Suicide and Depression Prevention
Take Action and Make an Action Plan:
By taking action you will feel that you are taking control and in control of the situation. This can also build self-confidence and self-esteem. Think on paper and create an action plan. Go through the following and see how you can include them in your action plan, how you will apply them, and how you think they will help you.
Physical exercise helps with stress, anxiety, and depression:
Physical exercise releases chemicals that can help counter the effects of stress and depression. Short (20 minutes) time efficient and high intensity interval training on a tread mill can help and can also be repeated daily. To be able to repeat this training daily the key is not to over exert yourself in one training session. Keep it short and intense so that you are able to recover quickly. This counters the effects of the stress hormone, releasing chemicals, burning the adrenaline and cortisol, pushing blood to the brain, and returning the body to a relaxed state. You should always warm-up the body and heart before intensive exercise and a cool down is also recommended to help you recover (lactic acid). Long distance runners are familiar with the "runners high" which is brought on by the release of endorphins in the brain.
Laughter is great medicine:
Laughter releases chemicals, endorphins, in your brain that can help with stress and depression and many people advocate laughter therapy. It also lowers the stress hormones and strengthens the immune system. The simple act of smiling releases endorphins.
Smiling and Acceptance (opposite of rejection):
The simple act of smiling releases endorphins in the brain. Both laughter and smiling are contagious. When you smile at someone they usually reciprocate with a smile and this is associated to acceptance and making a connection with someone. It's the opposite of rejection. Smiling also enhances peoples view of you. Some studies show that people who are depressed have weaker smiling muscles and advocate smiling therapy in which the person exercise making the smiling facial expression with eyes wide open and reaps the same benefits as a normal smile. Try this exercise and see what results you get. Make the smiling expression with eyes wide open for a few seconds and then rub or massage your face and head for several seconds for an endorphins fix. Do not do this in front of a mirror if you will view yourself negatively and look for flaws. If you do it in front of a mirror while smiling and rubbing your face, think positive and loving thoughts and see how it affects you.
Get a therapeutic massage:
A therapeutic massage stimulates the skin and is linked to affection. It releases chemicals in your brain, endorphins, and can help with stress, depression, and strengthen your immune system. (massage therapy and touch therapy)
It relaxes muscles, increases blood circulation and lymph flow, and can alleviating pain in migraine sufferers.
Condition your mind positively:
One of the symptoms of depression is that you probably have feelings of hopelessness and despair. Your mind can also be conditioned negatively to always see the negative side of things or expect the worse. The opposite is also true, you can condition your mind to think positively or expect positive outcomes. It’s not easy at first and does require effort but eventually it can change and become almost automatic where you will be thinking positively instead of negatively. You have a lot of imagination so play the positive imagination game. You may have heard these expressions: look on the bright side, put a positive spin on it or spin it positively. (see also Conditioning your mind negatively or positively)
Act Happy (condition your mind happy):
Act the way you want to feel and soon you will feel the way you act. This is common in self confidence building therapies or courses where you are asked to act the part of or like a confident person. You soon develop that skill or behavior which results in the person having more confidence. There is increasing evidence that acting enraged, obsessed, malevolent, or depressed maybe bad for you. Actor Leonard DiCaprio developed obsessive-compulsive disorder while playing Howard Hughes in the block buster The Aviator. This often happens to actors who get "caught up" in the role they play or keep many of the same character traits of the role they played. Heath Ledger who played the Joker in the Batman movie died and was allegedly clinically depressed. If you act having an enraged or angry conversation with someone, you will usually find that your emotions do get engaged even though you are simply acting the part. When you are acting happy, you are thinking happy thoughts that go with the acting role you are playing, so it's like conditioning your mind to be happy. So try acting happy and you can also consider it "acting happy therapy".
Change your negative self talk to a positive self talk:
If your self talk is negative and you are always criticizing or putting yourself down, you should change this self talk to a more positive one. Try seeing errors and mistakes as a learning experience for example. Something that you can use to learn from and improve on. Many people consider life its self as a learning experience.
Visual and Auditory Brain Stimulation (positivity):
You can try listening to classical or new age music while watching your favorite scenic video or using the visualization function on your music player (windows media player, winamp, itunes).
Many studies indicate that classical music stimulates the brain in many positive ways, adding the visualization function of your player, with many different patterns and colors, can also stimulate your brain in positive ways.
Listen to calming or uplifting rhythmical music:There are many positive effects from music and people also advocate that some types of music such as Mozart can also make you smarter by working different regions of the brain. You can also try singing one of your favorite positive and uplifting songs (similar to positive self talk and affirmations).
Get a dose of sun light and bright colors:
Light therapy is becoming more popular for seasonal depression. Light therapy can also strengthen your immune system.
Getting a dose of bright colors from watching a colorful movie or cartoons can also have positive effects on the brain.
Positive Visualization:
Many Professional athletes use positive visualization to practice a perfect performance or outcome in their minds. You can do the same or something similar. Visualize good performances, success, and positive outcomes instead of negative outcomes. Practice recalling positive images of your favorite scenic pictures, using your imagination to visualize a calm ocean and beach for example, positive memories, and positive events or actions such as helping friends or people and successful events such as graduations. How you see yourself, yourself image, is also important. Visualize yourself in a positive way, intelligent, caring, and brave for example, do not dwell on your flaws but improve them.
Use positive affirmations:
Using positive affirmations can change your thinking and subconscious. (similar to positive self talk)
Take steps to build self-esteem (set goals and help others):
Setting goals, taking action, accomplishments, success, and helping others, how you value yourself and self-worth, can be very rewarding and can help you build self-esteem.
When you complete a task or a major task your brain releases endorphins the happy and feel good hormone. You feel happy and your self-esteem usually also goes up too. When you complete a major task, reward yourself to enhance these feelings and to further condition this habit of setting and accomplishing goals.
Take Omega 3:Omega 3's have beneficial effects on the brain and many research articles also claim that it can prevent or help with depression. They are good for the brain, the heart, prevent cancer, and help you lose weight.
Get enough or the required sleep and exercise:
When you are stressed and worried, anxiety, you can suffer from insomnia and insomnia is linked to depression. Sleep deprivation also increases the stress hormone, cortisol, in your body. A person who is sleep deprived brain can look like that of psychotic person's brain in an MRI scan. You can exercise to counteract the effects of stress (Stress Management). Exercise increases blood flow to your brain, counteracts the stress hormones, cortisol and adrenaline, and releases endorphins in your brain, the "feel good and happy hormones". The result is that you will be more calm, relaxed, and sleep better.
Take a hot bath with scented oils:
Taking a hot bath and adding scented oils, Aromatherapy, before bed time also relaxes you and your body and should help you sleep better.
Stay active and preoccupied:Stay active by doing house cleaning for example. By staying preoccupied your brain has less time to dwell on dark or negative thoughts. You'll also feel organized and productive and get the positive effects of this feeling. Tidiness has also been know to reduce stress and improve psychological health.
Socialize and do not Isolate yourself:
Socializing is therapeutic, works the brain, and makes you smarter. It can also preoccupy you and keep you from dwelling on negative thoughts. The positivity of those you socialize with can also rub off on you. Try to participate in activities and social events that contain comedy and laughter.
Sex makes you smarter and can also help with depression:
Sex is linked to affection and pleasure and releases endorphins in the brain. Many studies indicate that it can help with depression and can also make you smarter.
Good nutrition is also very important:
A deficiency in minerals and electrolytes, such as calcium, magnesium, and potassium can affect the brain. Too much calcium in your body can also cause a deficiency in your body of magnesium.
The body uses electrolytes to help regulate nerve and muscle function and to maintain acid-base balance and fluid balance.
SUN BLASTER compact fluorescent full spectrum lighting
Similar to Light Therapy compact fluorescent full spectrum lighting in your garden or flower room may have health benefits or help prevent depression.
(Healthy Light -> Healthy People <- Healthy Plants)
"Grow flowers and herbs indoors year round! Most indoor lighting is yellow orange, the narrowest part of the light spectrum. Full spectrum lighting contains all colors of the rainbow and is balanced like natural daylight, making them excellent for indoor gardening where the suns natural light is not available. Full spectrum ensures proper development and maximum growth! It's all about the light!"
The Brain is Changed
If you take a brain image of an ordinary person with no signs of any psychological disorders and submit them to psychological harassment for a long period of time the brain image will probably be different and have increased or decreased levels of activity in area's of the brain that are associated to psychological disorders or disease.
Also, as indicated on the stress effects page, one of the effects of long periods of stress is that it kills brain cells.
amenclinics.com :
''In a similar way, sleep deprivation also decreases brain activity and limits access to learning, memory, and concentration. A recent brain imaging study showed that people who consistently slept less than 7 hours had overall less brain activity. Sleep problems are very common in people who struggle with their thoughts and emotions. Getting enough sleep everyday is essential to brain function.
Scientists have only recently discovered how stress negatively affects brain function. Stress hormones have been shown in animals to be directly toxic to memory centers. Brain cells can die with prolonged stress. Managing stress effectively is essential to good brain function.''
"Happy and hopeful thoughts had an overall calming effect on the brain, while negative thoughts inflamed brain areas often involved with depression and anxiety."
"You can train your thoughts to be positive and hopeful or you can just allow them to be negative and upset you. That's right, it's up to you! You can learn how to change your thoughts and optimize your brain."
"Stay away from substances known to be toxic or those that decrease brain activity."
Magic Mineral Lifts Your Mood
A chemical found in everyday foods may help atypical depression. Duke University scientists found that consuming chromium picolinate, a trace mineral naturally found in whole grains, mushrooms, liver and many other foods, has significant effects on individuals suffering from atypical depression.

D Depression - About 90% of suicide victims are depressed or suffer from depression.
A person putting their affairs in order and giving away prized possessions is also a factor. A suicide in the family is also a factor.
Many research articles claim that long periods of stress can cause depression and that sleep deprivation (insomnia) can also cause or lead to depression. Like stress it’s self, sleep deprivation also weakens the person’s immune system.
Psychological harassment is usually associated to long periods of stress, loss of self-esteem, and depression.
Psychological harassment victims can also often have many of the factors that are associated to suicide:
Psychological harassment can induces a lot of stress on the victim. The victim can suffer from A Anxiety and insomnia. A victim of psychological harassment can have dramatic M Mood Changes due to the level of stress involved. Sleep deprivation can also cause the victim to start losing control on their emotions and not just simple irritability that most people are familiar with. It also weakens the mind.
When the means of subsistence of the victim are threatened or eliminated through the use of psychological harassment the victim may suffer (emotionally) from a lot of A Anger and resentment. They may also become desperate and act R Recklessly.
People can have a lot of pride or honor in the work they do and they can also associate a status to the work they do (position, field, reputation). When people lose their employment they can suffer from a sense of a L Loss of Honor or pride. There is also usually financial loss and their careers and reputations can also be damaged or have a sense of loss. A psychological harassment tactic is also to try to repetitively humiliate the victim and as indicated on the home page repetitive humiliation becomes destructive to the person.
When a victim is subjected to psychological harassment they may also become paranoid and hyper combative or aggressive. This may cause them to withdraw or isolate themselves from colleagues and others. Classical conditioning can also be used to associate different threats to different things or induce different psychological disorders that can also induce more paranoia and withdrawal. Systematically isolating the victim is also another tactic used in psychological harassment and can also be threatening and induce paranoia. Using psychological manipulation the victim’s beliefs or view on reality, I Ideation, can also be manipulated or changed.
If the victim of psychological harassment believes that there are no provisions or recourse when subjected to psychological harassment they may feel that they are in a H Hopeless situation or feel T Trapped.
In some cases the victim of psychological harassment can turn to or increase the use of S Substance Abuse to self medicate or help them deal with the situation. Many people also mistakenly believe that some substances like alcohol may help them sleep better.
When a person loses their employment all of a sudden they may feel that they are not contributing in some way or have a sense of P Purposelessness.

Coercive Mind Control Tactics, Dr. Margaret Thaler Singer Ph.D
Today Mind control or brainwashing in academia is commonly referred to as coercive persuasion, coercive psychological systems or coercive influence. The short description below comes from Dr. Margaret Singer professor emeritus at the University of California at Berkeley the acknowledged leading authority in the world on mind control and cults.
a short overview
Coercion is defined by the American Heritage Dictionary as:
1. To force to act or think in a certain manner
2. To dominate, restrain, or control by force
3. To bring about by force.
Coercive psychological systems are behavioral change programs which use psychological force in a coercive way to cause the learning and adoption of an ideology or designated set of beliefs, ideas, attitudes, or behaviors. The essential strategy used by the operators of these programs is to systematically select, sequence and coordinate many different types of coercive influence, anxiety and stress-producing tactics over continuous periods of time. In such a program the subject is forced to adapt in a series of tiny "invisible" steps. Each tiny step is designed to be sufficiently small so the subjects will not notice the changes in themselves or identify the coercive nature of the processes being used. The subjects of these tactics do not become aware of the hidden organizational purpose of the coercive psychological program until much later, if ever. These tactics are usually applied in a group setting by well intentioned but deceived "friends and allies" of the victim. This keeps the victim from putting up the ego defenses we normally maintain in known adversarial situations. The coercive psychological influence of these programs aim to overcome the individual's critical thinking abilities and free will - apart from any appeal to informed judgment. Victims gradually lose their ability to make independent decisions and exercise informed consent. Their critical thinking, defenses, cognitive processes, values, ideas, attitudes, conduct and ability to reason are undermined by a technological process rather than by meaningful free choice, rationality, or the inherent merit or value of the ideas or propositions being presented. How Do They Work?
The tactics used to create undue psychological and social influence, often by means involving anxiety and stress, fall into seven main categories.
TACTIC 1
Increase suggestibility and "soften up" the individual through specific hypnotic or other suggestibility-increasing techniques such as: Extended audio, visual, verbal, or tactile fixation drills, Excessive exact repetition of routine activities, Sleep restriction and/or Nutritional restriction.
TACTIC 2
Establish control over the person's social environment, time and sources of social support by a system of often-excessive rewards and punishments. Social isolation is promoted. Contact with family and friends is abridged, as is contact with persons who do not share group-approved attitudes. Economic and other dependence on the group is fostered.
TACTIC 3
Prohibit disconfirming information and non supporting opinions in group communication. Rules exist about permissible topics to discuss with outsiders. Communication is highly controlled. An "in-group" language is usually constructed.
TACTIC 4
Make the person re-evaluate the most central aspects of his or her experience of self and prior conduct in negative ways. Efforts are designed to destabilize and undermine the subject's basic consciousness, reality awareness, world view, emotional control and defense mechanisms. The subject is guided to reinterpret his or her life's history and adopt a new version of causality.
TACTIC 5
Create a sense of powerlessness by subjecting the person to intense and frequent actions and situations which undermine the person's confidence in himself and his judgment.
TACTIC 6
Create strong aversive emotional arousals in the subject by use of nonphysical punishments such as intense humiliation, loss of privilege, social isolation, social status changes, intense guilt, anxiety, manipulation and other techniques.
TACTIC 7
Intimidate the person with the force of group-sanctioned secular psychological threats. For example, it may be suggested or implied that failure to adopt the approved attitude, belief or consequent behavior will lead to severe punishment or dire consequences such as physical or mental illness, the reappearance of a prior physical illness, drug dependence, economic collapse, social failure, divorce, disintegration, failure to find a mate, etc.
These tactics of psychological force are applied to such a severe degree that the individual's capacity to make informed or free choices becomes inhibited. The victims become unable to make the normal, wise or balanced decisions which they most likely or normally would have made, had they not been unknowingly manipulated by these coordinated technical processes. The cumulative effect of these processes can be an even more effective form of undue influence than pain, torture, drugs or the use of physical force and physical and legal threats.
How does Coercive Psychological Persuasion Differ from Other Kinds of Influence? Coercive psychological systems are distinguished from benign social learning or peaceful persuasion by the specific conditions under which they are conducted. These conditions include the type and number of coercive psychological tactics used, the severity of environmental and interpersonal manipulation, and the amount of psychological force employed to suppress particular unwanted behaviors and to train desired behaviors.
Coercive force is traditionally visualized in physical terms. In this form it is easily definable, clear-cut and unambiguous. Coercive psychological force unfortunately has not been so easy to see and define. The law has been ahead of the physical sciences in that it has allowed that coercion need not involve physical force. It has recognized that an individual can be threatened and coerced psychologically by what he or she perceives to be dangerous, not necessarily by that which is dangerous.
Law has recognized that even the threatened action need not be physical. Threats of economic loss, social ostracism and ridicule, among other things, are all recognized by law, in varying contexts, as coercive psychological forces.
Why are Coercive Psychological Systems Harmful? Coercive psychological systems violate our most fundamental concepts of basic human rights. They violate rights of individuals that are guaranteed by the First Amendment to the United States Constitution and affirmed by many declarations of principle worldwide.
By confusing, intimidating and silencing their victims, those who profit from these systems evade exposure and prosecution for actions recognized as harmful and which are illegal in most countries such as: fraud, false imprisonment, undue influence, involuntary servitude, intentional infliction of emotional distress, outrageous conduct and other tortuous acts.

Sexual Harassment
Power Drives Sexual Harassment - PsychCentral (article link)
A new study suggests the abuse of power can lead to sexual harassment, especially in the workplace. Particularly, in the hands of the wrong person, power can be dangerous. However, the definition and interpretation of power varies by gender and workplace roles.
Issues of power, workplace culture and the interpretation of verbal and non-verbal communication associated with sexual harassment were the focus of a study by Debbie Dougherty, at the University of Missouri-Columbia. Working with a large healthcare organization in the Midwest, Dougherty examined the question: why does sexual harassment occur?
“Power,” she said.

PTSD
"After a single traumatic event, as many as one-fourth of people exposed will develop post-traumatic stress disorder, a psychiatric disorder characterized by anxiety, hyperarousal and persistent unwanted memories."
Can schoolyard bullying lead to PTSD?
http://www.cnn.com/2009/HEALTH/expert.q.a/03/31/bullying.ptsd.raison
"So, yes, one can develop PTSD (or post-traumatic stress disorder) symptoms around all sorts of traumatic events, not just the classic ones like warfare or rape. For example, many people develop PTSD after motor vehicle accidents or after a stay in a hospital intensive care unit. There are even a couple of studies showing that bullying does indeed increase the risk of PTSD -- and that women are twice as likely to develop symptoms as are men subjected to the same traumas. Thus, anything that really shakes a person up, scares her half to death or makes her feel completely vulnerable and out of control can produce PTSD symptoms."
Could I have PTSD from being bullied?
http://thechart.blogs.cnn.com/2011/05/24/could-i-have-ptsd-from-being-bullied
"I have been harassed for many years at work due to the fact I am considered a disabled person. I can't do some jobs because I don't have the strength or endurance. People taunted me, saying stuff like saying I was a hypochondriac. They made me do work I couldn't physically do, and I'm harassed almost on a daily basis. During this time, I developed major depression, and last year I needed time off from work because of it. I feel I have some signs of PTSD because I can't work in certain areas of the plant I work in. -- I started cutting two years ago to deal with the stress and getting suicidal thoughts, which I still deal with at this time. I am getting counseling, and I am taking medication for my depression and my ADHD. I think of the teenagers who have killed themselves because of bullying, and I understand how they felt. That is how I feel. I now work more in an area where people treat me better, but I can't forget the fact that some of my co-workers drove me to have suicidal thoughts and cutting. I
have been with this company for 26 years. I was told to forget about it since they are treating me better, but I just can't get past the hell they put me through day in and day out. Could I have PTSD or complex PTSD?"

PTSD: Know the symptoms and when to get help
http://www.cnn.com/2012/08/24/health/raison-shootings-ptsd
People with PTSD are afflicted with three primary types of symptoms. -- The first type of symptoms involves all manner of intrusive memories of the event that often come with startling clarity via flashbacks and nightmares. Along with anything else that reminds a person of the trauma, these intrusive memories produce profound psychological distress and physical symptoms, such as a pounding heart. -- The second type of symptoms revolves around avoidance and emotional numbing. -- Bedeviled as they are by unwanted memories, images, nightmares and flashbacks that keep the terrifying reality of their experience emotionally alive for them, people with PTSD often go to heroic lengths to avoid anything in the personal or physical environment that reminds them of the trauma. -- They often also report feeling emotionally deadened, unable to love and disinterested in things others find pleasurable. Often they feel like they will die young or have less of a future than other people. -- The third and final symptom domain of PTSD is known as hyperarousal. Hyperarousal symptoms include difficulty falling or staying asleep, irritability or outbursts of anger, difficulty concentrating, being hypervigilant and finally, demonstrating an exaggerated startle response. -- These PTSD symptoms usually don't travel alone, unfortunately, but are frequently accompanied by depression and difficulties with drugs and alcohol.
Operation: Warrior Wellness helps veterans with post-traumatic stress find peace in meditation

Operation: Warrior Wellness. It's a project that brings transcendental meditation to the veterans who are experiencing post-traumatic stress. -- "I've been teaching transcendental meditation for 40 years, and I've been teaching it 20, 30 years ago to Vietnam vets and even World War II vets, but it's just been in the past years where the understanding that post-traumatic stress disorder is a real epidemic that has no conventional, traditional solution," Roth says. -- "It's profoundly effective for giving deep rest, healing the brain, and reducing stress. So, we got approached by a lot of military people and veterans organizations saying, hey, can you offer TM to the vets," he adds.

Staff Sgt. June Moss was diagnosed with PTSD after serving in the Iraq war -- As more women see combat, more female vets are suffering from PTSD -- One in five female veterans suffer from PTSD, according to the VA. -- Her new mantra: "Staying positive and keeping negativity out of my life!" The horrors of the war -- witnessing decapitated and burned bodies amid mass destruction -- led to post-traumatic stress disorder. -- "I do notice when I'm stressing out that I start having dreams about what I saw and how I felt," says Moss, now 40 and retired from the Army. "It does come back as if to haunt you."
PTSD in women may have genetic link
http://thechart.blogs.cnn.com/2011/02/25/ptsd-in-women-may-have-genetic-link
Scientists are looking for genes or gene pathways that can help better predict PTSD. A new study in the journal Nature suggests one such route in women: through a protein called pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide, which is known to regulate the cellular stress response. Women are more likely to have PTSD in general; 10% of women and 5% of men develop the condition sometime in their lives. -- Study results suggest that a particular gene variant for PACAP may be sensitive to both estrogen and stress, because it is associated with women who have PTSD. -- "It helps us to understand that PTSD is complex," said Dr. Kerry Ressler of Emory University School of Medicine, lead study author. "There are many individual ways that people come to PTSD, in the same way that there are probably 100 different ways to come down with heart failure."
War vets find solace in four-legged friends
http://www.cnn.com/2012/11/09/us/cnnheroes-ptsd-service-dogs
Wilson said his depression turned him into a hermit. He would "curl up and not talk to anybody," and his anxiety made it difficult to go into public. -- If he did leave the house, he was hypervigilant. If someone walked up behind him or dropped something that emitted a clatter, it triggered the "fight or flight" mechanism he'd groomed in the military. -- The anxiety was so bad that before he was diagnosed with PTSD, he went to the emergency room four times because he thought he was having a heart attack. He "self-medicated" so heavily with booze that it strained the relationship between him and his now-wife of two years. -- "I was having to drink to numb all my senses and be quasi-normal," he said. -- When veterans train "their own service dog, there are immediate benefits right off the bat," Cortani said. "They have a mission and a purpose again. It gives them something to focus on and to complete. It gives them a sense of security and safety. ... They know they're not alone. They've always got their buddy at the end of the leash." -- Now Wilson tells Lobo, "Watch my back," and his four-legged friend stands behind him and gives him a nudge if anyone approaches. When something stokes Wilson's anxiety, Lobo senses it, jumps up and puts his paws on Wilson's chest so he can redirect his focus. -- "Knowing he's there makes me comfortable," Wilson said. "I'm not worried about the attacks. I still think about them, but I'm not hampered by them. I can go to the movies."

Everyday routines, like going to the mall, have become an ordeal.

PTSD linked to higher post-surgery death rate
http://www.cnn.com/2009/HEALTH/10/20/ptsd.veterans.mortality
Post-traumatic stress disorder may be a condition of the mind, but research has implicated it in the ills of the body. Now, a new study suggests it may be associated with death after surgery. -- The study shows that veterans with PTSD were more likely to die within a year after surgery than those without the disease, regardless of how many years had passed since their service. The study was presented at the annual meeting of the American Society of Anesthesiologists this week. -- This is the first research to examine the mortality of patients with PTSD after surgery, said study author Dr. Marek Brzezinski, anesthesiologist and assistant professor at the University of California, San Francisco. -- "If you consider that perhaps more and more patients are coming, and they're going to be with us for years to come, this is obviously a huge field that needs to be addressed," he said. -- People develop PTSD, an anxiety disorder, in response to a traumatic event. Symptoms, which include intrusive memories, social withdrawal and increased anxiety or emotional arousal, typically begin within three months of a traumatic event, according to the Mayo Clinic. -- The condition has also been correlated with increased risk for alcohol and drug abuse, smoking, obesity, diabetes, heart disease, hypertension, elevated lipid levels and other psychiatric disorders, Brzezinski said.

Psychological Harassment and Psychological Manipulation
As indicated on the home page, psychological harassment and psychological manipulation "mind control" can induce psychological and physical disorders.
When an individual is targeted, the level of harassment usually begins slowly and increases with time.
Anytime someone interacts with you they can influence your thoughts and also manipulate your thoughts.
Usually, people "tune out" the conversations around them. If you are in a crowded room and someone calls out your name they will probably attract your attention and the same goes for other specific words or sounds.
Individual's can recall or form images. The expression “I get the visual”. When someone talks about or describes a scene you may form an image even if you have never seen what the other person is talking about or describing.
An individual can come in close proximity to another individual and ask a question, If the individual hears the question, whether he is the target of the question or not, his mind can respond with an answer. The answer response can be in different forms such as an image or sound. For example, if the question is what does the person look like? The individual may form an image of the person in his mind. If the question is what is the person’s name? The individual’s mind may respond with the sound of the person’s name.
If someone says leave and slams a desk drawer or hits an object. This is a form of indirect intimidation, an indirect threat of violence. If these actions are repeated it can become a form of conditioning. The next time a person slams a desk drawer or hits an object the person may associate this as a threat.
Classical conditioning can be used to associate different threats to different things. (Fear Conditioning)

Conditioning your mind Negatively or Positively (Ivan Pavlov)
Have you ever noticed that when someone is very negative and always complaining they may start to influence you and you may start to see only the negative events or negative side of things as they do?
The way you think can be conditioned and a person can also be psychologically manipulated to have a negative thinking pattern, to always see the negative side of things or expect the worse, or to see the negatives out of a situation or event reflexively instead of being open minded or thinking of the positives first.
A tactic often used is to constantly interpret or expose the victim to negativity. In some cases it's used to induce or can lead to depression. (linked to self-esteem or self-worth)
The opposite is also true. You can condition your mind to think positively or expect positive outcomes. It’s not easy at first and does require effort but eventually it can change and become almost automatic, reflexive, where you will be thinking positively instead of negatively. You may have heard these expressions "look on the bright side, put a positive spin on it or spin it positively".
Try this exercise: Think of all the positives that you can imagine out of a situation or event and try to think of the possible positive outcomes first.
Dark Sarcasm and Negativity
Obvious corruption and the intentional cause of hardship can lead to dark sarcasm and negativity, which is linked to depression and suicide, it can also be linked to a pattern and steps that lead to homelessness.
- Mobbing and mobbing in modern society are linked to the intentional cause of hardship and obvious corruption.
- Obvious corruption and the intentional cause of hardship can lead to dark sarcasm and negativity.
- Dark sarcasm and negativity are linked to depression and suicide.
The intentional cause of hardship and obvious corruption leading to anger, frustration, negativity, and dark sarcasm, which can lead to depression and suicide.
- Links to a pattern or steps to pushing a person to homelessness and the unintentional or possible intention of pushing a person to suicide.
Condition Your Mind Happy: Act Happy
Act the way you want to feel and soon you will feel the way you act.
This is common in self-confidence building therapies or courses where you are asked to act the part of or like a confident person. You soon develop that skill or behavior which results in the person having more confidence. There is increasing evidence that acting enraged, obsessed, malevolent, or depressed maybe bad for you. Actor Leonard DiCaprio developed obsessive-compulsive disorder while playing Howard Hughes in the block buster The Aviator. This often happens to actors who get "caught up" in the role they play or keep many of the same character traits of the role they played. Heath Ledger who played the Joker in the Batman movie died and was allegedly clinically depressed. If you act having an enraged or angry conversation with someone, you will usually find that your emotions do get engaged even though you are simply acting the part.
When you are acting happy, you are thinking happy thoughts that go with the acting role you are playing, so it's like conditioning your mind to be happy.
Constant-State-of-Interrogation: Indirect Communication and Psychological Disorders (Ivan Pavlov)
The group can begin by saying the individual's name, specific words, different sounds, and use other distracting actions to attract the individual's attention. The targeted individual realizes that the group is using some form of harassment and begins to listen to the group around him.
Using indirect communication the group can insult the target, attack the individual's dignity, integrity, or self-esteem, threaten the victim, ask questions, and continue to use specific words and sounds to attract the targeted individual’s attention.
The indirect communication is also a form of conditioning and can lead to psychological disorders in which the victim feels that he is in a constant-state-of-interrogation. For example, the individual may go to a different environment and hear sounds, words, and questions. Because of the indirect communication and conditioning, the individual may feel that he is still in a state of interrogation and believe that individuals are trying to interact with him. Normally, people would usually simply “tune out” the sounds and conversations of other people.
This tactic is also used to induce paranoia.
Constant-State-of-Interrogation: Unfinished Ambiguities – Frustration and Negative Conditioning
The constant-state-of-interrogation can also be used or combined with unfinished ambiguities.
The constant-state-of-interrogation tactic involves constant distractions and indirect questions, and this can be combined with unfinished ambiguities. For example “his work is…” ? “he thinks he’s...” ? “he thinks his…” ?. This leaves the victim guessing or wondering “what?” and it can induce frustration or uncertainty.
It can also be used to negatively condition a person as to always assume the worse or negativity from ambiguities, negative conditioning.
Conditioned Sounds: Hitting Sounds and Fear Conditioning (Ivan Pavlov)
Hitting sounds can affect the nervous system and can also cause or increase the fight-or-flight phenomenon.
One tactic is to hit things or drop things randomly, the smoke screen, and then to start hitting things when threats are made towards you or indirectly. This can be an attempt to increase the reaction that you have about the threat and to condition the affect you experience from it, such as feeling threatened or fear, with hitting sounds.
Hitting sounds are linked to physical violence, so if it's used in combination with hitting sounds the fight-or-flight response can be greater.
Conditioned Words: The Identification Word or Trigger Word (Ivan Pavlov)
A tactic that is sometimes used on a victim is that the group doing the psychological harassment will start using a word, different actions can also be used, that is not commonly used to identify themselves and to identify themselves as being part of this group. Because the word is now associated to a group that is psychologically attacking the victim it can become threatening in the sense that the victim identifies an enemy, can expect a form of attack or threat, or simply identifies and associates the word to the group and the repetitive attacks and their result. The word is conditioned to a threat, the group and a possible coming attack.
Now that the victim has been conditioned to associate a threat, the group and the attacks, to an uncommon word, a more common word is used that is conditioned and associated in the same way to the same threat, an enemy or a possible coming attack. The word itself can also be associated to a threat, an indirect threat of physical violence for example, or a degrading theme that is not recognized by the general public which can increases the victims threat response. This can destabilize the victim further by confusing them and inducing more paranoia where the victim is wondering "who is who" "friend or foe" and can leave them responding more to more possible threats.
The conditioned word can become what some have termed a "trigger" word where the victim explodes in rage or to the threat, and physically attacks an innocent and unaware person, making them a victim of physical violence and making them both victims of this tactic, strategy, and phenomenon.
Social Queues: Rejection Hurts and can Lower Your Self-Esteem
Rejection hurts, registered as pain by the brain as mentioned on the home page, and rejection can be used in attempts to harm and also to lower a person's self-esteem or self-worth.
A person's self-esteem can be lowered or increased by conditioning the person to look only for certain social queues, disregard certain social queues, or by changing the meaning of certain social queues.
Smiling and laughter, social queues, are very important and also have very positive effects on the brain. A tactic often used is to try to condition, associate, negativity to the act of smiling and laughter.
Social queues like smiling indicates acceptance towards the person. A person can be conditioned to associate negativity such as a threat or rejection to a smile. If an individual is repetitively threatened or attacked by individuals that use a devilish or fake smile, that is then gradually reduced to a common smile while still engaging in this behavior, and combined with other tactics to induce paranoia such as who-is-who or friend-or-foe, the result can be that the person will associate other peoples smiles to negativity because they are reminded or conditioned by the previous behavior or because they are confused or uncertain as to its intention.
A person can be conditioned to associate negativity such as threats or sarcasm and ridicule using the same tactics as described above to laughter.
The desired emotion that victims are usually manipulated towards or led to is anger because of its negative health effects, instead of laughter.
Laughter is associated to joy and acceptance and is also a great stress and threat reducer.
Social Queues: Smiling and Acceptance The Opposite of Rejection
The simple act of smiling releases endorphins in the brain and both laughter and smiling are contagious. When you smile at someone they usually reciprocate with a smile and this is associated to acceptance and making a connection with someone, it's the opposite of rejection. Smiling also enhances people's view of you and gets you noticed.
Some studies show that people who are depressed have weaker smiling muscles and advocate smiling therapy in which the person practices making the smiling facial expression with eyes wide open and reaps the same benefits as a normal smile.
Try this exercise and see what results you get:
Make the smiling expression with eyes wide open for a few seconds and then rub or massage your face and head for several seconds. Do not do this in front of a mirror if you will view yourself negatively and look for flaws. If you do it in front of a mirror while smiling and rubbing or massaging your face, think positive and loving thoughts. It's a quick relaxing endorphins fix and see how it affects your current thoughts and mood.
Degrading Themes and Indirect Threats: Verbal Maneuvering to Hide Direct Threats
Sometimes a lot of verbal maneuvering and planning is used to hide or reduce the visibility and obviousness of a direct threat.
For example if a group makes subtle hints or insinuations about you being a homosexual for example, even though they probably know you are not, and then one of them says something like all homosexuals should be killed, it’s an indirect threat to you because of the maneuverings or it's less visible or obvious but it is still a direct threat or threat aimed at you.
As indicated on the home page, degrading themes are often used to prevent victims from coming forward and this is often the way they are used in combination with a threat or threats. The victim may have some reservations about claiming that he felt personally threatened by a threat that is made towards homosexuals. Other degrading themes, ethnics, and religions can also be used.
Degrading Themes: Inducing Degrading Images and Intrusive Thoughts
Degrading themes can be not only disturbing to a person, but also threatening. They are used to attack a persons dignity, self-image, self-esteem, induce stress, and often used in combination with negative conditioning.
A group can try to make a targeted individual form degrading and perverse images by using combinations of words, descriptions, sounds, and actions. When degrading themes are used on individuals, the targeted individual can suffer from a psychological disorder that some psychologists have termed "intrusive thoughts".
Also, as stated on the first page, insinuations, even though they are false, can have different affects on an individual. Insinuations of being a pedophile, a homosexual, a criminal, a liar, etc. Is a form of attack on a person's self-image, dignity and integrity, self-esteem, and can induce stress. One reaction that the victim can have when targeted is to have the feeling of "feeling guilty of something". Pedophilia is at the top of the list in hated things in our society and being labeled a pedophile has serious consequences, it would therefore explain why it is so often claimed to be used.
When degrading themes or different insinuations are used it can also be a form of "catch 22" if a person's claims of being psychologically harassed or targeted are dismissed and they are told that it is all in their heads. Why do you have thoughts of being a pedophile, a homosexual, why do you feel threatened by it, etc. Given the fact that psychiatry is often used to discredit the victims of psychological harassment or psychological warfare the psychological construction of a "catch 22" may work on some of the victims.
Another way degrading themes are used is to try to embarrass the victim or to repetitively humiliate the victim, because of the visible signs, such as blushing, or because of the degrading theme involved.
Degrading themes are often used to try to prevent people from coming forward and psychiatry is often used as a threat in the sense of building false profiles.

Pedophilia is one of the most hated things in our society and because of this it can be used as a weapon.
Being falsely accused or labeled of being a pedophile has very serious consequences for the victims of this phenomenon or use of pedophilia as a weapon. Even when the accusations or label are disproved at a later time the label or smear can stick.
Although the accusations are false the desired effects on the victim are usually high levels of stress, anxiety, and fear which is a part of the pedophilia weapon. Stress, anxiety, and fear being another form of weapon with serious effects on the body.
Degrading Themes: Attack Pattern to Put the Victim on the Psychological Defensive
Degrading themes can be used to put a person or victim on the defensive or psychological defensive. Some example of using degrading themes is to make insinuations that the victim is a criminal or a pedophile.
An example of an attack pattern used in psychological harassment or psychological warfare is:
• Making insinuations that the victim is a criminal or pedophile to put the victim on the defensive.
• Followed by threats to induce the fight-or-flight response or to induce fear.
Psychological Constructions: Constructions, Barriers, Restrictions, and Catch 22's
Psychological Constructions are when a condition is built into the persons psychology.
• One example is the term "catch 22" and the use of degrading themes or pedophilia to prevent victims from coming forward or to prevent exposure. There is no "catch 22" , it's a psychological construction or belief that's been built into the victim to restrict or prevent the victims from exposing the perpetrators of a crime.
• Another example is fear-of-fear. The importance of fear is "built up", a psychological construction, where previously there was no importance in fear. After the "build up" process of inducing a high importance on fear, a normal emotion in people, if the victim experiences fear, his ego or psychology can be devastated to bring them "crashing down".
False Pretenses: Deception to Prevent Exposure, Torture and False Confession Pretense
The psychological manipulation of, the pretense or deception of, wanting a false confession; the threat of wanting false or pretense of wanting false confessions, to prevent exposure.
In other words, wanting or using the deception of wanting a false confession has the opposite or reverse effect, the victims ceases all communication or cooperation.
You would believe or think that torture is used to obtain the truth, but it's actually used in many cases to do the opposite.
In some cases the confessions involve the psychological construction of “catch 22’s” or degrading themes and psychiatry or law enforcement.
Subtle Attacks: Hidden, Doubtful, Uncertain, and Psychological Defenses
Subtle attacks are usually used to destabilize a person and to get through or bypass the person's psychological defenses. They can leave the victim unsure or uncertain on how to react or wondering if the subtle attack was intentional.
The use of something personal, sensitive, or private information is usually used to destabilize the victim and to make the person feel vulnerable and insecure.
Degrading themes are also used in subtle attacks.
Verbal Dialogue to Shut Down the Brain
When you are scared, angry, insecure, or uncertain your brain does not function as well.
When opponents engage in verbal dialogue they will sometimes try to intimidate, provoke, or make each other uncertain.
• One example is to try to throw your opponent on the defensive or psychological defensive. (linked to intimidation or manipulation)
• Another example is to use an ambiguity to make the person uncertain.
• Another example is to use subtle attacks to try to provoke anger, intimidate, fear, and uncertainty.
Anger: Anger Makes You Powerful or Stronger?
When psychological warfare is waged on someone, attempts are made to provoke reactions that are harmful to the victim such as anger.
Anger is the preferred reaction of choice because of the negative effects it has on the victims health and body such as increased adrenaline, cortisol levels, and blood pressure; and the victim can be psychologically manipulated or conditioned to react with anger or deceived into believing that this makes them more powerful or stronger.
Laughter is a great stress reliever and very health. It can also diffuse threats or tense situations.
The Funny Quick Brain
When people are calm, relaxed, or in a humorous mode their brains are usually faster and functions better.
Ambiguities: Self-Doubt and Uncertainty (A State-of-Limbo)
Humans do not like ambiguities and uncertainty, we like to have certainty and security, and ambiguities are often used to induce insecurity or uncertainty.
Sometimes ambiguities are used to confuse the victim and to leave them wondering what it is that they are suppose to do or be doing, or what is the intended meaning. This can affect the victim by placing them in doubt or used to induce self-doubt and uncertainty, reducing decision making abilities, and can also have the state-of-limbo affect.
The ambiguities can also be manipulated as to hinting at a certain meaning and then modified to hint or indicate another meaning, and so on, to keep the victim confused or guessing as to what the true meaning of the ambiguities are. This can induce confusion, frustration, and self-doubt.
Ambiguities can also be used for emotional manipulation such as inducing regret for example. One way this is done is by hinting at a certain meaning of what the ambiguities mean, combined with very subtle hints at another and different meaning. After a period of time the meanings can be reversed or what was the subtle meaning can be clarified or made more obvious to the victim to induce regret, self doubt, and also attack or reduce the victim’s self-esteem and self-confidence.
Classical conditioning can also be used with ambiguities. For example the victim can be constantly bombarded with negativity or is lead to the conclusion that past ambiguities also had a negative meaning. Because of the conditioning the person will deduce or assume what is implied follows the same trend or pattern of negativity or theme. Conditioning your mind Negatively or Positively
Song lyrics often use ambiguities so that the listener can apply the lyrics to their own life or view on reality. Ambiguities can also be used to influence a person's view on reality or in combination with efforts to change a person's view on reality.
Ambiguities: Inducing Self-Doubt and Attacks to Self-Confidence
A tactic that is often used to attack a person's self-confidence and to induce self-doubt is to ask a question using an ambiguity, when the person answers with a deduction or guess, a negative wrong or no is indicated and a more accurate re-question is provided with the correct answer. This is done repetitively to induce self-doubt and attack a person's self-confidence by having them believe that their conclusions or deductions are always false.
Metaphorical Speech: Hidden Threats and View on Reality Manipulation
Sometimes people will use metaphors and metaphorical speech to try to hide different threats or use words that are not obvious in their association to a threatening nature and try to reduce the risk of exposure or criminal evidence.
The meaning of different words can also be changed as with sarcasm. For example if two people that hate each other are using the words "I love you", the intention and meaning of the words used do not have the same meaning or intention as the definition of the words.
Metaphorical speech can also be used to change or manipulate the view on reality of a victim. For example metaphorical speech can be used to describe a certain view on reality or belief that is not the actual reality in an attempt to manipulate the person. Ideation in Suicide Factors
The words "profile", "psychoanalyzed", we are going to "fill you up" in the sense of creating a bad or false psychological profile and using psychiatry as a threat. The victim is psychologically harassed and also bombarded with degrading themes, such as pedophilia for example and combined with attempts to make the victims believe that they will be labeled a pedophile, sexually confused, or a violent, angry, and dangerous person. The truth and reality is that this tactic is used by the perpetrators in an attempt to protect themselves, discredit the victim, and prevent the victim form coming forward and exposing them.
Another example is referring to the victim as an animal such as a dog. The attempts made by the victim to expose the perpetrators are then metaphorically described as trying to "bite", like a dog, or "eat" the perpetrators. Using metaphors that are orally oriented are then re-directed towards or used with degrading themes in attempts to prevent victims from continuing the behavior of trying to expose perpetrators. This example of the victim being metaphorically described as a dog can also imply or insinuate that the person is less than human and can be controlled by a master or as a slave.
A better use of metaphors to describe the situation is that by trying to expose the perpetrators, the victim is using the light (exposure and visibility) and the perpetrators trying to use the darkness (deception and concealment).
When your enemy uses the darkness and tries to hide in the darkness, you have to use the light.
Interpretation and View on Reality Manipulation: The Workplace, The Media, Propaganda, Brainwashing
Event or Action -> Interpretation of Event -> Reinforcement of Interpretation
An event or reality -> interpretation of this event or reality -> reinforcement of interpretation and view on reality
In the workplace, employees who are psychologically harassed or psychologically tortured are often described as having the wrong interpretation of events, or having a "perception problem", a "bad attitude", and the wrong view of reality. They are then asked to consult a medical professional, a psychiatrist, and are then usually subsequently discredited and classified as having a psychological problem or mental illness.
You may have seen this in the media where something will happen, the media will interpret it in a way that is false according to other media groups or to your understanding of events and evidence, and will then proceed to try to reinforce their view and interpretation on reality or events and evidence.
Conflicting countries or organizations will often use what is called propaganda and their media to interpret their view on reality and events. For example the media in the US, Russia, Europe, China, and Asia may all have different interpretations of events and views on reality that they wish to induce in their audience.
Controlling a victim's source of information and interpreting reality and events for the victim is also part of brainwashing technologies. An example of brainwashing and psychological attacks is Fear of Fear and Attacks to the Honor. A victim will be lead to believe that the fight-or-flight response is fear, they are then threatened which results in the fight-or-flight response, which is interpreted as fear, you were scared (showing fear to your enemy), and the victim's honor is then attacked. Degrading Themes
Interpretations and evidence are not the same. For example if the interpretation of events is that Julius Caesar throw himself on the knifes of the Senators several times, that would contradict the evidence, so ignorance, intelligence, and the ability to interpret the events and evidence correctly and deduce the right view on reality is key and a factor.
Fear-of-Fear: Attacks to the Honor
Some people may feel that the feeling or emotion of fear attacks their honor. Fear is usually used to attack a person's honor, ego, and self-confidence..
A tactic that is sometimes used, is to lead the victim to believe that to feel threatened, and the resulting fight-or-flight response, is fear. Therefore the more threatened they feel equals more fear. This tactic deceives the victim and attacks them in two ways. The first is to threaten them, causing the fight-or-flight response, and the second is to simply feel threatened attacks their honor, which results in a chain reaction of an increasing threat. This response results in social withdrawal where the victim tries to avoid threatening situations or public areas.
The way this is usually used is to make the victim believe that to feel threatened, and the fight-or-flight response, is fear. The visible signs of the body having the fight-of-light response, like adrenaline, are therefore signs of fear that show the individuals or the enemy threatening them that they are scared. This belief is used to attack the victim's honor and the victim can be repetitively humiliated this way.
Movies or Audio that projects fear or the emotion of fear can also affect an individual.
In the circle of warriors, to experience fear and still destroy your enemies makes you even braver and increases your honor.
Fear-of-Humiliation
Fear-of-humiliation is linked or similar to fear-of-fear but different.
• Fear-of-fear is about fearing fear itself because to feel fear results in an attack to the person's honor, which can result in humiliation.
• Fear-of-humiliation is fearing humiliation or being humiliated.
In both cases the person or victim can become aversive to situations or the possibility of being fearful or humiliated, usually through repetitive psychological attacks in public places. The result is that the victim can become aversive to public places, which can result in isolation.
Responsibility and Vulnerability
A stressful situation and tactic that is sometimes used to induce stress in a person is to give a person full responsibility for a department, for example, but the control to make changes or take action is given to someone else. This can have the effect of making the person insecure or feel vulnerable because they have no control over what they are fully responsible or accountable for, and it also places them at the "mercy" of someone else that can harm their career.
Ideation: To Manipulate Victims
People can be led to believe things that are false in order to manipulate them and even to try to drive them to suicide or to harm others.
For example a person can be led to believe that they are about to be fired or constantly on the verge of being fired to induce stress, paranoia, and insecurity. Another example is to lead the person to believe that they will be sued or going bankrupt, will be falsely accused resulting in prison time, will never be employed again, or lose their spouse.
Used with degrading themes the victim can be led to believe that they will be labeled a pedophile or used as a prostitute. That the perpetrators control the world and that the victim must obey.
Beneficial Intentions: To Deceive Victims
Some victims may not understand why someone would do this to them or how some people can do this to others, what the motives are for doing this to them, and therefore can be deceived into believing the phenomenon is of beneficial intentions.
The phenomenon of psychological harassment or warfare can also leave the victims in doubt or confused as to what is going on or what is the intention or purpose of these psychological manipulations, psychological attacks, and events in question are for. Are the intentions in some way benevolent for training purposes or self improvement. It can also leave the victim unaware that a psychological war is being waged on them and the doubt, confusion, and deception can result in preventing the victims from taking action or fighting back.
• It's a test.
• It's training.
• It's to make you stronger or tougher.
• It's an initiation or rite of passage.
Beneficial Intentions: The Failure Strategy
When a group with psychological warfare expertise targets a victim and tries to create situations, street theatre, scenarios, or events with the intention of embarrassing, humiliating, threaten, anger, induce fear, or other harmful effects they need a strategy to deal with the failure or failures if the events in question do not produce the desired outcome or result.
A failure of a group who tries to intentionally attack or humiliate a victim builds confidence in the victim for overcoming this challenge or properly dealing with the event in question, so there is a need to have a strategy or tactic to eliminate or reduce the confidence building phenomenon that results as much as possible. One of the ways this is done is by trying to make the victim believe the false view on reality or interpretation that it was a test, a training situation, and that there was or may have been some kind of benevolent intention in this kind of actions or scenario.
Beneficial Intentions: The Never Ending Test
One example for this strategy or tactic is to interpret the events as a test, the result is that the victim feels he is on a never ending test since these situations, events, and attacks are usually repetitive in this kind of on going psychological harassment or psychological war. Many of these tactics can also be considered to be psychological torture or used for psychological torture.
My Space, Your Space, Not Behind Me
A tactic that is sometimes used to make a victim feel vulnerable or more threatened, is to be threatened in some way and have the perpetrator stand directly behind them and out of view. Instinctively you would not want someone that is hostile towards you to stand directly behind you and out of view whether you feel threatened by the threats that were made or not.
You may have also noticed that when a person is hostile towards you and acts aggressively by thrashing or hitting objects it can trigger more of the fight-or-flight response from you. A similar tactic to the first, is for a person that is hostile towards you to motion an object towards you, towards your face, or to be in or come into "your space".
Staring Drills: To Provoke and Manipulate
Staring drills are used to intimidate, provoke, make a person aggressive, and to destabilize victims.
It's linked to manipulation, credibility, and justification.
One technique is to simply stare at the victim and another is to whisper "you're scared" and engage in staring contests.
The Domination Game: Who Dominates
Some people may worry or have stress about who they believe they can dominate or dominate and who they may or may not dominate. The word or metaphors "alpha male", as in wolf a pack, is also often used to describe a leader or someone in a leadership position. People in the workplace or in a relationship may continually try to dominate each other causing conflicts and tensions.
Domination can also be used as or in a psychological construction where a lot of importance is placed on who you dominate and this can result in a lot of stress and difficulties for people who think in terms of domination or have the "domination thing" in their head.
To remove this psychological construction or view on reality, you can simply view domination as 'you do not dominate anyone and no one dominates you'. In the workplace, positions should be clearly defined as having authority or a leadership role. Employees need to fulfill their obligations as employees and when people are in a relation, the relationship is supposed to be based on teamwork and usually does not involve one partner having authority over the other.
Psychological Warfare or Manipulation: In Covert Type Investigations
Individuals can use words, actions, and sounds that will make a target recall memories associated to a specific event. Observers can note different reactions from the target such as fear, surprise, embarrassment (red face), anger, and different emotions. From these reactions the observers can obtain clues to the level of involvement or knowledge that the target may have about a certain event.
A simple example of this is if the targeted individual was involved in an event that has a specific location. The group can say the name of the location, like a street name. If the target does not associate this to anything or any memories, he will disregard the comments of strangers and have no reaction. If, however, the target does associate it to something, he may, or may not, have different reactions.
This scenario maybe repeated several times with different association pointers to get a better view or result. Like taking many measurements and obtaining some kind of average or again, a better view.
This psychological manipulation scenario can also be used to stress, or panic, a target. And a possible motive would be to have them use some kind of telecommunication device, that the target believes to be secure, and to possibly push the target to communicate to a partner, that may also be involved in the event, where he would discuss the strange phenomenon that he believes is happening to him or discuss the events in question. It’s a fact that in the US, Canada, and the UK there are secret organizations that listen to all telecommunications in these countries and that they also share information among themselves. Many people also believe that these organizations share information with other organization indirectly or through indirect channels.
There are many possible psychological manipulation type scenarios that can involve the use of sensitive information or dark secrets. You may have seen a movie where the “bad guy” says something like “get me some dirt on this guy”. The information would be used to intimidate the target or induce fear, stress, and paranoia. This type of scenario can easily fall into the classification of black mail where the target is in a catch 22 situation. The target would have to reveal the sensitive information or dark secrets to law enforcement in order to obtain some kind of help or assistance. His claims could also simply be dismissed as paranoia or delusions. And even if his claims would happen to be believed, there simply would be no proof or evidence.
Psychological warfare or using psychiatry in strong arm tactics is not a new phenomenon and it usually involves discrediting the target or having them declared psychologically ill. These tactics and technologies are usually used by powerful organizations. An example of this can be seen in the movie blue sky, set in the 1950’s, where the army uses psychiatry to hospitalize and medicate the target.
Psychological Warfare: Three Top Priorities or Objectives
• Discredit or destroy the victims credibility.
• Conceal psychological warfare knowledge.
• Eliminate the victim's means of subsistence or resources.
Psychological Warfare: Some Identified Weapons
• Psychiatry to attack the psychological integrity and credibility of victims.
• The weapon of degrading themes or pedophilia to use as a threat or to prevent exposure.
• The weapon of high levels of stress and sleep deprivation.
• The weapon of homelessness or eliminating a persons means of subsistence and financial resources.
When psychiatry attacks the victim's psychological integrity and credibility it makes the victim more vulnerable to the phenomenon or crime of criminal harassment or psychological warfare and it also conceals the related knowledge.
High levels of sleep deprivation can lead to macromineral deficiencies and acid-base disorders that can result in serious illnesses and even death.
High levels of sleep deprivation can also be used to overwhelm the victims body and lead to cancer.
Psychological Warfare: Credibility
Psychological warfare is an invisible technology that deals with the mind and destroying the victim’s credibility in order to prevent exposure is a top priority. Destroying the victim’s credibility also results in feelings or the belief of hopelessness.
Advanced technology and psychological manipulation are also used to make the victim’s claims more unbelievable or to make dismissing these claims easier or more justified.
When a group or an organization engages in psychological harassment or warfare they usually use tactics or operate in a way to discredit the victim or have the victim discredited by the medical community, notably psychiatry. Campaigns of disinformation or false information and information restrictions or isolation are usually used as well.
Psychological Warfare: Who can Contradict the Qualified Professionals
If psychiatry and psychologist claim that psychological warfare does not exist, who is qualified to contradict them or to say differently.
Over the years and decades qualified medical professionals, notably psychiatrists, and psychologist have been telling victims that psychological harassment and psychological warfare do not exist, and the victims were subsequently labeled as mentally ill. The phenomenon and its effects on victims was not documented given the fact that it was said not to exist and actually said to be a medical or mental disorder. The phenomenon of psychological harassment and psychological warfare was explained or interpreted in terms of the victim being ill and delusional instead of being a victim of this phenomenon.
With the power of the internet and websites such as this one, the denial of the existence of this phenomenon is probably quickly changing given the fact that it creates a problem or dilemma for the medical community or medical professionals that would continue this practice.
Psychological Warfare: Bullies and Criminals
As powerful as some bullies and criminals may be, just like the common or regular bully and criminal they fear the light and exposure.
Psychological Warfare: Powerful Organizations and Secrets
When powerful organizations are willing to kill you and other people to preserve its secrets and prevent exposure, you need to share that secret with the whole world.
It reduces the value of targeting you or the value of your death.
• Many organizations, including psychiatry, claim that psychological warfare does not exist and some powerful organizations are willing to kill in order to preserve this knowledge and to prevent exposure.
• This knowledge has been used to drive people to homelessness, suicide, and to cause death through high levels of stress and sleep deprivation.
It's called crimes against humanity and society which is another very good reason to want to prevent exposure.
Psychological Warfare Pattern: Homelessness
Psychological Warfare -> Psychiatry and Credibility -> Homelessness
Victims are subjected to psychological warfare -> discredited by psychiatry -> lose their means of subsistence and become homeless.
Victims may also be coerced into prostitution, crime, or organized crime for survival.
Attack Pattern: Brainwashing or Deceiving and Conditioning the Fight-or-Flight Response to Mean Fear
Action -> Interpretation -> Re-enforce Interpretation : attack or threat -> interpretation of event or reaction -> re-enforce interpretation
• attack: a psychological attack or threat to get the fight-or-flight response.
• interpret reaction: the fight-or-flight response or adrenaline is interpreted as being fear "you're scared".
• re-enforce interpretation: "you were scared" or "you got scared".
Participants try to deceive or brainwash the victim into believing that to feel threatened, adrenaline, or the fight-or-flight response means fear.
Fear is used to attack the victim's honor and the victim's honor is threatened if he shows fear or if his enemy sees fear.
In other words, attempts are made to deceive or brainwash the victim into believing that the fight-or-flight response is fear because it can be easily induced through threats and interpreted as fear, to attack the victims honor and repetitive humiliation, and to use the fear-of-fear tactic.
Fear and the fight-or-flight response are two different things:
• fear is an emotion.
• the fight-or-flight response is a response to a threat.
Attack Pattern: Public Places and the Cash Register
• A network of participants harasses and threatens the victim while the victim is doing his shopping.
• A degrading theme is used to put the victim on the defensive.
This is part of psychological warfare and also done to induce the fight-or-flight response, adrenaline.
• The line up at the cash register is a location where participants try to stand behind victims while they use threats or used threats in the shopping area, or use subtle threats related to degrading themes, to increase the fight-or-flight.
• Fear-of-fear and fear-of-humiliation are used or built up with comments such as "he's scared" to induce more stress and anxiety.
• Once at the cash register the victim is in a "under a microscope" situation where the reactions and behavior are interpreted as fear.
• Subtle attacks related to degrading themes are used to cause embarrassment or blushing to destabilize or put the victim on the defensive.
• Because of threats, fight-or-flight response, and adrenaline the victim's behavior or reactions are interpreted as fear to attack the victims honor and in attempts to humiliate the victim.
• Things that are focused on to interpret fear are the victim's behavior, reactions, gestures, their voices, and their signatures.
• It's a network that wages psychological warfare and uses threats to induce the fight-or-flight syndrome or cortisol and adrenaline.
• The fight-or-flight response, stress, cortisol, and adrenaline (potassium) deplete the body of macrominerals which leads to different disorders such as macromineral deficiencies and acid-base disorders.
Behavior: Anti-Social Behavior Change
A change in behavior towards being anti-social or withdrawal is a classic sign of psychological harassment or criminal psychological harassment.
A Criminal Harassment Network Routine Example (HSS Hypersonic Sound)
A routine example is that I would go to a grocery store when highly sleep deprived through sound technology (HSS), criminal harassment participants would mix in with other shoppers and use different forms of threats and provocation to induce stress and adrenaline, try to stand directly behind me at the cash register, and interpret the adrenaline and voice fluctuations as fear, which is linked to fear and honor, and attempts at repetitive humiliation.
Criminal Harassment Network Routines, Strategies, and Smear Campaigns
criminal harassment network routines, strategies, and smear campaigns that involves psychological manipulation, technology, and uttering threats.
Criminal Harassment Network Strategy (Abuse Strategy)
According to Marie-France Hirigoyen psychiatrist the intent of many emotional abusers is to systematically "destabilize" and confuse their victims (with irrational, threatening behavior that preys on the victim's fears and self-doubts), to isolate and control them and ultimately to destroy their identity, and often emotional abuse builds over a long period of time until it becomes so unbearable that victims lash out in frustration and anger aka hitting back, only to appear unstable and aggressive themselves, which could be linked to or the cause of rage shooting and rampages.
Often, emotional abuse builds over a long period of time until it becomes so unbearable that victims lash out in frustration and anger, only to appear unstable and aggressive themselves. -- This, according to Hirigoyen, is the intent of many abusers: to systematically "destabilize" and confuse their victims (with irrational, threatening behavior that preys on the victim's fears and self-doubts), to isolate and control them and ultimately to destroy their identity. -- psychiatrist Marie-France Hirigoyen, author of Le harcèlement moral
Criminal Harassment Network Strategy (Damage, Provocation, Rampage)
Pushing people to violence consist of abuse or inflicting a damage, financial loss, homelessness, smear campaign and criminal record, serious illness and cancer, fear linked to honor and repetitive humiliation, and using provocation to push people to aggressiveness, looking deranged or enraged, or violence. Any resulting violence is used to repress the targeted citizen and any rage shooting is used to advocating gun control, a defenseless population, which makes citizen more vulnerable to abuse, hidden abuse, or subjugation through organized crime.
A Criminal Harassment Network Routine (Repetitive Humiliation)
A routine example is that I would go to a grocery store when highly sleep deprived through sound technology (HSS Hypersonic Sound), criminal harassment participants would mix in with other shoppers and use different forms of threats and provocation to induce stress and adrenaline, try to stand directly behind me at the cash register, and interpret the adrenaline and voice fluctuations as fear "you're scared", which is linked to fear and honor, and attempts at repetitive humiliation.
A Criminal Harassment Network Routine (Psychiatric Intervention)
Criminal Allegations of uttering threats are combined with powerful radar assaults and assessment orders for non-criminal responsibility before trial. The threat of intervention is linked to behavior that can be used to justify psychiatric intervention that leads to incarceration during the long and delayed criminal proceedings. The behavior linked to taking protective measures against the powerful radar assaults through attenuation materials and a person's personal and household hygiene that begins to suffers due to attempts to avoid these. The criminal harassment network routine of threats to induce adrenaline and cortisol, trying to standing directly behind the victim at the cash register, and interpret the voice fluctuations as fear is changed to threats of psychiatric intervention that leads to incarceration, participants trying to smell the victim, saying "he smells bad", and criminal harassment participants theater or pretense that they are undercover psychiatrist who wants to intervene and incarcerate the victim of criminal harassment.
Criminal Harassment Network Smear Campaign Strategy ("Run Away or Get Cancer")
After allegations of uttering threats and an assessment order for non-criminal responsibility before trial the targeted citizen is assaulted with powerful radar with criminal harassment participants saying "run away or get cancer". When the targeted citizen runs away they are recaptured and incarcerated for the assessment order and during the criminal proceedings, isolated.
Criminal Harassment Network Smear Campaign Strategy (Uttering Threats)
One psychological manipulation that criminal harassment participants try to do is to try to lead the targeted citizen to believe that if they act aggressive the participants will be fearful, which is combined with the criminal harassment networks routine of attempting to induce fear and interpret voice fluctuations as fear, and linked to manipulating the targeted citizen into reacting to this through aggressiveness and their own attempts to induce fear in return. It is a psychological manipulation and attempt at conditioning towards an aggressive response or retaliation from threats, which is supposed to eventually lead to more aggressive behavior and uttering threats, and the crime of uttering threats is linked to the smear campaign strategy.
Criminal Harassment Network Smear Campaign Strategy (Uttering Threats, Neighbors)
Following the allegations of uttering threats that are combined with powerful radar assaults from neighboring homes, provocation is used through sound technology along with the assaults, a cancer causing weapon, and attempts at manipulation the targeted citizen to threaten, retaliate, or utter threats towards neighbors, which can be linked to police surveillance of a "dangerous individual", another charger of uttering threats, and incarceration without release during the proceedings.
Criminal Harassment Network Smear Campaign Strategy (Uttering Threats, Online Activity, Lash Out in Anger, Cyberbullying)
This strategy is similar to the "Uttering Threats, Neighbors" strategy but also includes the threat of civil lawsuits and the new cyberbullying law. After wrong doing citizens want to denounce perpetrators of wrong doing, if they are isolated they will do so online. The strategy is the same as the previous, powerful radar assaults that are combined with provocation through sound technology, which leads to anger, which can lead to lashing out or uttering threats online and defaming those involved, the police and crown prosecutors. For this new online routine to work the freedom of expression needed to be weakened and a new cyberbullying law was needed to give victims the tools to obtain the IP address for a civil lawsuits, or to use these for threats to prevent online denunciation and exposure by the perpetrators, the criminal harassment network organized crime participants. (Marie-France Hirigoyen psychiatrist)
Criminal Harassment Network Smear Campaign Strategy (Uttering Threats, Addressing Constitutional Questions)
The powerful radar assaults prevent civil lawsuits that follow false allegations or a failed smear campaign to recover the financial loss in the costly criminal proceedings, addressing constitutional questions that involve uttering threats and the freedom of expression, and circumventing the right to a trial through non-criminal responsibility before trial.
Repression of Workplace Psychological Harassment Knowledge Linked to Criminal Harassment Networks? - (Repression, Knowledge, Human Right Defenders)
One strategy of workplace psychological harassment is to engage in this behavior and emotional abuse in attempts to destabilize an employee so that they lash-out in anger only to look deranged and aggressive, through violence, uttering threats, sabotage, etc., to get rid of them. The strategy of criminal harassment networks are very similar but instead of an employer being the "workplace police" and getting rid of the employee the city police are the ones who file criminal allegations towards the victim of criminal harassment. These criminal harassment networks use criminal harassment and psychological manipulation in attempts to use the criminal allegation charge of of uttering threats for any targeted citizen that lashes out in this way or is manipulated towards this behavior, similar to the workplace psychological harassment strategy. This strategy may be one of the explanations for why workplace psychological harassment knowledge and human right defenders who document these issues are targeted, repressed, inflicted with cancer, etc.,. Any resulting violence is used to repress the targeted citizen and any rage shooting is used to advocate gun control. (see Rage Shooting Factors)
Criminal Harassment Network Strategy (Eliminate Functionality)
Criminal harassment networks are linked to the city Police, city Court House, "secret police", and regimes. These try to eliminate the means of subsistence of targeted citizens pre-criminal allegations or during criminal proceedings to reduce the targeted citizens ability to defend themselves and their (functionality). They are using sound technology from neighboring homes, LRAD systems and HSS Hypersonic Sound, to highly sleep deprive targeted citizens, incapacitate them, and eliminate their (functionality), and powerful radar assaults from neighboring homes linked to deadly cancers that targeted citizens try to avoid, which reduces or eliminates their (functionality).
Notes: They eliminate a citizens ability to function during criminal proceedings, which can be linked to intentionally delaying and extending the proceedings as long as possible in attempts to win convictions. The powerful radar assaults are linked to other strategies already mentioned "run away or get cancer" to incarcerate a person during the proceedings, police and psychiatric intervention for the resulting behavior linked to radar assaults, to circumvent the right to a trial and make an unlawful seizure of private computers legal through non-criminal responsibility before trial, and to inflict deadly cancers on a long term, which makes targeted citizens vulnerable to coercion similar to homelessness and are hidden homicides. All of these facts are linked to regimes but another link is advocating a defenseless population that makes the population more vulnerable to abuse, helps conceal abuse, repressing human rights defenders that document mobbing, bullying, cyberbullying, and hidden homicides through cancer that are linked to claims of a "low homicide rate".

Criminal Strategy Examples, Motive Incarceration, No Trial, Personal Hygiene and Degrading Themes, Repression Through Cancer (Powerful Radar Assaults)
Criminal allegations are combined with radar assaults along with insinuations the accused is dangerous.
THE FIRST STRATEGY -- MENTAL ILLNESS, DISCRIMINATION, ASSESSMENT ORDERS, THE RIGHT TO A FAIR TRIAL
The first strategy uses assessment orders before trial, disability and mental illness, and participating psychiatrists to circumvent the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
The strategy is linked to smear campaigns and using assessment orders for non-criminal responsibility of committing a crime due to mental illness before trial when the accused has not committed a crime. It uses ignorance or the claim that being not guilty of committing a crime due to mental illness is the same as simply being not guilty. The accused does not go to trial or get a trial.
THE TWELFTH STRATEGY -- POWERFUL RADAR ASSAULTS
Similar to the use of homelessness to repress and circumvent the rights and freedoms of targeted citizens, powerful radar assaults are used to repress targeted citizens through homelessness, different linked strategies such as smear campaigns, and serious illness, cancer.
DISABILITY, INTERVENTION AND VULNERABILITY, Example 8 a) (Personal Hygiene, Motive Incarceration and Degrading Themes)
a) Following a demand that the accused remain incarcerated for psychological evaluation that fails and a conditional release with a demand for an assessment order for non-criminal responsibility that succeeds, the accused is assaulted by powerful radar leading to strange behavior, deteriorating personal hygiene as they try to avoid these and attempts to shield themselves from these through the use of dense materials, the police try to intervene, which leads to incarceration during the proceedings and the "unlawful" assessment order before trial.
Disability, Intervention and Vulnerability Scenario Illustration Example, Motive Incarceration (8 a))
After being released under conditions and an "unlawful" assessment order for non-criminal responsibility before trial, I was assaulted by powerful radar. The Police tried to intervene several times claiming the behavior linked to shielding and attenuation attempts, "microwaves?", was not normal, which would result in my incarceration at the prison psychiatric institute. -- I was later found "guilty" without a trial through "non-criminal responsibility", which sanctioned the false allegations, searching my home without a warrant, seizing personal computers and information without a warrant, communication interception and surveillance, ..
Repression Through Smear Campaigns and Serious Illness, Cancer
1. radar assaults
2. criminal allegations (participants and uttering threats)

Criminal Harassment and Threats (Focused Ultrasound)
A video about Focused Ultrasound that can "hit the brain", cause brain lesions, strokes, and heart attacks.
http://ireport.cnn.com/docs/DOC-747227
Focused Ultrasound for use in the medical field as shown in the video may be in use as a domestic weapon according to some reports to "hit the brain", causing damage and brain lesions to inflict strokes and heart attacks, a weapon that leaves very little evidence similar to another weapon in use, powerful radar assaults, which are linked to leukemia and other deadly cancers like lung cancer.
The 2005 Award Winning sound technology HSS Hypersonic Sound that creates sound at great distances and in specific targeted locations may be linked given the same type of technology involved, focused ultrasound.
Criminal harassment and threats, the mob wanting to remove your brain or "hit your brain" to prevent exposure or linked to repression through serious illness, strokes and heart attacks, similar to how powerful radar assaults are linked to repression through serious illness, cancer.
Racial Profiling, Discrimination
Racial profiling is linked to strategy, manipulation, interpretations, false pretenses, and discrimination has serious effects on a person's psychological and physical health.
THE THIRTEENTH STRATEGY, RACIAL PROFILING -- There has been a lot of talk about racial profiling but it has been rejected by most judicial system courts because of its link to discrimination. -- Similar to a strategy to create false profiles by the mob to help in future prosecutions that was previously mentioned, racial profiles and other types of profiles can be fabricated and created simply to justify different actions linked to abuse or circumventing the rights and freedoms of citizens. -- Imagine a racial profile that claims a specific ethnic is more likely to be involved in drug trafficking and a racial profile is used to justify a search without a warrant, circumventing the need for a warrant for a lawful search and seizure.
Criminal Allegations, Threats of Intervention, Criminal Harassment Network Strategy
"Intervention and incarceration[2], the criminal harassment network that the defendant has been documenting for several years used the threat of intervention extensively during this period of time. The threat of intervention is linked to behavior, protection measures against the powerful radar assaults, and personal hygiene that begins to suffers due to attempts to avoid these. -- (So the public criminal harassment routine of threats to induce adrenaline and cortisol, trying to standing directly behind the victim at the cash register, and interpret the voice fluctuations as fear is changed to threats of intervention, participants trying to smell the victim, saying "he smells bad", .. and every criminal harassment participant is an undercover psychiatrist who wants to intervene and incarcerate the victim of criminal harassment.)"
THE TWELFTH STRATEGY -- POWERFUL RADAR ASSAULTS
Thermal imaging (FLIR thermal imaging device, Privacy , R. v. Tessling, 2004 SCC) and radioactive isotopes are used to circumvent the privacy of a home, in a similar way radiation technology or powerful radar assaults linked to deadly cancers, death, on a longer term than other deadly weapons are used to assault a citizen with a weapon in their own home to circumvent the right to security, the right to liberty linked to psychiatric intervention leading to incarceration, and on a long term the right to life.
The twelfth strategy is linked to the first strategy, the use of non-criminal responsibility to circumvent the right to a fair trial, and the seventh strategy, the use of intervention leading to incarceration to circumvent the right to liberty.

Discrimination Often Leads To Declining Physical Health For Obese Individuals - Medical News Today (article link)
The discrimination that obese people feel, whether it is poor service at a restaurant or being treated differently in the workplace, may have a direct impact on their physical health, according to new research from Purdue University.
"Obesity is a physiological issue, but when people have negative interactions in their social world - including a sense of being discriminated against - it can make matters worse and contribute to a person's declining physical health,"
