Woo impressive. Really.
I think I forgot most of it though
Might not remember but you did it that’s quite an accomplishment.
Thank you. The craziest thing is that I did the last two years of my masters partially psychotic because I didn’t think I needed to take medication for sz. Landed me in the hospital eventually.
Did you get a career out of the degree? Definitely understand if you’re not working ,we all get that.
“I believe the title was something like magnetic catalysis and chiral symmetry breaking in a positron electron plasma.”
I think you’d have to be at least just a little psychotic to understand that! lol!
Well there are job online that ask for a degrees and some of them mention physics. They have a wide range of subjects and fields that they go into. Job titles like quantitative analyst, mechanical engineer, data scientist, etc. The biggest problem is that many jobs are asking for people that already have experience. My most recent job was a military contracting company. The only problem is that they required a clearance and for some reason mine took too long to get. So I only worked there for 2 weeks. Although that one I got more because of my military background though. The most I’ve gotten is that a few of the government jobs I’ve applied to said they are moving on to the next phase in the hiring process. A heads up for anyone trying to get a government job is that sometimes they take half a year or more to get back to you. At least that is how is was for my census bureau job.
Yeah it involves crazy ideas like particles gaining mass in a strong magnetic field and increasing their electrical susceptibility to describe a kind of super conductivity in neutron stars.
My delusion has had both positive and negative aspects. I believe I am gifted with all skills and knowledge because I am connected to Collective Consciousness. This makes me the scientific/atheist ‘Savior’. Freaky and overwhelimg at first but then; What a cool thought! I even came up with the idea for the brain study I am in (cuz I am so smart ) and then was hypnotized to forget my gift and the study. The negative/paranoia is that, as part of the study, ‘they’ are going to terrorize me or sacrifice me mentally or physically so they can watch my brain and behavior. It’s absolutely terrifying. I still battle the whole delusion so I’m paranoid everyday over it but meds and therapy keep me functional.
It’s been a while since I was balls out delusional, but if I remember right, the hallucinations served as a counter-balance to my internal sense of self-worth. If I thought life was hopeless and futile, they’d promise gratification right around the corner if I played by their ambiguous and ever-changing rules. If I was feeling to high on myself, they’d be negative and “out to get me.”
Now the hallucinations I do have are largely neutral in content, but because they’re often triggered by my loser neighbors, just the sound of their voices or the hallucinations they elicit infuriates me. Some people are just bad people and you have to accept that and move on with your life. Easier said than done sometimes.
