I have 11 hours worth of documentation due by tomorrow morning to keep an important contract, and yet here I am looking at shitposts
- Comment on Anon plays a prank 3 weeks ago:
As someone who has experienced psychotic episodes in the past, this “prank” would really fuck me up in a really unfunny way.
We don’t know much about the gf, but we know that she supposedly had a panic attack over it, and that’s not funny.
I’d find it funny only if I was told within a couple minutes (before having a panic attack, contacting my psychiatrist, and making arrangements for a potential inpatient stay), and I would absolutely dump a partner who’d refuse to apologize for this.
You honestly wouldn’t apologize to your partner after your ‘prank’ gave them a panic attack?

ASPD is far too broad to be worth treating on it’s own. If someone struggles with impulse control and emotion dysregulation, sure, those symptoms are treatable, and treating them is likely to improve the person’s quality of life.
However, most people with ASPD meet criteria because they break the law, lie about it (duh), and don’t feel bad about it (why would they if they did it on purpose?). This should not be pathologized, and doesn’t need treatment.
I don’t even believe in free will, so I expect you’re right that we won’t come to an understanding on this lol 😅
You can’t change society without changing the people first.
This is neoliberal propaganda

I am a therapist and I meet diagnostic criteria for ASPD.
The diagnosis itself exists to pathologize the individual to remove blame from the system that fosters this behavior.
The DSM is a joke

The point is more why are we treating the symptom rather than the disease.
Hell yeah, great point
People who take advantage of others are manipulators and by definition that’s anti-social. Why is the system so broken that we can’t imprison scammers?
What the fuck, how is that your conclusion?
The “disease” is the lack of safety nets- a lack of education, resources, opportunities. “Anti-social” is a copout term to justify the status quo- to pathologize what are ultimately systemic failures manifested in the behavior of individuals. The disease is capitalism, and imprisoning people for “anti-social” behaviors is absolutely the wrong answer.

Lol no, there’s no saga- the story is over! I was just trying to say that there’s another joke in this post, which is that habanera is not a typo, and the passage/body of the post is based entirely off the lyrics of that song

Thanks, you’re very kind but, to be clear, the title is the set-up for the 2-part punchline/gag of a high-effort shitpost

It’s okay, I appreciate that. I’m pretty used to it at this point; she’s chronically late to everything
