His teachings are insanely obsolete. Freud is treated as a God-like figure in Argentina (Almost religion-like, seriously), almost the entire University of Psychology (Part of the University of Buenos Aires) is Freudian, if you get your title here good luck finding work abroad because it wont be accepted. It appears that the world of Psychology moved past Freud and his shitty medieval-like takes, if you want to be a psychologist and your field is psychoanalysis you will get rejected literally everywhere but here, which is sad. It's a scam, from my personal experience and the experience of close friends whoever falls into a psychologist who is a psychoanalyst is doomed, it wont cure depression, it wont make any good progress, the only thing it'll do is take your money away, deepen the problems and sessions would go on forever.
Sure, Freud is regarded as the father of psychology because he was the first who took a serious look into it, and back then, everything seemed to be right. But today? There are better techniques that don't lead to patients literally taking their own lives. It's dangerous shit.
Psychoanalysis can work for some people, it just takes forever and is hella expensive.
I took on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy sessions and it felt so damn good, they were quick, addressed the root causes of the problem (Especially good for dealing with anxiety problems, which I have.. plenty of) and wasn't expensive in the long run because you wouldn't be stuck with it for years. Unfortunately I had to discontinue treatment as the pandemic hit, but it felt like I was making a lot of progress and quite fast actually.
They're also just rephrasing the whole war on drugs/DARE rectoric from the 90s, but it's fine this time because it's against big pharma, neurodiverse and chronically ill people this time. Terrible take from them
Medication is vastly over-prescribed, and the industry is set up to benefit doctors and pharmaceutical industry at the explicit detriment of the patient.
Unironically repeating war on drugs/DARE rectoric but it's fine this time because it's against the "pharma masters"
The pharma industry existing to hook people on exploitative drugs is like... the opposite of DARE rhetoric (not "rectoric" lmao are you 8 years old....).
DARE punishes the drugs that people take to escape their condition whereas pharma pushes drugs to keep you placid in it.
Very disappointing to see oxy/benzo/SSRI pushers on this site! Your time defending this kind of drug policy would be better compensated at McKinsey or Boston Consulting Group.
I will take this opportunity to say fuck Freud and fuck Psychoanalysis, fucking pseudoscience do more harm than good.

being an ideal neoliberal subject to own the leftist
I also never said I don't believe in mental healthcare. Simply that modern psychology is not particularly more or less effective than psychoanalysis.
