I guess you’d need an expert psychiatrist rationalist to benefit from this angle. Any obvious advice runs too high a risk of being invalidated by more solid facts known about people in such conditions, so one would need to start with that knowledge.
Thanks for the quick response.
I have some trouble understanding, probably due to the language barrier. Do you mean 1) if at all, olny an “expert psychiatrist rationalist” might talk him out of it, or, 2) I should seek knowledge from such a person?
if 2), where to find them? Any suggestions?
I’m not aware of anyone here being a professional psychiatrist, so can’t help with that. I’m only warning that seeking advice from people who know nothing about a phenomenon is generally a bad idea, even if those people have some orthogonal advantage. For example, it’s (much) better to seek construction advice from an ordinary engineer that from a genius who is not an engineer.
