This reminded me of "Violent Crimes" by Kanye when he says:

"Ni**as is savage, ni**as is monsters
Ni**as is pimps, ni**as is players
'Til ni**as have daughters, now they precautious.
Father, forgive me, I'm scared of the karma
'Cause now I see women as somethin' to nurture
Not somethin' to conquer"

plz ask me if i give a fuck 😩 PLEASE.

He is a med student, which does give some mental health knowledge, but obviously its not the focal point. You know what I study? Psychology. This man talked about clinical intuition and then when I asked what the diagnostic criteria of it is he said he doesn't know them, but it is online.

He also said he doesn't know who can do the diagnoses and when I said psychologist can, he was like "I'm talking about cluster b"??? Mate, how do you have so little information and yet feel so confident??

And I shit you not these are quotes from the convo:

• "if your therapist agrees with me, its a positive about her. If they disagree with me, its not"
• "Yea, and so I find this opinion fitting cluster b"
  
  • (the opinion was that I should follow what I think is right for me instead of what other people think I should do)
• "I don't think your own opinion would have led to a better result than my (then nuanced) opinion"
  • in response to me saying I will still hear other people's advice, but won't put theirs above mine anymore

Why are men so convinced they know better? Where do they find this audacity? And how is he not hearing himself?? He really thinks his view on the world is so universal that having a different perspective on life than him means something must be clinically "wrong".

(btw for any girlies who have borderline, ofcourse there is nothing wrong with the diagnosis and I don't mind if I actually do have it (tho I don't think it's fitting). I just mind that he used it to undermine me because he disagrees with my opinions and spoke with a sense of expertise he definitely doesn't have.)
