I'd ask them why they think that. And then ask the same of their justifications. I find people's arguments tend to quickly unravel after that, or they tell you stop asking questions lol.

@Illusory Self I'd do a small goal and a main goal for each task. I.e. Say you want to study a chemistry book for 30 minutes The small goal would be something to break your inertia. The goal being to get you started in a very easy way. For example, in the current example, you could set the small goal as, 'Touch chemistry book'. The main goal is what you actually originally aimed to have completed. Here the reading of the relevant book for 30 minutes. Hope it helps

@Raptorsin7 Your "incredible breakthrough"

@Raptorsin7 Was that in addition to the one you were telling me about on my journal?

@Zeroguy To me, psychic system essentially refers to the organisation of one's mind.

@Rokazulu I'm not denying there are benefits of meditation. I meditate myself a lot.

I'd go to a depth psychotherapy

More mental health awareness = More mental health detection = Higher reported rates of mental health issues.

Ye I agree. I find many meditative teachings to be disrespectful to the psychic system, and many parts.

Ye but in those very attempts to verify the solipsistic view there is a lot of psychological risk. Also, whether we consciously like it or not. Much of what we believe is because we hear it from a source we trust.

Lol come on dude. Its well known that solipsistic ideas can fuck with people psychologically

@bloomer That is funny af

Ye I'd hire a PT, too.

Great! Congrats mate

I'd probably listen to other women's perspective on this. Same way I listen to other dude's perspective on how to be attractive to women. Otherwise, you get the, 'I got knocked out by mike tyson' advice imo lol

My other thoughts would be to make sure your fundamentals are all there: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLerFT-XxztEalxbpIRFxjjDJs6XYwHsSa

@Kid A Okay gotcha. Perhaps I mis-demographed you then

Yo dude. Here are my thoughts. Different demographics come to pick-up. Some guys are socially 'successful' already, and want a means of maximising there 'success'. Some guys want to move up a level in life. Some guys are deeply traumatized folk who are looking for emancipation/ liberation, and see pickup as a means to this. I'd put myself in that latter path. However, those coming from the deeply traumatised demographic have to play their cards differently in my opinion. Folks from other demographics will give advice based on their experience on life and pickup. However, it can be retraumatising to deeply traumatised folk to engage with pickup and actually make them end up in a worse position. I'd move away from pickup right now. Move away from stage orange oriented activities, and into stage green activities. And, in my opinion, whilst some PUAs can masquerade as stage Green, they are still mostly stage orange, if not red. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Modern mating explained by David Tian would be a useful series for you to watch imo. I also currently of the mind that IFS with a level 3 IFS level practioner is best means of emancipation from a life of trauma. That and analysing whether you may have learning difficulties or physical issues, i.e. thyroid. ------------ Also, I'd keep in mind that the way PUAs market is like crack for a young male traumatised brain. However, that doesn't mean its right for you.

I would say: Curiosity · Compassion · Clarity · Connectedness · Creativity · Courage · Confidence · Calm

Why do people do what they do?

I hear good things about Somatic experiencing.

Ye there's a halo effect around attractive people. Status being something is attractive thus generates a halo effect. The halo effect works by making everything about that person be reflected more positively in the eyes of the attracted.

Hey folks, Intro Wanted to share my experiences with IFS therapy, and make a recommendation to others regarding it. I understand numerous members have engaged with the modality. My experiences with IFS treatment - Non-IFS institute practioner I've been involved with IFS therapy since 2019. However, I have been frustrated with my healing process regarding IFS. This has always been a paradox for me as the modality was always marketed as a quick and effective form of healing - a groundbreaking approach. However, upon seeing a new therapist I understand why my experience has been like this. Up until now, I had not been seeing IFS institute levelled practioners. To my understanding, the institute is the central body for IFS - formed by the modality's founder Schwartz. I had presumed that if psychotherapists put 'Internal Family Systems' in their bios, or 'IFS trained' in their bios, that they would all be adequately trained. My new experiences with IFS treatment - IFS institute practioner However, now I believe that is not the case. I have had two sessions with a level 3 IFS practioner and the approach is completely different. It ticks all the boxes of what I previously was looking for. In retrospect, I feel really misled by the previous therapists, and think IFS has a really problem with (to put it strongly) charlatanism. I think this is because the modality is so new. My advice I wanted to write this so that other might take this into account when seeking IFS therapy. My recommendation being to get an IFS institute levelled practioner. Also, I wanted to express my experiences too.
