Rituals are the norm

Today, home psychiatry sees ritual as an aberration. Of course, rituals like collecting rubber ducks have grounds for such claims. However, should we consider such rituals as:

– learning a foreign language;

– Visit to the horizontal bars;

– a date with a girl at a certain time;

– work with certain people and phrases at certain times – professionalism.

Do you think it's a ritual?

In order for someone to prove they're not an idiot, they often have to get the same job, meet the same girl, socialize with the same people, and not fall out of the system. Brushing your teeth, similar daily exercises, and even sleeping at the same time can also be considered rituals and accuse a person of having travelled.

In our “random time” there is no single criterion for someone's mental health. It is simply absurd to suggest that there are advantages of one psyche over another. However, in the Age of Judgment everyone sins in this way.

The rituals are a rather vague and erroneous statement. Because the planning of time and life leads to results. And these, in turn, are pseudo-rituals. Even to put junk in a bag you need the same algorithm, and yes, not everyone is as creative as I am – someone needs 60 pieces of black bags for a few months. And what do these people go crazy about after that?
