Well, i finally got the cajones to read this article in which i was immediately defensive! Lol. Typical lima. I have more thoughts but for now im just curious about your research. Is everything you discuss freudian or from the neuroplasticity guru ( dont remember the name) ?

Hmmm...
I doubt it's very freudian, but I think I'm picking up on the idea of the freudian concept of the ego (which I actually demolish in the follow-up article)
the freudian ego is quite an astute observation because it's the root of all mental illness imo
My mom got trained as a psychoanalyst and so most of what I know from mental illness, ironically, comes from my family history, and everything she's ever taught me about!
on my dad's side there's a lot of 'personality disorder' and on my mom's side a lot of 'brain disorder' kind of stuff, so actually you'd need to ask her where she gets her sources from!
if there is a neuroplasticity guru, then my mom probably did tell me all about it from him/her! ^^
you can check her out @amazinggrace although she actually hasn't properly gotten into the whole thing yet, but she definitely plans to!
She'll have way more insight about all this than I do I think, she's read tons of books from all the major thinkers in the field of psychology and neuroscience
