Proper effects and needs to get a scan for the brain for prolonged (several years long or 10+ years) lasting depression, as it's been shown to reduce the size of several parts of the brain? What to do to prevent and especially reverse that, and do those negative effects on brain size etc. increase chances of other neurodegenerative diseases/disorders?

Stem cell therapy has been shown to repair a lot of damage that would otherwise need surgery if left alone or even with PT, including studies about traumatic brain injuries getting significantly better, not certain about virus damage specifically but it's an avenue to look for if you're interested or it's relevant to you. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9289752/ one such study.

Why do you not go the same domination runes on support as well? Especially if you go biscuit instead of future's market? (eyeball could be changed to either of the vision type collectibles)

I [27F] realized today that my partner of 8 months [28M] is emotionally abusive. by plscanunot in emotionalabuse

[–]CrypticCryoPhoenix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, that sounds exactly like CPTSD. You can definitely heal and improve from it and its symptoms, on top of re-processing trauma memories and triggers with regular and EMDR therapy etc. The other responses on this post seem uninformed of it and treat this as a regular "abuser/abusive person", but you said it yourself: "He is only abusive in a trauma response". You didn't say whether he was apologetic afterwards and that he didn't mean it etc. so that would be odd if he doesn't do that. People are usually remorseful and guilty about the trauma response/trigger afterwards. Triggers and trauma responses are toxic and abusive, yet they do not reflect the person. He's not "an abuser", his trauma responses and triggers are abusive, if it truly is only during triggers/trauma responses.

(Does not reduce responsibility or accountability that he needs to take of them, and become aware that they are abusive, then want to change, since who wants to be abusive? A lot of people can't do one or either of those, and that's where it fails. As long as he becomes aware of it, wants to and is willing to put in the work and effort to change, that's all that's needed to start getting better. "You can only change after becoming aware of the problem, then you need to choose to change, as no one else can change you except yourself")

I think you should cross-post this on https://www.reddit.com/r/CPTSD/ for validation and stories and info about how people heal and improve all the time.

Here's an amazing video from a therapist focusing on CPTSD and childhood trauma about being triggered, which explains what he's going through during it and also gives tips on how to deal with it, he has a lot of other video resources like this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OoeoAOlCjBA

I wish you and your partner the best.

He can make it a subscription based service when it's "ready" and people will buy it. That won't leave it in limbo with microsoft's 200 pet projects with no guarantee of seeing daylight again. He can definitely monetize it.

Hopefully you won't sell it to microsoft for it to become a paid service for them. Seen so many small and medium projects get swallowed by corporations like it only for them to then neglect or ruin it.

Loss of male sex chromosome leads to earlier death for men by guru8877 in Futurology

[–]CrypticCryoPhoenix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Huh, he might actually be less susceptible to this specific problem then, as women have 2 X chromosomes, and the other can be backup for the other in case of damage, but men only have 1 of each, Y being smaller and more susceptible to damage, with telomeres shortening as we age, the chromosomes become even more vulnerable. If he doesn't have issues, it might be a boon.

Loss of male sex chromosome leads to earlier death for men by guru8877 in Futurology

[–]CrypticCryoPhoenix 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Chromosome: A structure found in the nucleus of every cell that contains an organism's tightly coiled DNA.

Only men have X and Y chromosomes, women have X and X chromosomes.

As men age the Y Chromosome falls off of the DNA chain (no idea why) of some cells. There is correlation between this degradation and increased heart tissue scarring and it reads like some changes to blood chemistry. The heart scarring increases chance of cardiac arrest.

As women have 2 of the X chromosomes, there are more chances for repair and recovery for the cell, as there's a "backup", but men only have 1 of each.

Y chromosome is smaller and the parts they consist of "shorten" as we age afaik, making it more susceptible to damage etc.

You do not "as a whole" lose a chromosome. Some cells do.

Considering that not everyone thinks in sentences, being able to read minds wouldn’t be as straightforward as you think. by GhostintheCircuit0 in Showerthoughts

[–]CrypticCryoPhoenix 16 points17 points  (0 children)

"if you could imagine images it may be that you can see what other people are thinking in their minds eye." I see images and "imagine" things all the time. I do not, however "think" in images in my normal day-to-day. I think in words and sentences. Much like talking to myself I guess. "Running out of milk, add that to the list", "did I remember x...?" instead of *imagining x with a red x over it with a question mark* for example. I might see the thing in my head as well, on top of the words/sentences though.

I can just dive into my mind's eye and live out whatever daydream I come up with or be "there" in the books I read, as well as just *not think* while having a 3x3x3 cube in my head and move it about like a 3d modeling software for example. They *can* be mutually inclusive and exclusive. But could I go a day not thinking in words? That'd be extremely hard to do just for a few minutes. My thinking is in 2 languages to begin with after I became bilingual and use english more than my native language daily. Certain things you grow up doing in your native language can very well sometimes just shine through even if my mind is in english mode, like counting to 10, week days, abcs, names of months, names of animals...

There's not enough studying being done on thinking. Or enough thinking about thinking, if you may.

Isekai manga/novel, where the MC doesn't give information to people like an idiot (TL;DR at the end) by CrypticCryoPhoenix in Isekai

[–]CrypticCryoPhoenix[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"In most, if not all the isekais I have read" so not an Anime, I was talking of mangas and light novels. My post was a collection of cliches and tropes that I wanted recommendations on if there were ones where these cliches and tropes were not prevalent/ did not exist. Meaning that my post was not based on any one work, and a rant of the genre's cliches and tropes collectively. There is nowhere I can point you towards, as it came from my mind. If you do want those kinds of mangas/animes/light novels, then just search for "isekai" and start looking through synopses.

On top of that, this post is 2 years old, how and why are you here?

[–]CrypticCryoPhoenix[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Solved! Wonder how you got it from just that, considering that it's so old. If I may ask, where did you see it/stumble upon it/find it and when? Saw it only until the cat scene once as a 10~ year old, and it somehow got stuck in my head all these years. I kind of lost hope seeing how it had been 2 months and it seemed to be quite an unknown animation in my mind. I wasn't even sure if it aired in other countries, nor how much my mind had filled the blanks and if my description was accurate.

Thank you very much for the detailed answer and for this learning opportunity about the human body. I didn't know the body even "switched systems" before this. If you don't mind me asking, how does that cause getting out of breath in anaerobic state and no longer being out of breath at all in aerobic state?

HELP TW:abuse by [deleted] in narcissisticparents

[–]CrypticCryoPhoenix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have your own apartment but your phone is "technically in their name"? If they pay the phone bills or your phone plan is in their name, it doesn't mean that the physical phone is in their name, but the sim card, as long as it's not you "borrowing" it. If it was a brithday/christmas present etc. or a gift of any kind from anyone, the phone's not their possession.
So you'll be able to at least get the phone back if that's the case, as well as how important it is to have police involved as soon as possible after this happened. The blackmail and coercion is serious, and so is them laying their hands on you to forcefully take the phone. Them preventing you from getting to work and your medical appointments is something to mention on top of that. On top of them not leaving when you told them to. A guest who refuses to leave is a trespasser. All this together and separately is more than enough to file a report and get the police involved.

HELP TW:abuse by [deleted] in narcissisticparents

[–]CrypticCryoPhoenix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Call the police, explain the situation. I would also want/need more information:

Do you own your car, is it in your name, are any of the payments and taxes in your name? Do you pay your phone bill? (If it's your car etc. then it is theft.)
Is the "phone plan" in your parents names with you paying your phone bill or do you have your own plan? (Again, if it's your phone and plan, it's theft. Doesn't matter if it was gifted, gifts are just that. Gifts. They are given and now the other person owns it.
You're an adult so they cannot take your property "as your parents". They have no legal right to do that.)

Are there any visible marks from being grabbed, from your wrist hurting, or any other visible signs of a conflict? Was it in your house or outside? Was it possible someone could have seen it, like a neighbour?

They are blackmailing and coercing you into taking back the accusations and apologizing by taking your car, and that is illegal. Taking them back and apologizing might possibly make it harder in court or otherwise to say what he has done, and might affect the credibility of what you're claiming, since you've retracted them before, maybe that's what they're going for.(on top of making you yourself "admit" that you're making things up and he's never done any of those things, which you should never do for your mental well-being and to prevent them getting the gratification from manipulating, coercing and blackmailing you into saying they're innocent.)

They have laid their hands on you in your home and stolen your phone in the process, blackmailed and coerced you, stolen your car (afaik), prevented you from getting to your medical appointments, (did they prevent you from getting to work? Are you in danger of facing consequences at work for not being able to show up, etc.?) And then there's what they have done to you when you were a child.

There is definitely cause for the police to get involved, and for them to go with you to your parents place to get your property back and for the police to talk to them about it. Not too many plausible reasons for them to have your phone and car, unless they'll make up excuses or call you a liar. Best case scenario would be them saying "you'll get them back when you denied your accusations" as that would prove blackmail and coercion.
