A look at psychoanalytic literature is always enlightening and also engrossing, and I would have studied this full time or would do (it is another way I would betray my current, and apparently very jealous profession). I see that the “false self” that U.S. psychotherapy associates with success, is not what the notion of “false … More Des faits nouvelles
It had a quotation about advising people on graduate school that I thought was smart but that bothered me in the end. I killed it by mistake but perhaps that was a good thing. I am going to stop railing about academic advice because in the end it is a personal issue, I am talking … More In which I find I have inadvertently killed a post
And this is the other thing I do not understand about academia, our duty to be in academia, and so on. All I ever heard about were the things you may not do if you are a professor. You may not: * desire to live somewhere pleasant, that you have any part in choosing * … More You may not

The blues aren’t pessimistic. We’re prisoners of hope but we tell the truth and the truth is dark. That’s different. And this is a different attitude from the baroque desengaño but I would like to re-study some baroque literature now. Axé.
I have not read this book, but should have done, and it is here. Axé.
Before I went into Reeducation, others were doing it and it seemed a bad thing. They would gleefully tick off the things wrong with them from the list they had been given, saying look, I am dysfunctional here, and here, and here … and I would think: “I cannot afford to undertake that kind of … More Types of pain people are in, or, why you should prefer health
