But is it a belief? Or certain knowledge? Something to contemplate... Muahaha

Raising baseline takes decades of constant work. I am a believer of it.

It depends on the lens. I can argue that we are really good at medicine and it's true under some pragmatic criteria. Yet we peobably only know like 1% about animal cells. I think any good doctor should be able to tell you that. But again, you're failing to see the crap that goes on in hospitals. Who to blame? I won't decide that. But it is a dirty job.

There are real limitations, that is real. And it is necesary to remark that the profession puts extreme pression for the doctors. It is not a joke to have another's life on your hands. But I think most problems in health system just come from bureaucracy and bad politics. The modus operandis of medic appointments are very outdated. I don't even want to imagine the negligence and corruption that has happened and continues to happen in some hospitals. Is easy to be blind to that.

Oh of course. Overworking is like 90% of problems across any workplace and profession. It is baked in the health system. I don't know why, I would have to study the history of it to know how it got to that point. But it is just so typical of doctors and nurses. Even the way they write is coopted with artificial rush. The only way to reform this kind of things is through laws is my assesment.

Wait till you experience abstinence. P.S: coffee is not really unhealthy, plus has antioxidants etc, etc. But it is addictive and will make you act like so.

The biggest problem we see in the health system is that it prioritizes how to treat symptoms instead of root causes. Today understanding root cause of illnesses is just secondary. That's where it falls short. Because it is actually incredible good at treating symptoms, god-like level. But any cause not understood is labelled as "idiopatic" and put under the rug. The reason is because it is way more hard to find the root cause and solve it. It would lead health institutions to bankrupcy. But that's where the definite cure lies. So how do we upgrade the health system?

Going off caffeine as a daily user you will be depressed for days. If you want to know what depression is, go off caffeine.

That would be like super-human. You would literally trip on caffeine. I've been off for 1 week and 30mg present in a tea feels amazing. A helluva drug.

Imagine a religious person coming up with coffee products, that's what these coffee cups and sayings are: This is the correct cup : Looking for these pics I am coming to realize that conformity is just a particular consciousness state. More or less dense depending on the psychological makeup of the person I guess. This is a perfect example of conformity justifying an addiction. And conformity is an addictive state in and of itself. What makes caffeine so addictive is that it raises your conscioussness a bit. Just like hard drugs. You can potentially use it consciously and in moderation. But getting to the point of not funcitoning before having your coffee you're doing something wrong.

The model isn't even for individuals. You can act and think like a chimp, but if you enter a higher stage society you will move upward by osmosis. Fun fact, I live in a mostly blue society.

@Yimpa Hardcore student right here...

Don't dismiss professional advice so easily... Sometimes the pros of medication outweight the cons if you're in a really bad position. It will help you to think better desitions in a position without the constant pulling of your psychological problems. Then stoping medications with the needed help is part of the process.

Hard to say how my transitions looked like. That's a good question. I am going through a more orange phase for sure. Valuing hard work to the cost of added stress. On the other hand watching some actualized.org episodes requires you to be yellow or above. Not necessarily, but the way I integrate them then yes. Also I didn't really transcended red, I just spend less time on red moments and move on. I enjoy watching some metal singer make those growls screams or an action anime. I am enjoying Full Metal Alchemist for example.
