I have to say, the longer I spend in the trenches of community mental health where just simply being with the client in their pain goes such a long way, the less concerned I am with all of the little squabbles on here between various therapists

I have much less zeal about “real” therapy or even defending some kind of authentic psychoanalytic approach, and honestly I’m not even sure what that means anymore

It truly is just making the best of a bad job, however we can and for as long as we can

a “gym for your mind” will be the next breakout product / movement everyone reaches this conclusion after their ai honeymoon phase. yes you got the result you wanted—work done, app built, revenues up—but not the *feeling* of doing great work aka mastery idk what shape this takes: 3blue1brown-as-a-service? write for 30 min every morning? do we all take up knitting? but something has to change!

A secret about academics is they don't really read books. They read parts, pretend they read it all. Historians excel at this. I'm compelled to complete them, even if it's not useful. Yet, I feel shame when I don't read an entire book. Dumb. Read what's useful is a good motto.

The aim of mourning is not to erase the lost object. It is to allow the person to carry the dead, the lost, or the unlived, without being organised entirely around them. That is the difference between remembering and being psychologically haunted.
