🚨 THERAPIST STUNNED AFTER SCHIZOPHRENIC PATIENTS ACROSS AMERICA ALL START REPORTING THE EXACT SAME “DELUSIONS” A therapist with years of experience in emergency departments, clinical psychology, and higher education is going viral after revealing something she says completely changed the way she looks at psychosis. According to her, schizophrenic patients from different hospitals, different states, and completely different backgrounds somehow keep repeating the SAME disturbing themes during episodes of psychosis: • FBI surveillance • Radio frequencies controlling them • “Implanted chips” • The same celebrities • Religious awakenings • Claims that “we are God” • And warnings about hidden realms most people can’t see Her main question? How are people with ZERO connection to one another all describing nearly identical experiences? She says she keeps her personal spirituality separate from her clinical work… but admits the pattern became impossible for her to ignore. Now the internet is spiraling over one unsettling possibility: What if psychosis isn’t creating random delusions… but pulling from the same underlying fears, symbols, and archetypes buried deep in the human mind? Some people say it’s mass cultural conditioning. Others think it’s the “collective unconscious.” And some believe it points to something far stranger. Coincidence… mental illness… or does something about this genuinely feel off to you? 📹: TikTok/ayyabate

One of the reasons that both Neoliberals and fascists hate people like Mamdani is because he proves they are all liars who have effectively sold out their constituents to billionaire interests. All of the pain we have been told to endure has been a choice to sate the wealthy
Lazzyyyyyy@em_Lazzy

Mamdani closed a $12B deficit in 132 days, fixed 100K+ potholes, secured millions for gig workers, fined corrupt landlords millions, raised snow workers to $30/hr, and violent crime hit historic lows. THIS IS WHAT A LEADER DOES!!

@MissElyssa92 I get mine through apples when I’m on my no-bean kicks, and in a real pinch I just get the powder supplements for mixing into water because I can brute force my way through one of those a day.

Working with my nutritionist to get more fiber in my diet and it's a nightmare bc i can't eat a lot of whole grain stuff (yay medium wheat allergy), and i refuse to eat the non-wheat things that are huge in fiber (beans, lentils, anything with a remotely questionable texture)

fundamentally the problem with telling any new stories set in the world of harry potter is that jk rowling didn’t notice she set up magic to be an allegory for being part of the ruling class the allure of the original harry potter books is finding out you are secretly a prince, and rich, and being invited to your hidden kingdom where you learn how to exercise your royal power before taking the throne. this is a juvenile fantasy set in a juvenile world; you can’t tell adult stories about adult protagonists in this universe without running up against the fundamental power imbalance between wizards and muggles. muggles can never learn magic - peasants can never simply decide to become ruling class - and wizards get to arbitrarily manipulate their memory whenever they want to maintain their invisible rule, and nobody in the wizarding world sees a problem with this. muggleborns exist but are indoctrinated into wizarding life via boarding school - the ruling class indoctrinating talented outsiders. nonhuman magic is tightly controlled and regulated - the ruling class maintaining its monopoly on power harry potter is a story about the reptilian conspiracy, from the pov of the reptilians. it pretends to be about fighting fascism in the form of voldemort but the way the premise structures wizard-muggle relations (and relations with nonhumans, eg house-elves) is itself almost inherently fascistic
Bennett's Phylactery@extradeadjcb

Both sides are Wizard-supremacist (there aren't really any alternatives, Wizard supremacy unavoidable in practice) The "good guys" basically think of themselves as zookeepers who have made the world a nature preserve & locked themselves in the cages (via an absurdly invasive surveillance apparatus that presumably sounds fine if you're English) The Dark Wizard opinion, I guess, is that there should be overt domination instead of occulted & restrained domination, but they can't go in guns blazing - Muggle tech is at least at parity for mass killing, & they outnumber wizards at least 1000:1 So the real bone of contention is whether Wizards should be a little more active about mind-controlling Muggle leaders & manipulating the Muggle public The Dark Wizards can't really be interested in enslaving the Muggles - for what? They already have flawlessly obedient slaves Presumably their objection is to the Statute of Secrecy itself - they don't want to be continually surveilled & punished to maintain the nature preserve The only other question is whether out-breeding is a problem - but magic ability clearly runs in families & seems to be a massively dominant trait (squibs are a rare family tragedy) So I guess Wizards are just rare because they slaughter each other every 30 years or so in narcissism-of-small-differences wars about exactly how racist to be

@KaylaAncrum I have nine books with versions of Arthurian legends in them, from Bulfinch to Steinbeck and tons in between. I love to pick through them to look for the differences in how various bits are told. It’s honestly really good practice for going into any new retelling.

Possibly the worst thing about doing retellings is that people who are the most passionate about the subject of the source material usually have their own retelling of it outlined in their head, and if you didnt write exactly that, they want you dead. I am not exempt from this.

I spent a week driving around town trying to find anywhere with a selection of lava lamps to choose from. Then when I caved and decided to order online, the actual Lava Lamp company had more selection on Amazon than their own website.
ebonically intelligent papi 🌻@julianakilrose

I be trying real hard not to order things online, like going to multiple stores to find an item and even then questioning whether I really need it But these stores don’t even keep things stocked consistently, and I know it’s probably bc of the market dominance of online orders

@OLJtheCreator No! It just always felt like I was saying the wrong thing and even having the wrong concerns. And this has been multiple therapists with allegedly different approaches. (CBT always ends up feeling like talk therapy where my wrong answers are more easily quantified.)

@DrSarahAxelrath My neighbor’s OBGYN put her on Zoloft, 2 weeks on 2 weeks off, for PMDD. Needless to say, her PMDD has not improved and her overall well-being has absolutely plummeted.

Until the recent discourse on here, it would never have occurred to me to taper someone off of SSRIs over the course of 2 weeks. But that’s the number that everyone seems upset about. Are there doctors out there doing this? Or is this just an anti-psychiatry talking point?

@foreverimbetter @OLJtheCreator I was told by the medical staff that I needed a pap smear to get birth control. The procedure I then had was very painful. Where was I supposed to gain an understanding that what had happened wasn’t a pap smear?

@foreverimbetter @OLJtheCreator I was 15 when I got the first one, 17 for the second. Because no medical professional thought it was appropriate to sit and tell me what was going to happen, I could only form my expectations based on my experiences. This is the situation many women face in medical settings.

@Strandedlu11aby Sue absolutely has a running list of which order to cannibilize the students. Probably multiple lists based on efficiency in various situations.
