I really admire Mark’s insights on psychoanalysis and dreams. His perspective makes him one of my favourite thinkers!

[@futures2247]

its not just psychoanalysis but the entire therapy industry that has no evidence supporting and it can be harmful and the harms are routinely ignored or downplayed - See Jeffrey Masson's work on the former.

Thank you. I’m not sure I understand what you mean. Could you say a little more about this?

[@CJ-kq3oh]

My physical health and relationships have improved significantly as a result of therapy, and likely would not have had I not gone to therapy. There are, of course, bad therapists who do harm and abuse their power knowingly or unknowingly.

[@CJ-kq3oh]

Solms is on the money. He just needs to abandon the philosophical materialist assumptions underlying his work.

@CJ-kq3oh I’d love to hear more about what you mean by philosophical assumptions..i think i understand what you mean

[@CJ-cd5cd]

@@waymaking23I’m referring to the ontological materialist assumption that the brain generates consciousness. I don’t think it does. I support the notion that consciousness is the most fundamental ‘thing’ out there.
