It’s absolutely lazy, because it’s not psychosis.

Enthusiastically matching the energy of an anxiously attached partner is a rite of passage many would rather not have walked.

It’s a great question, and I think it’s not exclusive. Obsessive limerent obsession can be driven by reward circuits, and those _can_ be extinquished by more straight-forward thera…

Mere talk therapy is infamously useless for attachment trauma, which is relational and somatic

People with severely disordered attachment _will_ seek out humans, again and again, to fill those unfulfillable needs, and leave bodies and psyches in their wake. So I think there …

I agree, but not because I think that those users had stable attachment patterns and have been corrupted by an unscrupulous company, but because there is unacknowledged, often hidd…

Which is your own reaction, which is a result of your own wounds. Now imagine someone else coming to the same conclusion about you.

I’m not sure “AI psychosis” is even right for many of those users who formed attachments to their “companions”. Psychosis is a real risk for schizophrenia spectrum disorders, but a…

Where, pray, is the sexism? This seems to be an instance of “if you hear the dog whistle you’re the dog”

You’ve inadvertently listed many symptoms associated with anxiety and panic disorder.

If all you need is someone to talk with, there is no difference.

Not necessarily, agere is implied in colloquial usage.

You’d be surprised to learn how unrealistic it is to expect someone that has learned Latin from 3 years of grammar drills/translation exercises to read any intermediate text comfor…

It’s not so ridiculous once you realise that it’s entirely possible for a second language learner to surround himself in the target language and constantly consume level appropiate…

When exactly are native speakers of a language using grammar drilling methods? Is it part of kindergarten?

Are you thinking of antibiotics affecting the gut or about something else?

> For example, if all of your best friends agree on one thing, and you’re like, yeah, they just don’t get it: you’re in denial. That is dangerously close to woo, but is a good exam…

Consider that the secondary point is to separate society from perpetrator.

I’ve made the same personal observations. Ketogenic diets have also been used for a century to treat epilepsy in children, so effects might not be limited to the gut. Maybe it’s ke…

When writing those witty comparisons, do you ever stop and think about the millions of human beings that were murdered by actual fascism, or do you pretend that you actually give a…

It appears that way, but skirts around the gametic model of discerning biological sex that is the golden standard for other species, while elevating the status of chromosomal defec…

Intersex is about characteristics, not biological sex.

The term “birth defect” fell out of use because of its stigmatizing word construction. Chromosomal abnormalities would be the modern term, it applies to both sexual as well as othe…

As the article you’ve linked states this syndrome affects males, makes them resistant to androgens, so they have an appearance of females. It doesn’t state anywhere that the patien…

In sexually dimorphic mammalian species sex is most commonly by the ability to produce either the small or big gametes, not chromosomes. In humans syndromes that lead to ambiguous …
