#i will say im able bodied so that might influence my perception

[littleogreboii]

i see a lot of people talk about edward being disabled in fma, but it's less often talked about how alphonse is also disabled. i think it's partially because alphonse doesn't experience physical pain like edward so for a majority of the series, he's not having any of those kind of symptoms, but he is still disabled. also because alphonse's experiences are unique. like you don't see ant walking, talking suits of armour in real life (unless they're piloted by a human being physically inside them) and in world, there are about 3 others like alphonse).

alphonse is dependent on edward's survival to function. after fighting scar for the first time, alphonse is literally in pieces. he can't walk or anything until edward is in a position to fix him. similarly his body is dependent on nutrients from edward's body. like there's the point towards the end where edward gets impaled and alphonse collapses. furthermore, these periods where alphonse collapses start to become debilitating towards the end of the series and massively alter his daily living.

also, alphonse constantly talks about how upsetting it is for him to not feel any physical sensations. yeah, he's not feeling physical pain, but he's also not feeling the warmth of a fire, the sun on his face, or the fluffiness of the cats he keeps petting. he talks a lot about not being able to eat or sleep, and how there's a lot of foods he wants to try.

there's another thing that highlighted by edward at one point. alphonse's body doesn't regenerate at all. the parts scar destroys are gone forever; edward stretches out the metal that alphonse has left to repair his body. and obviously human beings don't regrow limbs, but imagine if your skin didn't ever heal over a cut. how long would your body last?

also alphonse gets told several times that his body is great throughout the series, and he literally argues against it every time, because to him it is shit. like he is missing some of his senses just for some supposedly immortal body that isn't even immortal.

even once alphonse gets his own body back, the amount of physical therapy the boy has to go through. his body has essentially been doing nothing and only receiving what nutrients it can get from edward for years. by the end of the series, he's still using a cane as a walking aid. it's unknown whether he requires that cane for the years to come, but for at least a period of time he requires a mobility aid. I don't know enough to say what effect muscle decay from inactivity and severe malnourishment during a major portion of his teenage years would have long term.

I'm here for you (part 2 )

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

DISCLAIMER: it is the continuation of the previous ''I'm here for you'', with the younger brothers. I had the idea to develop more about MC's point of view (to be more precise about what makes them feel sad). ( Part 1 below ) https://www.tumblr.com/0mcsheep0/711531618684289025/im-here-for-you?source=share

Warnings : sad topics in which the brothers would comfort you

Characters : Satan, Asmo, Beel, Belphie

GN!MC

-> The brothers when MC is feeling sad <-

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Satan (academic failure)

Satan is one of the most intelligent (if not the wisest) demons of Devildom; everyone knew it. He was also the closest of the seven brothers to you, the perfect sentimental and supportive guy. You often came into his room to study RAD for your future exams. He was patient and would explain any subject well. Last night, you were stressing out about that important math examen coming up the next day. You feel bad about it, even if you’ve been studying it for a week. As you were reading your notes laid on the bed, Satan checked up on you: « Hey there, MC. You’ve been quite academic for the past few days, and I noticed you’d neglected your health. When was the last time you had a consistent sleep schedule? Have you eaten this morning? You seem so tense; let me give you a shoulder massage ». How kind of Him! You got on your belly while Satan climbed on your back, his smooth but firm grip on your back muscles. « You think I will be good tomorrow? I’m afraid I will forget everything because of the stress. If so, I know I might get grounded by Lucifer… » you said with a sigh. ** The next day Even with Satan’s comforting words, you still couldn’t stay in place as you started your exam. It didn’t go as well as it was supposed to. Unfortunately, despite all your efforts, you still missed a few questions, which influenced your grade to lower at the bare minimum required. You felt empty after the test; you went home and locked yourself in your room. A few hours later, the blond demon knocked at your door, but even if it was locked, he used his magic to reach you. You were sobbing on your pillow. « Hey, kitten….. Levi told me you left RAD earlier. I know it was your exam this morning; I presume you are in this state because it didn’t go well, was it » he asked with a sad look. It didn’t go well? No, it was disastrous for both your final paper and your self-esteem. You were so confident about yourself; did you succumb to your anxiety? Even if you tried so, you could never be as good as the others. The worst part of it was that you tried! « Can I sit next to you »? You nodded. « Listen, MC; I’m aware of how frustrating you might have felt at the moment because, behind my look of the perfect student, I sometimes feel stressed too. You shouldn’t be ashamed of yourself. With practice, you will be able to perform under stress like a pro, I promise ». You smiled a bit; then Satan brought you into his arms for a loooong hug.

Asmo (bad image of your body)

Asmo always cheers you up when you are questioning how worthy you think you are. You are nothing but the perfection in his eyes, the little sunshine that brightens his days in this dark world of devils. We all know that Asmodeus is hiding behind his confident and cocky appearance, insecurities, and fears about others’ perceptions of him. When times like this happened, you comforted him by saying, Everyone has his thoughts about other people, some are bad, but some are flattering. You must always think good about yourself and not let others bring you down. You were always the one who comforted him; never would he have thought YOU would be the one who needed him. You were sitting on your bed, clothes scattered everywhere on the floor. There was a big party at Diavolo’s castle tonight, in which you should be present, and you wanted to wear something elegant for the event. The problem was that you needed to determine what to choose; all your clothes seemed too casual. You didn’t have the money to buy something beautiful, and anyways, those types of clothes were styles to fit demon figures (holes for wings/tail, large sized because I headcanon the demons to be naturally taller than humans). You were desperate, and tears were slowly filling your eyes because of the frustration you felt at the instant. You searched for something cool to wear for almost two hours, but nothing was good enough. You looked at yourself in the mirror, and intrusive yet exaggerated thoughts entered your mind. Could your silhouette be the problem? Maybe everything was looking wrong on you, and it was your fault. You could never look as great surrendered by demons; they all looked magnificent, and you are only a human.

*** knock knock ***

You recognized Asmo’s voice behind the door, announcing his upcoming in your room. He was also invited to the party, and you felt even worse when you saw how stunning he looked in his relevant outfit. « My, my MC… what is all this mess made for? Your beautiful clothes will be dusty and wrinkled! Have you found what you’ll be wearing tonight»? You looked at him, clearly looking exasperated. Asmo was now looking at you with a concerned expression. You? Crying over something as simple as a lack of items of clothing? That wasn’t like you, the MC he knew wouldn’t give up that easily over something unworthy. He thought about what could have made you feel that way; « Mc dear… you aren’t concerned about how you might look around everyone else, right»? The tears were now showing on your shameful face. « Listen now. You are the most pretty person I’ve ever seen in my life. You heard me right; I said the most pretty PERSON, which means I’m comparing you to every species I know. It would help if you didn’t even compare yourself to others ». Those words; you’ve heard them countless times from many people. As insignificant as they might have sounded, the comment went directly to your heart. Asmo, the one you loved the most in the three worlds, thought this much about you? You smiled, then stood up with a sudden burst of confidence: 

« Well, my clothes won’t get chosen if we stay in place. Would you mind helping me with that » you asked the fifth-born. 

Beel (guilt of eating)

Beel is the most thoughtful, generous, and loving demon of all the Devildom, and he shows it daily to his brothers and you. Constantly checking up on others, he is someone you can rely on every time for anything. You trusted him, so you told him about something that had made you sad for the past few weeks. To be exact, HE was the one who initiated the talk since he caught you doing something he would never understand; restricting yourself from eating. Last night, he sneaked to the kitchen for a midnight snack when he noticed your dinner still on the fridge shelf. How could you skip dinner? From Beel's point of view, dinner time is the most satisfying time of the day. He hesitated to eat it but finally decided to wait till tomorrow to ask you about it. The next day, you answered that you weren't hungry and that it was nothing to worry about since it wouldn't occur again. Beel smiled in relief and left but found your dinner again in the fridge a few hours later. The Lord of the Flies was surprised. He decided to bring the meal directly to your room to have an honest response to your weird behavior. Once he passed your door, the demon was surprised to see you on a weighing scale. You were startled by his arrival and started to cry. « MC? Do you feel ashamed about your weight? Is it why you skipped your meals? Taking such restrictions isn't good for your health; you might end up sick. Please, tell me what's wrong». You explained to him that, for the past few weeks, many lower demons had been mocking you for your weight. You weren't thinking badly about yourself initially, but the repetitive insults were getting to your head. You thought about it more often, starting to wonder if those imbeciles were, in fact, correct about you. Did you overeat? Was your figure pretty enough? Maybe occasionally skipping meals would change your looks, then those unkind demons would shut up. Beelzebub was shocked by everything you said. To his eyes, you are splendid, a perfect work of art. He never thought that stupidities like that would affect you that much. « My love, don't ever get influenced by nasty insults like that again. Those demons are jealous of how good-looking you are, so they try to put you down. Skipping meals won't bring any positive changes to you. If you want to change your appearance, we could work it out together with healthier measures. Please, eat the three meals you need daily; I don't want you to end up sick ». The red-haired demon then got closer to you and hugged you tightly. You are feeling a lot better now.

Belphie (sadness from leaving the Devildom)

It was supposed to be a casual day. Like every other morning, you woke up in your bed sheets, with Belphegor at your side, squatting the left side of your mattress. The weather outside sounded perfect for walking or organizing a picnic with the brothers. A tiny bat (I thought bats would be the ideal representation of ''birds'' down in Devildom since they are nocturnal) got closer to the window of your room as if it was calling for the morning. You straightened up on your bed, carefully resting your back on the wall to not wake the sleepyhead beside you. You reached your D.D.D. to look on Delvilgram; your post from the last day with Asmo on the beach might have gotten many likes! Unfortunately, the message that first popped on your screen faded your smile. Diavolo sent you the following statement: « Good morning MC! You have been staying in the Devildom for two years now; you must return to the human world for a while to see your family. I will pick you up at the front entrance in an hour ». You tilted your head down; time flies so fast when you enjoy your time with the ones you love. Like every time you leave the Devildom, a massive wave of sadness fills your heart. The memories of your good moments with Belphie, as he is the one you love, ran through your mind, and a few tears escaped your eyes and blurred your vision. At this moment, Belphie opened his eyes and frowned; « MC, why are you crying? Did you have another nightmare? Tell me everything ». You quickly announced your future leaving to the youngest brother, and he sighted of disagreement. Of course, he knew that day would come, but he hadn't acknowledged how quickly this day would come. « It sucks; I would have loved to keep you by my side every day, to wake up next to you every morning. I guess I understand that you have to go back to your family, but what about me? You will miss me, am I wrong? (…) Do you remember when we went camping outside the House of Lamentation to see the bright stars illuminating the sky? It was fun, wasn't it? (…) Listen, MC, I won't beat around the bush and will tell you how I feel about the situation. You know that I love you unconditionally and that I will always do. It won't change anything that you leave for another time; I will still love you once you return to me ». His words comforted you; you knew he was thinking everything he said. You smiled, then took him in your arms to enjoy your last moments together.

Reversing 29 years of self-perception

About a year and a half ago I decided to start my active journey of self-love, acceptance, and perception.  I was tired of getting down on myself, putting myself down, letting my self-esteem hold me back from living my life, and attaining a self-image that really isn't realistic for me.  The first thing I wanted to tackle was my health. I started lifting weights at the gym with my friend.  It was really mild, we didn't do much, but just the act of going to the gym with my friend was a start. We all have to start somewhere!

As I started to become more active, I started to take friends up on their offers to go hiking (something I didn't want to do prior due to thinking I was too fat and out of shape, and lazy).  One day my friend asked if I wanted to try Orange Theory. At first I was SO hesitant. I looked it up and saw that part of the circuit is to run on the treadmill. HELL NO. I still had PTSD from when I went running crazy and would run for two hours a day on the treadmill when I was in high school.  After that I just told myself, running isn't for me and thats that.  I decided to step out of my comfort zone and agreed to go.  I know this sounds dramatic...but that day changed. my. life. I remember some of their beginning questions.   “Do you work out often now?” Maybe 3 times a week. Hows that working out? At this point I looked at the guy thinking fuuuuck youuu what kind of question is that.  But I was just being defensive because...It wasn't working out. I was at the heaviest I have been.  Ever.  I mean I felt better for going to the gym, but I wasn't getting the results I wanted.  Then he asked me, “What are your health goals? Do you want to loose weight?”  & part of my self love journey was to change the way I thought about loosing weight.  I made a conscious decision to not aim for “loosing weight”  I understood that being healthy was a lifestyle change.  To have a goal to loose weight is not having a goal to change my life style.  So my goal became making myself feel strong and healthy.  And that has been my goal ever since, and still is.  I hated EVERY minute on the treadmill when I took my first class. For all 30 min, I flooded my brain with negative thoughts and feeling angry that I agreed to come to this stupid class.  When the class was done, I immediately signed up for an unlimited membership. I felt a high I haven't felt since high school.  I felt positive, I felt optimistic, and I thought HELL YEAH, I can come here three + times a week!  The negative thoughts and feelings that I experienced was the result of me being pushed out of my comfort zone. I resisted it mentally but decided that since I was already there, I might as well kindaaa try.  But the endorphin high I received after quickly help me realize that I DID IT, and I can do it again!  Lizzo also became a huge influence when she started rising in fame.  I didn’t know about her before. I’m one of those mainstream junkies. Anyway.  I read an interview where she explained the origin of “Truth Hurts” the break up song of the year. She explained that she wrote that song by going to her producer and venting about a recently failed relationship.  He put her rant with a beat and there it came.  She said it was a dark time for her, filled with self-doubt and depression, and yet she came up with an empowering song that helped millions of women lift their spirits when they did doubt themselves because of a failed relationship.  I read that interview in awe thinking how crazy it is that someone can be at the darkest point in their life and produce the most empowering and inspiring songs.  When she would speak at her concerts (I’m going to be dramatic again but its true), I would literally listen to her speeches and cry tears of happiness and love because of what she was saying. It really touched me  so deep down into my soul and I want to say that has been a HUGE reason why I have been able to come so far in my self-love journey.  I saw her, a big, beautiful woman.  I didn't think she was fat, I didn't think she was unhealthy, I saw a beautiful woman full of confidence and purpose and I wanted to exude that same energy.  That is when I truly started to look at my body and accept it for what it is.   Before this, I have always wanted to get back to how I looked when I was 16.  I finally realized, that is an unattainable goal, and thats okay.  I was so unhealthy during that time.  I counted my calories, I exercised every day with no break.  There was a point that I was so obsessed, I would only eat 3 100 calorie yoplait yogurts a day and drink 3 5 oz wanters a day in attempts to not put on water weight.  If I wanted to eat unhealthy food, I would chew the food, and spit it out without digesting it.  THAT IS CRAZY.  I was starving myself of food AND water. I never want to get back to that. That realization helped me with my relationship with food.  I want to eat food that is helps build my body, is tasty, and I enjoy eating.  I want to enjoy my food and I also want to eat food that helps me feel strong.  So I do that.  I eat healthy food. But if I want a fried chicken sandwich, I’m going to get it. And because I won't go on a strict diet my body will not be what it can be, and I’m okay with it.  I like the body the way it is now, and am fine with sacrificing a banging bod, for being able to enjoy food when I feel like it.  This is my life and these are my priorities.  A year and a half later, I feel I have come so far.  Yes I’ve lost weight.  Don't ask me how much, because I don't know.  I don't want to live my life by the scale like I did at the peak of my eating disorder. But you know what I have noticed? I feel stronger, I can do more things without struggling or getting out of breath, I can push myself further.  When I run on the treadmill in OTF and I am able to bump up my speed or bump up my incline without taking a walking break I feel STRONG, and I feel ABLE.  One of our coaches likes to say “Your body is capable of SO MUCH” and it “it is a privilege to move!” and, it is! Some people are not able to do everything that most of us are able to do, and I shouldn't take that for granted.  I shouldn't dread getting out of bed in the morning to go exercise.  I should be eternally grateful that I get to move.  Some people don’t have that luxury, and sometime in the future, I will be able to less than I can now. I shouldn't waste my time now, while im healthy and able. I am so happy at where I am now.  I feel solid, I feel strong, and I feel like I can do more.  Even though we are on our second shut down, and our state has robbed me of not only my physical escape, but my mental and emotional escape, I will push myself to exercise, I will continue to keep going and do more.  I have come to terms with what my body looks like and I am starting to not just, be okay with my body, but to love my body.  I have come so far but have so far more to go.  Loving yourself is a life long journey and I hope you all are on your way to the top.

SCIENCE LECTURE

In my fic here, Sherlock has a little brainstorming session while drugged out of his mind, and this sheet of notes below is the result of it. I decided to write out a little explanation as to what all the individual parts of it mean. The explanation will be in the format of ITEM - TRANSLATION - BREAKDOWN. The item will be the selection of the notes that the section will be explaining, copied roughly verbatim for the reader's convenience. The translation, if needed, will be translating Sherlock's (my) shorthand into standard notation. The breakdown, then, will be the explanation.

Disclaimer: I was a medical student, before I had to withdraw due to hand injury, and my area of study in undergraduate was neuroscience and neuropsychology (and music performance, but that's not relevant here). I do try and explain everything in layman's terms, but 1) it will get a little technical in parts, fair warning, and 2) I'm still learning on how best to explain concepts to other. I try my best, people!

ITEM 1: THE LIST

1) Narcotics- hallucin? (Translation: Hallucinogen)

2) Sleep dep. Halluc (Translation: Sleep deprivation Hallucination)

3) Mycroft- test?

4) Lights show

5. GMO (Translation: Genetically Modified Organism)

6) Moriarty???

7) Acute psychosis xxx

Breakdown:

In the episode, Sherlock says that he had come up with seven possible reasons for how he, Henry, and John could have all seen the dog-that-could-not-exist, and that he'd settled upon narcotics as the most likely. I came up with a list of seven of my own reasons:

1) Narcotics- hallucinogen: self-explanatory, as explained by the actual episode.

2) Sleep deprivation hallucination: this episode takes place what appears to be several days into pretty severe nicotine withdrawal, for Sherlock. His sleep schedule seems to be disastrous as is, and the nicotine withdrawal would've made him even more wired, so there's a solid chance he hadn't slept for several days, which is long enough to for sleep deprivation-induced hallucinations. While the hypothesis itself is perfectly sound, Sherlock puts it at number 2 instead of 1 because A) Henry ALSO saw the dog, B) sleep deprivation induced hallucinations generally don't start out with a full-fledged monster dog screaming in your face. If this hypothesis had been correct, he should've been experiencing more subtle hallucinations all night long.

3) Mycroft- test?: As discussed in series four, Mycroft occasionally has been employing tests into Sherlock's mental stability for decades, focusing on what Sherlock believes to be a dog. Sherlock, being Sherlock, has likely noticed this. Mycroft knows Sherlock is hanging around Baskerville. Sherlock also knows Mycroft knows this. Under the influence of a paranoia-inducing narcotic, Sherlock very easily could suspect his nosy brother at being somehow responsible.

4) Lights show: Again, inspired by series 4, and how the illusion of a ghost is created in TAB with nothing more than a projector. The logistics of how this would actually work are hazy, which is why this is further down the list, and quickly discounted by Sherlock.

5) GMO: While GMOs are usually discussed in the context of resilient strains of plants, all it really means is genetically modified organism. I'm speaking as one educated in 2014+, not 2012 (the ep air date), but breeding an especially large dog, and genetically modifying it to have red eyes, would probably not be too difficult a feat, scientifically. It could even be glowing, if you spliced in that GFP gene that the scientist mentions! However, this possibility is unlikely, because it raises the very big question as to why the scientists would allow their experiment to roam wild and attack people, why the scientists would bother making it in the first place, why haven't others taken pictures, etc. This is why it's so low on the list.

6) Moriarty???: Similar premise as the Mycroft's inclusion.

7) Acute psychosis xxx: AKA, "I lost my mind". Very unlikely, because it doesn't explain why Henry shared his hallucination, has no explanation as to why or how, and he has no other symptoms suggestive of a psychotic break. Which is why Sherlock scratched it out, and marked it with three Xs.

ITEM 2: THE FEEDBACK LOOP

This refers to the diagram, sitting just to the right of the list.

Breakdown:

X -> SNS Act -> Occ. -> (SNS Act) | (Amyg up) (Temporal) (up up Amyg)

Translation:

Unknown Substance X -> Sympathetic Nervous System Activation -> Occipital Cortex

(Amygdala stimulation) (Temporal) (Further Amygdala stimulation)

Let's define some terms!

This little diagram is a positive feedback loop, drawn very messily and with multiple steps added in after the fact. In biology, a feedback loop is a circuit in which the output of a system feeds back around to affect the system's input, which indirectly affects the system's output again, and so on. A simple example of a positive feedback loop is as follows: Addition of Substance X to System yields output of Substance Y. Substance Y triggers the production of more of Substance X, which again yields the output of more of Substance Y, which again triggers more production of Substance X- and so on. (feedback loops in the body are far more complicated, and most will eventually trigger their own end, etc, but such discussion is beyond the purpose of this post).

Unknown Substance X = input of whatever Sherlock was drugged with

Sympathetic Nervous System = simplistically speaking, our autonomic nervous system has two parts that work together, the sympathetic nervous system, and the parasympathetic nervous system. PNS can be summed up as rest and digestion, while SNS can be summed up as fight or flight.

Occipital Cortex = simplistically speaking, the visual center in the brain. There are other areas involved, but this area is the key and center to visual perception.

Temporal = simplistically speaking, the auditory cortex in the brain.

Amygdala = simplistically speaking, the fear center of the brain.

(I am defining all these terms as their relation to this situation at hand, nothing more. The brain is not so simple as to allocate X Function to Y cortex.)

So, Sherlock theorizes that input of Drug X stimulates the SNS and/or the amygdala, which caused inappropriate occipital lobe stimulation leading to hallucinations, which increased Sherlock's fear response, which caused further SNS activation, and so on. He suggested temporal lobe as a possible step; however, at no point during the episode did the drug cause auditory hallucinations, which is why it's not including in the loop proper.

There are actually a few problems with his loop, because he drew it out on the fly, while high off his mind, and he's not a neuroscientist, but he's got the right idea. The inappropriate, uncontrollable stimulation of the amygdala is almost certainly what Drug X causes, and would result in fear, paranoia, and increased suggestibility, all stated symptoms of Drug X. Inappropriate amygdala stimulation leads to inappropriate SNS activation, which encourages hallucinations, but would not cause them directly. It's likely that the drug also caused overproduction of dopamine, which can cause hallucinations. (However, there is no guarantee the occipital cortex was involved).

Whatever the chemical cause of the hallucination, he "sees" the dog, freaks out more, amygdala continues to be stimulated, freaks out because he’s Sherlock and isn’t used to freaking out, and the cycle continues, which is what leads to Sherlock's panic attack/meltdown in the pub- short-term, we're able to handle those stress reactions, especially if they're rational reactions to a stimulus, but keep them going for hours at a time and the body will start to freak out.

ITEM THREE: SYMPTOMS LIST

3a. Tachycardia, (up)hidrosis, shaking, panic attack?, nausea, emesis

(up)hidrosis = hyperhidrosis

Breakdown: Very rapid heartrate, increased sweating, shaking, nausea, emesis = vomiting, panic attack? (Question mark because Sherlock is not convinced of the diagnosis. Even high off his mind, he's still got his pride- he's Sherlock Holmes! He does not Get panic attacks! >;0)

3b. NOT NICOTINE, WITHDRAWAL UPUPUP

Breakdown: as John says in the pub, Sherlock was pretttty wired before all of this. Sherlock notes down that these symptoms are not the result of the nicotine withdrawal, because he can still feel the now increased effects of the nicotine withdrawal going on alongside these new symptoms. Chemically speaking, Drug X probably wouldn’t have any /direct/ effect on nicotine withdrawal, but it very well might exacerbate it indirectly.

3c. OH NO EFFECT - NOT STIMULANT

Translation: Alcohol no effect - not stimulant

Alcohol, to our bodies, is a depressant. If you drink it with a straight stimulant, like caffeine, their effects will counteract each other; for example, if I want to drink but keep clear-headed, I'll have a soda with my glass of wine. (DISCLAIMER: this will not make it safe to drive, this will not prevent alcohol poisoning, this can be dangerous, and do not do it in anything but careful moderation). Sherlock, as seen in the show, gets a shot of alcohol, probably in a desperate bid to calm down. It also does not work at all, because he was not dosed with a stimulant, but a hallucinogenic. The hallucinations led to stimulant-esque effects, but with no stimulant to counteract, Sherlock would simply end up sloshed and panicking. Sherlock realizes that the alcohol is not having the desired affect, and, when he realizes he was drugged, concludes that it therefore can not have been with a simple stimulant.

ITEM FOUR: DIAGRAM B

Oral --> long-lasting VS inhale --> feedback loop

no IV/IM

BLOOD TEST NEC ASAP (check)

Breakdown:

While the identity/structure of the drug he was dosed with are important, the route/method of administration are also a huge factor of variability that affects the intensity and timeline of the symptoms. Sherlock mentions four different routes of administration, here: oral (PO), inhalation, IV, and IM (intramuscular). A drug taken orally will have slower and longer lasting effects than one that is inhaled: one that is inhaled will act almost immediately, as seen in the episode, and its effect will also wear off very quickly.

Sherlock theorizes he must have taken the drug either orally or inhaled it, because the only other options are being stuck with a needle at some point, which he is sure never occurred. (Really, there are a few other options, most notably transdermal, that is unlikely for other reasons). Because the drug affects him for so long, he assumes he must have taken it orally, but also allows inhalation a spot on the list, by noting it could have instigated a feedback loop, and continued affecting him even after it'd left his system. He also notes the need for an urgent blood test, in the case that there are still some traces left to analyze. Especially if the drug was inhaled, the blood needs to be drawn ASAP. (Without any information on the chemical structure of Drug X, though, I can’t make any sort of estimation on what results Sherlock’s own blood test would show, with the sample drawn ~8 hours after being dosed).

ITEM FIVE: TIMELINE

To the left of diagram B, eleven hash marks next to a supremely messy "hours". AKA, eleven hours of 'experimentation', after Sherlock realizes he was drugged.

(upside down-items):

ITEM SIX: FORMULA

C12H22O11

The chemical formula for a sugar, which, as Sherlock states in the episode, was his initial theory. This would suggest PO as method of administration, not inhalation, but Sherlock's also not thinking too straight, right now. Give him a break. (He's also probably got a ton more information on PO medications in his head than airborne compounds).

ITEM SEVEN: SHERLOCK'S THEORY

THC? -amyg overstim in subject

-no SNS activ

(scratched out, termed STUPID by Sherlock)

Translation:

THC? - amygdala overstimulation in subject

-no SNS activation

Breakdown (this is the most technical passage of the post, fair warning:)

The 'subject' in this case refers to Sherlock. THC, as you probably know, is is the primary hallucinogenic/psychoactive component of cannabis (marijuana). Also as you probably know, cannabis tends to reduce anxiety effects in most individuals, but in some, it results in a paradoxical panic reaction. We're not entirely sure why, but this panic reaction appears to be due to GABA paradoxical disinhibition. Essentially, in a standard patient, cannabis leads to mass increases in GABA, which is the calm-down chemical in the brain. However, in these select patients, cannabis' initial activation of GABA may lead to the brain telling the production of GABA itself to calm down, which lead to an overall decrease in GABA levels in the amygdala, which leads to a panic reaction. (Disclaimer: This is still a working theory in the scientific community, and all depends on an individual's makeup of receptors and neural circuits. This is by no means settled discussion, either the end result or its mechanism.)

Overall, irrelevant to THC and cannabis, patients with severe childhood trauma do tend to have amygdalas that are primed for overstimulation (possibly by the very process described in the paragraph above). Whether Sherlock deleted Eurus and Victor or not, those neurological affects aren't something he could just will away. This is not saying that if you have childhood trauma, you will have a negative reaction to cannabis- but it IS saying that Sherlock might be a candidate expected to have a negative reaction.

Now, given Sherlock's extensive drug history, I'm sure he tried cannabis, at some point. It is also, however, never once brought up in the series proper, which suggests he has absolutely no interest in trying it again- perhaps because he had a negative reaction the first time. The panic reaction and amygdala overstimulation would probably feel similar to how Drug X affected him, which is why, initially, Sherlock writes it down as a suggestion, and also notes that it would not directly cause SNS activation. (At this point, he is not sure if SNS activation is a direct symptom or not).

He then swiftly marks it out as a stupid theory, because he realizes that he has a very atypical reaction to THC, so the likelihood of Henry sharing his hallucination and panic is very low. More to the point, because his reaction is so atypical and unpredictable, it makes no sense that unknown criminals would drug them with it.

TO SUM UP:

Sherlock is a graduate chemist, not a medical doctor, neuroscientist, or neuropsychologist. He does seem to have a great degree of interest and expertise in pharmacology, and probably also has a lot of knowledge in different routes of administration, due to his own personal history and his interest in forensics. However, he has no need to know, for example, the exact neuro-chemical causes of hallucinations. Therefore, his sheet of data is intentionally a bit spotty and with questionable accuracy, at points. (He also gets a bit of a break, considering he was "off his tits", or whatever the fuck that means, at the time. Poor guy needs a rest and a blanket and a hug.)

And that sums up Ranowa's entirely unnecessary lecture on pharmacodynamics!

The Matrix is about:

One of the many things the matrix is about

lit rev lol jk: This adds to many story archetypes, but for now I’ll start with this one. The story goes where the hero works so hard that they transcend the known boundries of human ability... right? Well, the matrix is about a world where your literal human physical capacity had nothing to do with your ability. Rahter, it was your will power that gave you power. The more will power, the more buddha af you can get with the new tech scene you get, the more power you get is related to will power. Also, this is totlaly Sword art online. I’m watching it rn, and realizing ye, not the whole second season is esspeeeeeciilay about that. And its interesting, I started to think about it in regards to the system of SAO. Gilard, gillian, i don’t remember but I know it started with a G. -- Gary! But ye, the system as Kirito has always said, is fair. Cruel but fair.  SEason two is about an unfair world. A false quest with no chance to win. A lie to occupy your time. (insert bread and circuses refference and then were all like, holly fukc thats deep.. yep)... with ulterior motives.  In the end, (i haven’t re watched it yet, I’m on the second to last episode but I remember, and I’l post about it after I watch it again, but the rules are cheated right, like in  agame console sort of way hwere they take away all your agency wthorugh the oncolse of just taking your shit. right, but here lets look at it. He turns up the gravity, the pain, all of it. and kirito is like fuck all this shit im muther fuckin kirito mutha fuckas, and then the other dude is like, but how even. high turnt it up all the way, how could anyones zen af (budhha super power shit be over 9---1 so much that he grew really fucking long ass goku hair - metaphorically) and mentally blocked out the signals from the gear helmet and the server and continued to send the kirito signals effectively overriding the games lock out because the signal from kiriot was literally stronger, as in connection speed. 

ye Im’ high 

But where is the signal coming from that interacts with this world... the signal is his brain. The technology interface is just transmiting that movement. The movement your character makes is transfering the desired mental movemnt you want to make wth your mental image of the 3d surroundings, so, its not vr right, so you actually feel the touch of stuff, you can -connect- with tthe world. But there, thats it exactly, the connection. The touch to the object and the signal sent back to the brain to decode the information from the program into an undertandable format.... see, the concepts that this boils down to is a battle of wills. The human computer, it can change. A regular computer would have a bit more difficulty rearranging their literal hardware. The human brain’s hardware can literally change. Thats where we have machines beat... for now. The point is, the world’s influence on your character is a signal in response to your signal, your body affects your perception of what you believe you can do based on the conclusion you came to about the stimulus from your perception on reality.  Basically, will power in this context is trying to overpower the machiens return signal. Its basically jesus shit hacking “reality”. But here that gets deeper, because the later matrix movies addersssed that, albeit, it was not popular, and I didn’t really like it either. Buuut. the point is here now, wtf is reality. Is reality what we can see, touch, taste and feel... no.  Those are chemical reactions in the brain synthesizing this sensory input and then decoding these messages into some form of conclusionary understanding.  thats literally reality. This can be compared to so many things with different nuances and parralles.  but the mother fuckin matrix.  Neo does the ihack The Matrix (tm I don’t know how to do that), in “the real world” in the movie the matrix, nd its still actually in the matrix. thats when they realize they are still in the matrix, even when they previously thought they were out of the matrix... blah blah dream within a dream, blah blah connection connection trope trope archetype archetype new camera angles edgy 9-’s and societies new facination into gay culture and then boom ahead sisters wakoski’s we see that very much fits. This is some deep shit. And Now I know why when we went over this film speciically in my cerebral science fiction class, that expalins why the professor was getting high af.... Cause thats what I’m doing now and I’m hella analyzing it. but, I mean, I do that anyway. But ye, weed is dope Guardians, I highly suggest you get into this if its legal where you live, and if not push legislature to make it legal and then smoke a shit ton cause its great.  from a game logic standpoint it would seem that first and foremost before any locking codes, at the core level, the avatar in world would be able to do anything.  The constraining game code is designed to trick the mind into thinking it has these limitations. But kirito reveals this (I haven’t actually seen the episode again, I’m just recognizing where it looks like its gonna go, and that I think I vagually remember thats what it might touch on, or that the previous reason was the one, or both. idfk fuck it But ye, heavy on the mind over matter.  at the end of it. the message is that the digital world does not have the limitations that our perceived physical or material world holds. And that even putting constraints on these people, there will always be a human spirit strong enough to break free and create a revolution.  Because thats what its about. Its a story about revolution.  About freeing your mind. Its the myth, and reason. Myth and Reason, as archetypes. Myth being something that is our understanding of the universe, scary, witches, shamans, medicine people, but then “reason” sweeps by. Reason just being a new regime. A new understanding of the world. A constructed ideology about how the past beleives are bad, and that reason usually brings a great deal of violence. But eventually reason turns back into myth. Reason here is the development of what we consider to be the modern technological world, brought to this reason from myth such as ancient stories across the earth.  We have recontextualized our world.  But here in the matrix we see so clearly the archetype that so many of us recognize.  Its the reason returning to myth. Reason lied the whole time. They were lying, and wrong. Some of them knew they were wrong, but went with it, some of them, just were shits.  Pointing back to myth and the matrix,  this is the world of reason. Technology, but we see this as a common theme that I think should be looked at more closely as to the significance of it and not just philsoophical bullshit, because what we are talking about actually, is socialogy,, its the study of psychology, communication, folkloristics, history. We are studying why humans do the things they do and why and what led them to these conclusions and what can we learn from that to not fuck shit up as much in the future.  returning totopic of reason and myth, myth here is the concept of mind over matter.  When we talk about code as a metaverse, anomalies in code, you can see it in games when ai does things that are fucking wierd, like for exampel that video of the reef guard walking off the edge. Its the myth that there are aspects of this universe that we cannot fully understand just because of the sheer amounts of data. Very similar to our current physical reality.  Its the works like alphaville, .HackSign, ergo proxy, and so much more that I’m missing righ tnow, but this is.... some deep shit.  Myth is just that. A myth. but its also so much more.  See, the biggest myth of them all. The point of all of this so concisely.  The biggest myth of them all is that reason is anything but just another myth. In this sense, the archetype of reason is a lie.  The archeytpe of reason is to create meaning of the world.  But is it possible, that in our efforts to create meaning in the world, that we actually destoryed or could no longer see the actual meaning of the world. That our creation of reason and our labeling of our previous existence a “myth”. Is that not actually just a power play creating a new set of myths.  What does that say when this “reason” is completley constructed, and so fragile. thats a part of that biggest myth. Reason as the construct is not strong. Its not “reasonable” at all.  I think it would be beneficial to reexamine the myths of the past to try and understand them better. And approach them from a perspective that they might actually teach us something about ourselves.  If our reason continues to be so fragile that it returns to myth repeadetly perpetually. Maybe we should actually fucking stop and look at this shit.  Its like a bill. Eventually were gonna open one of them and then your mind will be blown and your reality shattered and you’ll be like, damn Toland, you shoulda told me that sooner, and Toland will be like, fuuuuck you, I told u so long ago you piece of shit.  and then the guardian will be like, ... yeeee......

1. Stop telling me what to do, don't tell people what to do. You are weird, doing some weird alien control efforts. 2. I'm not dismissing what you said in that i saw it wasn't okay n so i said so. So I am dismissing it but not as if i didn't see it, i saw it n it is only worth dismissing. 3. Thats not the discussion topic is me n the stuff in my mind or that i don't like that you're trying to boss me around or tell me what to do. That's not the discussion. It was the article n ideas surrounding that. You are gone crazy OBSESSING over ME !!! Oh my god! You are crazy! 4. Replies to Sechel's comment on yourpost. View post Sechel George One thing to note, among others, is that there are no "crazy" people. Insanity, hallucinations and other such terms are merely words used to describe levels of perception or/and comprehension that are beyond the manifested understanding of ignorant people. From a blind man's point of view, "color" could be seen as a "hallucination", if that blind man also happened to be ignorant. Someone who does have visual sight, but chose to be oblivious to other 6th, 7th... or/and any other higher levels of perception, they might claim that anything that doesn't adhere to the 5-sense level of reality perception is "insane". People with schizofrenia, multiple personalities (i'm not talking about mk-ultra, trauma-based mind control, but of actual soul merging or/and soul cohabitation within one body), bipolars (hyperactive auras and faster sifting of emotional energies), empaths and other types of people are not "sick". Quite on the contrary, they manifest a higher level of perception, which anyone can achieve and surpass with but a genuine choice. The issues of being needlessly violent in some cases does not come from these levels of perception, but by the people having them not discerning what's going on. The pills they're given merely sedate them and clog their brain, making their incarnation less likely to naturally make that discernment. The only "mental ilnesses" are ignorance and stupidity. Conventional psychology and psychiatry revolves around these traits, at least with regards to them being wilfully oblivious about higher levels of discernment, energies and such. However, again, any limitations can be easily surpassed with genuine choice. Anyway, love and reason, awareness and comprehension... 2 on TueLikeMore Marla Bobarla I heard some things in my mind about that your comment here is not possible to occur here. I don't totally understand why it could be different from other things that I guess would seem similarly not so expected here. This is a pretty good comment . I heard that it required someone to travel in time to write it. Someone else has a comment here mentioning "draconian." I suppose that's somewhat similar to what you express here. It's not fitting, the practices here, for how people should be treated n what people are. The devil is trying to do some weird stuff to my awareness to as im writing this here. Quite wished that things would be better for people here, not so ignorant or draconian. Sentiments like you're expressing are -- I'm hearing in my mind -- should help, specifically I heard in my mind this thing expressed n someone saying that n i guess being like how a person would be to have this opinion would quite challenge things here as to continue. Thats preferred. Glad you were able to comment, possibly time travel to make a impression or influence for things as they are to discontinue. 23 hrsLikeMore Sechel George Marla Bobarla  The very concept of "impossible" revolves around ignorance. If something is genuinely unlimited, then everything is unlimited, with limits only being figments of perception. Therefore, it's a matter of contextual probability. Also, as a question, in what sense are you "hearing in your mind"? As in "hearing" your own thoughts, manifested a voice that seems to be your own. Or/and something that you perceive as something else? Now, on higher levels of infinity there is no more "us" or "them", but the infinite "we", so to speak... but, anyway, on the level of the incarnation, different entities can interact with others. Sometimes it's a consensual and harmonious interaction, but sometimes it might be an attempt at attack or/and imposition (typically by parasitic entities). Anyway, how do you discern if it's an actual entity other than yourself ("the devil", as per your claim) or/and if it's a side of yourself that you don't like. I mean, there's a difference between people who have actually come across attempts at possession or/and psychic attack, and those who merely use that as an excuse for their indecisiveness. Regardless, no entity or force actually manages to impose upon you, unless you actually let it. With but a genuine choice, any limitation can be surpassed, although that might not be evident from the 5 sence, cerebral perspective of "modern times". Of course, it's more complex than I'd explain over a facebook comment. Also, yes, genuine thought and intuition are some of the things that can easily break down the current paradigm. Ignorance is easily surpassed with genuine intelligence. Anyway, we always time travel and dimensional, and beyond dimensional travel. The brain and other levels of the incarnate mind, in its current state for most people, does not yet actually remember that vividly enough to break the mental prison. When they do remember it with a bit of vividness, that memory manifests as a "dream" that a person remembers after waking up. Of course, this amnesia can be bypassed with other levels of awareness that are beyond "memory". Anyway, the more vivid those memories become, the less they seem like "dreams", and the more they appear like actual memories of things one has experienced. We become aware of other lives, other versions of ourselves, as well as the infinity of everything. That everything is everything and everything else... Anyway, again... love and reason, awareness and comprehension... 17 hrsLikeMore Kristopher Robert Daniel Simon I get what you mean and I agree actually! Though I'm in college majoring in psychology right now, I tend not to like how people's personality issues are considered a form of illness. Even the term intellectual disability which is now applied to individuals leaving with autism such as myself, seems kind of insulting to higher functioning people with autism along with people with other forms of "Intellectual Disability". :) 17 hrsLikeMore Sechel George Kristopher Robert Daniel Simon  From what I've seen, it seems that "sciences" such as psychology and psychiatry (not to be confused with neurology) are merely tools of manipulation that are meant to covertly impose particular behaviour patterns on people, so that they'll be more susceptible to manipulation and control. Whether or not people find something "insulting" or not, that's a perception. However, them calling something "intellectually disabled" merely because it's different, is like someone calling you "stupid" merely because they either don't understand or/and don't like or agree with what you're saying. Kind of shows that they're likely the ones more fit for the description of "cognitively impaired". Anyway, there are genuinely intelligent psychologists and psychiatrists out there who've not fallen for the medicinal propaganda (I don't claim that anatomy and actually beneficial medicine themselves are propaganda, but that the facade of "health" has been and is still used as a means of promoting illness for pharma profit and other goals). You can typically discern these genuine doctors by looking for a number of things, including whether or not they have an actual interest in getting to know you as a person, instead of actually "cataloguing" you as per the doctrine. Also, they'll usually be interested in helping you solve the issues that are actual issues, and typically pointing out the things that aren't actually problems. Anyway, it's quite likely that no amount of "external" factors (pills, treatments etc) are going to solve issues of the self. Anyway, again, everything is but a choice... love and reason, awareness and comprehension... among other things.... 17 hrsLikeMore Marla Bobarla I think the devil infiltrated your comments so that you supposedly support some medical professional's help, etc for so called mental illness. "Thats not good youre pointing that out. ill have to go now," the devil said in my mind.  I am attacked here n have been attacked here by the society for saying it's not real here n that it's really ruled by the devil. There is homelessness n bad housing. Right now the devil is attacking me w the sound of snoring from the neighbor in some bad housing. I am not w much money here.  Psychiatrists n medical professionals are who are seen as who should be well paid. This society worships inequality as the truth, that some should be very poor n struggle to be able to live. This is extremely barbaric n sick. It is a sick n bigoted society. It is dangerous here for the lack of concern of people's well being, the belief that people should be homeless if they don't have money. This reality is secretly ruled by the devil . It's very sick n disgusting here, pretended to be normal much like in previous eras of extreme n unbelievable inhumanity centered around supposed belief in inequality. 10 hrsLikeMore Marla Bobarla I disagree w the things that are supposed to be your views in the other comment w my name mentioned. The devil infiltrated the comment again . People should be free to have their own perception of things n not have a society waiting to deem they are less than to someone else for not believing as would fit for it to be very narrow n sick n disgusting as the present days society is i the USn. 10 hrsLikeMore Marla Bobarla "in the US" is intended there. I try not to hide the attempts by the devil to mess up the text. 10 hrsLikeMore Marla Bobarla But I don't believe at all in the concept of mental illness. It's an opinion to say a person is crazy. Opinions do matter, they are very important n can clarify possibly a way to see a thing, someone telling what they think about something happening makes it clearer what is happening than if told objectively or just flatly the details as im aware of . The devil is messing w my thoughts so I'd forget another thing i was going to say. But I was going to say people aren't able to occur as human or humane here often at all, so the views n opinions are not so useful as if they are humane n really by a human n really for human beings to be okay n figure things out. I'd say it's quite human for a person to observe it's not normal here, that some, all or many people could be not considered human here, could be considered "lizard people." "I can't have that as okay , so I'd have to go," the devil said in my mind referring to people being okay to say there are lizard people here n some are lizard people here. Donald Trump did tell me in my mind the day before I found this article that he was newly found by himself to be a reptilian here. This is A false reality, people are manipulated to make it so they are not able to be themselves here. 10 hrsLikeMore Sechel George Marla Bobarla  Why did you get the impression that I was supporting any conventional medical faculty, when it came to things related to so-called "mental illnesses"? As I said, there are no mental illnesses beside ignorance and stupidity. DIfferent perceptions are different perceptions, and everyone is free to have whatever perceptions they want, so long as they do not impose their views. If they want to debate or/and call out other perceptions for being in whatever way, that's another thing. Also, I doubt this world is ruled by any one particular entity. Why? Because in order for something to rule, it needs something else to obey it's commands. The world is this way because of ignorance and compacency. No one rules if no one obeys. With regards to the voices you mention - assuming they're actual entities and not different facets of your incarnate self - I'd advise you to not let yourself swayed by them, nor by anything else for that matter. The way you describe them, it seems they are manipulative. Do some soul searching and make your own choices. Try to converse with them, question what they say and have an actual debate. Stand up tall and be independent. It's but a choice. 3 hrsLikeMore Marla Bobarla I didn't ask your advice about the things I heard. I do tell them because I try to tell some things happening. I have not submitted them for your advice or anything. I have a concept of what's happening, i don't wish your trying to tell me what to do about it or what to think. "People" (or those appearing to be people) would disagree about things, i guess, like about there being an entity like the devil ruling the world presently. I thought to tell a few things I heard etc about your comment. I guess I don't have to put anything there, i guess. I try to tell a lot of things that are from my perspective to I guess shape what would be any figuring on what all is happening. Some stuff gets said to start to question there being anything (by me) said at all. It's not discussion happening really. It's a very weird thing, people try to dictate other people's lives n what theyre saying, that's not what I wish to participate in or rather be subjected to. It's very weird. Definitely a conspiracy, it's very weird, it's like aliens trying to brainwash or control or something, just having some other motive. 3 hrsLikeMore Sechel George I'm not trying to impose upon you. There's a difference between advising people and suggesting something through conversation, and actually forcing or/and coercing them to do something. In other words, I'm saying: "Here is some information. View it however you might, if you want to." Even if someone tries to impose upon us, it's entirely out choice how we respond to that. If I express my thoughts to you, you're free to interpret them however you want. As am I, as is everyone else. However, it seems to me like you're being aggressively dismissive about what anyone else says, aside from the perceived voices. It seems like you're against being imposed upon, which I appreciate, but at the same time you appear to be paying heed only to your or/and the voices' point of view. So, I think it would help if you'd try to expand your awareness. 2 hrsLikeMore Marla Bobarla You keep telling me what im doing. im not dismissing what you said -- but not.

So I am dismissing it but not as if i didn't see it, i saw it n it is only worth dismissing. 21 minsLikeMore Sechel George I'm expressing my thoughts about what I think you're doing. Be they accurate or not, that's another thing. Can you make the difference between "Do this because I said so!" and "Hey, I think this is what you'd be better off doing, but it's your choice whether or not you do."? Bossing people around means trying to force someone to do something. Advising people means having a conversation with them, expressing thoughts freely and having both participants make their own choices. On the other hand, you appear to be the one trying to tell people (or at least me) what to tell and not tell you. Even if I were to try and demand things of you for egotistical reasons (which would be my own ineptitude, if I did that), it would still not be an imposition unless I were to actually force or coerce you to do it. Even then, it would still be your choice how you respond to that. As is mine to respond how I want. If you don't want my advice, no problem. You're free to not take any of it into account. I will, however, still express my thoughts on the matter because it is my freedom to express myself how I want. It is also your freedom to call me "weird", "not okay", "piece of shit" or/and whatever other thing you want. I will not be affected by it. Nor should you let yourself negatively by what I or anyone else would say about you, however accurate/inaccurate it might be. Look at the information, take it however you might. So, here are some of my thoughts on what I currently discern about you from what you've posted thus far, at least in reply to my comments: 1) You tend to dismiss things with which either you or/and the voices you mention don't agree, without actually looking at the information. Okay, maybe you "looked", but apparently only in-so-far that you didn't like what the surface elements seemed to you. In other words, you looked at a book and dismissed it merely because you didn't like the cover.That is called ignorance. 2) You did not seem to make the connection that I am against the control system and its branches, including psychology and psychiatry - which are used as a means of behavioural manipulation. 3) You appear easily offended and perhaps also passive aggressive, to a point. 4) You don't seem to be open to actual conversation. The moment you disagreed with me (which you are free to do, btw), you didn't follow up with arguments to support your own claims, and instead replied in a tantrum-like manner without actually looking at the content of what was being said. "Don't tell me what to do! You don't know me! What you say is shit, just because!" type of comments. Do you, yourself, know who you are? That's a question that you might want to ask yourself. 5) Among other things... Anyway, I probably won't be replying to you unless an actual conversation will start to form. Either way, I've no ill will against you, nor against anyone. That said, I do not seek to impose upon anyone. Likewise, I have not / do not / and will not let anyone impose upon me. Actual discussions, free conversation, meaningful and thoughtful information sharing and other similar concepts are some of the cures for control and abuse.

I heard the person was to be a reptilian now, i heard that in my mind a couple days ago. I thought i should add that to this to this post, that i had something happen that seemed to relate to this being mentioned. It would be quite awesome if there could be things like people pooling some views, etc. There are different theories for stuff happening here n they are useful, I'm talking about people referring to the government figures as bloodline vampires , people talk about reptillians, other things. Something is trying to strain my thought. But the different theories help make sense of stuff happening . It could be considered like myths to explain stuff that's happening , but I'm definitely not trying to discredit them actually being revealed to be literal here. They could be revealed to be literally true, any of them, the reptillian theory could, or I guess others. It's very interesting . I do hear at times that some people here would be monsters. I heard that about police n also government figures but they are I think a different kind of monster or would be. 8. https://www.bing.com/images/search?view=detailV2&ccid=wobzX9fc&id=EA3F3DDDAE72BCE0A99BC7AF0846A519A6EB65F2&thid=OIP.wobzX9fcFQFa7tZeGcKGNQDGEs&q=body+snatcher&simid=608002001927015639&selectedIndex=35&ajaxhist=0 9. https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=378613779229771&id=100012434566027 10. http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-3tviBGcTZTY/Uc85JMchCYI/AAAAAAAAggM/sMrhMAjJs9c/s1600/Invasion+of+the+Body+Snatchers+1978+poster+2.jpg 11.

The concept of ancient human archetypes that manifest themselves as sub personalities in each of us that we can identify as a symbol -- a person, a situation, an object -- from our own lives and then name and characterise them and interact with them inside our own minds is a fascinating concept to me, and it is even more fascinating when I catch myself doing exactly that unconsciously.

I have a friend -- lets call him sloth. sloth has this terrible tendency -- and im not sure where it comes from -- to challenge and reject anything and everything that is even slightly conflicting his own often erroneous assumptions and understandings of the world. he is terribly misinformed and has a very narrow worldview and if anything doesn’t fall under that model, he will challenge it, and not be willing to adapt -- no questions asked. I once had an argument with him which lasted 4 days, and it could’ve been solved with just a simple google search if it had been with literally anyone else. he rejected every fact to make the point. im not sure where this tendency comes from, it might be a defense mechanism on his part to combat the fear that his worldmap is incorrect or inadequate -- the irrational defense of your value system for the fear that you might collapse into chaos -- coupled with his 8ness and forthright personality. it might even be motivated by his shame of being wrong -- his crushing super ego will crush his ego if his ego suggest that maybe, just maybe, he is wrong. it shames him with unconscious shame and guilt, and so his defense is to challenge everything. he seems to show no shame normally, so maybe he has repressed all those tendencies and this is how it manifests itself. it might even be a manifestation of his anger at others, at himself, that his map of the world is not correct.

//explore when it is that he does listen -- what impresses him enough to change his mind? this pattern can help guide what is is that makes him budge, and then in turn show us what exactly it is that is stopping him.

anyway, so thats his personality.

now, whenever i am playing around with any concept or opinion in my head, and i am testing its limits and realising how best to explain it and articulate it, i often imagine myself doing various things -- unconsciously -- and speaking at various forums to reverse engineer and discover and formulate my opinion from the imagination of a conversation. while brainstorming about this app concept im designing, for instance, one day i imagined myself sitting and being interviewed by Joe Rogan on the Joe Rogan Podcast, and in doing so I recognised what it is exactly that i want to be able to say that my app achieves, and in doing so I could form a stronger and clearer perception of how to think about the entire experience. similarly, many times I used to imagine myself giving a speech as a lecturer in a college class, and in doing so I would formulate and organise my knowledge. i have imagined myself giving speeches: as a being a dictator, being a president, as a business magnate, as a social media influencer. I have imagined myself giving eulogies about people to articulate what it is that I appreciate about them. I have imagined myself talking to my son to realise what it is that I have repressed myself as a son and what it is that i need to explore and integrate into my own personality. these are the perks of being human -- we can place ourselves in fantasy and see how it plays out. we can think with out minds and not our bodies so that our thoughts can die instead of us.

the thing about this is -- most of it is always unconscious. today i was thinking about some academic concept that is pretty contentious but something i seem to be making more and more sense out of every time i think about it, and i didn’t even realise it at first but i had actually started imagining myself having an argument with my friend sloth in order to formulate and clarify what it is that i understood about this concept. the second i realised that it was sloth who I was having a conversation with in my head, I knew it was archetypal psychology at play. He symbolises plain annoying and futile argument to me and i myself access his persona to help myself very often.

Stop telling me what to do, don't tell people what to do. You are weird, doing some weird alien control efforts. I'm not dismissing what you said in that i saw it wasn't okay n so i said so. So I am dismissing it but not as if i didn't see it, i saw it n it is only worth dismissing. Thats not the discussion topic is me n the stuff in my mind or that i don't like that you're trying to boss me around or tell me what to do. That's not the discussion. It was the article n ideas surrounding that. You are gone crazy OBSESSING over ME !!! Oh my god! You are crazy! Replies to Sechel's comment on yourpost. View post Sechel George One thing to note, among others, is that there are no "crazy" people. Insanity, hallucinations and other such terms are merely words used to describe levels of perception or/and comprehension that are beyond the manifested understanding of ignorant people. From a blind man's point of view, "color" could be seen as a "hallucination", if that blind man also happened to be ignorant. Someone who does have visual sight, but chose to be oblivious to other 6th, 7th... or/and any other higher levels of perception, they might claim that anything that doesn't adhere to the 5-sense level of reality perception is "insane". People with schizofrenia, multiple personalities (i'm not talking about mk-ultra, trauma-based mind control, but of actual soul merging or/and soul cohabitation within one body), bipolars (hyperactive auras and faster sifting of emotional energies), empaths and other types of people are not "sick". Quite on the contrary, they manifest a higher level of perception, which anyone can achieve and surpass with but a genuine choice. The issues of being needlessly violent in some cases does not come from these levels of perception, but by the people having them not discerning what's going on. The pills they're given merely sedate them and clog their brain, making their incarnation less likely to naturally make that discernment. The only "mental ilnesses" are ignorance and stupidity. Conventional psychology and psychiatry revolves around these traits, at least with regards to them being wilfully oblivious about higher levels of discernment, energies and such. However, again, any limitations can be easily surpassed with genuine choice. Anyway, love and reason, awareness and comprehension... 2 on TueLikeMore Marla Bobarla I heard some things in my mind about that your comment here is not possible to occur here. I don't totally understand why it could be different from other things that I guess would seem similarly not so expected here. This is a pretty good comment . I heard that it required someone to travel in time to write it. Someone else has a comment here mentioning "draconian." I suppose that's somewhat similar to what you express here. It's not fitting, the practices here, for how people should be treated n what people are. The devil is trying to do some weird stuff to my awareness to as im writing this here. Quite wished that things would be better for people here, not so ignorant or draconian. Sentiments like you're expressing are -- I'm hearing in my mind -- should help, specifically I heard in my mind this thing expressed n someone saying that n i guess being like how a person would be to have this opinion would quite challenge things here as to continue. Thats preferred. Glad you were able to comment, possibly time travel to make a impression or influence for things as they are to discontinue. 23 hrsLikeMore Sechel George Marla Bobarla  The very concept of "impossible" revolves around ignorance. If something is genuinely unlimited, then everything is unlimited, with limits only being figments of perception. Therefore, it's a matter of contextual probability. Also, as a question, in what sense are you "hearing in your mind"? As in "hearing" your own thoughts, manifested a voice that seems to be your own. Or/and something that you perceive as something else? Now, on higher levels of infinity there is no more "us" or "them", but the infinite "we", so to speak... but, anyway, on the level of the incarnation, different entities can interact with others. Sometimes it's a consensual and harmonious interaction, but sometimes it might be an attempt at attack or/and imposition (typically by parasitic entities). Anyway, how do you discern if it's an actual entity other than yourself ("the devil", as per your claim) or/and if it's a side of yourself that you don't like. I mean, there's a difference between people who have actually come across attempts at possession or/and psychic attack, and those who merely use that as an excuse for their indecisiveness. Regardless, no entity or force actually manages to impose upon you, unless you actually let it. With but a genuine choice, any limitation can be surpassed, although that might not be evident from the 5 sence, cerebral perspective of "modern times". Of course, it's more complex than I'd explain over a facebook comment. Also, yes, genuine thought and intuition are some of the things that can easily break down the current paradigm. Ignorance is easily surpassed with genuine intelligence. Anyway, we always time travel and dimensional, and beyond dimensional travel. The brain and other levels of the incarnate mind, in its current state for most people, does not yet actually remember that vividly enough to break the mental prison. When they do remember it with a bit of vividness, that memory manifests as a "dream" that a person remembers after waking up. Of course, this amnesia can be bypassed with other levels of awareness that are beyond "memory". Anyway, the more vivid those memories become, the less they seem like "dreams", and the more they appear like actual memories of things one has experienced. We become aware of other lives, other versions of ourselves, as well as the infinity of everything. That everything is everything and everything else... Anyway, again... love and reason, awareness and comprehension... 17 hrsLikeMore Kristopher Robert Daniel Simon I get what you mean and I agree actually! Though I'm in college majoring in psychology right now, I tend not to like how people's personality issues are considered a form of illness. Even the term intellectual disability which is now applied to individuals leaving with autism such as myself, seems kind of insulting to higher functioning people with autism along with people with other forms of "Intellectual Disability". :) 17 hrsLikeMore Sechel George Kristopher Robert Daniel Simon  From what I've seen, it seems that "sciences" such as psychology and psychiatry (not to be confused with neurology) are merely tools of manipulation that are meant to covertly impose particular behaviour patterns on people, so that they'll be more susceptible to manipulation and control. Whether or not people find something "insulting" or not, that's a perception. However, them calling something "intellectually disabled" merely because it's different, is like someone calling you "stupid" merely because they either don't understand or/and don't like or agree with what you're saying. Kind of shows that they're likely the ones more fit for the description of "cognitively impaired". Anyway, there are genuinely intelligent psychologists and psychiatrists out there who've not fallen for the medicinal propaganda (I don't claim that anatomy and actually beneficial medicine themselves are propaganda, but that the facade of "health" has been and is still used as a means of promoting illness for pharma profit and other goals). You can typically discern these genuine doctors by looking for a number of things, including whether or not they have an actual interest in getting to know you as a person, instead of actually "cataloguing" you as per the doctrine. Also, they'll usually be interested in helping you solve the issues that are actual issues, and typically pointing out the things that aren't actually problems. Anyway, it's quite likely that no amount of "external" factors (pills, treatments etc) are going to solve issues of the self. Anyway, again, everything is but a choice... love and reason, awareness and comprehension... among other things.... 17 hrsLikeMore Marla Bobarla I think the devil infiltrated your comments so that you supposedly support some medical professional's help, etc for so called mental illness. "Thats not good youre pointing that out. ill have to go now," the devil said in my mind.  I am attacked here n have been attacked here by the society for saying it's not real here n that it's really ruled by the devil. There is homelessness n bad housing. Right now the devil is attacking me w the sound of snoring from the neighbor in some bad housing. I am not w much money here.  Psychiatrists n medical professionals are who are seen as who should be well paid. This society worships inequality as the truth, that some should be very poor n struggle to be able to live. This is extremely barbaric n sick. It is a sick n bigoted society. It is dangerous here for the lack of concern of people's well being, the belief that people should be homeless if they don't have money. This reality is secretly ruled by the devil . It's very sick n disgusting here, pretended to be normal much like in previous eras of extreme n unbelievable inhumanity centered around supposed belief in inequality. 10 hrsLikeMore Marla Bobarla I disagree w the things that are supposed to be your views in the other comment w my name mentioned. The devil infiltrated the comment again . People should be free to have their own perception of things n not have a society waiting to deem they are less than to someone else for not believing as would fit for it to be very narrow n sick n disgusting as the present days society is i the USn. 10 hrsLikeMore Marla Bobarla "in the US" is intended there. I try not to hide the attempts by the devil to mess up the text. 10 hrsLikeMore Marla Bobarla But I don't believe at all in the concept of mental illness. It's an opinion to say a person is crazy. Opinions do matter, they are very important n can clarify possibly a way to see a thing, someone telling what they think about something happening makes it clearer what is happening than if told objectively or just flatly the details as im aware of . The devil is messing w my thoughts so I'd forget another thing i was going to say. But I was going to say people aren't able to occur as human or humane here often at all, so the views n opinions are not so useful as if they are humane n really by a human n really for human beings to be okay n figure things out. I'd say it's quite human for a person to observe it's not normal here, that some, all or many people could be not considered human here, could be considered "lizard people." "I can't have that as okay , so I'd have to go," the devil said in my mind referring to people being okay to say there are lizard people here n some are lizard people here. Donald Trump did tell me in my mind the day before I found this article that he was newly found by himself to be a reptilian here. This is A false reality, people are manipulated to make it so they are not able to be themselves here. 10 hrsLikeMore Sechel George Marla Bobarla  Why did you get the impression that I was supporting any conventional medical faculty, when it came to things related to so-called "mental illnesses"? As I said, there are no mental illnesses beside ignorance and stupidity. DIfferent perceptions are different perceptions, and everyone is free to have whatever perceptions they want, so long as they do not impose their views. If they want to debate or/and call out other perceptions for being in whatever way, that's another thing. Also, I doubt this world is ruled by any one particular entity. Why? Because in order for something to rule, it needs something else to obey it's commands. The world is this way because of ignorance and compacency. No one rules if no one obeys. With regards to the voices you mention - assuming they're actual entities and not different facets of your incarnate self - I'd advise you to not let yourself swayed by them, nor by anything else for that matter. The way you describe them, it seems they are manipulative. Do some soul searching and make your own choices. Try to converse with them, question what they say and have an actual debate. Stand up tall and be independent. It's but a choice. 3 hrsLikeMore Marla Bobarla I didn't ask your advice about the things I heard. I do tell them because I try to tell some things happening. I have not submitted them for your advice or anything. I have a concept of what's happening, i don't wish your trying to tell me what to do about it or what to think. "People" (or those appearing to be people) would disagree about things, i guess, like about there being an entity like the devil ruling the world presently. I thought to tell a few things I heard etc about your comment. I guess I don't have to put anything there, i guess. I try to tell a lot of things that are from my perspective to I guess shape what would be any figuring on what all is happening. Some stuff gets said to start to question there being anything (by me) said at all. It's not discussion happening really. It's a very weird thing, people try to dictate other people's lives n what theyre saying, that's not what I wish to participate in or rather be subjected to. It's very weird. Definitely a conspiracy, it's very weird, it's like aliens trying to brainwash or control or something, just having some other motive. 3 hrsLikeMore Sechel George I'm not trying to impose upon you. There's a difference between advising people and suggesting something through conversation, and actually forcing or/and coercing them to do something. In other words, I'm saying: "Here is some information. View it however you might, if you want to." Even if someone tries to impose upon us, it's entirely out choice how we respond to that. If I express my thoughts to you, you're free to interpret them however you want. As am I, as is everyone else. However, it seems to me like you're being aggressively dismissive about what anyone else says, aside from the perceived voices. It seems like you're against being imposed upon, which I appreciate, but at the same time you appear to be paying heed only to your or/and the voices' point of view. So, I think it would help if you'd try to expand your awareness. 2 hrsLikeMore Marla Bobarla You keep telling me what im doing. im not dismissing what you said -- but not.

Be they accurate or not, that's another thing. Can you make the difference between "Do this because I said so!" and "Hey, I think this is what you'd be better off doing, but it's your choice whether or not you do."? Bossing people around means trying to force someone to do something. Advising people means having a conversation with them, expressing thoughts freely and having both participants make their own choices. On the other hand, you appear to be the one trying to tell people (or at least me) what to tell and not tell you. Even if I were to try and demand things of you for egotistical reasons (which would be my own ineptitude, if I did that), it would still not be an imposition unless I were to actually force or coerce you to do it. Even then, it would still be your choice how you respond to that. As is mine to respond how I want. If you don't want my advice, no problem. You're free to not take any of it into account. I will, however, still express my thoughts on the matter because it is my freedom to express myself how I want. It is also your freedom to call me "weird", "not okay", "piece of shit" or/and whatever other thing you want. I will not be affected by it. Nor should you let yourself negatively by what I or anyone else would say about you, however accurate/inaccurate it might be. Look at the information, take it however you might. So, here are some of my thoughts on what I currently discern about you from what you've posted thus far, at least in reply to my comments: 1) You tend to dismiss things with which either you or/and the voices you mention don't agree, without actually looking at the information. Okay, maybe you "looked", but apparently only in-so-far that you didn't like what the surface elements seemed to you. In other words, you looked at a book and dismissed it merely because you didn't like the cover.That is called ignorance. 2) You did not seem to make the connection that I am against the control system and its branches, including psychology and psychiatry - which are used as a means of behavioural manipulation. 3) You appear easily offended and perhaps also passive aggressive, to a point. 4) You don't seem to be open to actual conversation. The moment you disagreed with me (which you are free to do, btw), you didn't follow up with arguments to support your own claims, and instead replied in a tantrum-like manner without actually looking at the content of what was being said. "Don't tell me what to do! You don't know me! What you say is shit, just because!" type of comments. Do you, yourself, know who you are? That's a question that you might want to ask yourself. 5) Among other things... Anyway, I probably won't be replying to you unless an actual conversation will start to form. Either way, I've no ill will against you, nor against anyone. That said, I do not seek to impose upon anyone. Likewise, I have not / do not / and will not let anyone impose upon me. Actual discussions, free conversation, meaningful and thoughtful information sharing and other similar concepts are some of the cures for control and abuse.

I heard the person was to be a reptilian now, i heard that in my mind a couple days ago. I thought i should add that to this to this post, that i had something happen that seemed to relate to this being mentioned. It would be quite awesome if there could be things like people pooling some views, etc. There are different theories for stuff happening here n they are useful, I'm talking about people referring to the government figures as bloodline vampires , people talk about reptillians, other things. Something is trying to strain my thought. But the different theories help make sense of stuff happening . It could be considered like myths to explain stuff that's happening , but I'm definitely not trying to discredit them actually being revealed to be literal here. They could be revealed to be literally true, any of them, the reptillian theory could, or I guess others. It's very interesting . I do hear at times that some people here would be monsters. I heard that about police n also government figures but they are I think a different kind of monster or would be. https://www.bing.com/images/search?view=detailV2&ccid=wobzX9fc&id=EA3F3DDDAE72BCE0A99BC7AF0846A519A6EB65F2&thid=OIP.wobzX9fcFQFa7tZeGcKGNQDGEs&q=body+snatcher&simid=608002001927015639&selectedIndex=35&ajaxhist=0 https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=378613779229771&id=100012434566027 http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-3tviBGcTZTY/Uc85JMchCYI/AAAAAAAAggM/sMrhMAjJs9c/s1600/Invasion+of+the+Body+Snatchers+1978+poster+2.jpg This not true dufus.
