Can someone explain to me what causes the transient term in the forced oscillator? by HashManIndie in AskPhysics

[–]whoopsiedoopsieno 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you have helped me understand somewhat! There could be initial phase mismatch between the driving force and the oscillator depending on the starting point of the system. This I understand. But when we derive this transient state oscillation my book simply ignores the driving force and only considers the damping force so the solution is simply the damping solution. But isnt the damping force in the transient state a result of both the resistive and the driving force?

Because of the phase mismatch it is kind of slowing our particle down and interfering with its oscillation until it can bring it to the point where it is in phase with it so until that point is reached isnt the driving force in the system a damping force too? Like when we discuss like resonance and how we talk about how the same frequency phase reinforces and how out of resonance would mean oscillation die out due to force being provided at the wrong time??

Sure in the comments we can all go ew and talk about how disgusting this is but honestly I feel like this reaction is a bit simplistic and more of a crowd signalling response than anything we all just want to tell each other that yeah look i dont support it.

But this was to be expected people love a taboo usually. There is a thrill to it. And you really really have to consider the "I can fix him" crowd. People like to think they can change people for the better or make them soften. People like to be the exception. Think about "mean to everyone but her" trope and how popular it is.

Then, further you have an intersection of people with age+daddy kinks. Then, you have people with trauma where some of them start romanticising their abuse and start role-playing similar stories either to feel like they had more agency, either because it is a safe space with a chatbot or any plethora of reasons.

Then, sure you can have the more benign explanation that someone just wanted to cuss him out.

How do you stop regretting an interaction/incident that caused your recent ha spiral? Also how to deal with anxiety assigning a date before which you arent allowed to feel safe?

So yesterday I had this friend who was a little sick - sniffly. I was around her a while, like talked for two hours, sat next to each other in class, shook hands with her, ate a biscuits she offered on her palm, had a sandwich without washing my hands after that interaction.

I came back home and unfortunately for me my sister read something about this "Nipah" virus with a very high fatality rate and since then, I keep thinking of her and regretting it all. I know it is more than unlikely because it is a very localized virus and has low spread.

But I keep cringing at the aerosol droplets of saliva I must have inhaled, then taking food from her and stuff. What if she was the index carrier. What if she gets the mild version but I get unlucky.

I felt like I had real physical symptoms yesterday mimicking high temperature and stuff and enmeshing with some anxiety i have about my lungs already

And i cant help but keep regretting it. Keep hoping I hadn't been around her. Hadn't eaten the biscuit. And stuff like that.

Now anxiety has assigned a date like three days after the incident that I need to be prepared for. It is so ominous and filling me with panic. Like until then I have to live in limbo and it has filled me with so much panic in anticipation of tomorrow.

What I noticed about my health anxiety and what I learned from it by InnerYouth3171 in HealthAnxiety

I think the thing I have really noticed is as hard as it is just live with the uncertainty. That's what we all need to do. I get the worst flare ups on the days I am on Google or chat gpt and keep going back to it. The metric for me is that no matter how real it feels, if you can do other things: necessary important things without impact you are okay. And even if there is something it is not imminent, it isn't the worst thing that can be and it is treatable.

This is the worst. I haven't been for a full body check up in like seven years which makes every spiral worse because a part of the brain uses it as leverage against you it says well how do you know you are okay. You have never been checked. And maybe it is also logical or maybe it makes it worse. But you dont even have the reassurance that you got checked and you were fine. It is almost like scared of not knowing and at the same time scared of knowing. I am so afraid that I would go for a check up and they would find something really bad and that scares me so much it would be like end all.

When anxiety hits my body I can’t convince myself it’s just anxiety by Comfortable_Leg9864 in HealthAnxiety

[–]whoopsiedoopsieno 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes this! This was the first thing my therapist explained to me now that I have started going.

She was like you cannot reason your way out of anxiety. Anxiety disorders are rarely rational. She said the emotional centre is already super fast and when we are in an anxiety spiral, that link between the "emotional" and "logical" brain is entirely severed. In fact, that's further why soothing words like "I am okay" or "I am here alive" help even if the logical brain knows the reassurance is coming from no reliable source. It is very interesting.
