Today I went to a sexologist, and apparently she supports the fact that the MAP community exists

Here's your problem. Healthy people do not study any field in psychology. I've met several psychology experts throughout my life, and they were all among the sickest people in existence.

1) Healthy people have no reason to study it.
2) strong confirmation bias among crasies scares away the healthy people
3) Then, the crayies can among themselves produce ever-crazier theories that will drive people insane when studied.

It's an inpurity spiral.

@LukeAlmighty Your theory sounds interesting. But I don't agree with it. There are many psychologists and psychiatrists who are sons of bitches and are considered normal.

Not to mention that what you say is just a hypothesis based on a premise that you cannot prove.

Furthermore, the person who attended me is a doctor with a background in psychiatry and sexology. I'm not talking about a no one person.

I literally did a lot of research on this person before I walked into their office.

@nate_river
Ok, I warned you.

There are no right wing psychologysts for a reason you know....

@LukeAlmighty Yes, there are psychologists with a more right-wing view. I think you are a little uninformed about this area.

But I believe so, most are probably leftists. Because usually we are talking to people who deal with other people and this is something that normally people with a left view are more capable of doing than others.

@nate_river
Oh, you are a psychologist? That explains the bias :alexjonessmile2:

Anyway, I took the claim "there are no right wing psychologists" from Jordan Peterson. I hope the guy knows what he's talking about. And when it comes to the crazyness, that one comes from an experience.

One expert said I am so retarded because of adhd, that I will be happy if I manage to finish school for special kids.

Another expert unironically mentionned tabulla rasa in front of me, and started recommendingme some esotery books. That was a breaking point for me.

Do I unironically believe that all psychologist are sick people? No.
But I do believe, that the entire field is rotten to the core, and that I will get more psychological help from shitposting, then from "an expert".

@LukeAlmighty "One expert said I am so retarded because of adhd, that I will be happy if I manage to finish school for special kids."

Wtf????? Why someone would say it for u??? like wtf???

Btw I'm not a psychologist.

Sorry, I thought, that by "we", you meant "we psychologists"

@LukeAlmighty In this case the "we" was about "anyone who are not a psychologist"
