I...I'm disturbed at how attractive I find DeVille. Like, I would totally be his lacky, no matter how many puppies I had to bring him, and illustrations aren't meant to make me question my morals.

My weird parking habit 5 comments

My car is always acting up in some way, except for whenever we're around other saturns, then it drives perfectly. I think that's why I love my car so much. We both kind of suck at real life, but pretend everything is great around our family.

Don't feel bad 1st guest, sometimes commenters think they're being charmingly snarky when in reality their being raging a-holes. Most people on this site are actually quite nice though, so don't be discouraged.

It can happen to anyone. Many people have episodes once or twice, only a small percentage have it chronically

Don't worry, chickiecat, the rest of your brain will wake up if you are in any actual danger. Only a very few of the most extreme cases have ever resulted in fatalities and those were due to heart attacks caused by panic, and even then that was only after years and years of constsnt episodes which weakened the heart.

(Sorry, I know this is long) Without the ability to rationalize what is actually happening, your brain interprets the surge of adrenaline as response to a real and immediate threat to your life and actually creates something to be afraid of. Many who suffer from sleep paralysis report having a demon hold them down. When it happens to me for some reason I am convinced that someone is actively trying to cut my head off. Regardless of the hallucination, the one constant in sleep paralysis is the all-consuming terror. Fortunately, there are some treatments that have yeilded results in at least controlling the paralysis. First is melatonin supplements for less severe cases, and for the more severe, behavioral therapy. The best way to avoid episodes is to check your sleep hygiene, go to bed and wake up at the same time every day, and exercise. (Side note, if you can calm yourself down enough to slip back into sleep, an almost impossible feat, you will slip right into a lucid dream)

Sleep paralysis has to do with a deficiency in melatonin, a necessary chemical for normal, healthy sleep. When your melatonin is too low a baser part of your brain is more susceptible to waking up. In REM your body naturally releases a chemical to keep your body paralyzed so you do not act out your dreams (which sleepwalkers tend to have lower levels of). When the baser part of your brain wakes up during REM the first thing it wants to do is move your body, kind of like it's checking to make sure everything is ok before going back to sleep. When the body is unable to respond to the impulses telling it to move the brain interprets this as danger, causing the fight or flight impulse to release adrenaline. Remember though, your higher functions are still sleeping with the rest of your brain, so you are aware of what is going on but unable to rationalize with any kind of logic, much like when nonsense happens in a dream and you just roll with it.

That is a genuine load of bull. "False arrousal" is NO ONES fault except for the person who gets arroused. Some people like to screw sheep, but you'll never hear anyone say, "well, that sheep shouldn't have looked at him all seductive-like"

I love the changing dialog about rape and rape prevention. Things like this need to be seen to put an end to victim blaming. According to recent statistics at least 90% of rapes go unreported because either the victim thinks no one will believe them, or that it was some how their fault.

Since bullying 45 comments

The most common reason kids dont stand up for themselves is they believe that they are completely alone in their pain, that no one else is going through this, and that they need to 'toughen up' and handle it themselves. Anti-bullying campaigns are not encouraging kids to be victims, they're showing them that it's ok to need help. In a society that seems to value self reliance over everything else, making it socially acceptable to ask for help paramount.

Love Johnny Depp, totally disagree with the quote. No one has a finite amount of love, and you can love new people without diminishing the love you have for others. Truly being in love with someone doesn't mean you might not love someone else too, it means you choose to be faithful regardless of new feelings for new people. On that note, sherwally, I choked on my tea when I read your comment, awesome pun.
