Nah.. nothing that cool... just repressed memory, the reason I haven't been reminded about it is because everyone around me choosed not to talk about it to me... we had talked about it while still on deployed but when we got home, no one mentioned it, and my head decided to keep it in the back... so... yea...

I didnt know till I got home from my last trip that stress actually affects the part of your brain that controls memory. Its weird having people tell you about stuff you did that you dont remember doing. But that ends up happening alot more often than people might think.

It's a weird sensation.
we are going over the details in each session, when first i hear them, I panic (as told above) but after, when repeated (start of next session after), its more like a movie that makes you really scared/angry.. so that way we have been able to continue a little at a time at each session... so yea... all is getting recorded for me (and the doc) to look at later....

Wow. That's intense, LAYF. Glad you're getting the help you need. If there's anything we can do to make things marginally easier, please ask.

Try and embrace it asks, at least for a couple of sessions until you get a better feel for whether it's going to work for you or not. Did you hear back about your assessment from last week yet? What do you still need to do to pass this year?

This. Your world sounds like it came down at the same time the Civ world came down, but then again that was Wish effects and since -when- have those -ever- turned out good? o:) School shooters and psychotics are born from people who don't get the help they need, so it's good to see someone being helped for a change.

I barely remember anything from pre-14 or 15 years old. If -that- is the same thing as what you're suffering, immediately my mind goes "repressed for a good reason."

Also, "deployed"? I guess I didn't know. Where did you end up?

Finish your school first. Since he is on his own we can delay it as long as you want, it won't affect anybody else in the game. :)

You need to learn to embrace schadenfreude, then. :P

Seriously though, don't do that, empathy is important.

Alex Sparo, A city boy, poor of sight, who has learned to manipulate people and make the most of what he, and others, have - Trinity Isles (Run by Mort)
Mehriv Turajin, a Noble Dragonborn Sorcerer sent from his clan because he wasn't dragony enough. - The Wandering Archipelago (Run by Thinks)

Is using WASD that hard? I'll admit that arrow keys are easier, but it's not that hard to switch.

If you have a qwerty keyboard and can't manage the controls it's got right now I'm guessing you'd be left handed with your mouse, else there's something incredibly strange about your use of a keyboard. Well, whatever the case, rather than complaining about it here get over to the Starbound forums and find where you should bring it up there, since it's still in extremely early development and they're making plenty of updates to it.

And hey, you're lucky you didn't have to go through the phase of "It's going to tell you it's crashed, and all outward signs will say it's crashed, but if you wait for a minute or two it may stop doing that."
