We can go back if you like.
Heck, maybe we should go back.
They were as full of themselves when they were cutting half of patients brain out to cure hysteria as they are now
Damn, it was a good ass job back then 😂
Women used to get dildoed down at the psychologist
At least the old methods worked faster
I’ll take the 400 volts
“Oh, you’re too active/annoying? Let me drive a nail under your eye…”
On my way to be a psychologist. Maybe I should from the past examples. Wish me luck.
Psychologists in the past
And shock therapy has been found to have positive effects on patients experience treatment resistive depression.
I work in mental health.
We’re totally doing the por que no los dos? route.
Actually, electro shock therapy is VERY much still used today with psychotic patients when all other methods have been exhausted. It works and doctors still don’t understand why, but it works (if only temporarily).
They couldn’t find an existing pic of Jamie foxx smiling at the camera? Just had to slop him up (pause) huh? Smdh
damnn 😭
Explaining to my adult children that seeing a therapist used to be a massive taboo was interesting.
It came up after seeing people in an old thriller movie gossiping about a neighbor,
*”You know I heard she was seeing…a therapist!”*
*GASP*
Incredible to think that for ages you were supposed to just swallow all your negative feelings and white knuckle it through life….
And seeing a professional to talk about your problems was considered a bad thing. A moral failing.
Fucking yikes.
No wonder so many previous generations lived at the bottom of a bottle.
They still hit you with the volts. I was on a ward, where a guy got rolled out ever week to get it. He didn’t talk and could bearly walk or function. It sure as hell wasn’t doing anything to him, to “bring him back to life” indeed i thought there was signs he was asking for help, or just braindead, and nobody wanted to really stop.
It’s more like this.
*Psychiatrists’ today:*
*What kind of drugs would you like to try to make you normal?*
Like good old Palpatine
My favorite old timey mental treatment is pumping boiling water up the anus.
“of the past”
Yeah I wish we were past the point of having people close to us involuntarily institutionalised and electrocuted until they have serious memory problems.
Ah memories… or so to speak 😏
Don’t Do It!! 😖
They still use electro shock therapy today because it works.
