Akhenaton is Oedipus

m...@swipnet.se (M Winther) — Thu, 25 Sep 2008 14:07:37 UT

To me, it's clear that Oedipus is moulded out of Egyptian pharao
Akhenaton (Ikhnaton or Amenhotep IV, king of Egypt, 1350-1334 BC).
There are telling evidence. Akhenaton lived in a town called Thebes,
just like Oedipus. Akhenaton married his mother Tiy, with whom he had
one daughter (the pharaohs were notorius for incestuous alliances).

Two types of psychoanalysis?

m...@swipnet.se (M. Winther) — Sun, 24 Aug 2008 15:52:07 UT

"Two types of psychoanalysis?"
Abstract: The traditional aim of psychoanalysis is to resolve the complex.
But sometimes the factors are too deep to be eliminated, and the goal is
instead to find a way in which the complex can be lived in an upright and
productive way. Psychoanalysis becomes more oriented toward the public

Who psychoanalyzes psychoanalysts?

dank...@rocketmail.com — Sat, 02 Aug 2008 20:44:08 UT

Psychoanalysis consists of you paying hundreds of dollars to complain
about your personal problems and having Dr. Phil fart an opinion Dear
Abby could give for free. The opinion Dr. Phil farts is considered
scientific and medical because he has a Ph.fucking.D. in psychology,
but it seems to me that his opinion might be incorrect if he is crazy.

Hi how are you all?
I have been seeing a private psychiatrist for over 16 months now, and have
noted that the quality of his service is exemplary. He has me taking at the
moment 2mg of Invega every second day and has been taking care of me over

Anecdotal evidence

m...@swipnet.se (M Winther) — Mon, 28 Jul 2008 04:32:49 UT

A Scientific American article:
"How Anecdotal Evidence Can Undermine Scientific Results"
We have evolved brains that pay attention to anecdotes because false
positives (believing there is a connection between A and B when there
is not) are usually harmless, whereas false negatives (believing there
is no connection between A and B when there is) may take you out of

Anything opposing to the above is at least suspicious (don't you agree

Theory as a defence against the unconscious

m...@swipnet.se (Mats Winther) — Tue, 15 Jul 2008 09:45:55 UT

Theory is often used as a defence against the unconscious or the true
relation with the patient. By theorizing along his beaten track a
therapist can spin himself into a cocoon of theoretical silk-threads,
functioning as a protective mother's womb. To notoriously apply a
ready-made theory of dreams, for instance, is a sign of an underlying

It is not just the knowledge to give us the Faith. Anyway, it helps

that our Faith would be stronger and stronger.
In this site you can find a lot of events, which will make you think
it over.
These events and knowledges will give you peace and certainty, as

Autonomy, Looking for the Good Mother and Object Relations

magmasunbu...@gmail.com (brainstormsoftware) — Thu, 03 Jul 2008 12:18:44 UT

Anyone here like to comment on the ideas of autonomy and looking for
the "good mother"
everywhere one goes? It's fascinating when people haven't
internalized the completion of
the maturity it takes to form a good "self object"and they are looking
to others for a type
of nurturing role that the others should not be liable to give them.

Critique of free associations

m...@swipnet.se (Mats Winther) — Tue, 17 Jun 2008 18:55:33 UT

It's high time to abandon the method of free associations. Dream
interpretation, and interpretation of mythological material, is best
performed with the methods of amplification and contextualization.
Much have been said in dream interpretation, and mythic amplification,
that goes beyond Freud's ideas. The student can begin by studying
