At times i can sleep 3hours and be awake like 48hours.
The other times i sleep 18hours and only be awake about 3hours.

Its random. But normaly i sleep about 5-6hours

doesn't anyone feel just a little sympathy for a lady who gets to live 3 days out of every 550?

I feel sorry for her, but at least shes awake now. Interesting that they dont try anyway to get people out of these states. Guess its safer to leave them be.

Still, not the worst case of unconsciousness or paralyses.

missed the part where she regressed.

there really isn't anything they can do short of zapping the brain (not exactly safe)

Not really, you could try to flood the body with endorphins and adreneline. Might cause her to lose a few brain cells and unbalance brain chemistry but I dont think she woud regress as quickly then.

what about LOTS of coffie? instead of the normal water in the small bags. Replace that with coffie and watch her running around like never before.

Any of you ever tryed some coffien pills? one pill is the same as a few cop of coffie. But i eat 3!!! they makes you wanna do ALOT of things at the same time

I used to use them when i was boxing, but i felt it was some sort of drug, and stopped using them. well at the boxing club

AND they help burning fat so a few pills before a running trip

even worse...

it would destabalize her, her body would probably go into shock, and it would be more than a "few" brain cells
also when you flood like that you're body gets addicted. it literally shuts down without a constant supply after, and thats simply too expensive.

Not really, just chocolate and coffe, or tobacco. Plus, I said 'flood' as in, give enough to make her body produce above average amounts. And your wrong about complete distabalization, or else we wouldnt have depression meds.

depression meds don't have a hundred thousandth the concentration needed to boost somebody out of a coma...

but who has elementary (and elementary is damn complex) knowledge of the facts.

if you're talking a booster, it won't be enough to get her out of a coma. its not like jumpstarting a car.

Really now, where does this amazing knowledge come from. If its from public schooling then it is most likely 'non-complex', I dont think you 'americans' even have proper teachers for this kind of science. Maybe in college but not high school.

Actually, shes not in a compelete coma, she still retains consciousness which means that her brain is still releasing enough chemicals to keep her thinking. Meaning that a small boost would just increase the process, sooner or later(hopefully sooner) the brain would redirect the rest into her body awakening other processes.

our obvious lack of good education.

then how come I've always got a well supported and coherent arguement when all I hear from your superior Euro-Russian education is "your education sucks"

come back when you prove it.

Comas still have active reception and thinking processes (not braindead people, but lesser comas) the only difference (if you read carefully) is that her eyes remain open and she can see the things going on around her.
its a persistant vegitative state, codeword for a wavering coma.
Meaning that a small boost would just increase the process, sooner or later(hopefully sooner) the brain would redirect the rest into her body awakening other processes.

again, thats expensive out the ass to have so much (you would need way more than antidepressants) and it would at best tone her muscles. to cause your body to completely redirect its chemical balance you need a shock and recovery system. therapy on light doses of drugs wont do it.

Now, see this is where you become horribly predictable, just the fact that you put my words to such extreems proves that your not really paying attention to the other side of the arguement. Also shows underlying sexual tensions .

Thats why there is shock therapy, and also muscle stimulants. Its just the fact that they dont try to do anything that bothers me.

Again this is generally, not really specifically. Plus latter on I did mention colleges.

and whats so extreme about it! you're declaring that the US education system is bad! sure it could use reform, but its certainly not behind any European country (just because they pay for 20 grades of highschool doesnt mean its a good edu system)

Dangerous
Expensive
thats why. its safer and cheaper to sit by and hope. frankly it hurts them less to.

colleges don't spring out of the ground. they need people to go to them.
see the logic there? Its pretty simple.

Ahem, I never claimed US education was bad. I said it was unequal and therefore inefficient. I never declared it bad, I said that in the larger scale of things it would do more harm. Plus, you guys are starting to put restrictions on it, requirements. Something that will only hinder this. I like the free choice they give me at my school and even though I usually go with the recomended courses I dont think everyone should be forced to. And American education has actually had 1 year more than European eduacation. Its only now that Europeans have adopted the 12 year system.

Sorry Schem, I dont suffer from the Oedipus Crisis, dont think anyone does. Its one of Frueds failed theories.

I never said the people here were stupid, I said that usually you didnt learn psychology and neurology untill college, and that some high school dont even recognize psychology as a course.

you don't seriously want me to believe the heavily fractionized EU is much better. because thats a laugh

as for restrictions: Sputnik was more than enough evidence that progressivism education is a load of shit. (well, close to... we actually let them win, no joke. but it wasn't by 10 years)

Yeah...don't look at the EU as a whole, it does suck and is a misrepresentation of individual European countries. Personally I think the EU really does us a disservice, so screw it.

just because they pay for 20 grades of highschool doesnt mean its a good edu system


WHAT!?

I may be misunderstanding you here (apology in advance) but we have 6 years primary education and 5 years secondary, thats 11 years compulsory education. Plus two years Sixth Form/college and one+ years university. I speak for only the UK because as you say the EU is heavily fractured and different countries have different educational systems (I think France starts at age six, whereas we start at age four).


The edu system is satisfactory, I am bound for a promising future, once GCSE exams are out of the way, its off to college and university (Exeter/Cambridge/Oxford, I have free reign). It could do with a bit of streamlining, drop Religious Education and Personal/Social Health Education, both piles of manure and frankly they waste my time.

I think the US has been stereotyped as being stoopid because of the dumbass president who managed to scrounge another term in office for whatever ungodly reason.

exaguration.
but my point might be difficult to understand: many EU countries pay for College ed. a full 11 years of compulsory + 4 years college give or take a grad program...
The edu system is satisfactory

and I wouldnt say its any less. but between a gagle of different countries with very different systems and the highly successful USs ed (its succesful comparitively), I think the "Europe has a better blah blah blah" comment is on very shaky ground. of course we're talking about heterogenous systems so the best of one will still beat the worst of the next etc. etc.

private funds.

No, most Scholorships come from the government, that is why for most of them you need a social security number.

Now, it is true that some of the most prestigious ones come from private funds, most of the generic ones are government funded. Plus student loans and financial aid are given by the government.
