How not to get yourself hospitalized, or Just because you like Kraft Dinner doesn't mean you are mentally ill. · 3:35am Sep 28th, 2018

As part of my job as a crisis worker, one of the things I need to be able to do is assist in the process of placing people who are mentally ill and in crisis on a hold. Now... a lot of people probably start thinking of getting '5150'd' - to borrow from California's statutory code related mental health hospitalizations - but it's... really more complicated than that. A lot more complicated. So much so that, after visiting Ebon Quill, I ended up having to drive the entire diagonal length

Hello everypony, long time no see. I know how e̳̝a̜͙̥̝͎̺g͎̞er̟̰ ̖͕̯ everyone is for some miraculous pony words or the like. Well good news and good news. I got a better job and finished my last day at a job so aw̛f̡ul ͤ͐̎ that if I never mention or think about it again, I will die an infinitely happier man.

Today I come with a game r̷e͏c͘o̴mm̨e͠nd̷ation͞ ̸ and I haven't even finished it yet, I just got to a point in the game best summarized by this iconic meme.

Pony Psychology: Diamond Tiara · 11:11am Oct 15th, 2015

An interesting discussion brewed up over on Bookplayer’s blog. Bookplayer is of the position that last weekend’s episode fundamentally changed Diamond Tiara’s character, while my position is that it is a natural continuation of it and that the character hasn’t changed beyond reacting to circumstance.

Bookplayer asked for specific things in canon that show this, so I’m going to an inquisition on Diamond Tiara as she appeared in season 1 episode 12: Call of the Cutie.

Pony Psychology: Fluttershy · 1:28am Nov 7th, 2015

She's timid beyond compare and the embodiment of kindness, so how does Fluttershy have such an intimidating presence to her when she wants it?

Let’s take a look, and let’s start right at the beginning.

[WARNING: 'Tis a long 'un!]

For Those Who Might Worry · 2:58am Aug 24th, 2020

Things are going much, much better for me - both situationally and psychologically. And once September rolls around, I will soon have time to write some more! Huzzah!

I honestly haven't officially started the next chapter, but my mind has been bursting with so much that it's going to fly onto the page once I have a decent chunk to commit to it.

Thank you for all who have stuck with this do far! Nearly 6,000 views! I am blown away!

The Story of My Inferiority Complex · 4:29am Mar 19th, 2016

I couldn't sleep. I needed to get this off my mind.

Earlier today, I went to a Twitch stream featuring some of the major members of the group The Good Hie List. Writers like Flammenwerfer, Anonpencil, and numerous others were on a Skype call just answering random questions and talking about whatever topic happened to come to mind.

What it really means... · 7:50pm Dec 29th, 2021

I've been thinking a lot about what I wrote here over the course of about 17 days. I've been re-reading segments of it and trying to make sense of it, because the truth is, I just knew I had something to say. But I did not know exactly what that was... But the more I analyze it, the more I'm starting to realize that at its core, this is a story about letting go. Here, I'm consciously making a decision to leave my past behind... Like Twinkle Shine said, I don't need to remember. Simply

I think I know the real reason? · 11:41am Jun 15th, 2023

I've been doing a lot of thinking about this... I was married for six years and I've had many relationships with people of both genders before and afterward... However, for some reason, I can no longer remember anything good about my past relationships? I don't believe it's really my fault, but for whatever reason, I feel like something was taken from me? Something precious? Now, I'm not a psychologist and I won't claim to know the real reason why this has happened... But it also occurs to me

Team Hate · 2:53pm Monday

[I'm retitling this "Team Hate", because I think the kind of hate I describe here is a special kind of hate, which might be neurologically quite different from hate between one person and another.]

In Twinkle Shine's mind · 11:43pm Dec 19th, 2021

Many of the transgender allegories used here are fairly obvious. For instance, Twinkle Shine is the name she chose for herself, and therefore, her name is Twinkle Shine now, and not Cozy Glow... Her ghosts are a past reflection of herself, much like my own ghosts are just past reflections of me. They haunt her dreams, and while she cannot get away, she can learn to deal with these nightmares and possibly even make friends with them.

Holocaust jokes are never acceptable · 4:20pm Oct 5th, 2015

When it comes to offensive humour, when have you crossed a line that nobody should ever cross?
Here is Doug's stance on the issue.

PRO:TIP The rest of the blog will make more sense if you watch the video.

I generally agree with most of his points and I do want to particularly emphasise the Too Soon concept which some people seem to have problems getting.

I am not very good with words.

... Perhaps I should amend that a bit. I am very good with typing words. I am not very good with speaking them. Especially when they are words that I need to say to express myself about how I am thinking. How I am feeling. How I... am.

Horney's Three Neurotic Stances and MLP: A comparison. · 5:19pm Apr 19th, 2017

Today's psychology class was pretty interesting. That's a strange thing for me to say, given how I'm usually bored senseless in that class, but today's lecture on personality honestly hooked me in. Of all the things we went through, however, one stuck with me: The bit where they discussed Karen Horney, specifically on what she said about the Neurotic Stance. To simplify it to just the bare essentials for the sake of time, she stated that a neurosis was a counterproductive way of dealing with

I promised some kind of summary post for my Points of Canon series, and since Season 8 is rapidly approaching, I guess I’m running out of time to say whatever it is that I have to say. I will, of course, continue the series, and it’s kind of silly to write any kind of conclusion when it’s so obviously incomplete, that I’m in a middle of a season.

Especially the unkind words.

New Character · 1:16pm Feb 21st, 2017

Cerberus Junior - What happens if Chrysalis gets it in her head that having demon in her Hive's gene pool would be nice. A good representation of Freud's tripartite model of the psyche. Three heads, one pair of chitinous wings, canine frame, hooves on hind legs, paws on front legs, changeling texture & surface.

Right head - Id. Impulsive, uncaring of social norms, always getting him into trouble.
Aura: Pink.
Magical Specialization: Offensive spells and conjuring.
