You know that there's medication that changes brain chemistry right?

Psychology recognizes that thought and behaviour are material and uses them as tools to adapt brain chemistry from within. Similarly to medicine, the subject doesn't need to understand the physical minutia of what's occurring in their body for that change to occur.

Dismissing the usefulness of internal mental processes that we experience and usually call consciousness in favour of the tangible physical structure of the brain is a form of mind-body separation. By rooting the mind exclusively to the tangible physical structure of the brain, you declare the supremacy of the brain and segregate the mind into nonexistence. Consciousness, the mind, are processes of the brain and until we can grasp a function occurring over time in our hands that will never be tangible. Thought and mental health treatment remains physical and can be represented by how that tangible material changes, but a physical structure's existence doesn't render its processes irrelevant.

Research hasn't gotten to the point where the structures and processes are understood well enough to identify "wrong" brain structures on sight and we're even further away from being able to functionally restructure brain chemistry without the trial and error that defines modern psychology. That doesn't mean that it's ignored. Restructure that narrative out of your brain.

You can have a brain without a mind but you can't have a mind without a brain. I'm honestly surprised you have such a hard time understanding something so simple.
This is the best explanation I've ever heard. Gets right to the heart of the argument (no pun intended).

The attack on the Capitol would have been even better if some of those Black Hebrew bros participated.

They’re just trolls though. They’re all bark and no bite. But damn can they bark.

I don’t disagree with him. Also, I don’t think he’s writing it to join the debate; I think he wrote it out of concern that I’m going to give up on or not have due respect for my psychological and psychiatric care. I don’t think he cares if I take the L or not. I think he wants me to take my medicine.
