Okay no BS, WTF is going on with this guy? Did benzos actually fry his brain? How dangerous is that stuff?
Is that guy still relevant? I don't keep up with retarded zoomer idols, but thought he was more of an early guy.
>>533478503Yeah, they can fry your brain. Look it up.t. Recovering benzo addict
>>533478503benzos are terrible for you, yes it really did fuck his brain up.
>>533478503Yeah his daughter just said he has brain damage from "medications" aka benzos
His daughter getting railed by a literal Chad destroyed his brain.
>>533478503His Daughter threw him into a Russian torture gulag hospital treatment center to "get him off of benzos" which has inadvertently caused major health problems after a long period of withdrawal. She is trying to bag all of the millions he made for herself.
>>533478503He got actual brain damage when he was put into a medically-induced coma to go cold turkey off of benzos. You're supposed to be slowly weened off benzos and putting can fuck them up. He had to learn how to walk and talk again afterwards.
>>533479026actually i think its probably more that "he knew better" situation, he's brilliant, he's a professor so it was probably hard to convince him of anything before it became too late, especially when something like benzos are involved which can be pretty addictive and cause tons of problems for your health but you "know the science" and of course you've taken the precautions and the horror stories wouldn't happen to him, i think it was all an accident actually and the problems just cascaded into what it is now due to age, pre-existings, overall health etc etc.
>>533478503I had him as a psych prof at UofToronto, intro class with 600 students where he lectured and TAs did all the work. He was a good, charismatic, teacher, but one of those tenured profs that was also 100% ego, though he was hot shit, the smartest guy in the faculty. Constantly trying to scam the hot undergrad girls, honestly surprise he wasn’t meetoo’d. Any case, social media basically was like crack for this personality type / psych profile. (And he even admits it a bit). He was getting old and it was complete ego gratification for him, with the not unattractive bonus of a big revenue stream to grift from simps. He just got off on it and it became an endless onanistic, masturbatory, treadmill; high on his own supply, and farts, and then recreational drugs. The saddest thing is that he is highly intelligent and educated on all this, and I have no doubt he completely understood the psychological train wreck he was riding but still did nothing to stop. Maybe it was the internal thrill, maybe the fame and external benefit, maybe he just didn’t care or rationalized it.In any case: it’s just sad now. He’s basically ruined as an academic, public figure, “role model,” and it seems personally. Desperate to regain some aura. But he’s not really all there anymore, not as sharp or persuasive or insightful as he was when he was lecturing and would snap off brilliant bits when some smartass student asked a question.
>>533478503They say he completely lost his marbles when he heard the news that his daughter had been defiled by that perfidious troll demon snake of the garden Andrew Tate
>>533478503He was always going to go down for opposing globohomo. Pretty sad that his daughter became his handler.
>>533479347>I had him as a psych prof at UofTorontoI'm envious. I would have liked to see him at his best.
>>533478503It's a worse withdrawal than heroin from what I've heard and can kill you
>>533479347Honestly the lectures he put online from 2016-2017 are incredible. Sometimes I go back and re-watch them. I think he deserved to call himself a hot shot professor back in those days. His downfall was his health problem compounding his obsession with trying to solve the problem of religion dying out of favor from western culture. Led him down a rabbit hole of Christian faith rather than science which is what made him the hot shot professor he was.
>>533479026benzo addiction is rare, and is pushed by bug pharma because they want you taking ssristhe ssris are what give you akathisia that his daughter mentioned, you can look this up yourself. they also give you bipolar 2 from the changes they make in your brain. almost nobody who is prescribed them legitimately gets addicted. you have to take lots of them for a long time. aka abusing them. the people that abuse them are hard drug users that are trying to control a comedown. they are called a secondary drug. this is the main way people get addicted. https://karger.com/pps/article/91/5/300/826574/Benzodiazepines-Are-Efficacious-and-Safe-for-Longthis article goes into the safety, as well as the marketing campaign against them in favour of ssris.there should most likely be a few shills along pretty soon to make shitass non arguments, let's see.so the real reason he went to russia and got sepsis is from experimental stem cell treatments. dr mark hyman was seeing the same doctor, and got sepsis from it as well.https://youtu.be/bpF8t-lQBj8
>>533479347being really smart makes you an easy victim of drug abuse, a lot of smart people know better and of course its not going to happen to me im to smart for that, and that exact line of thinking is what makes them so susceptible to something as pernicious as drugs it doesn't surprise me at all actually.
>>533479540He wasn’t political or anything; wasn’t lecturing guys to wash their balls. He stuck to the academic subject but was able to bring it alive and interesting. I have no doubt he convinced thousands of students to take up as a major .>>533479238This anon kind of touches on a point. I could see him basically rationalizing “I’m brilliant, I understand all of this … so I can handle it unlike normal stupid losers.” At one point he was resorting to insulting anyone who disagreed, even rationally, with him. No one was going to tell him he was wrong, about anything. That’s what happens in academia. The bitterness is never higher when the stakes are so low. He kept upping the stakes and added drugs to the mix.
>>533479754>Led him down a rabbit hole of Christian faithHe was very much a Jungian. It's not a rabbit hole, it's the human experience, repeated endlessly. Hero's Journey, boyo. >rather than scienceKek. He stopped being a materialist, it happens. >trying to solve the problem of religion dying out of favor from western cultureHe knew the problem. Himself, and everyone like him, in acidemia. The Pronoun Incident woke him up to the world he helped create. He choked on the Black Pill.Now, go clean your room.
>>533479754everything he said was regurgitated masonry and rosicrucianism. every last thing, none of this originates with him. https://youtu.be/W_o9DOwY5LE?list=PLa9Nsm7Vx02dA2ynEPPEOoLghNnGDCLrthe had future authoring, masons have their degrees, which are little morality plays, allegories about how to behave. essentially the same thing as the secret or law of attraction.in other words, lie to yourself and everyone you meet until you are psychologically healthynote that none of this worked for him or his daughter, they changed their diet and showed unequivocally that their problems were based in biology, not spending all day censoring your thoughts and being le positive. yet still, he will sell this program to you for an exorbitant price, even though he knows personally, without a doubt, that it's useless.https://youtu.be/nVyUe5BhWQche pretty much lets the cat out of the bag here, showing how the eye of horus is about focused attention, the essence of magick. concentrating on what you want and having it come true.
>>533478503Classic example of benzo withdrawal and permanent brain damage. Example:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jZvYdFrj44Y
>>533478503Yeah he's fucked. That's what happens when you trust your government provided doctor with "safe and effective" treatments for your problems.
>>533478656was once prescribed 10 days of benzos to take before bed as a sleep aid for drug withdrawal. It was fucked. Could barely walk. It reduced my anxiety and allowed me to sleep 8hrs so it was good, but I couldn't imagine taking it daily.
>>533480148I was never really interested in his Jungian/mythological ideas; only appreciate him raising awareness that they're fable lessons we can learn from children stories and mythology. He was a genuinely interesting social scientist who understood IQ, 5 big personality, etc. That stuff isn't even relevant to his new persona and it's why I don't really care for his new persona.
>>533480526from what i gather, he got this from stopping them cold turkey instead of tapering off>Jordan Peterson withdrew from public life in late 2019 due to a severe physical dependence on benzodiazepines, a condition his daughter Mikhaila described as a year of "absolute hell" rather than addiction in the traditional sense. >His dependence began after a severe autoimmune reaction to food in late 2016, which caused extreme insomnia, and his dosage was increased in early 2019 following his wife's terminal cancer diagnosis, which exacerbated his anxiety. >Peterson's attempts to stop the medication abruptly led to horrific withdrawal symptoms including akathisia (a movement disorder causing irresistible restlessness), seizures, and an induced coma, prompting him to seek emergency treatment in Russia after North American doctors failed to provide adequate care. While media reports frequently labeled this an "addiction," experts and his family emphasized the distinction between physical dependence (a biological adaptation to prescribed medication) and addiction (compulsive use despite harmful consequences), noting that he took the drugs exactly as prescribed.
>>533480618thats the real problem with benzos people downplaying the side effects or even pretending they aren't real and caused by something else, not saying they shouldn't be used in medical settings, but the daily use thing has always been crazy to me, i used to take bars for fun when i was younger and i had some bad nights because of them so i know for a fact that it happens.
>>533479347He was taking the benzos cuz he didn't know how to process the fact that his wife was dying of cancer. His wife survived though and by the time that rolled around he was already deeply enslaved by the drug which he admits every few months he asked for a dose increase. He was probably popping a benzo every 4 to 5 hours daily. He probably had to wake up in hte middle of the night to take more. He claimed he consulted the best psychiatrists in North America/Europe and none of them agreed a cold turkey strategy was appropriate. That just wasn't acceptable to Petersen. He sought to escape the debt of pain he had been accumulating with his drug use via the induced coma method, but it ended up nearly killing him.
>>533478503he's a blasphemer and the demons he's been summoning are tormenting him. Schizophrenia is the usual tell for demonic influence or possession. His refusal to name the Jew is the obvious other tell that something is fucked with him.
>>533481205>His refusal to name the Jew is the obvious other tell
>>533480936His daughter claims he stopped taking them by 2020. His wife had cancer before that? I forgot she did because she recovered so quickly. Your theory about his abuse seems very plausible. >>533481205Peterson spent his early life researching Nazism and was fully convinced what they were doing, according to the research/books he was reading, was among the most evil things ever. Consequently he developed a strong affinity and care for Jews as victims of the Holocaust. I think there is more reason to his love of Jews and Judaism, but it at least starts with that.
You'd think one of the world's premier psychologists could get off benzos without going to Russia to be put in a coma. But I have heard through the grapevine he has a better understanding of how to help people get off drugs now. Maybe it's something all psychologists should do before charging you thousands to regurgitate what strategies they see in print.
>>533478503It’s apple cider vinegar
>>533479347He jumped the shark after contracting with Zionist Daily Wire. (yes perhaps the ego thing had gotten to him a year or two prior)Also the mid-2010s free speech on campus, early-cancel-culture 2016-17 controversies were in the rear view mirror after covid. He'd become a relic in his own time, and what was the next fresh rung he grabbed for? Pimp for Zionism. Bad decisions
>>533478503Yep benzoyl gave him sepsis and fungal infection
>>533478819Damn she got bogged. She also fucked that nigger Andrew Tate.
>>533485003Literally this
>>533478503Buy an add
its vax injury and like all vaggots he gets what he fucking deserves.
this guy gets far more attention than he deserves. proof that zoomies are a lost retarded group of nut cases seeking instant charlatan fixes
>>533478503He sold his soul and realizes, the closer he gets to death, that it was a bad deal. Many boomers go through this.
