You are right to point out the "positive" side to these invisible drives, brewer. But Spongebob is also justified in saying that all humans are unaware of most of our drives.
(Apologies if I missed something earlier in the conversation. Just referring to what Spongebob said last.)
Then SB's effort was poor and he made some assumptions and assertions that he should not have. I have little issue with the psychology, I have an issue with the presentation. Unaware of drives does not equal negative consequences. Yet I needed to be warned? I need therapy to understand? By not considering the mind the same as SB I'm in peril?
Fuck off SB.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
