underlying contempt; and many
other modes of contempt ac-
company this expunging of what
other people are inside. It is our
contempt for people that makes
us feel anxious, nervous, agi-
tated among them.
We feel deeply that people
should be against us, because of
the way we have thought about
them, made fun of them, de-
spised them in our minds—and
I love Aesthetic Realism
for showing: no person
who truly wants to under-
stand other people will
have that awful nervous-
ness about them!

not thought of them, made them
into shadows. The state of mind
of a person terrified about speak-
ing among a group of people is
like that of a thief who is sur-
rounded by persons he recently
robbed, and who has their hot
cash in his pockets: he breaks
out in a sweat because he bilked
them, is scared he will be found
out, yet also thinks he deserves
to be. That is why people have
“social phobia”: they feel deeply
they have been unjust to their
“fellow humans,” and then they
are confronted by people repre-
senting those “fellow humans.”
They also have a hope to see
sensitive royalty in a,s
uncaring philistines and bnites?
Aesthetic Realism Consultations
In Aesthetic Realism consulta-
tions, which represent thrilling,
you’ve had them in your mind?
Do you think other people are
worth understanding? If you were
with people and really wanted
to understand them, would you
be afraid?
There are many other ques-
tions Aesthetic Realism consul-
tants would ask. The questions
Aesthetic Realism enables a per-
son to ask are the most beau-

Anxiety or Knowledge?
By Ellen Reiss
I am going to use an article
that appeared in the New York
Times...to illustrate, a little, the
difference1 between Aesthetic
Realism’s Way of seeing the self
Und that of contemporary psy-
chiatry. It is the difference,
really, between kind civilization
and dark, mean, fundamental
ignorance. The headline writer
gave the article the misleading
title “Old As Society, Social
Anxiety Is Yielding Its Secrets :
if one of those “secrets” is the
cause of such anxiety, it’s quite
clear that it hasn’t yielded itself
to the various psychiatrists cited
in the article.
First, reporter Erica Goode
describes a man with “social
phobia,” or “social anxiety dis-
order”: “Gatherings of his fellow
humans? caused him “heart-
pounding dread.” “At work he
dreadcdmeetings” and “pray[ed]
he would not have to speak.”
Then we are told that this dis-
order is “the third most com-
mon psychiatric condition,” and
that- there are “new drug treat-
ments” for it. And we meet the
customary psychiatric method
for covering up the fact that
therapists do not underetynAtfee
human self and whjtw peopldt$
fdel bad: we are told “evidence
suggests” that the cause of this
trouble is “genetic.”
