I think of Ido Portal, Peter Ralston, and somatic therapists. I think general fitness is great. However, I think people can come to see the body as just a tool of the mind, and not something to be cared for, looked after, and have a positive relationship built with. Here some ido portal: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lcJ8mCS5BN8 Here is a somatic therapist called Peter Levine: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s1RnTipiU_Q

Yo bud. Sorry to hear that for you. It sucks that you are seemingly suffering as you are. I sincerely wish the best for you. Firstly, I'll say whatever you feel is valid. Its there for a reason. It doesn't necessarily mean the thought you have is true. But imo its all serving some purpose. Secondly, it seems to me that you have some trauma to overcome, and that you feel lesser than because you don't have girls in your life in a sexual way. I think @Tyler Robinson has some wise words here: Imo believing you are lesser than because you don't get girls is a product of socialisation. I don't believe you need to be getting girls to feel fulfilled, which is what I think you really want. However, I believe that you think that getting girls will make you fulfilled, which is super understandable if that is the case. However, I don't think its as straightforward as just giving up these constructs. I think you need to find a practical way of actually becoming fulfilled, otherwise 'giving up these constructs' or 'raising your self esteem' can easily becomes another should. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- You'll probs be thinking about pickup/ game. And I see the following as both being part of that. I'd personally recommend the following two things: 1. Conversational skills training, and basic attraction training - If you have money, I know the 'ultimate man project' (UMP) product is well regarded (re attraction). Seems healthier than other stuff too. - Also, I'd go through a v basic social skills guidebook like this: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Social-Skills-Guidebook-Shyness-Conversations/dp/0994980701/ref=asc_df_0994980701/?tag=googshopuk-21&linkCode=df0&hvadid=310805565966&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=16570996892812841450&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=1006976&hvtargid=pla-319371346076&psc=1&th=1&psc=1. A decent amount of guys feel reluctant to do this but its helpful to get the v fundamentals down. 2. Modern trauma therapy - I.e. IFS therapy, somatic experiencing therapy I personally think the result you'll get from recommendation two would be dramatically more fulfilling than recommendation one's. But ye its up to you. I wish you well.

@Raze Lit, thanks.

Hi, If experimenting with ketamine whilst having a dissociative disorder, does this present an added risk? I don't have DID, but do have depersonalisation. I understand that ketamine is dissociative in its effects, so wanted to hear perspectives. Thanks in advance.

@Leo Gura we could have a continually updating whitelist re sourcing. And put that in the relevant forum guidelines. I.e. say in Netherlands where psilocybin is legal, or in countries where psychedelic assisted therapy is legal (there you'd source the therapist not the drug). Would be quite clear cut imo.

Nice one

Yes. Unless someone is high enough consciousness they haven't accepted significant parts of themselves. And, in not doing so, it will restrict the extent to which they can be an adequate therapist. Presuming they are a depth psychotherapist. A CBT, or EMDR therapist could get away with it tho i imagine

That's why you prioritise doing what is in line with your values. The world changes, but there will always be a way you can express yourself via a values aligned LP

I'd say its about getting really good at getting what you want, within the rules of society. I'd study George Leonard's book Mastery, look into the idea of deliberate practice, and creating personal systems. Examples of healthy orange, to my mind, are Cal Newport and Valuetainment. I'd try and get access to mentors whenever i can too. And don't take advice from people who haven't achieved something similar to what you want. i.e. don't listen to minimum wage becky's advice on how to get rich. or listen to elon musk about how to best throw a basketball.

It means Internal Family Systems Therapy. Yoga nidra is body based btw, so could help your stated aims.

You could do noting meditation whilst slacklining or other types of meditation, i.e. non-directive, or body based meditations such as yoga nidra Also, would v much recommend IFS

I think it would depend on what metric you used to define highest. That said, I agree with @xbcc that Andrew Tate is indeed the highest

I presume you asked why re the trauma part. Because if you're traumatised you might have a part of you that is scared of succeeding. For example, when you were a kid people may have picked on you when you one a prize at school. So, that part may, when it notices you are about to succeed, make you really exhausted whenever it thinks you're close to doing well at something because its still scared about being picked on. So, if that part is active in that way, no matter how good your system you'd always be restricted from doing well because of that part. Unless, you included addressing that part in your system. --------------------

I saw results after my first session. In terms of long term results, I haven't seen many

Is she shaming you for watching it?

I think you could have Quasi-Immortality. Something that makes it such that it is as if we are immortal, but we are not completely so. I.e. we could cure all fatal diseases but we may still be vulnerable to life ending by virtue of physical harm.

Yep, I've done them a decent amount. You're welcome

I'd also recommend TRE. (Trauma release exercises). https://www.trecourse.com/ Has short term and long term benefits.

I agree with why they are orange and green. However, I think there is also a lot of blue, as they moralise a lot.

I wanted you to speak to me in an appropriate, non-abusive manner. However, I don't intend to reply to you anymore now.

I don't like the way you're talking to me here.
