      Hey, that point at about 25mins where you were saying that the brain will attempt to fabricate a reason for an unknown reason to a conclusion.
      I don't recall ever experiencing that, if you ask me why I got the cookies I would say, "I saw the cookies and wanted them. I didn't come here for the cookies, but like, why not?"
      I may be misunderstanding the whole thing, but I feel like that isn't the conclusion phenomenon.

I have talked to several psychs through out the years and its always the young male ones that love to do this with certain types of clients (me and apparently michael reeves) and its soooo obvious they are doing it to try and connect with you. like they wouldn't have said it in a normal casual conversation outside of work but because I swear a lot they feel like they need to as well. I have no doubt this must be taught in every psych program ever. I don't dislike them for doing it, I've just only ever talked to one shrink who did it convincingly.

      @chaeyeongLFG 4 роки тому +89

      In my experience, this is a lot like a normal therapy session. Not every session is a weepy revelation. The therapist is there to guide the patient through their thoughts and make sense of them. That’s largely what happened here. Also your first session isn’t going to be a big breakthrough. It takes time. On top of that, in a regular therapy session, everything you say is confidential (unless you talk about a situation where a child or elderly person could be harmed, stuff like that). That’s a big part of being able to “open up.” If other people want to do that on this show, that’s fine, but Michael is clearly learning stuff that could benefit him in his daily life. That’s what therapy is for. It’s very clear they’re working through messy emotions and making sense of them. This is my first time watching this channel and I really enjoyed it, as someone who is actually in therapy (and struggles with their own existential dread).

    Michael comes across as a really smart fellow. I mean the way he asks questions and leans into what's going on. "Do you go inside a lot to deal with the dissonance?"; "Do you see multiple paths?"; "You're gonna lead me somewhere?". I don't know how else to explain this but I really like it.

      This is the importance of mathematics! Michael is very good at spotting derivative functions. Except he's doing it within the confounds of discrete math. Basically, it's the cornerstone of provable logic. Think about it like this, Michael is very good at spotting the equation that produces the words Dr. K said to him. Michael is very good at spotting algorithms. That's why he's very good at computer science. When he creates code, he can't just speak what he wants the computer to do. he has to think about what he wants, break down the result in a definable metric, then communicate a function to a computer that will produce the exact results he wants.

    • @skulltrick
      @skulltrick 3 роки тому +89

      It's called mindfulness. Some acquire it later than others, while some are forced to acquire it earlier due to the nature of their upbringing. Some acquire it through drug usage, while some acquire it through meditation. Some acquire it through intense struggle and perseverance, while some acquire it through unfortunate circumstances that they find themselves trapped in. Some may acquire it with a combination of all the things I listed while some may acquire it with none of the things I listed. And then some may live their entire life on autopilot and never acquire it.
      The point is that, everyone's experience is different, which entails that everyone's path is different. This awakening of mindfulness is understanding how your actions and intentions (and others') affect yourself and others on an objective and fundamental level. Some call this "being woke", some call this "being enlightened", some call this "being objective", some call this "being aware", and some may even call this "being intelligent". The beautiful thing is you can digest this truth however you want to digest it. Whether that be spiritually, religiously, scientifically, etc. It doesn't actually matter, the result is the same.
      A mindful person may have already come to the conclusion that "being enlightened" isn't actually as good as it sounds. He might say, "Now I think I know how to understand everything, but at what cost? This newfound "enlightenment" just causes me to suffer." Yes imaginary man, you are half right, but you are also half wrong. It is a double-edged sword. You are essentially eating the apple from the Tree of Knowledge by discovering this awareness. One might think, "before this realization I didn't have to fix anything about myself, I didn't have to ponder whether or not I am surrounded by good or bad people, I didn't have to have hold myself accountable outside of social or political judgment. Life was easier." And while these thoughts may be true, they are only one side of the coin. The other side is, "before this realization, was I truly alive? Was I actually in control? Was I my most authentic self? Did I have autonomy? Was I living my own life, for myself?"
      Regardless of the path you were pushed to take or the journey you are currently on, you are here now. Sure, life is a lot harder now with this newfound wisdom, but you are the driver now. So you gotta learn to roll with the punches baby.

    It's fascinating how Michael showed his anxiety by twitching the knob on his mic and then Dr. K told him that doing physical actions helps keep him in the present at the end. It was very insightful seeing how Michael subconsciously found a coping mechanism to bring him to the present and Dr. K provided insight into why this might be the best possible option for him to remain in that state.

      I don't know, i got the feeling all throughout that Michael was incredibly closed off, in a "i'm going to give you the bare minimum of information about me so that this doesn't get too awkward"- kinda way. Also, by his demeanor it felt like he didn't really have much faith in therapy in general, and that he wasn't taking this talk seriously. Maybe someone pressured him into this? Another impression i got watching, is that he was overly focused on what people viewing the interview might think about it and how cringy or not the things said might look to them, which generated some reactions on his part that i think could be seen as disrespectful : lots of deflecting, laughing at the "gifted kids are special needs kids" remark, or interrupting to ask questions ->which felt more like him trying to gain some control of the conversation as opposed to just being in the vulnerable position of asking for help. It felt like he was trying very hard to seem completely unbothered, as if this was just a casual chat. I'd guess there's more there than just anxiety and poor self-esteem, he also seems very uncomfortable with expressing his feelings. Maybe i'm reading all the wrong things into this, but i think he approached this with the wrong mindset. He could've gotten A LOT more out of this talk with Dr. K.

Outside of being around Lily, this is the first time he's been spotlighted with the expectation of being open about himself so he's probably bound to have felt uncomfortable.

When Michael said after High school he was at a crossroads between psychology and computer science my ears perked up. I said almost that exact sentence yesterday because I'm between going to school for psychology/counseling or continuing graphic design. I dunno just so weird! Definitely a moment I'll remember for a long time.

Also when people do think im stupid and express that, i take a much greater offense to it than i should, it affects my ego that i try so hard to be self aware about, and i may lash out at them in some unfair way to try to embarrass them, and redeem myself, because i felt so challenged. I'm an empath and i care a lot about how people feel so I really wish I didnt do that sometimes. just a great topic i hope dr k covers more in depth some day

      The reality is, 99.999% of all people are good at some things and garbage at others. History nuts feel retarded when they can't finish a definite integral equation quickly and Math nerds feel lost when doing APUSH exams. Feeling dumb when you're discussing a niche topic is something everyone has experienced whether they remember it or not. For me, the reaction to someone who expresses my inability to respond to a niche situation is partial indifference and also calm knowing there's nothing wrong with that. Either you hit them with facts, or hit them back by exposing their own vulnerabilities, in hopes of helping them understand that just because you're dumb at one thing doesn't make you dumb as a person. Either they understand the fallacy in what they just said or they have the mind of a 14 year old. You can feel good about the latter.
      With the ego reactions, you just have to live long enough to accept the reality that you're not gonna be good, or even "ok" at everything. At the same time, you're probably quite good/knowledgeable at other things, even if those skills can't be pinpointed at moment's thought.

I think thats also the reason why wehn im interested in something be it a game, sport or subject i dont take it to the next lvl because the things i was excited about when i was younger never reached the next lvl because i didnt connect with my ''weird'' thoughts with anyone.
    Before this I've been thinking of seeing a therapist to work all of this out, but watching this has made me realise it most likely isnt the simple things i boiled the reasons why i feel certain things down to.

    @madisonblack7201 10 місяців тому +1

    The think I observed consistently throughout this interview was the idea that we cannot feel love and compassion for things we cannot understand, as a society/humans. You both highlighted this discussion in the beginning, but during Michael's discussion of growing up @52:30 he specifies his family deeply cares for him, but they do not fundamentally understand him. And the most ironic part about human existence our brains default to assumptions to cope with all of the unknowns in the world (as discussed throughout the anxiety/existential dread segment)... so even the assumption that "we KNOW someone", is deceiving. The only person who truly knows someone is themselves (and arguably not even in that case). Quite profound... But also a bit sad, for thoughtful communication and perceptual sake, we disclaim these things :( When what Michael said is not inherently bad at all.

    Yesterday I was at a crossroad (with life) and decided to test it out. I did this conversation in my head, mostly to find out my deep rooted convictions and change them and after half an hour i was strained. My respect goes to Dr. K that does that on regular basis and Micheal that "lead" this conversation..it takes a lot of mental juice.
    Dr. K thanks so much for all you do. You care for the generation out here, work hard for people, to be helpful and spend your energies for others. One could think once you finally get to a point of overcoming your own batteles and shaping your mind you can rest, be proud and at ease and enjoy the view that comes with climbing the high mountain. But yours is a daily choice to keep stuggeling by taking upon (it's not really taking upon someone's problems but pouring your heart out into figuring out their problems & solutions) other people's struggles too. That's beautiful, man and I see it makes you happy. I wish you to be happy, you and your beautiful family.❤
    Btw i think it's hard not to get carried away while finding a solution to people's situation. It needs a lot of self control, bunch of feelings to understand and lots of care but logic not to get lost or sentimental in these intense emotions. Big respect for you, man.
