https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bgC6ZLE8QhY&ab_channel=KatiMorton

“The opposite of addiction is not sobriety. The opposite of addiction is connection.”Johann Hari’s

Declarations:

“I choose as an act of my will to loose all fear, all deception, all despair, all confusion from my soul in Jesus name. I take authority over my mind body, spirit, soul(=mind, will emotions) and bind to me all God has for me power, justice and his perfect shalom.” Shalom means: wholeness, completeness, soundness, health, safety and prosperity. AMEN. who does not want that?

Quotes:

Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional. Say you’re running and you think, ‘Man, this hurts, I can’t take it anymore. The ‘hurt’ part is an unavoidable reality, but whether or not you can stand anymore is up to the runner himself.”― Haruki Murakami,

“Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.” —Viktor Frankl

SELF-CAre from Sunita Osborn:

Here are 5 ways to start caring for the six major domains of your life: physical, professional, relational, emotional, psychological, and spiritual.

• Physical Domain: What is one small, tangible thing you could introduce this week that would improve your sleep, nutrition, or body movement?
   

• Professional Domain: Consider how/if you do anything to wind down after work. What could you do differently to help you transition from work to home life? (If you are not currently working, consider how you could wind down from any transition you experience in your day such as when your child goes down for the night, or after you get home from running errands). Gena How about how do you talk yourself into or through doing a undesired task, prep for a difficult appointment, chore, difficult conversation with someone, deal with a difficult day, boredom.
   

• Relational Domain: Think of one time-management strategy you use in your life to make the most of your energy (i.e., reminders, smartphone apps, a calendar diary). What is one way you could utilize your existing time-management strategies to better maintain your relationships?
   

• Emotional Domain: Consider one aspect of your life that you deeply enjoy, from your favorite hobby to your favorite people. Choose one thing you could do to immerse yourself in this experience a little more deeply.
   

• Psychological and Spiritual Domains: As you reflect on what topics or practices interest or challenge you, identify at least two life classes you want to sign up for in the next year.

• Gena in the Spiritual. Pray and ask God to show you where he was in the trauma? or Just ask God for confirmation. He can say yes, no and WAIT. that is hardest so no or not now may be his answer he is not a vending machine. What is God calling you to this year? How are you continuing to use your “calling”? your “gifting.” I believe everyone has a God given talent. They do not remain stagnant. I say Go and Grow….be amazing. What is your super power. Refuse to stay stuck. To stay the same is regression. Change is inevitable.

• A potential protective effect of smoking and of nicotine on SARS-CoV-2 infection has been noted. Until recently [39], no firm conclusions could be drawn from studies evaluating the rates of current smokers in Covid-19. All these studies [40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48], although reporting low rates of current smokers, ranging from 1.4 % to 12.5 %, did not take into account the main potential confounders of smoking including age and sex. In the study that two of us are reporting [1], the rates of current smoking remain below 5 % even when main confounders for tobacco consumption, i.e. age and sex, in- or outpatient status, were considered. Compared to the French general population, the Covid-19 population exhibited a significantly weaker current daily smoker rate by 80.3 % for outpatients and by 75.4 % for inpatients. Thus, current smoking status appears to be a protective factor against the infection by SARS-CoV-2. Although the chemistry of tobacco smoke is complex, these data are consistent with the hypothesis that its protective role takes place through direct action on various types of nAChRs expressed in neurons, immune cells (including macrophages), cardiac tissue, lungs, and blood vessels.

  Mechanisms engaged in Covid-19 as nAChR disease might be tentatively suggested. There is structural evidence supporting the hypothesis that SARS-CoV-2 virus is a nicotinic agent. The recently reported X-ray structure of the RABV glycoprotein (G) ectodomain [49] shows that the region corresponding to the neurotoxin-like peptide is exposed at the G surface, in agreement with the fact that this region is part of the major antigenic region II of RABV [50]. The recently published cryo-EM structure of the trimeric SARS-CoV-2 spike (S) protein [51, 52] revealed an insertion with respect to that of SARS-CoV-1, in a loop that is disordered in the reported structure, and which has a polybasic sequence that corresponds to a furin site. Importantly, this exposed loop of the SARS-CoV-2 S protein also contains a motif that is homologous to that of snake neurotoxins and to the RABV neurotoxin-like region (Figure 1). This observation supports the hypothesis that SARS-CoV-2 virus itself is a nAChR blocker.

  Figure 1.

  The neurotoxin motifs. Amino acid sequence alignment of the motifs found in toxins from snakes of the Ophiophagus (cobra) and Bungarus genera, in G from three RABV strains and in S from SARS-CoV-2.

  Nicotine may be suggested as a potential preventive agent against Covid-19 infection. Both the epidemiological/clinical evidence and the in silico findings may suggest that Covid-19 infection is a nAChR disease that could be prevented and may be controlled by nicotine. Nicotine would then sterically or allosterically compete with the SARS-CoV-2 binding to the nAChR. This legitimates the use of nicotine as a protective agent against SARS-CoV-2 infection and the subsequent deficits it causes in the CNS. Thus, in order to prevent the infection and the retro-propagation of the virus through the CNS, we plan a therapeutic assay against Covid-19 with nicotine (and other nicotinic agents) patches or other delivery methods (like sniffing/chewing) in hospitalized patients and in the general population.

  In conclusion, we propose, and try to justify, the hypothesis that nAChRs play a critical role in the pathophysiology of SARS-CoV-2 infection and as a consequence propose nicotine and nicotinic orthosteric and/or allosteric agents as a possible therapy for SARS-CoV-2 infection. Interestingly, ivermectin, which has been recently shown to inhibit the replication of SARS-CoV-2 in cells in vitro [53], is a positive allosteric modulator of α7 nAChR [54]. The nicotinic hypothesis might be further challenged by additional clinical studies and by experimental observations determining whether SARS-CoV-2 physically interacts with the nAChR in vitro, for instance by electrophysiological recordings, high resolution EM and by animal model studies. Further work should also specify the still enigmatic relationships between ACE2 and nAChRs in the nervous system.

  One should not forget that nicotine is a drug of abuse [55] responsible for smoking addiction. Smoking has severe pathological consequences and remains a serious danger for health. Yet under controlled settings, nicotinic agents could provide an efficient treatment for an acute infection such as Covid-19. “

• Making choices difficult choices is what each of us must do every day. I just read an journal some might appreciate as you enter this fall season. https://www.jbc.org/article/S0021-9258(23)01735-0/fulltext “ SARS-CoV-2 spike ectodomain targets α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptors “ near the end of the article “Thus, current smoking status appears to be a protective factor against the infection by SARS-CoV-2. Although the chemistry of tobacco smoke is complex, these data are consistent with the hypothesis that its protective role takes place through direct action on various types of nAChRs expressed in neurons, immune cells (including macrophages), cardiac tissue, lungs, and blood vessels. “

They use the nacisistic supply what do you have that then need so they cultivate the realationship, how that benefits them. The characteristiecs self, goals setting, empathy, intimacy. Unable to self-regulate. These things make them deeply resentful. Thank you Dr. D.

• THERIAN:

• praying for those who struggle with identity confusion Be it gender or species. What is a therian?
  “Therian” is short for “therianthrope”. It means a person who identifies integrally as a nonhuman being, such as a wolf, polar bear, or even earthworm. While the two communities historically emerged separately, it has a lot of overlap with the “otherkin” community, which includes any individual that identifies as nonhuman (e.g. as an elf, dragon, or even fictional character). VILTE BALIUTAVICIUTE, MA, LPC

• What is a Fury?
  ”Furry is a fandom, just like any other. It includes anyone that enjoys the art of anthropomorphic animals. Some furries might dress up in costumes or attend gatherings, just as some readers of this blog may have painted their face for a sports event, or worn cosplay for a convention. Of course, there is overlap- a community where self-expression as an animal is welcomed will attract people who identify as nonhuman, but most furries identify as fully human.” VILTE BALIUTAVICIUTE, MA, LPC
