Chimeric people don't have multiple personalities, they simply have DNA of two different people inside them, sometimes the second DNA is isolated in one or a few specific organs or areas of the body.

Things are more interesting when you're a Chimeric but also can be unpleasant. You can end up with some autoimmune disorders because your body doesn't really like being invaded by a second DNA.

You have to remember when you're having sleep paralysis that you ARE breathing at your natural sleep rate (which is slow and steady) but when you begin to have sleep paralysis and you are terrified your sympathetic nervous system (the part of your subconscious that controls your fight-or-flight response) wants to increase your rate and depth of breathing. Obviously it doesn't work because you are, well, paralyzed. Next time just try to remember that and focus on something else like getting a finger to move. I also love my sleep paralysis. However for me it is no longer like a living nightmare. I know I'm going to have it because I feel this electrifying buzzing sensation throughout my body starting in my hands that slowly spreading. It's almost like I can feel the chemical exchange that is happening as my body becomes paralyzed and I start to feel like I'm floating. It's really really relaxing.

I agree with you whole heatedly. My son has suffered serious bullying. He's expressed to me wanting to hurt other people for the bullying. I'm terrified that someday without proper direction he could be that kid at school with a gun. So we lock them up. He has no access to the safe where they are. Doesn't even know where the safe is. I take him to therapy 2 times a week. Him and I talk all the time on the subject of bullying, how to manage his anger when it happens, and best courses of action in deferent situations. We talk a lot. I check his backpack every day before school. And we talk about the fallout of student violence at school. But there needs to be more. I recently went to a school meeting where they discussed how anti bullying assembly's generally work the opposite of the intended plan. I'd like to start an anti bully program at school and do things like sending letters to parents about securing guns, checking backpacks, and having honest open discussions with their students. I also think every school should have mandatory bully meetings. So if your kid is caught being a bully the parent, the kid, and the victim kid and parents can all get together to discuss the issues that lead to bullying. It will help us all be held accountable for the actions of our students.

I hope I'm not too late to have my question answered. What steps do you think as parents we can take to prevent our children from bullying/ be bullied that it leads to something like this? And what measures do you think school can take?

I bought my condo for 20k. It took 15k to fix up. Plus a year of time. Was worth it.
