And from this day forward, the BPS model of illness shall be forever known as psychosophistry.
I was self-employed at the time I got sick. I worked only as much as I wanted to. 15 hours per week if I felt like it, because freelance software...
Uh, that's The secret. Literally. Real professional work there. Let's make magical thinking great again.
Is there even data supporting this assertion at all? I doubt it. Mental health patients likely resent but do not reject their diagnosis. What...
Wow this is a treasure trove. It is full of relevant insights into how much contempt they hold for us and their galactic-sized incompetence. I...
Those papers all basically rehash the exact same ideas with the same logic and arguments. Eventually it seems they have to sort of reduce the...
