Why are you a "p-psychologist"?

B-because I am actually a neuropsychopharmacologist.

If you're not Dr. Jordan Peterson don't bother, he already won Psychology so pack it up and go back to your books.

D-didn't prevent C-16 f-from becoming law now d-did he?

allrighty explain me why i have hddp, since i can remember myself

Mirin'.
What are your thoughts on the effect pornography has on the brain?

...

S-same as sugar, cocaine, and video games.

>hddp
Because you abused hallucinogens.

Video games no good lad?

...

It all d-depends on what you want out of life man.

Look, your brain works on feedback loops; if those loops tend to cause harm, we call them addiction. If they cause side effects from discontinuation, we call that dependency. If those side effects are dangerous, we call it withdraw.

Sugar, cocaine, video games, and porn all cause dopamine release which feeds that loop.

Sugar tends to cause cravings with disuse.
Cocaine causes compulsive reuse.
Porn causes sexual side effects.
Video games? Tends to cause boredom.

Does that make any of these things inherently bad? No, in moderation, all four of these things can help make you more productive and make your life more enjoyable.

But some of them have a very very low therapeutic dose and high abuse potential (cocaine), where as the others tend to be less harmful.

So, are video games harmful? That depends; are you playing them so much your health suffers? If so, then yes. If not, then probably not.

Good morning! I hope all your days go as well as mine does!

Thank you very much for this information.

M-my pleasure.

Morning Reimu

I n-never asked you to believe me dear

How does one reverse the ill effects of overstimulation? Pure abstinence?

*blinks* Y-your brain reverses it quite well b-by downregulating the amount of receptors you h-have, making it less and less enjoyable as t-time goes on.

We call this "tolerance".

Morning Alice. Quiet morning today. Doing okay in myself so how are you doing?

I h-have heart burn. And it's b-been quiet all week.

I'm in the wrong picture!

B-be glad you were in the picture at all!

your patient
your analysis
no personal political bias

What! You say that like you might cut me out of the album at any time!

quiet in your threads, or your life?

N-no thank you.

No, j-just hard to find a good picture w-when you can't search!

Both

I'll give you an old favorite then! I used to use it quite a bit, once!

being a neuropsychopharmacologist , ew , why not a psychiatrist or worst.. a social psychologist.

Clinical/pathologycal psychology + criminology student here

*blinks* Are y-you getting your MD any t-time soon? No? S-so why are you bothering m-me about getting one?

I don't wish to become a psychiatrist because....I don't wish to be a doctor. Not hard.

Ah, t-thank you

I am having increasing problems with paranoia lately, overthinking things frequently. It causes a lot of stress if I can't get enough information to effectively assess what I have to work with.

reimu n alice = wife goals

did you studied biotech to be a neuropsychopharmacologist ?

T-that doesn't sound like paranoia dear.

Can you perhaps g-give me all the information of what is actually occurring w-with you?

W-what?

Were there any facets of your life that improved when you reached your current understanding of psychology?

What are some tips to make sure I stay on the path of self improvement? Well medicine help after I get it if it's the kind?

S-sure, my ability to help others

Do you put "blinks" when you think a comment is stupid?

If I have something occur to me, say a coworker gives me venom for a first time. I would consider all the information I would have about the person and consider what would possibly warrant the behavior. If I am not careful I can try working with what I do not have. Sometimes I realize that it gets decidely delusional if I am not careful.

*blinks* You've g-given me too little information.

What problems do you have?
What medicine are you thinking of taking?

J-just when the question seems off or obvious.

T-that sounds less like paranoia and m-more like ordinary judging of p-people.

opinion on self medicating?

Never. Do. It.
S-self medicating is VERY dangerous and n-never a good idea.

This is not an opinion. It is a fact.

What do you think about the link between psychology (or rather, psychoanalysis) and social sciences like sociology or history? Do you think it's possible to stablish this link?
I'm thinking about philosophers like Zizek for example.

Also, what is

psychoanalysis has b-been proven to be no better than placebo, so it has b-been by and large discarded in f-favor of more modern approaches.

So, no, it isn't possible to establish that link because it isn't science. It's proto-science.

That I l-love you one more

tfw self medicated hormones for 2 years now

Hello Alice I love your posts, you seem a caring person. I'm getting married next year and I feel that I can't deal with the anxiety of breaking with my former life. Any suggestions?

Are you doing some serious research on some interesting topic? I have the feeling that most of the people that study psychology dont even have research on mind.

If you h-haven't been getting regular liver enzyme tests, you are d-damaging your body beyond r-repair.

*blinks slowly* W-why do you feel like you can't deal with it?

It's a little odd to be engaged (meaning you are committing to doing something) yet unable to deal with it (meaning you aren't committed).

Y-yes actually

no enzyme tests, just on the lowest dosage that still has an effect. not smart but i was desperate and now i dont want to risk losing what ive got.

Ah, I was hoping for a bigger answer than that, like being able to circumvent communication issues with people through your understanding. I'm a musician, and I really think my hearing has improved since learning to play. Being able to hear what the difference between a gunshot and a car exhaust popping is, or dictating whether sound is truly coming from a direction or if it's just a reverberation. Quality of sound isn't something restrictive to music, but that's how my profession has helped me.

Have your ideas of life and the human purpose change with the education you pursued?

I meant that I feel that I'm not only adding something to my life, but also losing so many things from my actual way of living. Anyways thanks for the answer, that was kind.

My bad. Well it's generally just depression, which my apathy, malaise, "lack of courage" and just the rest of w/e bullshit I have going on which prevents me from putting effort into getting medication. The medication which was suggested was prozac. My problem is essentially in part at least what was described above.

Just wondering if there's any tips to just push through that besides perseverance and determination. Otherwise I'll just keep slugging along, it's not too bad though.

...

You are r-risking your life. I'm q-quite sure being alive is f-far more important.

Go to a doctor. Seek medical and professional help. Don't take medication without a prescription and doctor supervision.

I already knew h-how to do all that

Are there any sleeping pills that can be used frequently without causing irreparable damage?

What's your opinion on schozoid personality disorder

It's not entirely my fault I've been poorly diagnosed, user.

No. All s-such pills are for short term use only.

Get a sleep study done.
