RE: Shannon's Journal Discussion Thread, Vol. 5 - RTBoss - 04-23-2021 (04-22-2021, 04:32 PM)Rossignol17 Wrote:(04-22-2021, 08:44 AM)Shannon Wrote:Hi Shannon and thanks for your reply. I noticed that I have been feeling mentally and physically sluggish ever sine I started the USLM v4.2. It is not the same kind of tired that I got before from the subs. This is my first sub with a DRS. I did use USLM v4.2 briefly last year, but I had so much chaos going on in my life at the time, that it is hard for me to remember if I got sluggish from it, or if I was just going on adrenaline for a lot of that time. I looked at the DRS description page for clarification :(04-21-2021, 09:58 PM)Rossignol17 Wrote: I started my second run of USLM v4.2 last Sunday and I have completed my first 5 days of listening. I can't remember if I was affected in the same way on my first run, but so far I have noticed that the DRS in USLM v4.2 seems to be canceling out the effects of my morning coffee. I have to get up early every morning and I like the effects of coffee on my brain and body in the AM. Since the DRS prevents these effects (or at least seems to) is it possible to get the USLM v4.2 WITHOUT the DRS ? The tiredness you're feeling is the FRM at work and/or resistance against it (or resistance to any other part of the script). Until that's overcome, you'll be more tired. I'm experiencing it on Aura of Love, just like I did on LTU6. It will be there until it is overcome, and it's usually not that long (for me). When it stops, it's just suddenly gone. I am also not a morning person, and a caffeine fan. Like Shannon said, it isn't the DRS, it's that the latest subs are much more effective, and you're more effectively executing the chemical intoxicant override module (a module that is also in the DRS stand alone, which is why that point is mentioned on the DRS sales page). I noticed my wife and I both drink more caffeine to get the same effect as before. I also need to drink a few more beers to get any sort of buzz from alcohol than I did before. Anyway, please don't give up on USLM 4.2. You need to stick with it to get past what's making you tired. RE: Shannon's Journal Discussion Thread, Vol. 5 - Shannon - 04-23-2021 (04-23-2021, 07:48 AM)Raykon Wrote: Not trying to rush you but I’m trying to figure out my own timeline for starting Natural song and lyric writing, do you have an estimated time frame of when UMS2 with be completed? Once I get past the parts that are taking forever (I'm 1/3rd of a step from finished with those), the job consists of creating the stage scripts from the master script and then building them. I don't know exactly how long it will take to build them. Days? Weeks? Obviously, I am hoping for pays each. I also have to build something I can release this month, and that would seem to be OF v3 by the votes. Of course you guys can't vote for what I didn't mention. But the modeling run to finalize the choice happens today, if the models are stable enough. That I'm not sure how long it will take, again because 5.75.7G is such a new approach. So many things are up in the air right now that I can't say when. I am working as quickly as I can, given the circumstances I have to deal with.

RE: Shannon's Journal Discussion Thread, Vol. 5 - CatMan - 04-23-2021 LONG POST NOVEL WARNING: It's so awesome to see all the interest for OF V3! Hey @Shannon, a few things: 1. You referenced the module for the creation of 5.75.5G some time ago. No comment on it since release. Has it performed as you envisioned? Or will it be worked on for OF V3 and beyond? I admit, after such a post, I felt kinda disappointed on the surface. That was quite a build-up! Referenced post here: https://subliminal-talk.com/Thread-Tune-Me-Up-Extra-Lube-LTU6-5-75G?pid=241480#pid241480 . 2. I forgot to mention intermittent bouts of nausea on OF. I almost never get nausea otherwise, so this was noticeable to see it increase to like 1-2 times a week, requiring OTC to stabilise it. I recall your post about "fear/terror" from needles and getting nausea too, so I understand the rationale for it, just reporting it for possible improvements. I have also had issues again with fapping since starting OF V1, annoyingly. Some old urges for porn, be that softcore or otherwise, have been noted as well. Even just softcore sfw images are noted. More of the same stuff from before, indirectly having interest in women in a "safe" environment. So it seems OF V2 has had yet to breach too much of that in and of itself. It's about halfway through the run to be fair, but just reporting it because I believe the next version needs to dig deeper to get at that stuff down there. It doesn't "feel" like it's going down far enough, not sure how to describe that. Sleep schedule has been insanely hard to keep, or even GET. Virtually impossible, I hate this so much. Even if I stay up super long to try to fix it, somehow I'll get a giant burst of energy again and it'll last way through until the next stupid sleep pattern like before, lol. It's fear of "something", it seems, but who knows. "Covidsomnia" is a thing apparently, so maybe that's complicating it. But I've seen this with subs before in some cases, so due to the goal in mind with this one, it seemed plausible it'd upset my sleep. Heart seems to pump hard and fast it feels like it's going nuts often on it, I get like tinges here and there, weird feelings. I remember with OF 5G I had to stop the sub, due to what my heart was doing when listening to it. That's NEVER happened to me before or since. Heart issues are in my family, even young men, so it's been a concern. Nothing with me specifically, just mentioning history and the thought process and why the concern surfaced about this. It's a potent reaction to the sub again on an OF sub for me, worth noting. I've noticed lately I've been consuming more and more "pop", you yanks call it "soda", lol. I was good at cutting it down for a decent while, now for a little awhile it's crept up. Maybe the caffeine is aggravating that issue with the heart, and the sleep schedule on some level as well. So maybe the detox module is partially involved in this circular pattern. I love the idea of the detox module, to be clear. Maybe it needs more muscle, I don't know. Just reporting my experience with things. But I know full well what previous OFs did to my heart, so I'm thinking it goes beyond the detox module mostly... Hunger pangs making weight loss much harder has been noted too. This is very frustrating. I hope something can be tuned here. I lost weight years ago and have been so proud about losing 65 pounds! It really did a lot for my confidence and self esteem physically. Which I have needed if I am to cross the next bridge to execution of DMSI with women someday. I mentioned a few of these before, but figured I'd compile them with others I noticed in advance of the new program in case they can be of benefit. 3. I get strong heat sensation on the sub when listening often. It centers around my "deep torso", it feels like the heat is deep inside my torso, somehow. It also is strong in my throat, mouth and nostrils, and right arm. Sometimes my legs. I feel the heat billowing off, it's like smoke in a sense. I like to amuse myself by breathing out and feeling the heat in my nose go out. It's weird, haha. I've had "heat sensations" in a small way before on subs, but it was only when initially listening for the first night or two maybe. This has been 8+ months of OF V1 and OF V2, and they still occur often while listening, and even when not. Was worth noting. Is that the DRS you speak of? Will it be upgraded for OF V3 as well? I suspect it could be helping me heat up to lose more weight, lol. I tend to see huge drops in weight at times, when I'm able to resist the hunger pangs. Indirect weight loss ability now for this scripting, lol. Amusing. 4. I also get random massive exhaustion hits on this. It's weird, not as often as "being forced awake" and ruining my sleep schedule. But they still happen. Was worth reporting for sure, as I know you're working to fix that going forward. 5. Could you give us a breakdown on what will be upgraded in the new OF V3? I saw changes to FRM mentioned, that's fantastic to see! 5.75.5G to 5.75.7G or more, and generically what that means improvements-wise. DRS? Negative side effects listed above? The 5.75.5G module? Etc.? 6. Dreams are often a bit hard to relate back to "overcoming fear". I don't seem to recall many if all in general during the whole run, oddly. They seem to either have seemingly nothing to do with the OF goal, or are kinda observational "wouldn't it be nice if" blue sky types. I guess the second one is showing me what's possible for me if I remove the fear behind whatever it is or something or another possibility, I don't know. Still though, the dreams are hard to relate to the sub a lot somehow for me. I don't seem to recall many if any, "scary" "fear" dreams on this, which is what you'd assume would be the norm on the sub, lol. Reminds me of DMSI/SM3, I didn't really get "girl/sex dreams" on those. Strange! Just reported it, even though I assume it's because I have to work on "preamble" stuff with fear before those dreams can happen? I don't know, sounds weird that the dreams aren't even really happening in relation to the sub. So the girls aren't even in my dreams, unlike the saying "in your dreams", LOL. Thanks for reading my novel Shannon, lol. Looking forward to hearing more about OF V3. It'll be a winner also.

I recall your post about "fear/terror" from needles and getting nausea too, so I understand the rationale for it, just reporting it for possible improvements. That would be an indication that OF is touching on things that scare you so much that it makes you nauseous. Very close to the direct fear of death.

It doesn't "feel" like it's going down far enough, not sure how to describe that. No doubt your subconscious is fighting hard to prevent the fear from being removed fast enough to make progress in certain areas. It's not that the next version needs to dig deeper. It's that the next version has to somehow deal with your subconscious trying to preserve the fear and causes for fear better and faster than the cooperative parts are able to deal with and process the fear and causes for the fear in ways that erase it. It will naturally go down all the way, as long as something doesn't find a way to stop it. Honestly, I have no idea how your subconscious is able to do a lot of what it manages to do.

But I've seen this with subs before in some cases, so due to the goal in mind with this one, it seemed plausible it'd upset my sleep. Sleep being avoided so that the subconscious doesn't have too deal with direct processing? Or that it can wear out the parts doing the processing? Hmmm.

So basically all of this tells me that FRM and OF v2 is close to doing the job but you're subconsciously finding ways to interfere with the process as it gets to the real nitty gritty. There is definitely serious struggle for control going on here. That is a good sign, it means the program is definitely on the right track. We need something more though. Quote:3.

Indirect weight loss ability now for this scripting, lol. Amusing. It is common for me to feel "heat" emanating from my body when I am projecting a powered aura strongly; last night I was so warm that GF couldn't snuggle as we were going to sleep, and I had to have the covers off even though it was the right temperature. So it very likely is the aura, but who knows. I haven't heard of it being expressed in parts of the body only. Quote:4. I also get random massive exhaustion hits on this. It's weird, not as often as "being forced awake" and ruining my sleep schedule. But they still happen. Was worth reporting for sure, as I know you're working to fix that going forward. That of course will be what happens when the struggle is relatively evenly matched and it is two or more opposing parts using up your energy in a very rapid manner. Quote:5.

The FRM will be upgraded. There will be changes and upgrades to other aspects of the configuration and build settings as well. It doesn't sound like much, but that's because I can't tell you the details of what's happening. This post will help me understand what needs to be added/adjusted/upgraded in the FRM. Quote:6.

Look at your expectations and assumptions here. You're expecting scary dreams. Maybe there are none, and maybe they're being forgotten. Maybe the dreams you remember are being decided upon by your fearful subconscious? You bring up some interesting points in this post. Useful reporting. Thank you.

Everything ok. I also deal with “beasts” regularly. In my experience, stand-alone DRS is the way to go. The good thing about DRS is that it either stops them or flips them right away. If they are extremely hurtful and aggressive, it knocks them out. Maybe you could use DRS when they are around and the attacks are stronger and AOL at other times.

I don’t own AOL but I can’t wait to run a one-loop-a-day program. I wish IYE was that short - listening time longer than 7 hours is challenging for me. I had the same problem with the longest stage of LTU6. A listening time shorter than 3 hours would also allow me to listen to Hybrid, which I like a lot but can’t handle during sleep.

Everyone goes through this and it isn't long term. It goes away. If you need your caffeine to have more of an effect just add some tyrosine to it until you're back to normal.

I got USLM v4.2 as a free upgrade since I previously purchased v4, but I would be willing to pay for a new version without the DRS. Shannon, is this possible ? If not, I will probably go back to using USLM v3, which has always given me great results.
I'm not sure why you would equate the Directional Reflection Shield with cancellation of caffeine. The issue here is almost certainly the module that causes your body to override chemically induced state shifting in order to put you in, and keep you in, the ideal state of awareness in which to achieve the goals of the program. I can't rebuild it without that. Your best bet is going to be to try waiting until an hour or two after you've had your morning coffee to play the program, instead of playing it at night.
Hi Shannon and thanks for your reply. I noticed that I have been feeling mentally and physically sluggish ever sine I started the USLM v4.2. It is not the same kind of tired that I got before from the subs. This is my first sub with a DRS. I did use USLM v4.2 briefly last year, but I had so much chaos going on in my life at the time, that it is hard for me to remember if I got sluggish from it, or if I was just going on adrenaline for a lot of that time. I looked at the DRS description page for clarification :
Recreational drug use, as well as drugs that are not typically thought of as being drugs (caffeine, nicotine, alcohol, etc.) will be affected and you may find they become significantly less enjoyable. This may also affect natural substances/supplements that shift state.
I don't smoke or drink very much, so I wasn't concerned with that. However, I am NOT a morning person and I do find coffee to be very helpful in the morning. I only drink 1 cup and I usually feel really good after that. This past week, I have been feeling like I am just drinking water instead of coffee. I have tried playing the sub at different times of the day and it has not made any difference. My gut feels different too, and I feel like I am not getting the usual amount of energy after taking my vitamins.
I know that you originally had planned to have the DRS be an add-on sub that one could use with another sub. If it is going to be included in all the new subs, I am not sure that I will want to use them. I really wish we had the option of using it strictly as an add-on. Maybe my system is more sensitive than others, but it's taking away from my normally great energy, and that is not how I want to feel.
I am going to re-run USLM v3 again. For me, it has been the absolute best sub I have ever used.
The tiredness you're feeling is the FRM at work and/or resistance against it (or resistance to any other part of the script). Until that's overcome, you'll be more tired. I'm experiencing it on Aura of Love, just like I did on LTU6. It will be there until it is overcome, and it's usually not that long (for me). When it stops, it's just suddenly gone.
I am also not a morning person, and a caffeine fan. Like Shannon said, it isn't the DRS, it's that the latest subs are much more effective, and you're more effectively executing the chemical intoxicant override module (a module that is also in the DRS stand alone, which is why that point is mentioned on the DRS sales page). I noticed my wife and I both drink more caffeine to get the same effect as before. I also need to drink a few more beers to get any sort of buzz from alcohol than I did before.
Anyway, please don't give up on USLM 4.2. You need to stick with it to get past what's making you tired.

Once again... Directional Reflection Shield is a module, and the state shift override is a module. They have nothing to do with one another. Directional Reflection Shield is also a stand alone program, which has the state shift override active as a module. DRS isn't the issue here. You're not happy with the chemical state shift override module doing it's job.
That module is designed to keep you in the ideal state of awareness in which to achieve the program goals. If caffeine takes you out of that state, then your body will override the state shifting effects and put you back into the ideal state of awareness for achieving the goals of the program. It's the same for alcohol, nicotine, and any other drug that shifts your state of awareness. It doesn't affect anything but your state of awareness; the drug is still in your system doing its thing. If the only thing the drug does is shift your state of awareness, then the state shift override module will cancel out that drug to the best of its ability. Vitamins and nutrition won't be negatively affected, and neither will medications. The script is designed to shut down when it is a prescription medication doing the state shifting, so that the medication takes precedence and does what it's supposed to do.
I said that some of what you describe sounds like resistance. It is quite possible for you to be experiencing state shift override and resistance at the same time. I'm not saying you are resisting, I'm saying that some of what you decribed is suggestive of resistance.
If you don't like the effects of the state shift override module, then your best bet is to go back to USLM 3.0, because I am done building USLM for a long time. I have to move to other things. Other people simply compensate by ingesting enough of whatever drug they want to be affected by to override the state shift override, and I'm not hearing complaints about it otherwise. If a module designed to help you guys get better results from the programs is a problem, then with enough votes I'll be glad to remove it from the skeleton script in the future.
RE: Shannon's Journal Discussion Thread, Vol. 5 - CatMan - 04-24-2021 Hey Shannon! Great exchange the other day. I'm glad my post could help. That's reassuring for things going forward. Keep in mind I've seen things already on the sub, it isn't like it's nothing but negative side effects. For example, as I stated before, I removed the numbers of all females from my phone and let them contact me first over time. If they did, great. If not, I have not reached out. Some have, some haven't. They have seemed surprised I did it, which is amusing. I guess guys don't do that. Now I don't feel like crap when I get a non-response for whatever reason, and don't feel like chasing any contact now. I suppose that's a plus, it's something I wasn't able to do ever, I'd always be pining and chasing somehow I admit. Trying to "make something happen", which never works. Also, the sub is making certain non girl/sex "way off/impossible things" seems much closer to my reality. That's interesting. Procrastination is a serious problem to put some of those things into action though annoyingly...hopefully procrastination can be fixed somehow with the next version. Very annoying problem, like an "invisible wall" between something you really want and you. Not sure why or how it's happening. I saw your post before about procrastination being a highly motivated attempt to avoid being told what to do. But I'm not sure how to handle it if it's coming from an internal source, something one wants to do themself. It's likely fear in the end so hopefully you can get OF V3 to address this. But I'm just referencing your older post to someone about this as I found it interesting. Just wanted to confirm because you mentioned in an earlier post that you'd decide which program to make after some model run. I assume OF V3 is next. I don't know what your alternates are like you said, but a confirmation would be nice. It'd be amazing to have it sometime in May, wow! How exciting. Thanks a lot, Shannon!

I still haven't had a chance yet to finalize the next sub to be built, but it's down to two options. If it's OF v3, you are looking at a VERY different program between v2 and v3 because of the limits that 5.75.7G removes. |
