    Because Placebo means, ( As much as i know. ) .. Wait, i can't explain it. Let me give an example.
    Let's say that you're sick. They give you a candy, but in a look of medicine. They make you eat it. And then they say '' You will be cured because of that medicine. '' And the person who ate that candy things that: '' I will be cured because of that medicine! '' And he gets cured. But it's because that he thought of that way. If he knew that it was a candy, he wouldn't be cured.

    But music does affect mood and disposition. It's not a placebo, like those stupid Balance Bands or Energy Bands. It's a stimuli for release of chemicals. Like when you listen to music you like, it releases endorphins. Calming music can put you to sleep, while energetic music can make you want to dance.

    But seriously, I call Balance Bands Tard-Detectors, because only morons wear them.

    Nah. Maybe you have gone to your bed like this: '' I will listen to this music, and i'm going to feel more rested and relaxed next morning! ''
    Maaybe. I didn't knew about musics.

    Also i seriously agree about that.

    Just check with your friendly neighborhood scientist, so I can shove logic down your throat.

    did you look it up?

    were you certain of your idea?

    did you do research about music?

    no?

    then don't say shit about it perhaps?


    if you're going to dispute something, don't think, KNOW

    alright?

    It would help to know about something you do call factual information, so we don't end up in this situation. Ya know?

    You were not certain, therefore you shouldn't automatically assume you are right.


    That's it, if you can't grasp that idea then I can't have a decent conversation with you, as you'd assume everything you say is true without even the slightest notion of thinking, "Gee, I have no idea what I'm talking about, maybe I shouldn't say anything about that particular topic, or perhaps I should look into it to further said topic, or maybe even ask about more info on it and actually learn something." Simple as that, don't say something you aren't sure of. Alright?

  16. But doesn't positive thinking have an effect on treatments. Like if two people are given a legit treatment, and one believes strongly in it, and the other thinks it's a crock of shit, won't the positive thinker do better? Especially in terms of things like music, or therapy, or physio, etc.

    I thought that i knew it..
    I know, but i thought i knew it.

    Yes. If one wants positive results, the results for them usually are better than one who thinks it'll be worse.

    I was on imgur the other day and I saw this thing where nurses started putting IVs with superhero logos on them and told kids that inside was a superhero formula that was supposed to make them better.
