i goto my color and light class, talk about photons, different types of light. Then i goto Record store with a big 'lights out' poster right by the entrance, then some few records in after digging noticed a 'lights out' vinyl by some random braud, then i goto a chinese restaurant and the power goes out, then i get fortune cookie and it says, "you will lighten someone's heart," then i drive home and i listen to records. |

chick fried rice, question to anyone, specifically Barcode: do you tend to side with the mentality that people who are mentally ill are justly labelled that because they can't cope with the realities of certain situtaions etc., or do you think that mental illness is a negative human creation that gives people in power the ability to marginalize or institutionalize someone, (ignoring the fact that some people actually want a place to escape from life because of stress or disturbance of the mind). basically, do you think people are crazy or do you look at it like people who seem crazy are just normal people who are utilizing more parts of their brain etc? just wondering |

Sounds like you think of mental illness as manifesting within very definite lines.Theres a whole spectrum there ,mate,varying degrees.Or am I reading you all wrong? |

no you're right. I was just reading alot of stuff tonight that had to do with what happened to me today, so apparently this , also shares the name with apophis, which is the greek name for the egyptian god Apep, who is an 'evil demon serpent god' that wants to devour the god Ra and attempts many times but always fails according to the book of the dead. Apophis is also the name of the MR4 the asteroid that was supposed to hit Earth in 2029 or something. So all this shit just kinda makes me get a little uneasy, just feel like i keep digging deeper, and i think it's part of either a mental illness that i have or maybe just an idle mind. I like being sane and level headed, not all tripped out. But i also do like thinking creatively and honestly, if i do notice certain connections to things, its hard to just keep it to myself, i feel like i wanna share it. |

even if it's just coincidence, I do think it's neat when I encounter a recurring theme or idea throughout the day, such as you did today with "light." also I like it when I learn what I think to be a useless fact and then that same day I come across a situation where I know the answer to something because of that "useless" fact I learned earlier... It's feels like "perfect timing" or something, almost like I was meant to learn whatever it was so that I wasn't clueless later on. has that ever happened to you? |

Its part of a healthy questioning mind!It just sounds like your mind is like a sponge soaking up seemingly irrelevant data but its a positive thing surely?To keep ones mind active and alert,thats what we all should strive to do. I read about the most random and disjointed stuff you wouldnt believe it. Sometimes,pulseclock,I wonder if youre seeking validity for the things you do without thinking,like after youve done something,you worry about if it was the right decision.Im not explaining this very well. Do you think theres something wrong with you? |

i tend to refuse the kind of pharmaceutical attitude to outlaw every single human behaviour distant from the so called 'normality' and label it as disease, especially (sorry) in the united states of america where (according to past reads) its quite a common use to feed psyco drugs to the people, especially to the children. Personally, I find interesting that fifty years ago someone has pointed out the kind of attitude described by your link but at the same time, that kind of language suggests that it's something for which you would need to ingest some kind of medication to be described. and being a bastard, that's quite depressing. the industrialized one is not the only way to look at things. you could find countless interpretations of a human behaviour depending on the culture, and whereas the things that make a day worth are quite a subjective matter, at the end, crazy or normal, greek or egyptian, we'll all die. i found an interesting article a while ago that maybe does not match 100% with your issue, but since i believe that one is the scientist of himself you might find some interesting information in it. the post is #02321706 |

yeah i have had that happen to me also, where something will happen throughout the day or previous days, and then some situation presents itself, either some weird issue with people where you think to yourself, i know exactly what to do in this situation because of this strange self-discovered event. And then it feels like a chapter in a book just ended haha . I wish i could remember a particular event of that happening tho. |

well honestly sometimes i feel like i have this wierd like control over things, like when i went to a mental clinic one time, i was still frazzled with anxiety and i remember telling this clinic guy that i was afraid that i was gonna end up like a hitler or something crazy like that. Basically i think it's just i have a fear of how my life will turn out and i dont want it to be something destructive or violent or harmful to others, but i felt as a kid i was going to be important for some reason, i told my dad and i remember saying this when i was about 8 or 9. And then there's the times when i'll almost trip out because im almost amazed at myself, or like proud of myself that i have the ideas that i do, or you know, i value the things i do instead of others values, i often times feel that my values are better than others because either they are more pure or down-to-earth, so it makes a person feel pretty different when everyone around you except a group of two or more friends share your interests. |

i'm so happy to hear that there are people like you who don't abide by these corporate schemes who just would rather ship out a bunch of pills than actually take a little less on the paycheck. Atleast most medicine prescribed for mental illness is bogus and a scam. that may be too rebellious of a mentality though, i'll read the link later, thanks. |

Believe it or n ot,I went through the same sort of things as a child.Unfortunately,I cant be much more specific because it would tell people far too much about me and my life thus far.But youre not alone,pulseclock,youre not the only one feeling like this and you wont be the last. Keep reading,questioning and learning,stay in the light,and you'll eventually find the right path. |

rebellious.. towards what? i see no reason to consider another mentality more or less valuable than the one i follow, cos the both of them are concrete and the both of them are ineffable in some way or another. it's a matter of perspective, depending on the way life has treated you. and it's personal, so there is no better. paradoxically, ain't that some kind of 'control' you gain out of freedom, ain't that some kind of thinking that points you to the direction of equality, that makes you lose the attitude of quickly judjing a person, that makes you reason by dint of destroying? it is the same corporate mentality, the one which tends to put you in a ghetto, romantic or depressing that it may be. |

This Apophenia thing just sounds like the disease of a poet, or just a really creative person. Its a beautiful thing. I want to believe that we're all special + important, but that we've just been told that we're not for so long, that we believe it. But then I see some nasty lowlife scumbag who enjoys others misery, or wants to cause it, and right and wrong seem to emerge from the grey as more black and white again. Is it because of their upbringing? Or are they really just a waste of oxygen? Sorry if i'm going off-topic. |
