    Let’s see here, listen to my therapist who has decades of real experience or a study from over 20 years ago?

    Sorry bud, I know who I’m going with on this and it ain’t your academic.

      Your therapist is still utilizing Freudian psychoanalysis?

      Well, if age is a factor in your opinion about the validity of the care you receive, I have some bad news for you…

            The point is you can reduce anything to its origin. That does not mean it’s still the same thing.

              Okay, but how does the modern version of cathartic theory differ from what freud postulated?

              I agree you can’t reduce things based on its original alone , which is why I included a scientific source as evidence…

                I don’t know, that’s why I have a therapist, I’m not educated in psychology. But I do recognize a logical fallacy when I see one.

                  I doubt that, so far your argument has been based on the anecdotal fallacy mixed with a bit of the appeal to authority fallacy.
