Neurobiology

I imagine most, if not all, of you have experienced a time deception. There are a number of hypothesis' mostly related toward autism spectrum disorders. I had an experience playing table tennis years ago when I struck a ball toward my opponents face and instantly time went into slow motion. This often happens to people previous a fearful accident. Can we really contribute such situations to a rapid cognitive process or is there more involved.

Cognitive glimpses of those who preferred to be alone rather than so called normal social acceptance. I find them and temporal illusions fascinating. Perception is deceiving and I think all of us can attest that as valid, of course our individual perceptions are the perfect ones. Levels of illusion normally considered delusional. Fundamental be damned.

It raises questions in my mind concerning the suppression of human consciousness. Such as, are we free or are we enslaved temporarily in a human evolutionary process or is it evolution period. Can we say such individuals as listed below possess an expanded consciousness. Are they the real abnormal? Depends on perception, eh?

Henry Cavendish
Paul Dirac
Albert Einstein
Bill Gates
Thomas Jefferson
Alfred Kinsey
Sir Isaac Newton
Nikola Tesla, just to name a few of many tagged within the Spectrum.

Hypothesis' be damned, eh?

If I am not mistaken, this has to do with how our brain stores information. You remember "traumatic" experiences in greater detail, giving off the perception that time slowed down. I could be wrong, but I remember this from somewhere. lol no pun intended :)

Table tennis was a traumatic experience?

I have no dispute with traumatic experiences being a trigger of time illusion.

I feel compelled to get this in the mix.

There are basic rules and regulations but there are fundamental differences. They aren't equal to fundamental laws governing theories and hypothesis. When we discuss opposing views there are fundamental differences. How individuals deal with those differences determines success or failure.

Fundamental is only the next step on a ladder above basic in my mind at least in this juncture of time. An extremely fundamental difference it seems and that seriously increases human complexity.

Complexity as the result of evolution? Where things can be evolutionary "true", but scientific nonsense, that kind of complexity? I am no quite sure I follow. A fundamental difference can be incredibly complex, as in the opposite of basic. Words and their meanings, sometimes that seems to be the fundamental fault line.

No, not that kind of complexity, but affirmative on a fundamental difference can be incredibly complex.

I'm stepping out of the box from visual processes that traumatic situations only trigger what is considered an illusion of time and other fundamental approaches.

Babe Ruth is a good example of controlled time distortion. Ruth was said to have had ADHD, which within the autism spectrum. He was asked what contributed to his success of hitting the baseball his comment was that he visually slows the ball as it progresses to the plate. He also added that he was fat and didn't want to run. heheh

I just enjoy questioning fundamental beliefs.

Ah ok. Steve Jobs was also said to have a kind of distortion field around him, demanding the impossible on the path to his vision. Alot of interesting super people either suffered trauma or suffered from conditions that would have traumatized others. How you deal with those situations or even, how well you are equipped to deal with those situations, that is what it comes down to.

With that said for every Babe Ruth with ADHD there are thousands of ”losers” with ADHD, the roll of the dice is ruthless. Chuckle :)

Ok, so we can now contribute the fear of running traumatized Ruth into visual deception? Now I need to figure out why my table tennis time distortion from caused from being traumatized. :) I don't agree for a second. Too basic...

Traumatized individuals creating a plethora of super success seems to be a radical and contradictory conclusion with all the failures, too me. Did medication screw their success? I'm for damn sure chuckling.

I'm a mad scientist! :) You know, the method of madness mirrors. Ruthless indeed! I'm philosophizing the psychology.

This reads as needlessly wordy. Also bad writing and unclear sentence structures. C-

Well you know sometimes you think you know where a person is going and then apparently you are all alone and lost.

What a rude interruption by some smert ass with a fancy degree in writing. Who needs? We get enough of the speaking to forward 1 step and backwardly 2 steps. You were saying something about ADHD. Did I understand correctly you are a psycho doctor of some sort? What collage did you read at? Was it one of the gooder schools or community collage? You are interesting.
Good bye.

It is random day because a virus has attacked my wife and think it is contagious. Puff Puff, I believe we might have just experienced something on the spectrum.

I thank my lucky stars I got a C-. I'd hate to fail in a place with such high degree level average such as UP. Writing is only one of CC's many talents.

I attended some gooder sckools and they were full of traumatized mentors. Yes, I admitted to being some sort of psycho doctor. Everyone knows only the psychos can read prescription requests.

Not true_they were badder sckools of hard knocks. I'm thoroughly confused. Pile on!

Better yet, I'll keep an eye on your crony peer review thread. Probably an awful lot of distorted time entries on the horizon planning attacks.

Well I thought I understood what you were saying and I feel invested enough to still want to know, what it is you are saying and what strain it is you have smoked :)

I won't use this viper pit to venomously strike since that is never necessary. It is usually done for a single reason.

Too many kids are drugged forcing the idea of normal and proper behavior, ignoring the risks for convenience. That doesn't mean it is never necessary. Boys will be boys until you drug the crap out of them. When I read the warning labels it reminds me of school shootings.

ADHD medications were updated in 2007 to include warnings about the possibility of cardiovascular risks (sudden death in children and adolescents with structural cardiac abnormalities or other serious heart problems) and risks of adverse psychiatric symptoms (hallucinations, delusional thinking, or mania).

I have been randomly brain storming and fairly certain that the individuals named previously were not drugged during their childhood. So I was attempting to connect the dots in a fun approach until it got squelched. These type kids are bored and their minds are seeking a creative outlet.

The wife was ill and I was a bit bored absent her desire to speak and barrage me with enough words. When this thread went south I went out a purchased a new Harley. Boys will be boys.

I'm getting a double dose today. LULZ
