"incarcerated"

medicine: 20 mg. Aripiprazole in the mornings.
diet: three to four meals a day
exercise: walking
weight: 129 lbs.
mood: o.k.
sleep: 8 hours


The mass killer in Norway, Brevik, was declared paranoid schizophrenic.

Of him, John Christian Elden said, "...he will of course be incarcerated."


"And if the outcome is criminally sane or insane, that is, first and foremost a psychiatric question. The most important thing in our clients' opinion is that he will not be able to walk the streets."


What is interesting to me, here (as one who was formerly declared "paranoid schizophrenic", then, c/"schizophrenia", then, "schizoaffective") is that the word "incarcerated" and the words "will not be able to walk the streets" are used to describe the outcome for one called "paranoid schizophrenic", "schizophrenic", "schizoaffective", "bipolar", and "depressed".


Obvious, I know, that Brevik deserves to be incarcerated and not able to walk the streets.


Many, however, like me, are incarcerated and not allowed to walk the streets when they are not a danger to others or themselves.

It is for those people that I write this blog.

decaf coffee could cause a heart risk

medicine: 20 mg. Aripiprazole in the mornings.
diet: three to four meals a day
exercise: walking
weight: 135 lbs.
mood: o.k.
sleep: 8 hours

In a USSA study involving almost two hundred people, decaf coffee is seen to probably cause an increase in bad cholesterol.  An increase in bad cholesterol can lead to heart disease and diabetes.

Images capture moment brain goes unconscious

medicine: 20 mg. Aripiprazole in the mornings.
diet: three to four meals a day
exercise: walking, dancing
weight: 129 lbs. (published 12-26-11)
mood: o.k.
sleep: 8 hours


A new imaging technique monitors the brain as it slips into unconsciousness.

This new technique "could ultimately help doctors pinpoint damage in the brains of people suffering from stroke and head injury."

"For the first time researchers have monitored the brain as it slips into unconsciousness."

the brain dealing with memory of traumatic events

medicine: 20 mg. Aripiprazole in the mornings.
diet: three to four meals a day
exercise: walking, dancing
weight: 129 lbs. (published 12-26-11)
mood: o.k.
sleep: 8 hours

"Most people have to deal with traumatic events at some point in their lives, and, for some, these can produce post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), leaving them emotionally disturbed long after the event itself."


Consultant clinical psychologist Dr Roderick Orner said, "In cases of more severe trauma, it may be just too difficult for the patient to process it during sleep, especially if the event has had a significant impact on that person's day to day life."

teeth

medicine: 20 mg. Aripiprazole in the mornings.
diet: three to four meals a day
exercise: walking
weight: 135 lbs.
mood: o.k.
sleep: 8 hours

Since I have been on prescription pills and injections (needles), my teeth have been destroyed.  Since I have been on prescription pills and injections (needles), my teeth have been destroyed.

The prescription pills and injections (needles) make anyone tired really, really, really early.  I fell/fall asleep really, really, really early without knowing I would/will fall asleep.

So, I would forget and be unable to brush my teeth.

I would not only forget and be unable to brush my teeth, but I would eat more on prescription pills and injections (needles), especially Olanzapine (Zyprexa), which changes anyone's metabolism.

"Gain 100 lbs with Zyprexa!"

GAIN 100 LBS. WITH ZYPREXA!

In 2000-2001, i was forced to go on ZYPREXA, in USSA. It was completely forced upon me by a doctor from another country. I did not want to take it. The doctor had big drooling dog under desk, when she lied to me that it was only that i was eating too much food, not ZYPREXA. ZYPREXA changed my metabolism sending me from 110 lbs. - 210 lbs.

ZYPREXA : it is a known fact that ZYPREXA has side effects. My personal experience is that it caused me to go from a size 4 (USSA) to a size 16 (USSA). It is very expensive to change clothes sizes to such a big size, physically, emotionally, mentally, financially, and in other ways, as well.

There are size 0 women in USSA who don't have to take ZYPREXA.....I was told by someone who DECIDED the diagnosis given to me, "Your problem is that you were too skinny."

Over one-quarter of Americans take a prescription pill or injection for conditions like anxiety and depression.  "Women are more likely than men to take antipsychotic drugs, according to a new report.  Prescriptions for psychiatric problems in all adults have risen 22% since 2001."  This article shows the "Percent of the Population on Mental Health Medications by Region" in the United States, as well.

Brain Cells' Genetic Make-Up Changes Thousands of Times.

medicine: 20 mg. Aripiprazole in the mornings.
diet: three to four meals a day
exercise: walking, dancing
weight: 132 lbs.

"The genetic make-up of our brain cells changes thousands of times over the course of our lifetimes, according to new research."

from:  DNA gene theories on how the brain works

"The study shows for the first time that brain cells are genetically different to other cells in the body, and are also genetically distinct from each other."

Retrotransposons, genes, have been identified by scientists, which cause very small changes "...in the DNA of brain tissue."

Dr. Geoff Faulkner said, ""If we can understand better how these subtle genetic changes occur we could shed light on how brain cells regenerate, how processes like memory formation may have a genetic basis and possibly link the activity of these genes to brain diseases."
