    ADVOCACY OF KETAMINE THERAPY

    As a trauma survivor myself, I would not wish on anyone the work it took me to leave it behind. And I have willpower few can imagine, and fewer can muster, and I also have had friends, partners, and family to help me. So I can’t recommend this ketamine (or hallucinogen) model (when controlled) enough. If the problem is trauma (memory) it can be fixed. If it is physical (immunological, or developmental) the individual will permanently need drugs to compensate. But if it’s trauma this family of treatments is both explicable (we can say why it works), has only lovely side effects, and is absurdly effective. Depression is pain. And it’s pain, largely from exhaustion, and exhaustion from trying to avoid trauma – each ‘revisitation’ (of memory) which reinforces it. These treatments create distance (separation) that allows you to easily retrain your brain. We are not talking 10 or 20% effectiveness here. We’re talking +70% effectiveness. It works.

    (Truth in Advertising: No I have not had this treatment, and I don’t have need to, although low dosing hallucinogens is common among my peers, and I’ve considered it for reaching peak performance. The data is just very, very, impressive whether formal (ketamine therapy by doctors) or informal (hallucinogens with friends). My brand of Aspiness is a sort of OCD-in-thought that seeks order in everything, and chemical assistance helps me change context rather than work myself to death. lol Which I seem to try to do at every opportunity.

    PROMISCUITY AND MARKETS

    (important post)

    Promiscuity breaks the compromise between male and female reproductive strategies and undermines the necessity of the family as the first organization (production of generations), in the hierarchy of cooperative organizations.

    The French and Italians solve the problem through the sacredness of the family and ‘graceful philandering’ by both genders.

    Whether you adopt the zero tolerance of the anglos or the high tolerance of the french, is a choice of higher or lower stress.

    When we think of ourselves as equal rather than opposites that are compatible, and adopt individualism rather than compromise, we achieve in the intergenerational social order, what we achieve in the socialist economy: an inability to calculate and cooperate, and a destruction of the intergenerational means of production.

    All you do is give them validity with their fellows, and inspire them. The most negative reinforcement is to ignore people, not play into their game, and pay them attention. All SJW antagonism is a currency in their book.
