Well. Good news. I’ve been getting better. Slowly but surly. I was wrong about the diagnosis. It was not schizophrenia, it was psychosis, which is temporary. I believe that things that lead to me going to the hospital was a crash and burn from allowing my mind to be a genii pig for this thought-form entity experiment. The pills I got never stopped the effects I got from the abilities I gained while participating in this experiment. Lots of different things have happened to my belief system over the past months, but during those times, I’m picking up on what’s real and what’s not. Like, what’s been in my head, what was deception, and what was real in the spirit world. I’ve pretty much hit a point of no return. I found that there are dangers in experimenting with things of the occult and new age practices and I’ve been learning things the hard way. But I’m pulling through. I recently finished taking meditation classes and now taking clairvoyant classes. The practices I learned from them has been helping me learn other things. Like protecting myself. I’d like to thank the friends I met here and online for sticking around and your support. Things still are only getting started.
I don't believe in supernatural stuff myself but that doesn't mean that I go around insulting people that do.
As it goes: if you don't have anything good to say, don't say anything at all.
The guy is delusional.
How would you feel if someone came and insulted you for something you believe in?
As for CircleA61, hope you get things figured out, man. Your art AND your drumming are still both amazing, no matter how out of shape you feel mentally. Also glad to hear it's not schizophrenia.

I'm all for the scientific method.
And that is something you probably should learn too.
So tell me, after insulting someone over the internet, can you feel your testicles swell?
It's just what I do.
They hatin
Arc, ya da biggest douchebag dis side a' de islands.
Which I'm not really from, just hoping to make Circle smile. Stay strong bro, things'll look better once the dark cloud passes. Keep your chin up high. ^_^

That's majorly whacked.
And I certainly don't want fans.
Social security, medicare IS good. It's what TAXES are for.
And what's to say his problems, left untreated, won't get worse? What if he gets 'convinced' by 'spirits' to kill someone, huh?
Do you have any evidence that Circle A61 has ever been motivated to violence by his condition? I have seen lots of consensual sex in his art, but no violence.
And every violent unstable mental person is initially 'okay'
Canadian patients also live longer on average, and wait times are only 2 hours longer on average than the US. Furthermore, Canadians pay less than half of what an American pays on health care, on average, including the taxes they pay specifically into the collective medical system.
There is plenty wrong with the US system, though, starting with effective elimination of international competition in drug prices; Congressmen get LOTS of contributions from pharmaceutical companies. Due to massive overregulation, the average US doctor now spends more time on paperwork for regulatory compliance than on seeing patients. Not good for either the patients or the doctors...
As far as international competition on drug prices, this is largely because there is no cap on profit allowed for pharmeceutical products in the U.S., whereas in most other countries there are. I believe in Canada you're not allowed more than a 200% markup on the price of most medications.
Overall, Canada has lower mortality rates, comparable rates of treatment, equal access to medical treatment for all, and pays far less for it - an average per capita per year of Canada $2,163 versus US $4,887 in 2001. A healthier, longer-lived population in turn works greater hours, which in turn means more funding back into that same system.
If you would like more information on this, please check out the W.H.O. 2003 report, or their most recent, the 2006 report, for updated but largely identical figures.
As with a Ouiji Board, you could be opeining yourself up to all kinds of troubles - not all of which are from the 'spirit world'.
Make sure you know your own boundries and always try to deliniate what is 'spiritual' from what may be part of a medical disorder.
Overall, just keep a good head on your shoulders and don't stretch yourself or your beleifs too far.
Good luck!
D.O.P.R
I like to be skeptical about anything supernatural. I approach magic and the spirit realm like how mythbusters handles urban legend. Its been a hard journey to get along even the small distance I have; I tend to deny a lot of things on account of my sanity. But there have been undeniable proofs on my part, including even a piece of physical evidence, that has led me to Believe. Obviously I could fabricate said evidence or just lie about it, so its a moot point, and I'm really not trying to convince anyone of anything. I just want to give you some peace of mind.
I can't really say I know you or that I have the full story, after all your just a person over the internet, and could be making all this up for kicks.
BUT, always remember the proofs. If people you have NEVER given details about Krotsgier to, or the thoughtform experiment, etc, and they somehow "coincidentally" begin to manifest the same things. Thats a sign.
Hang in there. :)
