The usual pattern when a pendulum is out of balance, then released, it will swing past neutral into “are u effin kidding me” range the other direction before it gets moderated.

I think that is part of what’s happening here. I do know that some of the young men I work with on the spiritual side are getting some therapies that damm near sound like voodoo to me, but produce results. The state of treatment for PTSD and other psychological challenges is much more advanced than when I was trying to get my s—t together in the late 80’s. A lot more effective, efficient, and specific these days.

Young people tend to lean more towards the collectivist mentality, and the elitists behind the curtain encourage and exploit this existing social trait. They don’t create these divisions out of thin air, the divisions already exist in society and they take advantage. That’s the big secret that very few analysts want to”

Banks and Insurance companies can never allow freedom. Never.

The school of hard knocks has the best chance of curing leftists—but of course it is no guarantee.

If they were my relatives I would do nothing to ease their way—they need to build character and adversity is the only chance it will happen.

The problem is that the treatment for all these self-induced maladies is drugs. So kids end up on a cocktail of drugs that send them into psychosis when they decide to quit taking them. Then they need more drugs for that. All of this goes on before they leave high school. When they get to college, the parents are screaming for more therapists and all the drugs have to be upped due to the “stress”. Meanwhile, the kids are threatening suicide as if it is like “running away from home by hiding in the garage”. I know the person that fields those calls on campus.

If that was 100% true, AP, I would let it go...

This is a treatment that used for CPTSD (many traumatic events spread out over time - say a child that getting abused by an older family member). No drugs are involved in EMDR and this was ONE of the treatments I was talking about when compared to my talk/behavioral based therapy in the late ‘80’s.

One of the young men I am thinking of that received this type of treatment had survived 3 actual “lucky to be alive” suicide attempts. He hasn’t gone to college, but works as a delivery driver (21 years old). This was part of the solution for him.
