Hardest part of writing is accepting that some people will not fucking get it & you just have to like cope with that because over-explaining it just makes it worse
I will not over-explain my art to the stupidest people on earth. I'm writing for people who know what I'm talking about. Mantra that will save you. David Lynch was right

it's important to talk about how pop psychology sucks ass. but that shouldn't distract you from also talking about how Serious, Official, Legitimate Psychology also sucks ass.
major issues with psychology/psychiatry as it currently exists:
- an insistence on viewing different mental types through the lens of "illnesses" that need to be "treated"- it's obvious that different people have minds that work in different ways, but instead of trying to understand the different advantages and disadvantages of different mental states, and trying to help each person reach their full potential with the mind they have, psychology/psychiatry imagines a hypothetical person who's way of thinking never hinders them in any way, and then treats everyone who doesn't fit this imagined model as Sick. because every single person will always have certain situations where their style of thinking hinders them, psychology increasingly pathologizes more and more mindsets and behaviors. in pop psychology this reaches the absurd endpoint of claiming "everyone is mentally ill to some degree", but ultimately this is just an overt stating of what's implied in Legitimate Psychology.
- an over-focus on neurology which ignores obvious social/memetic factors. you'll see someone who falls into right-wing conspiracy theory hysteria, with the flat earth and the reptilians and so forth, get diagnosed as "schizophrenic", and there's an assumption that it's something innate to their neurology that led them to these beliefs, but like, if you look at the mechanisms of what's occurring when someone adopts these sort of beliefs, the primary thing that's happening is they're getting indoctrinated into an ideology by a group. maybe there are certain neurological factors which led them to be more vulnerable to that, but if you're trying to "treat" them by treating beliefs they were indoctrinated into by other people as though they sprung forth fully formed from their "schizophrenic neurology" then you're missing at least 80% of the picture.
