We undoubtedly find ourselves living in a very difficult historical moment in general, in which we seem unable to emerge from this whirlwind of shouting, threats, insults, wars, brawls, blackmail, scandals, and stupidity, and there is certainly little to be happy about.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Then there are minor events, in everyone’s personal life, capable of surprising, leaving those who do not want to give in to the idea that there is never an end to the worst, events that one hopes perhaps one will never have to witness again, like the national team out of the World Cup three times in a row, Francesco Totti’s farewell to football, pardon to Nicole Minetti or Calderoli, minister.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I was hoping de died first?<\/em> (cit.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n No come on, in the end hope always comes..<\/p>\n\n\n\n Ultimately, human history is marked by disappointments and upheavals, but also by sensational discoveries that, while capable of generating dismay, leave room for new and unexplored horizons, provided one reckons with one’s limitations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As knowledge increases, in fact, human beings can become smaller or larger, and the good news is that in a certain sense how we manage to deal with it depends above all on us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In particular, the three great \u2018narcissistic wounds\u2019 of the human race, inflicted respectively by Copernicus (the earth is not the center of the universe, but revolves around the sun), Darwin (the human being is not a divine creature, but descends from animals) and Freud (the ego is not \u2018master in one’s own home\u2019 because consciousness is dominated by the unconscious) have produced epochal consequences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Of course, Freud was referring to an unconscious as \u2018unknowable\u2019 and naturally perverse (because he considered newborns and therefore human beings in the same way) so that one could even make three slaps like this suffice, if it were not for the fact that if the first two have indeed scaled back the omnipotence of the thought of their respective eras, the third should impose very profound reflections even today, especially given the current psychiatric culture we find ourselves \u2018forced\u2019 to inhabit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n While the discovery of the boundless spaces of the universe was capable of revolutionizing knowledge, leaving everyone dismayed, research on the unconscious was initially used first to frighten and then to control people, until they landed in America, where they fell prey to the best Protestant tradition in the USA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Until the middle of the \u2018900 in fact the dominant paradigm was the behavioral one (later joined by the cognitive one) and even if it seems incredible that it was sent into crisis by a discovery that at first glance was not at all sensational, demonstrating the precariousness of its foundations: in fact there is something called motivation<\/em>, that is, the ability of humans to act and react differently from the animals on which the studies were carried out, whose behaviors are based on instinctual drives stimulus\/response model.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Open up to the sky.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Is there motivation?<\/p>\n\n\n\n Unconscious <\/em>at that?<\/p>\n\n\n\n But this is the new world to colonize, other than Mars, let’s appropriate this research and immediately create subliminal images capable of making you crave Coca-Cola while watching a movie in the cinema, and in short, let’s try to hypnotize people while awake!<\/p>\n\n\n\n They will consume things they may not need, but most of all they will believe that they are choosing to do so!<\/p>\n\n\n\n And today, when the cognitive-behavioral paradigm seems forced to confront its own obvious limitations, given that mental illnesses are steadily increasing worldwide, and that organic psychiatry has taken its slap with the definitive collapse of the serotonergic hypothesis of depression, what was thought best to do?<\/p>\n\n\n\n To dust off the use of psychedelics to explore otherwise inaccessible places of consciousness, and thus be able to treat drug-resistant forms of depression!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Today, in 2026, where even Trump lets slip that if a guy walks into a hotel armed to kill random politicians maybe he’s not a conspirator but rather he’s \u2018\u2026sick, very sick!\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n And there was no thought of doing it, as I know in Boston or Chicago, or even in Gotham City, but here in Italy, precisely at the same University of Chieti where until 2012 and for a good ten years lectures on Dynamic Psychology in light of Birth Theory were held.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The dying snake’s tail blow?<\/p>\n\n\n\n Let’s hope so, because I really don’t know if I would survive a possible Nobel Prize in Medicine award.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In the meantime, research on human complexity will continue, such as that on unconscious thought, knowable and curable through the interpretation of dreams if one falls ill, one of those particular forms of inheritance that notaries do not know, because humanity in the broadest sense is capable of this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Doing things together, maybe not at all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Marco Randisi<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" We undoubtedly find ourselves living in a very difficult historical moment in general, in which we seem unable to emerge from this whirlwind of shouting, threats, insults, wars, brawls, blackmail, scandals, and stupidity, and there is certainly little to be happy about.
