Before you say “'Academic level' is laughable” — Why I used that term

Last time, I shared that I am writing articles that translate the unconscious structure of an 'academic level' into your daily life in the simplest way in the world. Details here👇

To be honest

I am not affiliated with any academic society, nor have I ever written a research paper (lol).
I majored in economics in college, and I don't have any experience studying psychology systematically or professionally.

So, if I say 'academic level,' I wouldn't be surprised if some people laugh and say, 'Huh? You don't even know what you're talking about.'

Honestly, I really don't know much about it.

Even so, I dared to use this term.

The true meaning of saying 'academic level'

What I am doing is not just intuition or playing with spiritual sensations.
I observe and verbalize the 'structures' that repeatedly emerge in people's unconscious during sessions and daily dialogues.

Why I can call it 'academic level'

• It has a unique structure
  I define reproducible frameworks myself, such as the 'Lid,' 'Core of Talent,' and 'Kotomori-style 5 Steps.' These fulfill the role of 'conceptual models' required academically.

• Systematization of phenomena is progressing
  I repeatedly extract the same patterns from sessions and experiences. In academic fields like 'clinical psychology' and 'phenomenology,' this theorization from repeated observation is fundamental.

• It can be connected to existing theories
  Compared to Jung's collective unconscious or Freud's repression theory, the metaphor of the 'Lid' is consistent and can be developed further. In other words, it can be presented as a 'complementary/extension theory.'

These are not one-off ideas, but things that have become visible from patterns that repeat inside people over and over again.
I have compiled them and expressed them as a system.

That is why I use 'academic level' as a metaphor, meaning 'a system robust enough to be presented to an academic society.'

Precisely because I want to avoid misunderstanding

Of course, I do not belong to an academic society, nor have I had a 'paper accepted.'
There is no bluffing or exaggeration in that.

However, in terms of 'systematized understanding of the structure of the unconscious,' I feel that it is at a level that would not be out of place even when compared to existing academic studies.
I chose the term 'academic level' to convey that in a single phrase.

To be perfectly honest

Perhaps it is precisely because I don't know much about academic societies that I have been able to come this far without being bound by existing frameworks.

I have trusted only the way people in front of me change and the structures that have emerged from the depths of my own sea, rather than authority or titles.

That is why I use the expression 'academic level' on my own responsibility.

In closing

It's fine if some people laugh.
But if even one person understands, 'Oh, that's what they mean by that,' then that is enough for me.

What I value is—
translating and illuminating the structure of the unconscious.

In other words, translating the talent within your unconscious to light the path of your life.

The expression 'academic level' is also a phrase I chose to convey even a little of that depth.
I would be happy if you could understand.

If, after finishing reading, you feel 'something has shifted' rather than 'I understand.'
That is a sign that the 'assumptions' within you have begun to waver.

What we handle at withchat is the 'structural assumptions' that dull your decision-making.

We do not deal in encouragement or know-how.
This is time for you to stand in a position from which you cannot return.
