true depression cure: use a rapid-acting glutamatergic agent like ketamine or a non-hallucinogenic psychoplastogen and low dose HDAC inhibitor, then coq10, zinc, magnesium, creatine then incorporate rTMS, VNS. this is probably the most reasonable solution i think ?
Love is a purely non-tyrannical Good because it abandons all illusion of wholeness or life. The Evil is that which necessitates a given Outside, but Love is already emptied into an Evil as offering no resistance, in thereof vanquishing an Evil. In that, it is the ultimate Good
@isolationmoder "A Clinical Introduction to Lacanian Psychoanalysis: Theory and Technique" by Bruce Fink is a good introduction before reading the seminars or ecrits i think, it grounds concepts in clinical practice so its less theory-focused
ppl online love intellectualizing their own neuroticism to make it seem like they're smart or more aware than other people and do this whole "ignorance is bliss" shtick but be very serious about it. no one ever wants to admit that their misery is quite boring and uninteresting
theres a deeply ingrained cultural assumption that happiness is superficial and melancholy is profound therefore displays of despair become a social signal of intellectual authenticity. people,regardless of how depressed,derive an obscene enjoyment of that depression in this form
@isolationmoder its a lacanian term its hard to explain . tldr its altering your own position towards your unconscious and your enjoyment on a structural level, it marks the end of analysis
@isolationmoder schizoid is entirely made of negative schizotypy traits i think from that detachment comes a general stereotype that they are a highly intelligent group of people(since asocial activity is used as cope) i align with the normal apprehensive eccentric type tbh more or less so ..
@zanyfen@JoshuaLWatson But again even with that its still worth reading him if you stop assuming the vitalist lens. I think it is precisely from Nietzsche that Deleuze basically loses the ability to articulate the death drive cuz he interprets the eternal return as affirmative(same with klossowski)
@zanyfen@JoshuaLWatson The sanitization is really unrightful. He does undoubtedly romanticize the vitalist noble human animal and i think in general the attempt to sterilize Nietzsche by Deleuze(which is already not an interpretation but rather a creation of a new philosopher) or Kaufmann is unjustifie
interesting is that to reject/affirm Hegel is to fall into a Hegelian trap because all his system explicitly thematizes & incorporates its exception so to identify yourself with/against would be to be eaten by Hegel, so shape of the critique tells more about the critic than Hegel
@anarchopteryx@erasedangelface Again . when i talk about hegel i dont talk about the panlogist interpretation. This was the starting point of the convo that my hegel is mostly zizeks hegel
@anarchopteryx@erasedangelface The virtual inevitably actualizing itself into the actual as a guaranteed process predicated on multiplicities already proves that deleuze is more of a teleologist than hegel
@anarchopteryx@erasedangelface Youre projecting spinozism & aristotelianism onto Hegel. Its not a seed growing into a tree. Its a system whose failure to close is its own ultimate truth. The resolution of the dialectic is not harmonious synthesis
