Exactly what I thought of when I read Tichy's comment. The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind might be total BS, but I can't say it wasn't a fun read.
- mahmud 17y agoWell, it might have been a "fun read" but this is someone's life and mental health we're talking about.
- eru 17y agoYes. Perhaps "interesting and thought-provoking book" might have been more apt than "fun read".
- Tichy 17y ago??? Sorry I can't follow anymore. So thinking about possibilities is inappropriate? Doctors are never allowed to enjoy their job? (I am not a doctor, but it would be a similar situation)
- gojomo 17y agoIt might be a helpful and fun read for someone dealing with hearing voices, too. The diversity of comments here (as well as the referenced Wikipedia articles) indicate the situation could require a more complex and long-term strategy than simply "run to doctor; do what doctor says." (Even though talking with experts is almost certainly part of the right course.) In that case, discussing "fun reads" with relevant perspectives is part of coping.
