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.

>>737307899
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.

Never. Do. It.

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.

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.

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?

>>737308767
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.

>>737308368
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.

Everything is trade offs dear. The question is, is the trade off worth it?

>>737308944
*blinks slowly* You've literally just described the two traits which describe what you want, then asked if there was anything BESIDES those traits to give you those traits.

There's no magic bullet or secret mantra that can get you to a doctor and get you on a medication. It takes.....moving your legs....till you are at the doctors....to do that.

What would that intermediate step even look like? Going to the doctor then turning around and going home a few times to build yourself up? Going HALF WAY to the doctor?

L-look, if you literally cannot physically g-go to a doctor yourself, call the ER and have them pick you up. It'll cost hundreds of dollars, but you'll at least be on your way t-to treatment.

Otherwise, GO TO THE DAMN DOCTOR!
