Friend and I repeatedly ignored at bar in pub as if in parallel universe we both commented on it.
01P 2 XX.XX NS

I brought up the topic of boundaries a lot this weekend, of learning how to master professional boundaries and how to maintain them to feel safe because I sensed the week before the proving an issue with someone really opening up to me at work and worrying that I have no sense of how to show that person my boundaries so I feel safe in the relationship, whether I am too open and therefore too vulnerable.
04P XX.XX NS

Feel like I am interjecting into conversations, I can be quite impetuous and interrupt conversations but I don't normally feel a sense of wrongdoing like this. General feeling of not wanting to upset people and having go keep people happy, when asked why by a fellow prover I said rejection and being on the periphery of the group and not being able to integrate.
04P 2 XX.XX NS

Really felt the need to go for a run, and even though its dark and I am completely new to the area I am living in I went – it was a bit scary but I really felt the need for fresh air and movement and exertion.
04P 21 XX.XX NS

I feel safer outside than inside the house, not sure if this is part of the proving or not? because the feeling is familiar but I haven't really been aware of it before like this.
04P 24 XX.XX NS

I went out at lunch time and noticed that my mood really picked up from walking outside and being outside.
04P 27 XX.XX NS

One of the students on the course said that I seemed different and not as happy with myself and flatter. At that point I wasn't feeling like that so I said no, that's not my experience, but by telling me that I'm different I have felt that you may not like me any more, that I'm different and that I might not be accepted any more and will be on the outside of the group.
04P 30 XX.XX NS

I saw a little green insect that had only 1 leg and it was a grasshopper, it was sad that it couldn't jump anymore, but I am too scared of insects to pick them up so one of the other students put it in the grass. It made me think of the disabled person in the dream and being disabled and not 04P 31 XX.XX NSI am worried that I am having a different experience to the group and that this is all a load of bollocks and I am just making it up because I am worried about having a bad experience I am some how creating this.
04P 4 08.10 NS

I feel like the proving has really stirred up old feelings I used to have as a child about not fitting in and being different. These are feelings that I have not felt for years and years. I was picked on as a child because I was different or perceived as different. I stood out and was an easy target.
04P 73 XX.XX NS

We all want for a walk in the country side. Felt much better for being outside.
06P 17 XX.XX NS

Wanted to have lunch outside as it felt to hectic and busy inside. I feel I sometimes need my own space.
06P 30 XX.XX NSWent to gym. Felt anxious and sensitive to the noise and all of the people. Left without doing much. Feel a bit oppressed was glad to be outside.
06P 5 XX.XX NS

Company

Still feel the group not entirely bonded,. We have also been dogged with issues to do with food systems, that have failed!.
01P 0 XX.XX NS

Said to College Principal hadn't felt really connected to the college or the group, after all that had happened in the previous year in my life, but now I did.
02P 01 XX.XX NS

I felt as though I was surrounded by friends.
03P 1 XX.XX NS

I really wanted to get a hug from someone today, I was really craving physical contact and just a hug really.
04P 8 XX.XX NS

A sense of going into and out of the group dynamics and subject matter.
05P 30 XX.XX NS

Alone

Want to run away to sea.
01P 23 XX.XX NS

Feeling that everything is against me.
01P 25 XX.XX NS

Felt lonely and left out, like the outsider.
01P 28 XX.XX NS

This feeling that I have to work so hard and everything is a lot of effort with setbacks and difficulties.
01P 40 XX.XX NS

Waited for hour and half in village pub, totally ignored by landlord. I explained my situation and he asked no questions, just said it was alright to wait there, felt invisible, people coming in having loud conversations with landlord and wife and nobody noticing me all on my own in a corner.
01P 63 XX.XX NS

At Bar in the Pub it was as if we weren't there – not as in a low self esteem way, or non assertive way, just literally as if the bar lady couldn't see us!
02P 2 XX.XX NS

Spent the evening with two other provers and we all had the feeling that the room we were in was separate from the rest of the world. One of the other provers said that she could imagine that it was floating in space, and it seemed like that to me too.
03P 1 XX.XX NS

While walking, I had the real feeling of 'I don't belong here'.
03P 64 XX.XX NS

I spent the evening with 2 of the other provers and I felt excluded and different from them at one point because I couldn't join in with what they were doing with confidence.
04P 1 XX.XX NS

Feeling that I am not myself, I am not as fluid with others and feel more paranoid and sensitive which is in the way of comfortable interaction. I don't feel as present. I was talking to some of the other group members and they said they felt more themselves and because I felt different I suddenly wanted to burst into tears, it was a feeling of panic because I didn't fit in and was separate from others.
04P 2 14.30 NS

At lunch everyone else was sitting at the round table together and there were no spaces for me so I said 'I will have to sit by myself' and the tutor got up from the table to come and sit with me so I didn't have to sit alone.
04P 3 XX.XX NS

Giving proving details on video I had the panic that I was really on the outside of the group and different and didn't really fit in which made me tearful. I was having a different experience.
04P 3 XX.XX NS

I had a feeling at the school that it was all just clinical and that we were all just going for our own ends to become homeopaths and didn't really care about each other and it made me feel we were not together and properly bonded. Wanting to make sure as a group we really cared for each other and loved each other and looked out for each other.
04P 31 XX.XX NS

I have had the feeling I am going to end up in a mental institution, that no one will understand me and I will be lost forever, and be shut away because I am weird and all my friends and family will look at me and think that they don't know who I am any more.
04P 36 XX.XX NS

I feel a bit secretive and don't really want to say what I am feeling.
04P 4 21.00 NS

I have been home to my parents today and I was telling them that my house doesn't feel like home. My mother said, 'you feel at home here don't you?' and I had the sudden realisation that I don't. My family home doesn't feel like my home any more either, I feel displaced like I have no where to settle and feel comfortable and safe.
04P 44 XX.XX NS

I don't feel human, I feel slightly abnormal and I don't like it. I keep saying to myself its OK to be strange and different, no one is really normal, what's normality anyway! But I have a definite sense of being slightly not of this world, a bit like one of the X-Men. Its creeping me out.
04P 44 XX.XX NS

I have felt safe when someone is with me. I even had to get a friend to sleep in my bed with me, and slept better, not waking up at 4am again. I feel that when I am with someone they can protect me and that this other thing that I don't trust cant get near me, but if I am alone at night it can. Its like safety in numbers, alone you are vulnerable.
04P 48 XX.XX NS

I have for the first time in my life, or adult life been really needing other people to support me. I normally find it very difficult to take support from others, from my homeopath fine, but I have never really leaned on friends or family.
04P 48 XX.XX NS

I felt like the one person I have depended on to be here for me during this experience was backing away for me. I felt that no one would see this journey through with me and that I would have to do this alone and it felt so frightening and upsetting, I felt like no one was prepared to go the distance with me and I didn't know if I could do it alone. He said that he felt I had withdrawn within myself. I felt that he just didn't want to get too involved with me because the place I was in was too weird and scary and that he just didn't want to go there with me. I still felt totally disconnected and cold towards him and alone.
04P 50 XX.XX NS

My homeopath sent me another remedy to help get me out of this state. After taking it I did start to feel safer in my world and decided the next day to move home. I moved home that week, took all my stuff again that I had only just packed up and unpacked 6 weeks prior to this. During the proving I have moved out and moved back again. I felt that by moving back home I would be failing in some way and I would appear weak and it would show me that I can't support myself and I didn't want to lose confidence in myself because of the proving experience. I bit the bullet and moved home because I realised it was the most sensible thing to do and I should be humble and really pleased I have parents that can help me out. It was a really hard thing to do.
04P 51 XX.XX NS

Need for me to be an individual, not totally alone but I don't desire to be in a relationship. I think this feeling has been happening for about a year. However it feels intensified at present. I need my space. A strong sense of not wanting to help and be with others at present.
05P 27 XX.XX IOS

Feel like no one likes me, I am a black sheep; they are keeping me in the dark about what is going on. I am not included or valued.
07P 6 XX.XX NS

Self esteem

Got locked into a debate with a work colleague and could not see a way out. It was silly because we had no reason to be arguing or debating this issue. I noticed he was being completely different to me, we normally get on very well but he was dominant and just not hearing me and I wasn't having any of of it and told him that he was too stressed and under pressure and arguing.
04P 40 XX.XX NS

I had a phone consultation with my homeopath and after I put the phone down to him today I started to worry that he didn't think I was as nice a person because of all the things I was saying, I began to think that my current state of overt sexuality was making me harder, less feeling, and not as gentle or likeable as a person.
04P 47 XX.XX NS

The sensation of my experience today that is that people don't want to touch me, that they are having to be around me but would rather they weren't. Its like being one of the characters from the film the X-Men, where if you touch someone you will harm them. Imagine giving someone an a horrible feeling like electric shock when you touch them and they pull away and say to you 'just stay away from me, you are disgusting, don't touch me!' that's my feeling!! I have used the expression a lot 'having a bad reaction to me'.
04P 5 XX.XX NS

Went to a meeting and had a real bout of low confidence that I was no good at my job and felt tearful and depressed and downbeat. I thought I was going to have to leave the room and call my supervisor because I felt such low confidence and felt I was sitting too close to my colleagues and that I had bad breath. Then I had a wave of nausea that came over me and passed.
04P 5 XX.XX NS

Saw an old friend today but when he left I was worried that he wanted to get away from me.
04P 8 XX.XX NS

Tearful

Felt like crying for no apparent reason twice today.
03P 2 XX.XX NS

I feel depressed and a bit tearful.
04P 4 XX.XX NS

I have had cried easily every day for the last 3 days now, I haven't cried in ages because I have not felt the need to for ages.
04P 40 XX.XX NS

I am still in my pyjamas and haven't gone to work. I have not been out of the house for 2 days. I feel fragile and defenceless and a bit forlorn and sad. I could easily be brought to tears, feeling very vulnerable.
04P 46 XX.XX NS

Have felt emotions bubbling up. I was not feeling emotional & the sensation took me by surprise each time. Felt watery eyed and could have easily cried but did not want to in the presence of people.
07P 02 XX.XX NS

Angry

I've realised that during the proving, I've been experiencing further along the poles of feeling loving towards some people and feeling anger towards another. Apart from this, I've noticed is that the two ends of the pole are co-existing much more closely than ever before.
03P 14 XX.XX NS

I feel so restless and angry and displaced! I am fed up with feeling scared and feel like crashing and smashing and tearing things and getting really angry to fight this thing out of me! I feel so fucking restless, I don't know what to do with myself, to cry or to fucking scream and lash out, just fuck off and leave me alone I drove home from my parents house and screamed so loudly in the car it sounded gutsy and shrill and it even frightened me, I don't know where it came from. I have definite rage mixed and tossed about with fear inside me. I started to bite and chew my nails while driving home, I have never bitten my nails before. I want to hear the sound of something smashing and I want to fight and show that I am a survivor and will not be put down or crushed.
04P 44 XX.XX NS

Partner challenges me about changing my mind over not going to a future concert. Not what was said but how it was put to me. Blaming! I saw red was angry about making an issue over something so trivial. Feeling deep rage.
05P 1 XX.XX NS

Driving to college, being tail gated by male driver, I speed up he seems to get closer, I slow down, hes still there, can't shake him off. I have a deep sense of rage, like a ball of fire raging from my stomach, I want to annihilate him, I want to blow him up. Notice my rage which I feel uncomfortable with because its so strong. I feel I cant focus on anything else. The power of the rage takes me over so I have no control over myself. I am aware of this sensation and it subsides and he overtakes me. He's out of my face, out of my space, for me I can now calm down, I can breath again. I regain a sense of control and a sense of myself.
05P 3 XX.XX NS

I am angry over food issues at college. The cheeks on my face are red and hot. Boiling inside, uncomfortable with the sensation.
05P 36 XX.XX NS

Irritation bordering on anger, with my partner.
05P 37 XX.XX NS

I overreact to rudeness from daughter & explode in a temper with shouting.
07P 33 XX.XX NS

Irritable

Partner said I have been very irritable and short tempered the last few weeks.
01P 32` XX.XX NS

Felt as if my hair was too much, was annoying me!
02P 9 XX.XX NS

Felt irritable and even angry inside for no apparent reason, but at the same time I've felt more caring than ever towards my cats. It feels like there are two parts of me and I feel confused about their opposing nature; it seems incongruous and makes me feel unsure of who I am.
03P 10 XX.XX NS

Felt irritable on first waking for no reason. This feeling was not aimed at anyone or anything and passed after a few minutes.
03P 2 08.15 NS

Was talking to a work contact who I normally have a very friendly relationship with and felt that I wasn't getting on well with him at all, that he was not comfortable talking to me and wanted to get off the phone. After I put the phone down I went to the loo and just thought 'fuck everyone, and fuck him!' because I thought he was just being two faced and just having to be nice to me and I had seen through him.
04P 5 XX.XX NS

Started feeling very irritable at work for no reason and then my husband was irritating me as well.
06P 20 XX.XX NS

Feeling irritable in general. Feel like the house is dirty but don't I have the motivation to clean it.
06P 6 XX.XX NS

Activity

While making up the remedy, I had the desire to succuss as fast as possible.
03P 1 XX.XX NS

I have the feeling that I want more hours in the day so that I can carry on and get more done.
03P 6 XX.XX NS

At school today I had the same feeling of frustration, just not knowing what to do with myself, I didn't feel comfortable and just not myself. Then I tried to connect with what it was and realised it was a feeling of physical frustration, like I needed to do some exercise, use my body. Its like an energy that's pent up and you just don't know what to do so you just sit or stand because you feel irritated, which makes it worse! So I went for a fast walk and busied myself and then I started to feel better.
04P 31 XX.XX NS

Very busy sleep, didn't feel rested from sleep. I woke feeling I needed to go to work in order to recharge my body. This felt the other way around, going to work to rest and sleeping felt like I was working.
05P 19 XX.XX NS

Energy

Felt exuberant! I'd just captured an amazing video clip of a lacewing catching and eating an aphid, only to be completely repelled by an ant which had been attending the aphids. I told my boss but he didn't seem excited by it, which was unexpected. In fact the rest of my colleagues seemed a bit tired and down. My energy was a stark contrast.
03P 11 XX.XX NS

Surprisingly energetic this evening at dance group considering very late night last night; even had the energy to go to the pub with everyone afterwards.
03P 8 XX.XX NS

Running father than normal the last two times and really comfortably, I really enjoy running at night time at the moment.
04P 11 XX.XX NS

Went for the longest run I have ever been on and felt great, I have found I can run for longer since the proving.
04P 18 XX.XX NS

Generally very restless and can't sit still and do nothing, even restless when eating and have to concentrate to stop myself rushing to finish.
04P 20 XX.XX NS

Had a really frustrating feeling today of being angry and cross and not knowing what to do with myself. I decided to masturbate to make me relax and to help get rid of this feeling and it was so funny because afterwards I just lay on my bed and had a huge laughing fit, I was really laughing loudly for no reason at all. It was as if someone had pushed the laughing button on a doll.
04P 25 XX.XX NS

I am swearing more frequently.
04P 25 XX.XX NS

I have not felt like resting and wanted to keep busy all day, even though I am tired because I didn't get a good nights sleep. My body system is on edge and just wants to be kept active. I have had shaky hands and my nerves have felt a bit raw, I don't even want to go to bed now and am trying to keep doing stuff because I don't know if I can rest. I have been on 2 long runs this week and had little sleep.
04P 33 XX.XX NS

I have had the feeling a lot of not being connected enough to the earth. My legs have felt almost too light and I am not touching the ground with enough weight which makes me feel shaky and unsteady on my feet, too light and too edgy.
04P 34 XX.XX NS

My mum said that I was wearing really colourful clothes.
04P 41 XX.XX NS

Dancing manically in the evening for ages, really energetically and powerfully with agility and confidence that my body could bend in strange ways and could jump and not fall. I love dancing and would happily dance by myself but this was a different kind of dancing energy, not my normal expression.
04P 42 XX.XX NS

Feeling of high energy and exhilaration almost that makes me feel nervous and too self aware, somehow its not a relaxed comfortable state, its nice but not at ease. Its a feeling of not being able to maintain or manage the high energy, its unstable and could go either way.
04P 7 XX.XX NS

Feel like I can't contain the energy and I am going to explode or something like I cant handle this level of energy expanding within me.
04P 7 XX.XX NS

Really noticed the last few days that I am talking a lot when I start and I cant stop! Its really annoying and I am paranoid of what others will think, that I talk too much and then they will l have a bad reaction to me will want to not be around me. 3 different people have commented on how much I am talking at the moment.
04P 8 XX.XX NS

Huge levels of overwhelming energy again running through my system, just as it happened yesterday. I ended up being agile and energetic in the office and swinging my legs up on to the privacy cubicles (units built to divide the desks up in the office) with my hands on the sides of another unit opposite so I was completely suspended in the air. I kept doing this and doing push ups like this. I was surprised at my agility but more importantly my confidence do to it without worrying about falling or hurting myself.
04P 8 XX.XX NS

Feel so energetic and restless that I have to make a friend go for a walk with me even though its dark outside. As soon as we are walking outside I start to feel better. However the feeling of energy did not go after the walk and when I got home that night at about 10pm I was ridiculously high on physical energy and my body just felt it wanted to be used and be stretched. I ended up being really silly and bouncing and jumping up and down and skipping and spinning around with a giggling fit for about fifteen minutes or longer.
04P 9 XX.XX NS

I have the sensation of feeling pressurised in my head, like its going to explode. I feel like I'm going to go mad, sensation of loosing control, loss of senses. That is I wont be able to cope. My mind feels over-stimulated, racing away with me, almost like how I imagine the first signs of someone going mad. For me, it feels horrible, I dont want to be here.
05P 23 XX.XX NS

I have too much energy. Made husband go swimming with me. Normally this makes me fell relaxed and good about myself but after leaving the gym I still felt like I had to much nervous energy. I felt anticipation about the things I have to do today. I manged to get many things done but the feelings of restless anxiety did not go away.
06P 34 XX.XX NS

Still wide awake. I am a night person but this is too much energy for me.
06P 4 24.00 NS

I am like a fizzy drink that has lost its effervescence & again, I keep getting bubbles of emotion coming up.
07P 2 XX.XX NS

Sex

I am good friends with my MD at work and he came to visit me in my new place this evening. I had always trusted our friendship and felt safe with the knowledge that we were platonic but the feelings changed and I could sense his energy and eye contact change towards me when we were back at my house. I couldn't hold is eye contact and I was put off guard. I am annoyed with myself because my body language responded to his so I know I was giving off the wrong signals and he tried to kiss me at the end of the night. It was very strange because I didn't feel in control.
04P 13 XX.XX NS

A work contact dropped in to see me. I have always had an attraction to him and he has been a bit flirty with me but he is married and has 3 lovely children. We went to lunch and the conversations revolved around relationships and why I am single. I felt a huge wave of sexual energy in the pit of my stomach like a magnetic pull towards him. He was openly flirting with me with extremely intense eye contact. The feeling was that I couldn't control or alter my behaviour, its like a hyper-awareness where I am totally self aware and self conscious, aware of my eyes, where I am looking, my body language and theirs, it totally distracts me from being natural and its really frustrating! When he left I felt angry and guilty about the interaction. I was upset with my behaviour and felt so sexually fraught and distressed, the feeling was in my stomach and genitals like an ache or tension that made me feel sick and overwhelmed. I felt like I had almost projected something unwanted that made me feel like backing off entirely, I wished I had not spent time with him and I wanted to just dump the male race completely!
04P 15 XX.XX NS

At a hen party in London going pole dancing which again is in the sexual sphere of energy I feel I am in at the moment. One of the girls at the hen party really gave me a claws out feeling, like a grating sensation when she walked into the room. I felt real competition with her and even felt uncomfortable looking into her eyes. I felt we were competing for attractiveness and who could be the best at pole dancing and look the most attractive. This is not necessarily a new feeling for me but this was really really heightened and intensified, and I felt it I my solar plexus. It was like a plug and in created intense pressure like I needed to release it by belching or something but it was totally trapped.
04P 16 XX.XX NS

Met a really attractive single man when at a nightclub at the hen party. I described him as 'my adonis' because he was just lovely to look at! I haven't met anyone in about 3 years who is firstly single and secondly I would like to see. I have since the proving only attracting men in relationships which has created feelings of guilt and feelings of sexual awareness where they are not appropriate. But this is fantastic, really magnetic to attract a beautiful man! However I have never been one to go for looks with men so its very unlike me to be prioritising and focusing on his external appearance so much, he is gorgeous. What's stranger is the next day when I met up with him I started to worry that he maybe deformed in some way, he is perfect to look at externally but he kept asking me if I was comfortable with my body naked, and he said he had suffered from cancer and had it cut out, and that he was really dyslexic. That wouldn't normally bother me but for some reason I am just aware of my feeling of beauty and the beast within him, he also said he was a Gemini and I said who am I spending time with today – Jeckle or Hyde?! He also growled in my ear which sent shivers down my spine we joked about me being very submissive and having to give in and he used the word 'repulsive' to describe this, it was almost as if he meant to pick a different word but this came out and didn't seem an appropriate word to use in the context of what we were talking about.
04P 16 XX.XX NS

Met up with the new man I met last night, we went for picnic in a park and he was very passionate and I just let myself go completely. My imagination was let loose because he talked me very slowly through everything he wanted to do to me in bed and by the end of it I was completely absorbed and almost hyperventilating and felt like we had actually had sex! Even though we hadn't. We were in a public park at the time and I couldn't really have cared if the whole world and his dog had walked passed while we were being outrageous together, normally this is something that would hold me back.
04P 17 XX.XX NS

My aunty has split up with her boyfriend of 15 years and I am good friends with him. She is in her fifties and he in his late forties. I meet up with him for lunch and he is like an uncle to me as well as a good friend. My aunty for some reason thinks that I have got in the way of their relationship and has behind my back accused me of having an affair with him.
04P 19 XX.XX NS

Increased desire to masturbate and feeling of sexual frustration.
04P 21 XX.XX NS

Had a reckless afternoon which I had not planned on having. Felt like just doing something I wouldn't normally do and just living for the moment. I ended up in bed all afternoon with a work contact who is married. We ended up having cheeky interactions over email and the idea of meeting at my house for the afternoon came up and I thought sod it, why not! And we had a great time. As I was driving home to meet him I thought I am going to give myself the opportunity to be what ever I want to be and to just go for it. It felt like a fantastic liberating thing to do and I felt really energised afterwards. It was purely a physical thing, not about falling in love or getting emotionally involved and that was the really strange feeling about it, but also very liberating and as if I was giving my body what it needed, not my heart or mind, just my body.
04P 22 XX.XX NS

I was nervous about staying by myself so asked a friend to come and stay with me. We are very close friends. I said I was worried about myself at the moment and that I didn't feel anything from having sex the night before and that I wanted to wipe the experience out. That evening we were lying in the sofa touching and rubbing each others legs and massaging each others feet. I ended up being in bed with my friend, and he couldn't maintain a lasting erection. It was actually very funny because and we laughed and laughed about it to the point I could hardly breath! The ironic thing is my attempts to connect are failing and what I was trying to achieve has from this has been exacerbated instead of abated, but at least this time I could talk freely with my friend and feel understood because I know he loves me as a person. This is second man I slept with in a 24 hour period. I have never done this before I my life. In fact it means I have had sex with 3 different men over the that 3 weeks, when I haven't slept with 2 men in the last 2 years before the proving! Its a really strong urge to want to connect and be touched, have stimulation and feel safe and to relate to someone.
04P 38 XX.XX NS

I had sex at 4 in the morning and for the first time in my life I felt absolutely nothing, I felt lifeless and dead with no physical reaction at all. I have only recently met this person and I couldn't see their face or hear their voice because it was too dark and I told them something didn't feel right for me. I had no stimulation at all and I couldn't even breath passionately, it was a very strange and disconcerting place to be because I am a sensual person and when we had been touching each other earlier in the night it had been lovely. It upset me and I felt like I had lost something somehow and started to worry something was wrong with me. That night afterwards when we were lying together I dreamt that we had very stimulating sex. I thought about the experience of not feeling anything during sex and wondered what I am doing even making the effort to see this person because I don't actually feel they understand me or listen to me and I don't really understand them either. I thought about what he was like and remembered that when we had been in bed he had in passionate moments pinned me down my my neck. I didn't feel scared and it was almost exciting because I was so vulnerable but in hindsight I don't understand him and it could be construed that I was being stupid to put myself in that situation. My drive to do this is weird and I don't think I am listening to my instincts much, because I can't get in touch with them.
04P 38 XX.XX NS

A guy who is a very close friend came to stay with me, and we ended up having sex. We were just together on the sofa watching a film and when we were holding hands and rubbing each others arms it felt so nice and I felt really sexually attracted to him and this desire was beyond wanting to be careful because we were friends. He said the next day that he worried he had taken advantage of me because I am vulnerable but I said I really wanted to so he hadn't, I just really wanted to give myself to him and connect, I felt like nothing else mattered. After sex I felt really relaxed and happy and actually stronger, stronger than he was because he ended up being vulnerable because his orgasm had been so intense and he nearly fainted which hadn't happened to him before, so I ended up wanting to look after him. He kept calling me a black widow spider.

Its very difficult to predetermine what I want to do right now and my sexual urges are so overwhelming its exceptionally difficult to stop myself acting on them, they really want to take over.
04P 47 XX.XX NS

The remedy feels a lot about dangerous sexuality, the second ad was titled "dirty brunette looking for a fuck buddy" with my photo beneath it. It looked so at odds with my image and my face. I think my dreams are actually real, they are saying do be scared and do protect yourself.
04P 49 XX.XX NS

Feel a bit greasy and man like, don't like what I look like but almost feel nonchalant about it, feel a bit asexual.
04P 5 XX.XX NS

Intense sexual frustration so I had to masturbate in the ladies loo's at work! I have never ever done this before!

Fear

Churned up after car vandalism incident last night.
01P 11 XX.XX NS

Really not happy with B and B, a loft room with no door on room, just open to the house with strangers, felt very vulnerable, not usually so timid and fearful.
01P 28 XX.XX NS

Discovered car wing mirror vandalised again (days 10 and 35 previous vandalism incidents), for past three weeks have been parking car in quiet cul-de-sac near where we live, still damaged! Feel desperate, are we being targeted or is this just random? 01P 59 XX.XX NS

Landlady began speaking, as if she pounced on m.as I sat down with my bags still in my hands She laughed about this the next day and said she felt as if she had 'verbally pinned me to the chair', which is what it felt like.
02P 1 XX.XX NS

In the evening was followed home by a man who attends a course at one of the places I work; He had been drinking at the bustop I was at; he had earlier looked at me, I felt, in an evil way, then got on the same bus; and got off at same stop; It was pitch black and the wind was howling all around me, felt spooked and in danger.
02P 63 XX.XX NS

Policeman on bus, in uniform, Looked stern; I was typing on my mobile, felt as if he was suspicious of what I was typing.
02P 8 08.00 NS

Awoke suddenly with the feeling that there was someone in my room. I felt fearful and realised that I'd put my arms up to protect myself. Once I was properly awake I felt ok again and went back to sleep.
03P 35 XX.XX NS

Seeing things in the shadows on going to sleep and feeling nervy.
04P 1 XX.XX NS

Paranoia that I have offended and not said the right thing or done the right thing.
04P 2 XX.XX NS

I had the utmost panic at about 5am this morning when I thought someone was in the house with me, I felt terrified and my heart was pounding and I just didn't know what to do. I was absolutely convinced I heard someone in the house, so I turned my lights on and just sat in bed petrified. I have never been scared of people breaking in before. The feeling wasn't that they were going to steal something but that they would come and hurt me, I was just waiting for my bedroom door to be pushed open and my whole body was in a state of shock and I had no idea of what to do. I thought I would just burst in to tears but nothing came, I was absolutely terrified. The words rolled through my head again and again 'lord as I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, please be by my side and protect me' and this is not a normal turn of phrase for me at all, I don't know where it came from. I had the feeling that complete and utter fear and shocking experiences would change one's life forever and you just wouldn't be the same person again, the feeling was so strong in me that something petrifying was going to happen and I would be scarred forever.
04P 20 XX.XX NS

Had a restless and disturbed nights sleep, every noise is disturbing me at night and making me jumpy and too conscious of noises and my surroundings. Even though rationally I know I am really safe I don't feel it, I have felt frightened and the noises make my heart race. I can see I my minds eye something or someone threatening, big and black coming into to my room and towering over me. I can't seem to get rid of the idea even though its nonsense. I had the idea last night of someone trying to get in the house by shaking all the doors and windows trying to force them.
04P 32 XX.XX NS

I have felt quite disturbed sometimes and really quite jumpy. I can be like this but I haven't for quite a while now. I just keep having this feeling that there is someone here somehow and I know its not true. I keep wondering whether someone has hidden in the house or whether there is a spirit here that is with me. I actually hope not because the idea really scares me!
04P 32 XX.XX NS

Waking up at 4am. Scared of ghosts or burglars in the house, its completely irrational but I can't get this silly fear out of my head.
04P 35 XX.XX NS

Woke up at 3am feeling nervous again even though I thought I had sorted the idea of an energetic presence in my house, I have such a vivid wild imagination at the moment I kept looking for shapes in the dark. I was thirsty and needed to go to the loo but was too scared to move so almost laid unnaturally still in my bed, I basically froze. I didn't want to drink because it would mean I would have to get up and venture across the landing over the spot I felt was cold and shivery. Woke up again at 5am because my house got really noisy. I felt there was a presence and it swept above me, like a flash of light in my minds eye. I was afraid but tried to relax. I again drifted off into a weird sleep state where I was trying to wake myself up because I was afraid but couldn't, its like I was drugged but really need to wake up. I felt something crawling across my head, another presence in the room and the energy was touching me. It was so strong it felt like something was crawling at the top of my head and over my face like a rat. I heard a noise under my bed and I thought I heard a voice, I stayed awake until nearly 7am.
04P 36 XX.XX NS

I have a strange feeling which I will try to describe: The feeling is like being locked away in a space and detached from reality and not knowing what's going to happen to you, something is there with you and it can see you but you can not see it. Its interested in you and wants you to stay alert to it. Because it could hurt you, it likes you being aware of it and its kind of playing with you, it knows you are scared of it which gives it a kick.
04P 36 XX.XX NS

A strange look on my face in the mirror, I have in the past looked at the mirror and not really recognised myself when I have been in unhappy times, but this was different, I didn't really want to write this down but my eyes looked frightening and I looked evil for some reason – it scared me! I have never noticed that look before and time kind of speeded up.
04P 4 XX.XX NS

Thought I heard running water and had to get up and check because I thought it was going to flood the house but non of the taps were on. All the shadows in the room were moving and seemed real and was so glad someone was staying with me.
04P 44 XX.XX NS

I saw green smoke in the corner of my room, the noises in the house were freaking me out. I thought I could cope and put off calling someone, but then time started ticking passed 22.00 I realised that I had a narrow window of opportunity to get myself out of this. I was scared I would wake up in the middle of the night and not be able to reach out to anyone because it was too late to call. It was a cry for help and survival and I called my mother and best friend and they didn't want to come and I felt like my life lines were falling away and start to to have a panic attack, shaking, cold, sobbing, nearly hyperventilating, shock, fear, thought I was not going to survive. One amazing friend came to my rescue and I feel totally indebted to them for saving me. I called my supervisor who supported me until my friend arrived. I didn't know what I was going to do, I was really on the edge of reality and felt like I was, am totally losing it. I felt like I could do something stupid like just run out of the house in my underwear and find someone to help me and its snowing and dark outside. Or maybe I would just collapse in a shaking heap and be sick. When my friend arrived I just grabbed hold of them and didn't fee safe unless they were really close to me, even when I got up to get some tissues and had to walk away from them I felt unsafe. I am crying this morning because I don't think I can go on like this. As soon as night time comes I am on alert and so scared and its wrecking my life and my health. I have stupid visions of something, non human, attacking me and completely terrifying me. I thought I was a strong person and that I could cope but I don't think I can and don't know how to help myself.
04P 44 XX.XX NS

I logged onto my email account and had a bundle of pornographic emails and a link to a horrible sexually disturbed want ad that someone has posted using my details, its about me with my email address. The replies are horrible with photos from men of their bodies. It has worried me because nothing like this has happened to me before. I don't know who to trust or why someone would do that.
04P 45 XX.XX NS

Woken up again and didn't go back to sleep. Felt nervous and anxious and say in my minds eye something horrible and dark coming through my bedroom door. I wanted to get out of bed to cross the landing and had the feeling that I would need to crawl on my stomach to stay low to the ground to avoid being seen. I heard noises like a cupboard door banging but I think this was in my sleep and it woke me because it sounded real.
04P 47 XX.XX NS

Burst into tears and been panicking and upset because the person that put a sexually wanted advert about me on the internet has done it again and this time they have also put up a face shot photo of me and also put up photos of naked women that are not me but portrayed as though they are. I felt shaky and really upset that someone would want to hurt me, it feels vindictive and has made me feel unsafe. I have reported this to the police and they are going to investigate.
04P 48 XX.XX NS

I think my panic attack on the Sunday was because my body sensed that actually I am not as safe in my world anymore. I feel that I have been losing it, but I definitely feel now that actually I am being a bit clairvoyant or clairsentient and that I have been picking up on the fact that some vindictive vicious clever bastard has a vendetta against me and wants to frighten me and I don't know where this will stop.
04P 49 XX.XX NS

I have been so terribly vulnerable and fragile that I have had to lean on my friends, I even made a friend sleep in my bed with me. I feel I don't have the strength or energy left to protect myself and as soon as I am alone this thing will come and get me and scare me. It's playing with me. I can't hide my fragility and vulnerability since the proving so its now in people's faces and they can not avoid it. My friends keep saying are you ok, you don't look ok, you look sad or upset, and have offered to stay with me every night so I am not alone. It's amazing how people reach out to you and how you know who your true friends are. One of my friends, a best friend has completely let me down when I really needed her after around the panic attack and I will never ever think of her in the same light again, I have given her so much support and the one time I needed her she wasn't there for me.
04P 49 XX.XX NS

Little bit scared of the dark. It was an oppressive feeling as if the darkness would enclose me.
06P 12 XX.XX NS

I felt a very weird feeling of dread like a premonition that something bad was going to happen. The sensation filled my whole body particularly my stomach and chest. It was not an intellectual feeling but a physical one.
06P 14 XX.XX NS

My husband thinks I am too sensitive (more than usual) and do not protect myself from external events that are nothing to do with me.
06P 18 XX.XX NS

Went to see a horror film at the cinema. It was a good one but I did not enjoy it. Normally I like being scared and they are fun but I left feeling stressed and anxious.
06P 38 XX.XX NS

Woke up suddenly. I was scared of the dark. I turned on the lights and woke up my husband. Did not want to go back to sleep in case the dream started again.
06P 8 XX.XX NS

Truth

Partner revealed it had been a joke about people coming for weekend. He has never done anything like this before. Very annoyed, could not believe he could have carried this through, found it hard to get over.
01P 15 XX.XX NS

Forgot to pay for my food at pub, it was disgusting, goat's cheese and tomato on toast but it was a tin of tomatoes plonked on top of the cheese on toast, could barely eat it. Unusual to forget to pay the bill and not to feel guilty about it.
01P 28 XX.XX NS

I have noticed that I have an overwhelming urge to tell people how I am feeling and tell the truth, even though sometimes I don't know if its the right thing to do I can't help it. It is making me feel quite a lot that I am strange and that people don't understand and can't relate to me, because I can hardly relate to myself currently.
04P 38 XX.XX NS

I am noticing how open I am being with my emotions and how I feel, I am just stating to people exactly what is going on for me because I don't want to be misunderstood because of how I have changed the last few days.
04P 8 XX.XX NS

I had a different opinion to the others. Even though I admitted I had not written the case up or studied the actual remedy given I felt I was being overly argued with by the tutor. I felt as though I was being attacked and if the next patient had not turned up I think I would have carried on.
06P 14 XX.XX NS

I suddenly decided to confront the work colleague who was harassing me yesterday. She asked me how I was & I impulsively decided to tell her! She looked shocked because I was annoyed, direct & quite harsh. I will probably upset management if I keep baring my soul like this. I am really struggling to hide my feelings lately; I feel like I must be honest to myself & others & I am acting impulsively. This is the inner 'truthful' me, not the outer 'nervy, wimpy' me that everyone usually sees.
07P 9 XX.XX NS

Order & Cleaning

Went early to school and was nearly splattered with cow dung when car passed me by, later saw large cow pat on pavement camouflaged by leaves and was very anxious about this for rest of weekend as if I thought I was going to step in it.
01P 29 XX.XX NS

Would like to let it all go and let someone else do the organising for me.
01P 9 XX.XX NS

Feeling very organised and motivated; finished coursework with 2 weeks still to go until hand-in, which has never happened before. I feel as though I can keep a lot of balls in the air at once at the moment; it seems easier than normal.
03P 16 XX.XX NS

Felt a real need to clean my room really thoroughly.
03P 39 XX.XX NS

I moved house today and when I got there the landlords had not fulfilled their obligations to clean the property, it was really dusty and dirty! I had to leave all my things under a sheet and wait for the cleaners.
04P 13 XX.XX NS

I have been calling myself a tidy freak because I can't stop noticing little things to wipe down or put away, it's annoying because it means I can't just rest and sit and eat for example without having to get up to do something else quickly. I have done loads of washing today, 4 loads.
04P 33 XX.XX NS

Felt the house was dirty and I had to clean the whole house before I could do any work.
06P 48 XX.XX NS

Feel like I need to purify my bedroom. Cleaned the bathroom rigorously. Ttidying and cleaning more the usual. It feels more like a compulsion.
06P 8 XX.XX NS

There is dog poo outside school when I go to fetch kids & I am very aware of it outside my car.
07P 11 XX.XX NS

Indecisive

Indecision over what to eat, hungry but almost don't know what I fancy, its like a numb sense so I can't imagine the flavours to whet my appetite and help me decide what to eat.
04P 9 XX.XX NS

Really noticed my indecision since the proving, not finding it easy to connect with what I want.
04P 9 XX.XX NS

Confusion

Mixing up counting - lost track of numbers in succussion.
01P 1 XX.XX NS

Tripped over/trod on dog in kitchen. Someone looked at me as if they thought I should have noticed the dog, as if criticsing me. Thought dog was by dish washer and he moved unnoticed by me, weird feeling of disorientation and spatial confusion.
01P 2 XX.XX NS

Got lost in new village I live in, kept trying to find a way out of the road, but kept coming to seemingly dead ends!
02P 11 XX.XX NS

day I have had confusion that one person was another, this has happened a few times in the past.0
2P 2 XX.XX NS

I've noticed that for the last few days I keep dropping or knocking things over.
03P 10 XX.XX NS

Got lost trying to get home, orientation really bad, thought I was going one way and it was in the opposite direction.
04P 22 XX.XX NS

I thought I knew my self really well and my symptoms really well and was overtly confident about this before the proving. But now I feel confused. I felt as though I had merged somehow and couldn't tell the old me from the proving experience. I felt tearful and cried. I didn't like the experience I had feeling on the outside of the group and as though I couldn't connect with others easily, I felt somehow a barrier that was inexplicable when looking at people and wanting to flow and connect with them. I felt on the outside and the words also went though my head of being pushed out and I started to worry that the rest of the group were having a bonding experience but I would be shunned somehow, I felt my confidence falter.
04P 3 XX.XX NS

Went to the cinema and when I came back I had a feeling of a distorted time zone and didn't feel present in my body enough, I couldn't grasp what day it was and feel like I haven't been living in reality.
04P 35 XX.XX NS

I saw an image of me free falling of a cliff, its like being emotionally void and you are just falling, I am trying to reach for the cliff face but my hands scrape past and I can't stop myself. I then saw myself landing on a ledge and I am stuck in a place of limbo between two worlds. I don't know if I will ever reach the ground at the top again, but if I just throw myself off I don't know if I will ever land, if there is ground below me. My boundaries have disappeared and I am staring into space when talking to people, its as if I am not really here and not in touch with reality at all, or maybe this is my new reality, and I just don't understand it because I have never been here before.
04P 39 XX.XX NS

I feel even more lost and confused than ever. I feel like my personality and knowledge of myself has been put in a box and shaken up and I have come out in a different order and I don't know if I will ever feel the same again. I really have a strong feeling that I am a changed person and I am sobbing and crying while typing this because I so lost and confused. Its now 5am and have been awake since 3.30am and couldn't sleep so decided to just get up, I am hot and feel sweaty even though the house is chilly. For about 5 days now I have not had more than 4 hours sleep a night and less on occasions. I feel I am free falling and don't know if I will ever land again or come back to myself. My boundaries have disappeared and I know I need to reconstruct myself again on some level and discover the new person I am becoming.
04P 40 XX.XX NS

Time

At bus stop when I looked at my mobile, I couldn't register what the numbers meant! Thought it was an hour earlier; Then when I looked at the town clock (traditional style with hour hands), time made sense.
02P 4 XX.XX NS

I said 'my time is precious' which I never say!
02P 5 XX.XX NS

Immediately after taking the remedy I felt as though everything slowed down.
03P 1 XX.XX NS

Felt as thought the outside has slowed compared to me; I'm still fast and so I'm much more capable now and can get more done than a normal person. This felt powerful and I felt special due to this.
03P 4 XX.XX NS

Woke up and time was really distorted, I had no sense of what day it was at all or what I was meant to be doing, woke up earlier than normal because I thought that someone put their hand on my pillow.
04P 11 XX.XX NS

Talking to my supervisor this evening I felt I a time warp and we were on the phone for 1 hour 30 minutes and it felt like only 30 minutes. It was like this earlier today when I met a friend for lunch, we had been gone 2 hours and it felt like only half an hour.
04P 39 XX.XX NS

Time is strange and just seems to pass and I have no idea what time it is. I feel in a disconnected time warp not in tune with the rest of the bustling world, its like being in a separated drug state where you just look out into space and things happen around you. I keep forgetting what I wanted to do or say, and worry that I will make mistakes at work or that thoughts won't come to me. My logical rational brain isn't working, its all sensory and as if I am just waiting for the thoughts to come to me. I cant connect easily with what I want to do or say.
04P 46 XX.XX NS

Time speeded up while brushing my teeth.
04P 9 XX.XX NS

Writing & Speaking

Stumbling over words in pairwork activity.
01P 2 XX.XX NS

Finding it sluggish to write.
02P 6 XX.XX NS

On first writing, I found it very difficult and slow and wondered how I would manage.
03P 1 XX.XX NS

Saw my handwriting and thought that it looked strange and not like it belonged to me.
03P 2 XX.XX NS

Wrote a card to a friend and realised after that I'd written it upside down.
03P 5 XX.XX NS

Much less bothered about getting things right. I used some poor grammar (which is unusual), and noticed this but then thought it didn't matter.
03P 6 XX.XX NS

My handwriting has changed and become really erratic and not as flowing as normal.
04P 20 XX.XX NS

Noticed my desire to want to sound fluent and write intelligently, noticed that sometimes I stumble over my words however, which links in with the sense that I am talking a lot more.
04P 9 XX.XX NS

Insects

Quiet wasp landed on my fringe, partner told me and I panicked, have always had fear of wasps after incident of multiple stings in my youth but have coped for years without panicking due to having my own childrens' fears to deal with, this was a flashback to my youth.
01P 12 XX.XX NS

Wasp in house, desperate to get rid of it, could not relax. Seem to be infested at moment, every day there are wasps or loud bluebottles/flies to be dealt with, they are bothering me and I need to kill them or get them out of the window, more intense than usual.
01P 17 XX.XX NS

Flies and wasps buzzing loudly in kitchen and sitting room: felt like insect invasion! Very sudden onset unusual and overpowering.
01P 4 XX.XX NS

Huge spiders appeared several times, Less fear felt around them. Was fascinated by the size of these spiders! (and later in the proving, a lot of fascination with insects).
02P 1 XX.XX NS

While eating some stir fry, bits of the food suddenly looked like brown worms? Ugh! (Have had this a lot in the proving, where I feel my food is either raw meat or an insect of some kind!). Had to throw those parts away and make myself eat the rest, as had no other food in! Had to fight the idea hard that there had been worms in my food, makes me cringe now to think about it.
02P 48 XX.XX NS

There were flies buzzing around and I found the sound relaxing. A fly landed on my left hand and was walking around it, and this felt nice.
03P 1 XX.XX NS

Fascinated by a plume of flies (gnats or similar). How can they fly so fast zooming around each other without hitting one another, and how do they change direction so fast?
03P 32 XX.XX NS

Saw an image of an animal or insect that was black and and hairy, it was making a cat like motion of arching its back and pushing its feet into the ground, but it has more legs than a cat, it was like it was getting ready to jump or make rapid movement.
04P 39 XX.XX NS

On waking had the image of one spider or insect with lots of legs, I did think it looked like a daddy long legs but they wouldn't be strong enough, killing another insect by drawing it in underneath its body and crushing it, there were lots of legs and a definite winner and a loser.
04P 48 XX.XX NS

Felt harassed by flies.
07P 01 XX.XX NS

Am aware of flies everywhere in my house & flying insects everywhere outside.
07P 6 XX.XX NS

Other Symptoms

I have a general desire to wear bright colours, ear rings: wear lively and interesting clothes and jewellery.
01P 4 XX.XX NS

I had the feeling that I'm splitting apart into pieces. I've always held them together but now they're coming apart and I feel emotional about this. It's like I've always tried so hard to keep everything together and not I'm not, and I'm not sure why or if it will be ok. What if I'm not the same person afterwards. Maybe it will be better, but I don't know and I feel that I've let it go farther than I'm sure I can get it all back together again. Just before I fell asleep, I felt anxious about all the parts of me separating. I felt as though they might just disintegrate apart and I might not be able to speak when I wake up the next morning; I might not function if I don't have all of my parts together.
03P 10 XX.XX NS

During meditation, we were told to choose a colour. I tried pink first but it made me feel nauseous, so I changed to orange with gold flecks. While driving I noticed a car behind me which had pink flowers painted on it, a pink fluffy steering wheel and pink fluffy toys in it. I realised that I was feeling nauseous and this was making it worse.
03P 11 XX.XX NS

I feel as though the parts of me are still here, but are farther apart than they've been before. It feels as though they are on thin wires, so are still connected together but only by the wires. I also felt a deep grief, as though I was more aware of things that I have lost.
03P 11 XX.XX NS

I feel like the remedy is inside me and I want to get it out. It feels like a black furry gremlin thing moving around in circles in the area of my solar plexus. I want to get it out of my body.
03P 14 XX.XX NS

I had an intense desire to 'go home' but not that I wanted to return to where my physical home is. It seemed deeper than that, more of a deep yearning to return to where I belonged, which didn't feel like a place here on the earth. It felt as though it could be another planet.
03P 2 XX.XX NS

I noticed that my white writing paper looked slightly pink to me, and this exacerbated the feeling of nausea still present. When I looked around, other things which I knew were white also looked tinged with pink. The lecturer was wearing a pink shirt with a pink t-shirt underneath. I experienced an aversion to the colour pink.
03P 2 XX.XX NS

I had the feeling that being in a human body disgusts me; that humans are disgusting; they hurt and kill each other and the energy feels low around some people. I feel that the inner part of a person is light and good but something about being in the body makes people behave badly.
03P 47 XX.XX NS

Noticed that I'm being more helpful at work; just getting on and doing things even if it's not down to me to get those things done. I feel as though I'm being kinder and more thoughtful of others. I have less irritability when colleagues don't do things in the way we've been asked to do them.
03P 5 XX.XX NS

I feel as though I'm wearing an old brown (leather?) coat, which is no longer right for me, and I need to cast it off.
03P 61 XX.XX NS

During the meditation after taking the remedy I saw a vision of a steel tunnel with a huge metal ball rolling down in, like a huge drainpipe and I was inside it, the tunnel and ball were huge, it was accompanied by a sound of metal rumbling. I also had the idea of my head being pushed through a steel tube with a fuzzy sensation and pressure at the sides and back of my head.
04P 1 XX.XX NS

There has been a theme of witches coming up and I felt that maybe I needed to become a witch.
04P 19 XX.XX NS

Feel very narcissistic and talking about myself all the time! Don't really like this because I am normally very good at listening to others but I find myself very self absorbed and change the conversations to talk about me and my recent experiences.
04P 24 XX.XX NS

I have had a massive attraction to the colour purple, the last few days I just want to wear it and see it. This is definitely not a colour I would select usually, but I have acquired 2 purple tops in the last week, a purple hat, a purple screen-saver for my mobile.
04P 40 XX.XX NS

A sense that Im not in control of my actions and there is something far bigger than me that influences me, I dont know what because I can't see, hear, touch, smell or eat it, I can only sense it.
05P 22 XX.XX NS

Dreams

Physicals

Dreams

Disturbing dream involving an evil Ian Mckellen, I ended up at his home, needing bed for night, he went to bed early, his manner rude and abrasive, his wife mixed a potion and shoved spoon in my mouth, strong sedative, could hardly move body or speak, she apologised and said he always does this with visitors, in my room I broke down and sobbed violently, thinking I would never escape from this house, woke up relieved to have escaped from dream.
01P 18 XX.XX NS

Dreams about trying to remember dreams because of proving.
01P 2 XX.XX NS

He took us back to place of work, where we attempted to rob him of his cash, without him seeing. There was an element of risk and dare but I stole his monetary notes. He could see what we were doing but didnt challenge us. Not sure how this ended.

Having multiple orgasms, through masturbation, not intense climax, sense of over, and over and over again, no strong emotions attached. Just do it! Matter of fact. Like a monkey.
