Manosphere Jordan Peterson - Internet Daddy Simulator, Post-modern Anti-postmodernist, Canadian Psychology Professor, Depressed, Got Hooked on Benzos

[frozenrunner]

I like Peterson, but why not pick a better drug?

Like something that would make you truly... euphoric, perhaps?

(lol dum man talks about spaghetti monster)

 

[sperginity]

Why the hell did he sign on to that prescription in the first place?

Isn't he a Psychologist? Did he really not know how horrible physical dependence on benzos is?

I mean, hope he gets better, but seriously there's no excuse and his provider should probably be in jail.

His book is about being an instrument for good for others to the maximum extent that it is possible for you, that perspective makes it very easy to justify taking a chill pill (esp when you're neurotic as hell to begin with like he is). He probably thought he could use self control to not get hooked.

And yes, he has mental problems, you can almost assume that of anyone with a psych degree. They are all trying to unfuck their lives via psychology.

Do you think they're gonna make him clean his room?

 

[LazyLizard]

after you finish making your bed and washing your balls how about you score me some pills bucko?

 

[frozenrunner]

Do you think they're gonna make him clean his room?

He cleaned his room....

... but he couldn't get his house in order

I meant that if it were a serious drug, nobody would tell you to take it as needed.

Did you miss the whole Oxcontin thing? They said that shit was safe.
When Xanax first came out its producers lied out their ass about its ramifications. Real talk, the people who marketed Xanax told the FDA that it cures anxiety disorders. Read the Ashton manual. These drugs were introduced to the market under a cloud of falsehoods.

It's the perfect drug for someone facing the anxiety of having their reputation constantly assaulted the way Peterson's has been. It numbs all the right sensibilities.

There are still legitimate uses for many of them (even Klonopin/clonazepam). The problem is prescribing a daily maintenance dose, say for general anxiety (which gets people hooked), as opposed to either VERY short-term therapy or as needed (like to prevent/treat an imminent seizure or nix a current panic attack). The thing about that is that they've known about the problems with daily use for a looooooong time. Which means Peterson (psychologist) and his doctor both should have known not to do this.

Peterson (psychologist) and his doctor both should have known not to do this.

Absolutely, but the practice is so widespread that psychiatry in general would grind to a halt if it were to ever be addressed directly. It's like this corruption that's just fucking everywhere. The majority of people think this shit is harmless and its cultural footprint does nothing to dissuade that. That footprint was designed.

Man, having someone you love being diagnosed with terminal cancer is about the top 10 worst things that could happen to anyone.

Not that having your reputation challenged daily is any fun, but what I'm saying is that I don't really blame the guy.

It's hard to judge other people for being in such a situation I wouldn't even want to imagine for myself.

I'm not sure how else to say this, but Benzos can induce the sort of social fluidity we might otherwise associate with one or two drinks on a full stomach. The liberation from self-obsessed fear and a concordant bravado. It's very easy for someone on that sort of a stage to become reliant on that kind of lubrication. Benzos are big in showbiz.

 

[Jaded Optimist]

That drug is no joke, and he started taking them for a sad situation. Honestly, good on him for getting help this quick. Most people would deal with it by buying drugs for much longer before getting help.

ITT: There's some hardcore, unwashed penis defending going on.

Holodomor Question to Jordan Peterson in NYC 1/23/2018

Found on pewtube. Needs to be shared to a larger audience. https://pewtube.com/user/CustomerService/rdw36SM?autoplay=on

www.youtube.com

my position is that Jordan is a hypocrite. He spends his days talking about how the key to life is shouldering the greatest burden you can, then he uses drugs to get away from his troubles.

 

[Weppers]

Huh. I was on Klonopin for something like a year and a half and I don't remember any major crash in getting off of it. I also don't remember any major benefit from taking it either, so maybe I was just insensitive to it the whole time.

 

[kidatari]

seems like Peterson was going with some issues with his wife having cancer
I like Peterson and wish him the best
and his daughter is kinda hot
And the last Metokur stream on YT, Jim did a deepfake Peterson voice dubbed with a porn scene, it was pretty damn funny

As much as I dislike Peterson, there's only one solution for these big pharma poisoners.

You know I've smoked a lot of grass
O'Lord, I've popped a lot of pills
But I never touched nothin'
That my spirit could kill
You know, I've seen a lot of people walkin' 'round
With tombstones in their eyes
But the pusher don't care
Ah, if you live or if you die

God damn, the pusher
God damn, I say the pusher
I said God damn, God damn the pusher man...

Well, now if I were the president of this land
You know, I'd declare total war on the pusher man
I'd cut him if he stands, and I'd shoot him if he'd run...

 

[AbyssStarer]

How did this man, among many others in the country start this kind of pill?

Doctors will push any pill they can on people, the more expensive and hardcore the better, it means more appointments and more scripts filled. Doctors will lie and downplay the effects of drugs just to get people on them. I'm sure every American has somebody in their family who's been affected by this.

Shoulda cleaned up his takeout boxes and checks his foreskin. He's a fucking idiot though, so I'm not surprised in the slightest.

I hate to break this to you, but addiction and vice like this one are the unavoidable byproduct of the chemical glue holding together more people at every level of society than you might expect. SO MANY people are on shit, it keeps the machine running. Like how you maybe took a bunch of adderall to cope with exams. Or maybe someone else drinks to get thru the pain of swinging a hammer all day. That sort of shit happens, a lot.

If you start executing the people who push you end up with a Duterte situation. He himself takes opioids.

Also, here is Dr. Peterson reading Biggie lyrics, likely while barred the fuck out on strawberry flavored sublingual k-pins.

Benzos is the shit that a lot of boomers get hooked on. Doctors prescribe it without a second thought when someone is going through a mild depression. Before you count to three you are addicted and need to check your ass into a hospital to have a chance to de-tox. You will see the sweetest of old ladies be hooked on that shit hardcore. Benzos have their place for short term prescription in low doses, but stupid doctors will get you addicted unfortunately.

Still, it's very weird how Peterson did not act more responsible, but if he was seriously depressed, that's a good explanation of not giving a fuck about consequences.

Oh, I most certainly agree with all this.

Correcting this requires major societal change. Exactly the sort of major societal change that Peterson and his THOT daughter oppose as shills of the soulless neoliberal world order.

It is important to wash your penis. But man cannot live by penis-washing and room-cleaning alone.
