What would happen if ACT was replaced with Julian's routine? As a palliative treatment for tinnitus?
What if people with tinnitus and chronic painful health problems were encouraged by physicians to disconnect from reality, emmerse themselves in fan fic, and make dumb retarded graphical art as a way to deal with anxiety and suffering?
This could be considered a genuine treatment option by the state's absurd standards and fit right in with CBT, TRT, and ACT. But it's
NOT economically feasible. The goal of ACT is to prevent people with tinnitus and any other horrible non life threatening condition from collecting disability income.
Julian is a special needs disabled person's
special needs disabled person" parallel to the statement (he's
a man's man" )
This person not only survives but THRIVES in a fictional psychosis world they have created. In which most people would consider a meaningless depressing life of a retard. It shows the power of the mind, and reality is what you make it.
Principles of chaos magick.
However once again if Julian's lifestyle became a palliative treatment for tinnitus, it might alleviate suffering and seriously compete with CBT and ACT. But it won't payback the tax payer, therefore it's not taken seriously by medical academia and Government.
That's right, acting like a fucking retard unironically may be just as effective as CBT, TRT and ACT on tinnitus. It just has ZERO economic value, and since he's on disability unemployed. We already know why it's discouraged behavior.
