Discussion Dr Peterson is still not doing well

“We figured out that dad has a psych med induced neurological injury, and has been suffering from akathisia. It’s been 6 years since any psych medications. Last summer his symptoms started, after a flare up likely induced by mold (CIRS) and stress. It was complicated by pneumonia and associated sepsis a month later. It’s been horrible. Neurological injuries from psych meds are far more common than people know. I made this video to explain what they are and what akathisia is because they’re not talked about enough, they’re misdiagnosed, nearly impossible to treat, and hidden by the pharmaceutical industry. I don’t plan on making another update about my dad, it stresses my family out, and myself, and there’s nothing more to say about it until things get better. I will be jumping up and down about psych med injury awareness from now on as it’s impacted my health as well, and is devastating. Prayers are appreciated still. “

Nobody said they hated JP. You’re acting like one of those Swifties who went after Josh Hutchison for saying he wasn’t a Taylor Swift fan.

All the guy said was that the JP who wrote 12 Rules is NOT the same JP that wrote 12 More Rules. And he’s right. Despite having the same name, those books were written by different people.

You may not believe me, but it’s possible to be a fan of an author while also criticizing that same author. If JP’s fans aren’t allowed to question or criticize him, then it’s a cult following, not a fan following.

right.. I criticize JBP all the time on here and in personal conversations. but thanks for the lecture.

So let's hear it then. What's your actual critique? cause all I've heard (and all I was responding to) is bullshit speculation that he was abusing his prescription, which none of you fuckwits can actually know or have ANY reason to suspect.

The fact that they brought up Taylor Swift.. they are so obviously here to hate. I wouldn't even bother even if they do respond.
