Shannon's Journal Discussion Thread, Vol. 5

[UniversalMan]

Ok, @Shannon I need your advice...
I am listening OFv1. 6 months and 4 days now, schedule is 6 days on 2 days off (have done adjustments in listening schedule at some point), what happens is I am ok  on the days on, but as soon the first day off comes I start to feel like crap  physically and mentally, and some stupid mortal fears come to surface, and also feeling like I will vomit.

Should I try with no days off for some time?

So what that means is, it's working, but there's not enough pressure.  I suggest you drop to zero to one day off, and notch up the volume a bit, and add a loop if you can add another loop.  Otherwise, we are looking for ways to increase pressure/exposure enough to overcome those resistant fears that it can override while it's playing, but are not being cleared out.

Thank you Shannon...so...

Will try 7 loops, 6 days on 1 day off (was 6 loops, 6 days on, 2 days off)....as for the volume, can not do higher than 13/15 on my android phone, cause higher than that starts distorting...cracking sound (listening ultrasonic all the time).

maybe I could change the format to hybrid if the problem does not solve after few cycles?

It will still work if it's triggering speaker distortion, I have tested that to death with my cheap phones this last few years.  But you may find that it's very annoying to listen to your phone crackle while you're trying to fall asleep.

Hybrid is an option also.

Ok, will experiment with both after a few cycles of the schedule written in my previous post, thank you.

Hi @Shannon ....

So, today is 8 months and 8 days that I am on OF, the 8-th month I did straight loops 31 days on (7 loops, ultrasonic, vol. 14/15) , than 2 days off and 5 days on,and I think I am gonna finish with OF now, and gonna need a couple of days to see if that specific fears resurface again....other than that,the specific fears I mentioned in earlier posts, the rest seems good

(It is amazing that in that one month that I was listening straight I did not felt any draining from the sub!!! I had ups and downs, at times I felt energized, at times drained, but I do not think the draining's were sub related, It was I would say environmental)

I am thinking in starting MHS next... and I have two questions for you @Shannon...
First: how many day's I need to take off before starting MHS or I can start it straight away?
Second: can I combine MHS with one or two loops of DRS?
Thank you in advance for replying

Hope you are doing great
