Psychoanalysis works for some people but not because of any truth in psychoanalytic theory. Its effectiveness is in the historically infallible combination of (1) belief in authority, (2) the ritual administration of secret knowledge, and (3) human stupidity. The patient emerges from the therapy feeling they have gained "insight" when in fact they are only entangled in the web of an elaborate linguistic hoax. It is placebo for the soul.

Psychoanalytic training is helpful butt undergoing psychoanalysis is even more valuable. The mental/emotional world is not like the physical world where we can move or push objects around to our liking. One can't move mental objects as in the physical world. Meditation is the only way to train the mind to be aware of all words and actions. Takes courage & fearlessness.. Most will "take the blue pill" and go back to sleep in their lives. It is a personal decision.
It´s incrediblehow people really want to believe that psychonalisies doesn´t work. I was on analysis and the result was exactly what they ae talking about. You would never understand anyway cause it´s impossible for people that didn´t do it till the cycle is over. And they will never understand. With analysies you overcome things that you didn´t even knew that were there. It´s fucking umbelievable what you feel in the end. But the process it´s not an easy task.
@Wolf17890 that's because people are scared of what deep inside they know is bubbling in their subconscious, i think... and yes, it's not an easy task at all. people usually think that you go see a psychoanalyst and you magically solve problems, when in reality it's not like that at all. it takes a lot of patience, willpower and determination.
Forget all this. See my video on "Handling Difficult People". These analysts believe their own stories so they are inclined to indulge you in yours. They "feel sorry" for you. Forget all that crap and just realize the MECHANISM that has been escaping you your whole life. Blessings and I invite you to the Truth.
@TadRapidly Yeah forget all these highly educated people and their evidence based nonsense! Some guy on the internet has discovered a MECHANISM that has escaped you your whole life. lol moron
@MrGrevy right, I'm referring to the mechanism of Projection. It might be escaping you right now...? ;-) They don't have evidence of jack-shit. Many analysts believe that blame is valid so they can't help anyone in a meaningful way. They haven't experienced true forgiveness--it's just a concept to them.
@MrGrevy Until one "wakes up" (sees the ego directly; a direct perception) one is still living in the egoic "bubble". That bubble sees attack as real and it sees blame and victimhood as valid states of acting / being. If asked what causes depression, every one of these analysts would probably say "it depends". No, in 99% of depression that is not the case. One's personal past has nothing to do with depression.
@MrGrevy Since most analysts are still ego-identified it doesn't matter what they might agree on or not; their conclusions will be based on their beliefs, not an actual experience of clarity. There is such an experience available--it's called enlightenment, awakening, Kensho, Satori among others. This clarity experienced cannot be meaningfully translated to another. It is a self-referential "episode" of waking up out of ego-identification. Each one of us will have this awakening, eventually.
@TadRapidly That's just silly. There's no evidence of that being true and not "everyone" will have anything close to enlightenment imo. Peer reviewed research is needed to verify claims. Sorry but that's just how it is.
@MrGrevy Agreed there is no proof. However, enlightenment is not that difficult to achieve, it's just overlooked. Psychology / Psychiatry deals in effects, not CAUSES. Psychologists don't know the CAUSE of depression because most of them are still TRAPPED IN IT. ;-) The cause of depression is this: Identifying with conditioned thought patterns. One's thoughts are taken as oneself. That's IT. :o)
@MrGrevy Some things are true whether you believe them or not. Yes, TadRapidly is correct and many have done the work to wake up and realize their whole life is bull----; just a bunch of stories we hear and re-tell ourselves and others. Beware of gurus proclaiming themselves as enlightened, selling books, tapes, seminars, etc. "If you meet the Buddha on the road, kill him" is good advice to spiritual groupies. There are peer reviewed articles, e.g. Journal of Consciousness, etc.
@TadRapidly Again, incorrect - not every person has an awakening. Using psychoanalytic terms to defend psychoanalysis doesn't really hold water. Research certainly doesn't support psychoanalysis.
@MrGrevy instead of overdosing on asshole tablets why don't you add something substantive to the discussion? All you do is contradict others with nothing added. Stop looking to "peer research" done by drones in lab coats. The key to true liberation is being handed to you on a silver platter and all you can come up with is "shut your face". LOL I can get more from a 4-year-old.
@TadRapidly Well, I hate to inform you but peer reviewed research is a good thing and far superior to your mysterious unproven "mechanism". The "key to liberation" lol what a joke. Your first mistake is thinking people need liberation. You have a very strange way of thinking.
@MrGrevy I know it sounds strange. It's the "normal" sounding peer groups that have millions of people addicted to mood-altering drugs. That's their "answer". What I'm offering here is the CAUSE, not just another masking agent. The cause of depression is being ego-identified (body-identified). The cause is believing you are your body. The enlightenment episode will SHOW you that you are not your body. And, no, you won't be able to prove it.
@MrGrevy does a young girl who cuts herself need liberation? Does an abuse victim need liberation? Does a child-abuser need liberation? Does a manic-depressive need liberation? I guess we have to define the word "need".
@TadRapidly "Manic depressive"? Haven't heard that outdated term in quite awhile. You know it's not the 70's, right? Do you really think you somehow have an answer that experts have overlooked? The idea that you think you can liberate people with that silliness is offensive. And no, those people don't "need" anything.
@MrGrevy Ok, so we're not on the same page. But "offensive"? The reason you think it is offensive is because you feel sorry for people. You believe they are weak victims and deserve to be pitied instead of giving them a real answer, an answer that will require some difficult, honest self-reflection. An answer that goes beyond BLAME. As long as you are interested in placing BLAME on someone or something you will never experience the liberation I am speaking of. This goes beyond blame.
@TadRapidly What on Earth makes you think I feel sorry for people? Nothing is further from the truth. The key to happiness is unconditional acceptance of self, others and life. You're really pulling things out of thin air. BLAME has no place in my beliefs. Keep making assumptions lol.
@MrGrevy Right, unconditional acceptance of self, others and life. And how many people do you know who live like that? Why do people go to psychotherapists for years on end? Because they are trying to place the blame! On the mother, on the father, on the siblings, on the world, on themselves...etc. The only problem these people have is that they are MARRIED TO THEIR INTERPRETATION OF EVENTS AND THEIR INTERPRETATION OF OTHERS. Sorry about the caps.
@TadRapidly I wouldn't harm a fly! I am a nice guy. I don't think psychotherapy is about blame but maybe psychoanalysis is. CBT and REBT aren't about blaming. Changing your thoughts is important, insight is pretty useless.
@MrGrevy :o)__I think the important issue is whether the therapist is ego-identified or not. If he is, then he still lives in a world where blame has a valid place; he still harbors anger, resentment, blame etc. An ego-identified person has not discovered what true forgiveness really is, therefore they cannot practice it or relate it to a patient. And yes, I totally agree--it is changing one's thoughts. But one needs insight into what makes a faulty thought and why we think them.
@katylunger Not really. He based his theories on a small population of privileged housewives. His theories are not taken seriously today. Strange and misogynistic man.
Pschoanalize that "dislike guy" that hits every youtube video. OCD u think?
