Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Thanks, that was helpful. I appreciate you expanding on that.
I've been increasingly interested in psychology, especially as it relates to therapy and human development. I'd definitely seen the term psychoanalysis in some places but thinking back it's definitely been in sources that are on the more "esoteric" side.
I'll take a better look at the wiki page, but in your opinion do you think there's anything of substance worth looking for in old "research" done by Freud and Jung? Should it just serve as history now?
Like, is the concept of a "shadow" useful even as a kind of metaphor? Or, is it better to just read the latest research in psychology and therapy to really understand what's going on in our heads?
