Reply to Nietzsche is better understood as the Father of Psychoanalysis than Existentialism; his philosophy has two components: the diagnosis of our culture's Decadence (under the Ascetic Ideal) and a prescription for health in the Dionysian Counter-Ideal by thelivingphilosophy
Lots of Freud's students ripped Psychology apart, not even knowing where his ideas actually came from. We've been spending decades trying to heal whatever happened between Kant, Schopenhauer and Nietzsche and Cognitive Therapy regarding human behaviour. In all honestly, hot take, but Psychology is today, what those 3 exposed 150sh years ago. We havent added a single thing.
There's this weird thing in Psychology where the students of great theorist tend to be extremely ignorant of whatever made the "teacher" wise. Freud actually quoted a lot of thinkers in his early works, Jung was incredibely smart too, their theories got extremely deluted with time tho. Their theories got watered down over time, as if his students understood no more than the superficial components of their rhetoric. The words they used are currently interpreted as the word itself, without the relevant epistemological considerations.
As a matter of fact, in psychology we don't read Schopenhauer, Kant, or Nietzsche, we don't even read Plato. We do not revise philosophy of mind and do very little to understand philosophy of science. We are a self sabotaging practice.

Without overthinking experience can't be made. You can make as much mistakes as you want, as long as you dont meditate over them, there's no learning experience.
