Cool dude....weird but cool.
Did anyone check out the video where he says he wouldnt treat a patient for Social Anxiety. He considers it more of behavior more then an illness that shouldnt be treated with drugs.

No I haven't seen that video...I'll certainly look out for it. I suppose he is right to a certain extent, it is about adjusting learned behaviours. But having said that many SA sufferers also have depression so anti-depressants are certainly appropriate in some cases.

Fully agree with him. I strongly believe that about 1/12 people on this website who've registered don't have social anxiety. Just low self-esteem/confidence. (How common is that in life?) which leads the person to believe they have some sort of "disorder"

Haha. I love that guy. At first, I seriously thought he was an escaped mental patient having some fun with a camera. But as I watched more videos and saw that he was actually well-groomed and professional in some of them, I realized it's all theatrical. He's awesome, but I don't agree his take on SA.

yea he should take sa more seriously
