Being a graduate from 3 years of studying psych and with an active experience of mental illness, I can say that no amount of studying theory and doing therapy+ taking meds for years helped me realize the root of my problems and my worth as a human. more than Marxist analysis. I live to be a part of the revolution, and as long as psychotherapy reinforces the client to believe in themselves and to accept the realities of it is what it is, it will never achieve its job of liberating the person. There is a need for psychology to gain a Marxist perspective, more so from modern day leftists in the mental health field.

    Wasn’t there a reddit community made around that time this happened? I’m probably misinformed though. May you please link me where i may learn about this? Thanks

      Not sure about reddit. I was talking about how there used to be an antipsychiatry community on this website. It had to be banned because the creator would post a lot of pseudoscience.
