Comments by "Itinerant Patriot" (@itinerantpatriot1196) on "Why are so Many People Neurotic? - Carl Jung as Therapist" video.
The point about parenting lying at the root of most neurosis is spot on. Sometimes the effect is benign, sometimes not so much. Lee Oswald slept in the same bed with his mother until he was 11. Does this mean that led to his becoming an assassin? No, but she certainly didn't help him form a healthy view of society. On the flipside, some people from dysfunctional homes achieve great things, perhaps because they had to fight so hard to overcome a crummy childhood. I know this much, no amount of medication can help people overcome their anxieties, yet that is the most common solution offered to people. Mothers little helper right?
