                <description><![CDATA[ Everything I say seems wrong, is it a stretch to apply that to the deeply held constructs which make up all that I see true?<br /><br />It is something to lack trust in what you see, what you hear, what you sense. It is another, far more serious, far more damning to know the fabric of your mind's thinking is flawed so deeply as to see reason in falsehood.<br /><br />Being wrong, I don't mind - learning from mistakes is part of the human condition, but lacking the capacity to see why what's true is true, that makes the mind invalid.<br /><br /><br />(PS: To all who I watch, I'm sorry for not commenting on your art at all lately, I have little of value to say. Take no comments as a good sign, I have no criticism to offer. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/letters/=p.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":P" title=":P (Lick)" />)<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ ...ness of multiple parties.<br />
<br />
I woke up at 3pm today (why not? - what's so vital about getting up when everyone else does?), opened the curtains ...<br />
<br />
Outside some kid said "Run! Quick, before he comes to eat us!"<br />
<br />
I'm sure they'll grow up to be good little Nazis. The attitudes of their parents are most probably those of ignorance, proud irrational discrimination, and general low-life-ness.<br />
<br />
I need a T-shirt that says something akin to "Yes, I know I'm weird. If that crosses your mind, you have no worth". Perhaps on the other side I could have "Please rid the earth of your infectious plague of an existence".<br />
<br />
I suppose I should be thankful though, at least I don't have to put up with their noisy presence.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ .. from varying causes.<br />
<br />
No, I'm not complaining of the stupidity and ineptitude of others ... this time a stupidity-related thought concerns myself.<br />
<br />
An observation ... I'm becoming more stupid. I suppose it's the natural result of my lifestyle (or lack thereof) ... but isn't intelligence quota supposed to be more or less constant throughout life?<br />
<br />
At 11 years old, I was at the top of all the streaming/setting malarkey. At 17 I was significantly lower in said hierarchy but still considered by others as intelligent and intelligence tests showed I was within the top 5% of people my age.<br />
<br />
Between the latter point and now I suppose there are a few factors that could have influenced my seemed mental retardation:<br />
<br />
Sleep. I have no sleep pattern, and haven't for some time.<br />
<br />
Food. I don't eat (much). I supposed I'd be classed anorexic if it wasn't just lack of motivation.<br />
<br />
Practice. I do absolutely no work of any mathematical merit.<br />
<br />
Pharmaceuticals. Stupidly strong "meds" and by implication stupidly large amounts of stupidly strong "meds"  should be banned. No exceptions. This is by far the main reason, I suspect.<br />
<br />
These damned fans. Can't computer hardware manufacturers just make something powerful without the need for a deafening amount of airflow production?<br />
<br />
<br />
This isn't meant to be self-pitying, I just need to write it down somewhere. I don't really care for the health of the most part of myself, but my brain is who I am, what I am, I am nothing more. What's even more infuriating is that I can't express the resulting maddening void that's eating me from within ...<br />
<br />
<br />
Comments about emocore, the accompanying social movement or stereotype are not welcome.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Just thinking about the way I'm feeling (physically, & well, physically-mentally), I'm about to collapse, as I was last Wednesday. Still got a psychology essay to finish off too.<br />
<br />
I've been thinking of angsty-esque "culture" ... well I wouldn't call it a culture as it's much more than that. It's very, very tempting to be quite frank, I beleive I know the "dead" feeling long time "angsters" escape from now.<br />
<br />
So tempting.<br />
<br />
So, so tempting.<br />
<br />
But then my skin is so ... er ... well not <i>exactly</i> umblemished, though it is unbroken at least.<br />
<br />
<br />
On further thoughts I should get round reading my DA messages sometime.<br />
<br />
<br />
Though really, if I ever get round to it. I've got a feeling I'm close to living out the "will or die trying" mentallity for education right now. Or anything for that matter <_<<br />
<br />
<br />
Is this conciousness or is it a lack of sleep induced void ... ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Edit:<br />
<br />
Yep, I'm going to "go out on a limb" & say my new psychology teacher is an utter ... dimwit. The new "Creasey" legacy (the downfall of my Maths AS). & yes, it can be argued that I'm attributing everything onto one external cause but ... damn it, hand out, hand out, hand out; nonsense, nonsense, nonsense ... I realise normative intelligence is frowned upon these days (and indeed, feared), but c'mon - teachers should have some sort of normative knowledge of what they're teaching!<br />
<br />
& I've wasted all the way up until 4:50am still attributing everything to ... me!<br />
<br />
Damn it argh<br />
<br />
<hr><br />
<br />
<br />
I'm tired. Tired of ... well I'm an insomniac.<br />
<br />
That aside, maintaining my own site by hand has proved a menace without a laptop.<br />
<br />
School's <i>sort</i> of stressful ...<br />
<br />
...<br />
<br />
... or rather stressful to the brink & back again.<br />
<br />
<br />
So much to do, so much to say ... sigh.<br />
<br />
<br />
I really should start blogging more again.<br />
<br />
Resolution commencing:<br />
<br />
I'm currently trying to write a psychology essay with my new psychology teacher. My new psychology teacher is on the shallow side of great, & well ... she relies on hand outs <b>far</b> too much.<br />
<br />
I'm also on the receiving end of a certain "manipulative *****". Sigh.<br />
<br />
<br />
This is in effect a prelude to my previous blog entry, not viewable by those with Internet Explorer (surprise, surprise) <a href="http://www.tenebrarulvl.vispa.com/tene/blog.xml#20050911">here</a>.<br />
<br />
But anyway, venting aside ... well I'm not really depressed anymore. Really. & it's a bloody strange feeling ... though I suppose a physically orientated doctor would summise I was if I was in their presense.<br />
Well, self-plausable deniability I think is a great thing indeed ^_^<br />
<br />
Anyway ... ammendments may commence at any time during the night ... damned insomnia.<br />
<br />
<br />
I was given a prescription of Temazepam by my ever aging psychiatrist (actually he's great, really), but I'm paranoid of taking the stuff. Drugs are bad, kids ... [repeats over, & over, & over, & over] ...<br />
<br />
If you say it enough it might actually kick in!<br />
<br />
<br />
Or make you mad, who knows :/<br />
<br />
<br />
PS do NOT read The Yellow Wallpaper by Gilman. English Lit is a nightmare atm >_<</hr> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So, as Alex & Tim'll know - & any other UK AS/A2 students reading this <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/letters/=p.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":P" title=":P (Lick)" /> - results have come through (2005.08.18). I got DBCBC without Art AS submitted (submitting it next year) & the two Cs would have been As if I'd actually read Emma (got a U in ELIT2) & PH2 (likewise).<br />
So, all being well come January I'll have DBABA. Then come the following year I'll have DBAAAA <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/letters/=p.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":P" title=":P (Lick)" /><br />
<br />
Seriously though, that's enough to apply to anywhere I want. Bangor's my prime choice, I'll put down Cambridge just in case (320 points, though it's all in the interview rather than on the points scale). I'll apply to Aber for international politics incase I feel I can't move in the end (disasters happen). Dunno about the others, Westminster does the course I'm looking for, so does Surry ... I'll apply for Liverpool I think.<br />
<br />
I've got 6 choices overall & I want to get them shipped off ASAP ... so on with the show!.. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Two things really, first of all about 3 days ago I decided on doing what I'd managed to coers my old psychiatrist (don't have one anymore <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/letters/=p.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":P" title=":P (Lick)" />) into letting me avoid - Came off of venlafaxine straight away. I would describe this as temporary lightish schizophrenia (cognitive disintegration, not paranoia :/), though (so long as Wyeth did their research properly) it'll wear off.<br />
<br />
I'm 18 today too. Promised myself a long time ago I'd never be 18. It's at 13:00 +/- 10 minutes. So, if the venlafaxine withdrawal doesn't make me die tonight (who knows? <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/letters/=p.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":P" title=":P (Lick)" />) I'll be 18 by the time I wake up.<br />
<br />
Party tomorrow too! Not my party, someone else from my year/grade is having a party ... just so happens we have the same birthday I suppose. Come to think about it I've been in the same year group for ... 14 years? & I never knew <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/letters/=p.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":P" title=":P (Lick)" /> (well, aside from this last year).<br />
<br />
Haven't opened anything yet, from what I gather it's mostly cheques. But may as well bank 'em in time for drunkness tomorrow night! My record is actually still a smirnoff red bottle, drunk smirnoff blue but never had a whole bottle of the stuff.<br />
<br />
They say antidepressants shouldn't be taken at the same time as alcohol, though I beleive contrary to what might be common sense the increased dopamine & seratonin (basically includes everything up there) <i>stops</i> alcohol from affecting the brain, so I should think I've still got a bit of an immunity (first time I drunk a whole bottle was well before ADs).<br />
<br />
The question is, can I get drunk? It's hardly happened before ... really ... so time will tell <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/letters/=p.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":P" title=":P (Lick)" /> Still got to be very careful though. Last time I had a bottle my gut felt screwed up for 3 days (no, I'm not taking a bottle with me <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/letters/=p.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":P" title=":P (Lick)" />).<br />
<br />
Parrrrty ->>>><br />
<br />
<br />
Oh since I forgot to post this ...  >2 hours later> ... being 18 makes you lots of money <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/o/omg.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":omg:" title="OMG" /> (presents, that is)<br />
<br />
So, after so many brackets, that's it. Until tomorrow <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/letters/=p.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":P" title=":P (Lick)" /> <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Hmmm ... forgot to add this to the last entry ... but (since this is unrelated):<br />
<br />
Had what appears to have been a "gluten trip" last night, when I boiled some instant noodles, 5 minutes after taking the first bite full I was on the floor, my heart had slowed down etc. It was quite frankly, terrifying. Thought I was about to die, or something similar.<br />
Apparently (I'd forgotten all about this), it has an opiate effect, I'll ask my biochemist of a Dad about it next time I speak to him.<br />
<br />
I'd never realised how much that stuff affects me :/ ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Yay, saw him again today. Much better than seing psychiatrists (he actually knows what he's talking about <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/e/evileye.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":evileye:" title="Evil Eye" />)<br />
<br />
I'm to stop being concerned about becoming schizophrenic - it's a bloody psychiatric term. Damn psychiatrists. (autistics in the past have been shut away & labelled schizophrenic).<br />
<br />
So yeah, I'm workin' my way to the top, by myself might I add. This is the information age, whether that term is used anymore or not, knowledge is what's important to gain eco-hierarchy standing.<br />
<br />
Way of the mind, way of the liberal, open source everything! (no, I'll leave the hacking to those people who're willing to sacrifice themselves ... to whatever end they want to).<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ So ... random update here, nothing much to say to be honest.<br />
<br />
Can't be arsed to do much art at the moment 'cause I haven't patched up my home network yet ... Need hardware. Need.<br />
<br />
Randomly drawing, learning, reading, looking at news, singing, playing piano, acoustic ... y'know, all the things you normally do when you're bored.<br />
<br />
Now since I didn't sleep last night I'm about to crash for a couple of hours ... to muse, naturally <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Yeah ... I kinda messed up on that one ... I've just found myself I think. High functioning autistic ... Thank you Leo Kanner. He wasn't "right" but ... well at least he's given people like me a chance.<br />
<br />
I've got to humble up! Heh ... ah well. These things take time. My dad always wanted me to be a good person ... I always wanted to be a good person so ...<br />
<br />
Yeah. I was "ill" from a psychiatric point of view (sad) ... but well ... All I can say is sorry. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I've started on a thesis, one which I hope in vain will turn out to be my legacy. I started to write an introduction a couple of minutes ago - here's what I've got so far:<br />
<br />
<br />
<i>This is what I intend to be my legacy. I do believe it may be possible for me to prove this, but quite frankly, without interrupting fact with feeling, I don't feel it worth it. There are many more experienced, thought out & cognitively able people out there who can & the probability of one doing so within the next 300 000 000 years  even if the human race hasn't developed the ability to escape our solar system by then  is so close to absolute that I see no point in myself doing that task. I do hope that my insight into truth & validity does accelerate the acquisition of this knowledge for other people of course, as is its point. To those who begin to use psychological defense mechanisms at this point or further on, remember the ever so famous quote which I can only paraphrase  genius is so close to insanity that the difference is negligible.<br />
<br />
<br />
There are no 'opinions'; only variations in validity for possible truths & falsehoods. Perhaps, One may think that this is merely paraphrasing the laws of science, though I argue that coming to these conclusions through One's own musing is essential for absolute understanding, one cannot reach a valid conclusion without knowing all relevant variables</i><br />
<br />
<br />
My first chapter or section, whichever you deem more appropriate, is set to be based on evolution, concluding with the resulting damage caused by psychological defense mechanisms - the attempts at applying rationality at the expense of validity.<br />
<br />
<br />
Perhaps my epigraph could be "Illogical people, the plague of the Earth" hahahah ... Anyway. Tell me what you think!! ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Missed the leavers do on Friday ...  bitterly dissapointed to say the least.  Slept through the alarm & up until  20:00. It was because I hadn't taken my  medication for a couple of days I'm  sure ¬_¬ Had a really funny head that  felt like it wanted to white out but at  the same time stay awake.<br />
Went to a friends' 18th birthday pub  crawl last ... well yesterday (now that  its gone 01:00 that is), managed to  find the first pub after a quarter of  an hour walking.<br />
First drink I had someone came back  saying "the barman looked at me  strangely" <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/l/lol.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":lol:" title="LOL" /> I asked for two shots of  vodka initially, then I was asked  whether I wanted that in one glass then  I thought ... they serve vodka in  glassfulls? So that's what I asked for.  But the person who went to the bar (I  didn't have ID on me, nor am I 18 by 3  months) wasn't sold more than 4 shots.  So that's what I had. 4 times. Hahah  the look everyone had when I gulped  each glass down as it came <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/l/lol.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":lol:" title="LOL" />. I asked  whether I could get away with smoking  in there, I got a negative reply but  when I was merry enough I just thought  meh what the hell.<br />
<br />
Managed to get to the second pub, I was  smoking out of a metal pipe obviously  not for tabacco all the way accross  town <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/l/lol.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":lol:" title="LOL" /> When we got to the second place,  someone pointed out there were police  swarming outside ... close shave!<br />
<br />
Third pub we went to was the last,  where I had another glass of vodka  topped up with coke this time. I can  remember all of it mind! I was merry  enough to lose my inhibitions but I was  fully aware of everything.<br />
<br />
So then I'd had over half a litre of  vodka (according to a friend it's about  20 shots per litre). So guess what I  did, when the bus got to my village I  went into the Spar & got another litre  of Vodka!! & yeah I don't remember the  rest of the night. Only I got through  about 1/2 an ounce of skunk that night  too. Oh yeah & I squeezed the birthday  girls' bum too <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /> ]]></description>

<br />
It was just before resuming my art  exam. I missed about 20 minutes because  I couldn't think clearly enough to get  up from the seats in the common room  ...<br />
<br />
<br />
I had about a quarter of this seemingly  nothing lump of skunk (admittedly there  were  loads of THC crystals visible on  it) ... meh nothing was happening ...  but after having a few pipe bowls full,  wow ... not actually happy, I'd had too  much for that ... but it was like I was  concious, then ever second or so that  memory became another conciousness, & I  was concious for every second after  being stoned ... nevermind.<br />
<br />
I got some really far fetched ideas for  art ... although I've done my final  piece now. I'm just using the time to  fill in sketch ideas.<br />
<br />
Anyway, that was fun ... tomorrow, same  time, same place <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I've found out that so long as I get  round to replacing ampersands with  proper "and"s, I'll be getting 23/25.  That's quite a high A. Sooo ... that's  92% of the coursework marks ... & 92% of  40% is 36.8%. So I've already got an E  ... yipee! That should take the  pressure off for both literature exams.<br />
<br />
In psychology yesterday, I asked why my  teacher was being so bitchy (cue class  laughter), then shortly after I asked  where exactly one of the girls had  shagged a certain someone (cue insane  laughter). Apparently it was just  gossip though. We talk more about sex  than psychology!<br />

Makes me question  what love is for, if you just lose the  people you love & gain others ... it  never lasts ... You don't know what  true friendship is until it's too late. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So ... urm after a family feud & another  OD (that's surprising ... cough), &  going to a GP to get more venlafaxine,  I've had my dose increased to a grand  total of 375mg/day. That's the maximum  that they're allowed to give you I  think ... but guess what ... I'm  starting to feel ... like I can laugh,  talk, think about OTHER things than  suicide!!<br />
<br />
So yeah. I think I'm up to 4-5 on the  scale of 0-10, 0 being worst, 10 being  feeling good.<br />
<br />
& my best friend is definately going to  the local Uni! So staying another year  is not a problem with me at all <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /> ]]></description>

<br />
Higher than the sun ... so many  memories. I've been without being a  stoner for 3/4 of a year now ... this  reminds me how I felt, going down to  the arts centre after every lesson  getting stoned out of my mind. Everyone  pittied me but ... I was happy. I'm  dying to go back to that ... but I  don't have the endless supply of money  I used to have ...<br />
<br />
Sigh. I'd cry about it, but the  feelings too strong for that. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ That was fun. I had a fit after falling  down the stairs backwards, head first.<br />
<br />
First I was rigid apparently, then I  started shaking violently. Paramedics  came, put me on one of those neck  support stretchers, off to hospital  with an oxygen mask, completely &  utterly dazed. They kept an eye on me  in A&E constantly until my heart rate &  blood pressure went down (was racing at  around 160bpm). Then came the tragic  news: I had to stay in overnight.<br />
<br />
Waited until 3 o'clock this afternoon  for a CAT scan. No brain abnormalities,  so I have to go down to camarthen for  some sort of brain electrogram (might  be epilepsy).<br />
<br />
<br />
But I'm back now, thank ... someone. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Haven't had a journal entry in 4 days  o_O<br />
<br />
So ... first of all, I want to order  everyone to sign up to <a href="http://isla-de-encarta.net/ipb/">[link]</a> brilliant  forum & radio shows (there might be one  tonight ... hopefully). It's a  community of people local around here  ... & their friends ... & everyone.  Basically. Sign up.<br />
<br />
Secondly, I've updated my template site  a bit, I want to do something with it,  if I find the effort :/<br />
<br />
Seeing my psychiatrist on Wednesday.  Get more venlafaxine methinks. 150mg/d.<br />
<br />
I'm going to the Manchester Apollo on  the 26th to hear Feeder live, their  second gig of their Pushing The Senses  Tour (they have a gig the previous day,  same place). Nowhere near as big a  venue as Earls Court that I went to see  Muse at, but still it should be a nice  experience.<br />
<br />
I think I'll be getting some LSD either  this week or the next, depending on  when the local druggie can get his  hands on some. Strong stuff, £10/tab.<br />
<br />
Insomnia struck again last night, no  surprise it being a monday ...<br />
<br />
Oh & here's my best friend, Sarah <a href="http://www.tenebrarulvl.vispa.com/tene/images/gwiandsarah.png">[link]</a> <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" />  That's her boyfriend on the left.  Aren't they adorable <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/g/giggle.gif" width="17" height="15" alt=":giggle:" title="Giggle" /> heheh.<br />

Anyway. That about sums it up. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ OMG venlafaxine is a MIRACLE CURE<br />
<br />
For the first time in YEARS I feel <b>not  so stressed</b>, <b>not so suicidal</b> and I  don't really have a desire to rip my  arm apart. That's one hell of a placebo  effect unless it really is working this  fast. I didn't even overdose!!<br />
<br />
Ahhh things are brighter than usual  (maybe a photon here and there, you  never know <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/w/wink.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=";)" title=";) (Wink)" /> ). My psychology teacher  wasn't pissed off with me at all for  missing 3 lessons! My English teacher  didn't mind that I'd forgotten I had a  lesson, in fact she was really nice <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /><br />
<br />
HAHAH and I thought I was going to get  kicked out. I had a plan to put on one  last show - upon the words "get out" I  was going to cut an artery, spray the  teacher, wipe blood all over the desk,  take my long sleeved T-Shirt off, write  "stimulus" in blood on the door, walk  down to the railway, put in blood over  my chest "response" and ... ahem ...  Damn that turned out different than I  thought it was going to!!<br />
<br />
PLUS my best friend probably isn't  leaving this town to go to uni, so I'll  get an extra year with her ... and  probably go to the local uni too <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /><br />
<br />
Yeah. I'm not too bad at the moment. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Self induced seratonin syndrome (ie, I  thought too much)<br />
<br />
I beleive I've just reinvented  construct theory. Well, I don't know  exactly what it is, but my set of  aquired biases (ie common sense) tells  me this is it.<br />
<br />
Take the idea of imaginary numbers, a  perfectly, valid, proven method of  solving problems. Every number is a  value, so substitute number for value.  Now, you have a wide variety of values.  Take these examples<br />
<br />
A genius is contained within society<br />
Subjectivity is contained within  objectivity<br />
Science is contained within art<br />
<br />
Combine any two & ... ruin. Lifes filled  with these parallels, relations. These  parallels are explainable by  intermittent terms. Think of terms as  unproven, or proven theories (fact).<br />
Once you prove one theory, you can use  the fact found to find another theory,  thus you can use one parallel to  explain another, whether its proven or  not.<br />
<br />
These parallels = constructs. I beleive  that's what Kelly (1955) thought.<br />
<br />
<br />
Oh yeah, & on my autistic voyage (spaced  outness) I also thought some other  things ... I should write a poem "Verse  of quotations":<br />
Autism: genius wrapped in a shell of  stupidity<br />
Complexity, and individuals creation<br />
Objectivity is a subjective creation<br />
<br />
Whilst something may be true, its  unveiling would mean the corruption of  creation (eg 1/0 != infinity)<br />
<br />
Objectivity & subjectivity intermingled  ... results in corruption (bias) ...<br />
<br />
I wonder if this is the basis of  "parallel dimensions" theory?<br />
<br />
I thought of constructs as loops, ie  everything goes from<br />
Everything, wraps around & comes back as  Nothing (Everything & nothing aren't so  different, both are utterly pointless).  Thinking on it now though ... hmmm ...  If something isn't definate, it isn't  objective, therefore it must be  subjective ... nevermind.<br />
<br />
Oh yeah, & the most important part,  science is a load of meaningless  nonsense, whilst art is the  contextualisation that makes science  make sense <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/w/wink.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=";)" title=";) (Wink)" /><br />
<br />
<br />
Yeah I bet that all sounded like bull.  I feel like I've been tripping :/  Haven't taken anything though! ]]></description>

Took a few  hours, but I'd finished my psychology  essay within reasonable time, I was  only one major piece of work behind  (English coursework draft) ... so all  in all, you know, not too bad.<br />
<br />
So I drifted through the day, by no  means feeling okay, but the best I've  felt in a while. So, last lesson,  psychology, hand in essay ... not long  enough apparently.<br />
<br />
She knows I'm a major/bipolar  depressive <i>and</i> a high functioning  autistic. I think she's on an ego trip,  sorry to drag you out of the cupboard  for a quote Freud, she's trying to get  me to end my life I reckon. I know,  I'll write the essay in blood, 2000  words <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/m/mwahaha.gif" width="29" height="15" alt=":evillaugh:" title="EVIL Laughter!" /> shes asked for it.

                <description><![CDATA[ I felt something today. Within the last  hour, to be precise.<br />
<br />
It's not often I can feel anything, &  it's not supression, either, because I <i> can't</i> feel anything. It used to be the  whole hiding my emotions thing, now I  can't feel them at all, apart from on  exceedingly rare occasions such as  this.<br />
<br />
About the future ... makes me sick.  Thinking ahead of tomorrow, thinking  ahead of now, makes me sick. Thinking  of the year I <i>was</i> in leaving in 3  months or so ... makes me physically  ill. Weak. All that I've cared about  vanishing. Gone.<br />
<br />
Writing this, this has to be the first  time I've shed a tear in months ...<br />
<br />
Who's that song by ... "History's so  Strong" ...<br />

Aimless life. I can't bare it, it  destroys me. ]]></description>

<br />
I've finally confronted my dad &  stepmother, albeit over the phone. Not  going to see them next week.<br />
<br />
They, or rather <i>she</i> really needs the  think, act, argue, & speak logically.  Complete mix of objectivity &  subjectivity ... Ask "why?" to  anything, & they have no answer, they  merely restate their unsupportable  arguments.<br />
<br />
Well, they tried emotional blackmail.  Didn't work obviously, since I care not  for feelings (in the bigger picture,  outside of music & art, that is).<br />
<br />
They just don't get it ... ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ That was rather fun actually. Complete &  utter bollocks but fun nonetheless.<br />
<br />
A fair amount of the session consisted  of me psychoanalysing the psychologist.  He's got some real problems.<br />
<br />
Anyway, turns out his speciality isn't  cognitive behaviour therapy (that's  aimed at retards, apparently), but  personal construct theory. Complete &  utter crap, though as far as I can see,  the aim is to back the subject into a  corner, question them through a  rationality train of thought.  Activation thought, irrational or  irrational beleif, & resulting thought.  Of course by 20 minutes time, I was  using it on the shrink. I do enjoy  battles of wit though. It was pretty  much a standoff, I was answering  rationally, he was answering  rationally. Well, he wasn't answering  rationally but he did a good job at  using offense for defense <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/w/wink.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=";)" title=";) (Wink)" /><br />

Next ... yay. I'm seeing my new shrink  tomorrow, a cognitive behaviourist. My  psychiatrist warned me last Wednesday  that they'll start "taking action" (ie,  attempting some hardcore style  shrinkage). Whatever, I can see what  they're doing before they begin. It's  useless, almost as if the only people  who clinical psychology works for are  retarded. Missing art again for it too  ¬_¬ 11am.<br />
<br />
Heh, might be missing a bollocks  physics practical too. Speaking of  physics practicals, practical teacher  "Mr. Man" (derived from his initials)  is absolutely useless.<br />
<br />
No psychology tomorrow ... Sigh. Oh  well ... I'm a little anxious to be  honest. New shrink & all. ]]></description>

Fucking psychologist addressed a letter  to my parents. Bastard. I told my  psychiatrist to make sure my parents  stayed in COMPLETE ignorance.<br />
<br />
I HATE my parents. In fact I hate most  people. I hate anyone knowing anything  about me. Makes me so uncomfortable &  trapped<br />

<br />
I'm not sure whether I can wait, I  might just have to trip tonight <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /><br />
<br />
Oh and ... all at once <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /><br />
<br />
<br />
Edit:<br />
I can't wait. Can't. Can't can't!!<br />
60g ... to the other side <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /><br />
<br />
Edit #2<br />
Onset ... now<br />
<br />
Edit #3<br />
That was ... spectacular. Beautiful  rainbow strings from the ceiling ...  vortexes ... twisting ... melding with  objects ... melting ...<br />
My bed & chair were swimming in the  carpet. At one point, I was so out of  it that I couldn't move.<br />
<br />
I thought I've ripped my hand off, or  that I'd ripped my eye out at a couple  of times, & my hand was covered in  blood. But then I realised what I'd  read ... the trip is what you make it.  So I thought it away ... and no more  blood <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /><br />
<br />
I put music on most of the time ...  mostly Muse. I was so in tune with the  emotion ... I felt like I was Bellamy  himself at some points <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /> The riffs  slowed down to an eternity of ...  slowness ... then speeded up again ...  in fact, time was at my disposal.<br />
<br />
Kick arse. (60g = 24x the high dose  amount given by erowid.org). ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I've just been participating in some  cognitive activity ...<br />
<br />
Well I've concluded that Autism ==  Intelligence == Depression.<br />
<br />
Bear with me ...<br />
<br />
I'm not referring to biological  depression above, but cognitive  depression. I beleive both to be  inverse.<br />
<br />
<br />
It's widely said that depression is  caused by a lack of transmitter  chemicals between the synapses -  seratonin being the most talked of.<br />
<br />
Autism can be defined as a syndrome in  which there is an excess of seratonin,  look at the high functioning autistics  out there & there amazing abilities (eg  me <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" />)<br />
<br />
I went to the doctors because I had  cognitive depression. Lets think about  this ... The more people realise ...  the more they become depressed,  cognitively speaking. However, you need  a hell of a lot of seratonin to gain  that ultimate "depressed perspective"  knowledge. Hang about, isn't something  odd here?<br />
<br />
It doesn't make sense. I wonder where  those DSM authors got the evidence that  lack of seratonin == depression ...  Depression biologically perhaps, but  not cognitively.<br />
<br />
<br />
Why does alcohol make you feel good,  relaxed and not worry about the future?  It's a _depressant_. Why does continued  LSD usage make you cognitively  depressed? LSD is an extra synapse  chemical that acts very much like  seratonin, therefore you could  associate it with the same effects of a  stimulant.<br />
<br />
=><br />
Stimulants make you less biologically  depressed, though more cognitively  depressed, & depressants vica versa.<br />
<br />
<br />
Now if only I could do a psychiatry  thesis on an infant autistic ... Doest  thou want vodka child? <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/m/mwahaha.gif" width="29" height="15" alt=":mwahaha:" title="Mwahahahahahahaha!" /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Felt like a journal entry.<br />
<br />
Aside from lots of vodka, I did get a  rather nice wardrobe, including a very  suave jacket with a fur hood ... Looks  slightly camp but ... meh. Looks good.<br />
<br />
<br />
Yesterday I found out a friends  boyfriend had split up with her ... The  feeling as she said this to me was  surreal ... I never thought it'd  happen. Probably the saddest moment  I've had for some time <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/f/frown.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":(" title=":( (Sad)" /><br />
<br />
I cleaned up my knife & used it again  today. Damn it felt good.<br />
<br />
<br />
Tomorrow being new years eve ... party  a few miles away. Another chance to get  plastered - though this time in good  company <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /><br />
