> was briefly addicted to anti-depressants This is incredibly wrong and convenient. He was addicted to benzos—not anti-depressants. Benzos are anti-anxiety drugs but it is more helpful to think about them as"alcohol in a pill". Peterson is, in a sense, not distinct from an alcoholic. I'm not one to shit on drug addicts, hell, pot-kettle. But Peterson rubs me the wrong way because of his audacity in acting as if he is above the "usual" drug addict and that he can cheaply sell you the keys in the form of clichéd advice and can sell you better shit if you privately pay him to consult with him when he has to go all the way to fucking Russia to recieve "adequate treatment". I just can't even with this guy. Like, Im not gonna say he has zero helpful ideas but they are tainted with the nonsense that helps nobody but himself. Edit: i would like to find out the length of the supposef addiction as well. I just hate when people lie about this shit or polish it up when such stories should be unvarnished and relatively congruent with that which is known objectively or publiy particularly in such a public facing individual. Edit: he also has the perfect justification so its interesting if his accounts depart from a more objective one in a way that is palpable

When Peterson needed the kind of therapy or care you fancy yourself receiving in him, he had to go to Russia. Please, take your time and take that in. Why didn't he just call his own hotline? Lol

You realize Peterson was famous well before that 18 month drug addiction, correct?

  Where did I say otherwise and where did I say it was relevant at all? What are you contesting here, bud? Edit: imma help you out here. If you wanna call out something I actually said, use the > and write it Your comment makes no sense, I never spoke to that which you raise unpredictably and unanswerably so (if thats even a real word)?
