If you watch his TV interviews from ‘17 or whenever he’s clearly zonked out his mind on em. That’s what gave him the ‘unflappable’ aspect to his arguing that people thought was an impressive sign of his complete confidence in FACTS and LOGIC.. but anyone can not be perturbed in an argument when they’re on benzos, that’s the affect they give anyone he said he's had all kinds of mental problems since he was at least 13 and has been taking various meds throughout his life. the benzos however he only started taking in late 2019

There's no possible way a psychologist wouldn't know about that just from adjacency alone, since substance abuse IS something they learn about, and benzos are one of the most well known and obvious dependency inducing prescribed substances. Xanax is super well known in pop culture, and so is abuse of them. No way a psychologist wouldn't know that. Hes just lying so it doesn't seem like he willfully took them knowing he would become dependent on them, which makes him sound weak to himself and dumbfucks who think dependency and addiction is a moral problem.

Xanax is super well known in pop culture, and so is abuse of them. No way a psychologist wouldn't know that. Yep. There are two common abusive substances that can kill you from withdrawal and it's booze and benzos. They work on the same receptors apparently. When you are withdrawing from alcohol, they sometimes give you Ativan (a benzo) to taper down and make it not as miserable. If you are a psychologist with a PhD and don't know that... no, it's just not possible. He's gotta be lying.

His doctoral thesis was on “Potential Psychological Markers for the Predisposition to Alcoholism”. Of course benzos and booze work in the same way on the brain so his benzo problems are very ironic https://escholarship.mcgill.ca/concern/theses/7d278v86c Minotaurus Rex fucked around with this message at 02:50 on Mar 26, 2024 |

No, no - only weak-willed people from physical dependencies. I, an ubermensch who will lead the Western world to a new Christian renaissance, will not succumb to such failings. Jorp, probably.

Benzos aren’t just physically addictive, they’re also highly psychologically addictive.

He also, as was alluded to, doesn't understand addiction and sees it as a moral problem. He used to make these blog posts where he posted a sketchy amount of detail about his patients and he just openly despised them, them and their moral inferiority that leads to their addiction.

also in one of his post-coma interviews, the interviewer straight up pointed out that he got his doctorate in addiction mechanics, and he was about to admit that he probably should have known better, before his daughter cut in, spewed some nonsense about how he was never addicted but merely had a rare comorbidity that no one could have predicted, and ended the interview I'd actually feel bad for him if he weren't in a hell entirely of his own design..

obviously jorp is hosed more than the average boomer, but its something to note that boomers across the board tend to have weird magical views on addiction. At least in my experience Ive met older people with pill problems who specified they arent addicted cause they got it from a doctor. Maybe its not generational as much as a conservative thing though
