  1. What country are you in? Maybe it's different where you are. I think your interpretation is wayyyy off from the Spiral Dynamics model. Psychiatry here is basically all about quantifying subjective emotions and using research models to try and develop pharmaceuticals that sway these models. Almost pure orange. I don't even think the field originated during predominately blue times.
  2. Psychiatry is almost pure rational orange. There is little to do with blue in the field.
  3. Any chance of expanding beyond youtube to a different platform? For example: Twitch tv
  4. meh not true at all although there are a ton of really mediocre therapists so be careful depends on what the OP is dealing with
  5. A little back story: Herman Cain was a token black guy for the republicans back in 2012. He attended a Trump rally which he likely caught COVID at or due to the travel for and passed away a few weeks after. Now the people running his twitter are literally posting anti-masker stuff.... It's only going to get more and more crazy the closer to the election. this is going to make 2016 seem "sane and normal." This is one of the best examples of a low conscious ideology being confronted by their falsehoods and coping in incredibly unhealthy ways. Other examples of this are how conservatives continue to not support gun reform yet their children end up dying in school shootings. Death cult example.
  6. https://www.yahoo.com/huffpost/jaime-harrison-lindsey-graham-donald-trump-133052210.html A good example of conservative hypocrisy and cognitive dissonance
  7. A lot of it has to do with depleting clean water supplies. It isn't as simple as it just coming back through rain. It's incredibly wasteful and very damaging to the environment to upkeep factory farming of meat. Tons and tons of greenhouse emissions are put out through factory farming methods. A lot of it has to do with the land as well which could be used for forrest but instead is used for cows. Watch the video posted above. It briefly explains it.
  8. Untrue Many people have gotten their lives back due to them and grown immensely. You're just focusing on their negatives which many medicines have. You mentioned Ayahuasca in this post. Are you going to mention how at every retreat there is always someone who leaves seriously messed up and ungrounded?
  9. It's kinda where I'm at as well. I'm focusing on my LP now in my free time but I also have to pay the bills. It can feel a little depressing. I have a decent job as well but it has been hit due to covid and it isn't my LP so I always feel a little dishonest working it cause I know it's not the work that I really want to do to bring me fulfilment in my efforts. I think gratitude is important. I'm in a better situation than most so just continue focusing on that LP and doing what you have to do to survive.
  10. One of the best things you can do for the environment is cut back on your meat consumption especially factory farmed meat. Look up how much water goes into making a McDonald's cheese burger.
  11. I would stop gaslighting yourself and breathe deeply into accepting the unknown. If thoughts that come up that don't feel right or are full of judgement and tension work on letting them go. Journal about the thoughts and feelings that come up, contemplate it and ask yourself where it comes from in your life. This is not an uncommon experience at all. Plenty of people have intrusive and unpleasant thoughts. They tend to flair up especially when entering consciousness work. Love yourself no matter what. Know this and reaffirm this to yourself daily.
  12. I really enjoy these movies because they really show how life unfolds and the ego evolves what are some good coming of age movies?
  13. I just look him up and good point. I'm just speaking in general here. I think there are outliers but in general the military tends to stay anti-partisan and just falls in line with whoever is president. It's actually a good thing it's this way or else it would be easier for a dictator to take over.
  14. 1970s people got away with stuff like this awful optics here and a poor comparison that is far too simplistic and offensive
  15. Active duty? I think some high ranking retired officials have but the military itself tries to stay far away from partisan issues.
  16. I think you're basically gonna stay stuck in the conformist stage if you're a military man. It's not really possible to make it in that institution to some really high level if you aren't a conformist to the group ego. Perhaps the #1 position is reserved for one stage above to lead the rest of them.
  17. bad advice. that's not how muscle building works.
  18. I've been having gentle spontaneous awakenings the last several months. They are sort of unfolding on their own and it's pleasant. Thing is though after the recent one I had my appetite is kinda low. I've always had a low appetite that goes on and off like this for as long as I can remember and I got most of my calories from around 1-2 high calorie meals, ranging from healthy to unhealthy (burgers, bagles and cream cheese, mexican food, indian food) Thing is I've cut out meat (except fish which I eat daily) and am eating much cleaner so I'm feeling crystal clear however I'm getting less calories. My appetite however really only feels hungry for one meal. I tend to get hungry when I'm eating out restaurant meals. I want to make sure I'm getting between 2000-3000 calories a day. Anyone have any tips for improving appetite? I may just schedule my meals and make sure to eat. If it becomes hard to one of the meals I may just make a smoothie that's high in calories since they always go down easy for me.
  19. I have been on Effexor three times over the years. I actually found this one to be the most helpful for PTSD fear I've experienced before. I have mostly positives to say about this medicine but there are some things to know about it. You can't trip while on it. Don't mix it with psychedelics. I don't think it's safe at all and not a good idea. Also quitting this medication cold turkey is an awful idea. Do not do this. You need to taper off of it. I got very mild symptoms for just a few days if I recall. It takes me about 3 weeks or so to taper off it.
  20. nah I got a bit of a beer belly. I also want to get back in the gym and build up my strength. It's hard to do this if I'm not eating enough.
  21. This shit is as old as the hills. Every decade has a conspiracy theory anti government group based in something. At least during the 90s it was kinda funny when Bill Clinton was supposedly a reptilian. I think Nazi hate groups realized they could build a sizable following dressing their ideology up in some sort of conspiracy to give nutjobs some cheap thrills. It might not even been intentional.
  22. Yup, I could see a Bush V Gore scenario on steroids that could do a ton of damage to the current institutions. The well has been poisoned long ago when it comes to how the public trusts media. You will literally have a thousand different takes all arguing making it easy for a dishonest administration to push a BS narrative and steal the election. Biden is actually preparing an unprecedented legal team war room before the election to take any and every swing state to court where there is some doubt over the vote/suppression of it.
