RE: Psychology Addict # 60 | A Journey Through The History of Madness.

in #psychology5 years ago

Another amazing and very interesting post! What i find fascinating is how we move forward. Through the course of time we had blood extraction, lobotomy and other ways that nowadays me even consider a criminal act but it was all for the sake of those sick people. Ofc there would be many times that people without actual issues would suffer just because someone said they have a problem and need for a example a lobotomy. Politics and stuff also had they fair share regarding the whole thing.

Deep down though the actual scientists and some other philanthropists wanted to help people in need. Each one of them tried to help in his/her own way the amazing is that the next generation of scientists either based on these previous ideas, or evolved them or even triggered their brains to actually find a more viable solution. In other words it's like we have a longass stair and each step forward we take is thanks to our previous one!

therapy aims at helping people to deal with their emotional suffering and uncover the causes that gave rise to their psychological issues (e.g. personal history or patterns of relating to others).

How amazing is that we came to this. Just by "simple" talking we can help other people change their whole lives. Nowadays i think a lot and i mean a lot of people face many issues that derive from their past experiences (bullying, abuse,immaturity etc etc). that issues may lead them to hideous actions like, abusing-bullying others, assaulting, harassing, be illogical, even hurting both other sand themselves. That behavior can change with just a couple of hours of talking and ofc self effort. I think the hard part is for the person to understand his/her issue and decide to change!

“to protected the mentally ill from society”

that phrase summarizes everything, also it reminds me of the new Joker film :P

First of all thank you for saying the following:

This is true, true, true and I wish more people understood this. More often than not, all individuals undergoing psychological distress need is to have someone who objectively and non-judgmentally help them to restructure their mode of thinking and, subsequently, reorient their approach to life. After all, as I stated on a previous post :

there exists an inner self-healing, self-righting capacity that people mobilise – provided that they have the right tools - no matter how emotionally troubled they are.

It's wonderful having you around in the Steemit community once again my dear :)
