Day three report:
The mild headaches continue, even before I run the day's loops. I'm taking that as "processing continues". I emphasize that these headaches are
mild. Pressure rather than pain. I only notice when I'm not focusing on something else, or I happen to think about it.
In the evening I took a brief 30 minute rest/nap. I haven't felt the need for that since earlier in the year when I was commuting an hour each way to work, and that hit on Wednesdays. After that nap, I got up and was functioning normally the rest of the evening.
Slept well. I don't remember any dreams.
Overall so far:
I have always had a facial tic, since I was a teenager. Around 15 years ago I was diagnosed with mild Tourette's - physical tics, inarticulate verbal tics (grunts rather than words). Over the years I have observed that the main trigger for the more obvious tics is remembering some past event where the memory caused a feeling of embarrassment, whether the event remembered was originally embarrassing or not.
Over the last few years these episodes have become less common, maximum 2 per week or so, usually less. Since I started E5 this week, I've had 3 or 4 episodes during the 3 days on of this first cycle.

Stand-alone Universal Detox will focus all its firing power on just that, universal detoxing. The UD module included in E5 will take care of the detox that is needed to reach E5 goals, but its focus is split over the many facets of E5.
You have part of it right, but the conclusion one would draw from what you've said is the reverse of what it should be. Universal Detox is designed to detox everything in all directions; mind, body, emotions, etc. The detox in E5 is not "spread over all the sub-goals of E5" so much as it is narrowed down to them. So in E5 it has a lot more tech and power behind it, and a narrower focus than UD.
Quote:My question specifically was about stand-alone DRS vs the DRS included in OF3. Shannon’s answer was that if my priority was DRS, it was better to use the stand-alone version, even if it was an older generation. And that’s why DRS and UD are still for sale even if they are included in a lot of new programs.
The implied conclusion I get from reading this is that if he wants detox he should stop doing E5 and do UD instead. That would be a very bad move, if that is what you were suggesting. There is a world of difference between E5 and UD, and UD doesn't hold a candle to E5, especially in cases where people need all of what E5 is doing.
So the differences are that UD has a wider focus and will try to detox your body, mind, emotions, etc. all the way back to your birth (mind, emotions) in every way that is possible and necessary. The UD script in E5 will act to detox your mind, body and emotions also, but in the ways that apply to achieving the primary and secondary goals of E5. For example, beliefs that are toxic to your health; emotional patterns that are toxic to your health; and in the case of physical detox, it would apply to helping you clean out your body in terms of toxins that would degrade your health mentally, physically and emotionally. For example, toxins that are causing your nervous system to function at less than it's best so that the other goals of the program gain traction better.
No worries about switching; I'm committed to E5 for the full 8 months. Around March or so I intend to evaluate and start looking at candidates for the next sub.
As far as physical detox from UD-in-E5, a couple of observations.
First, I am in the habit of keeping myself well-hydrated to the extent that my urine is clear or nearly so, except first thing in the morning. Since starting E5, my urine is regularly a more normal yellow.
Second, would physical detox be in scope for TID? For several weeks prior to starting E5, I had diarrhea at least once a week. No other symptoms of any illness.
