He replied to that personally, let me try to repeat his argument (I cant find a link). He argued that giving advice to other people is completly accepted if the advice doesn't come from a mental health professional. (You'll find plenty youtube videos on how to "overcome procrastination") However having the better understanding of the mind that a professional has can't lead to worse advice, so he too should be accepted giving it.
Whether there is an inherent danger of talking to an psychiatrist in this interview format for the interviewee I don't know, but given the amount of disclaimers he's putting out there it seems save to me.
- alisonkisk 5y agoThere's nothing wrong with a professional giving advice. The danger is in a professional giving advice and not accepting the liability for malpractice harms that comes with their professional license.
- benatkin 5y ago> having the better understanding of the mind that a professional has can't lead to worse advice, so he too should be accepted giving it That seems simplistic. If people know he's a Dr, and they do, they might treat the advice differently.
- MattRix 5y agoHe mentions that early in his discussion with Sasha Grey at around 9:45. He also later talks about how therapy is different than what he does on Twitch anyway (at 13:00) https://youtube.com/watch?t=777&v=DMw8G3RPWrQ&feature=youtu.be https://youtube.com/watch?t=777&v=DMw8G3RPWrQ&feature=youtu....
