Your drive to write is strong. @eudemonism We are story makers. It seems part of being human.

Yes I hear you. I've got a meeting tonight. I'm still processing everything. The old life and the old ways are still fresh in my mind.

When dealing with other people there's always the element of trying to impress, expectations and let downs that they think they are in control of. Which they then reward, encourage or punish for. Genuinely this is how I feel it is. And it becomes a power struggle and rivalry and competing takes place. And there resentment all around.

Psychology is the study of normal behaviour. Psychiatry is the study and treatment of abnormal behaviour. 

I'm reading stuff bye Sigmund Freud it's really interesting.

Wow Eude....Sigmund Freud....heavy reading...interesting...

There are also theories from Carl Jung and Jacques Lacan...

All interpreted differently by the world of psychiatry...psychology...psychoanalysis...psychodynamics...

I believe it is good to have a knowledge of all and form our own opinions...

I hope that you get something out of the reading too Eude

This book has a section about brainwashing. It depicts six steps of brainwashing. So I quickly seen my life through the lense of brainwashing. And yea. I've done it. And it's been done to me. Big time.

Always like reading your post, I like your point of view, it's to the point, sweet and short.

I wish I could express myself like you. I go in far too much detail lol 

You might think you are alone in all of this... but you're not. What you write is very similar to what my son tells me how he experiences day to day life, so I do get it and I see how your life can be strugglestreet at times. But hang on, so is mine, but in a different way lol

Thanks for your posts! Wowsa for reading up on interesting facts like brainwashing by S. Freud.... I'm gonna have a read of it myself now, you got me curious!
