i agree. these people seem well-intentioned. it's a shame.
