What about those who are chemically poisoned, as 28% of the general population must be ... (Per gulf war illness studies ... 'gulf war syndrome' vets are no more harmed than the general population)

 

The chemical I suspect for primary harm during war times for military ... and for many, many civilians would cause this Central Nervous System poisoning/damage:

  • Short term memory loss
  • Difficulty concentrating
  • Personality changes to 'grumpy' - Extreme Irritability - Anger Outbursts
  • Paranoia
  • Difficulty sleeping at night - Sleep apnea? Narcolepsy in the opposite extreme?
  • All the time Depression
  • Suicidal Tendencies
  • Mimics true psychiatric disorder 
  • (PTSD) ?

    And a whole lot more

    So, for these, they will feel guilty ... thinking they should be able to control their responses, in normal fashion, and for sure no one else is going to give them any 'space'

    Often they will be divorced; make bad choices; interact inappropriately socially.  As they become more and more rejected ... accusing others 'falsely' of cheating at board games, etc ... they have depression to deal with AND suicidal tendencies.

    I know someone who unfortunately has started drinking to excess in their off-work time which makes these type of health issues worse and interactions with others less appropriated also. (Compounding an existing problem shall we say.)  The chemical that does the above is a complex alcohol.  So why add exposure/s of the regular alcohol on top of that?

     

    I've found people are not interested  in my sharing anything with them

  • Respidol (1/2 tablet) was very helpful to my mom when she had paranoia

  • Paranoia from a chemical poisoning
