Spiritual Space Dementia (SSD)
Mental Illness Classified: Spiritual Space Dementia (SSD)
SSD develops when a subject is exposed to prolonged repetitions as one might experience aboard a ship. This differs from other forms of space dementia as the symptoms take on physical traits as opposed to purely mental. Religion during pioneering days played a major role in stabilizing these threats. However individualism amidst primal forces escalates into irrecoverable bouts of SSD, resulting in racial stereotypes such as the Sansha, Blood Raiders and rogue drones.
Spiritual manifestations triggered by the subconscious to combat dementia do not present themselves as ascended guides but bio emissions resulting from brainwave activity interacting with warp core magnetics. Sentient resonances manifested by subconscious reflections regarding God and other anomalous conundrums take on primal attributes akin to those found on terraforming worlds.
SSD first emerged as a form of stigmata related to dementia. Further studies revealed sentience imbued into the dementia because of synaptic explosions resonating with warp core emissions. Spiritual Space Dementia is a type of dementia with stigmata like symptoms resulting from regular dementia removing ascended qualities from magnetic disturbances. In the early days space religion played the heavy role in stabilizing biological emissions. Current independencies in thought patterns related to planetary electromagnetic spectrums tied to genetic codex's have resulted in primal bouts of dementia:
Irreversible in cases such as Sansha, Blood Raiders, and rogue drones.
Evidence of this can be found in the flotsam of wreckage.
Once biological thought patterns consistent with that of self-preservation and the instincts for survival die within the genetic strain the spacial dementia sets in.
All life forms excrete DNA sequences. Under the pull of gravity brain wave activity is suppressed. As subconscious emanations lose touch with self-preservation, instincts independent of awareness concerning the collective unity of the intelligent eco system involved interact on cellular levels; Magnetic manifestations take on destructive qualities. These sources of disturbance can be sedated with proper medication but require regimented gravity time and psychological session time.
Dementia whether in space or planet side is always compounded by any lack of options. In space the options are consistently limited making the illness if successfully diagnosed a Flight License grounder. Homeopathic gravity wells of successfully terraformed planetary magnetospheres will rectify most afflictions after care and rest.
Fly safe!

I would advise you to limit the amount of mind-enhancers you supply to certain customers. There's been an increase in these esotheric threads as of late.

I agree with your point Ms Ymladris, but this fellow isn't one of my customers. I advise my clients carefully on booster user, be it for combat, recreational or spiritual purposes.

Warp travel has a tendency of messing some people's heads. For many people they get cynosis. For many others, it's *something*. Some are just mad and others are, well, they sort of concluded that they were demigods what with immortality and ability to cut fleets down at will? |

Certainly, it's a time-honoured tradition in my line of business!
I'm sure I could arrange a good deal with a skilled tailor, too... I had a look at your work and while I'm not a fan of dresses and skirts, the quality does appear to be excellent. Do you do anything in leather with buckles?
Back on topic (from what I can gather from it, anyway)...
Staying true to your spirituality and beliefs, whatever they are, provides something for you to emotionally and mentally anchor yourself. For the majority of capsuleers who invoke a higher power in their lives, rituals, prayers and offerings play a part in establishing a routine that helps to stave away dementia and other mental illnesses.
Of course, you can take it to the extremes where belief and spirituality become very dangerous and genocidal; I'm sure I don't need to drop names to illustrate that point. But thankfully, cases like that are a very slim minority. Karynn Denton Caravan Master

Science fiction fantasizes about ships consisting of nothing but core. Cerebral use of the spinal columns connections to different organs limits the ability to achieve this type of travel. Even when piloting from the pod a veteran with instincts serves better a crew than A.I. alone. Knowing ones limitations is key to suppressing the illness. Knowing ones own limitations and having faith in the reality lived separates good Will and ill Will during bouts.
For a captain to assume the role of God is to rationally self destruct. Logic fades in the eyes of no longer needing to perceive mystery. Conceptual intelligence depends upon environmental limitations which God is without. Logical conceptions depend upon humilities in sight of ignorance. The mental degradation occurs as the minds comprehension of wisdom about universal quests can not be processed.
During White Noise Generation tests (EVP) countless individuals were classified and recorded over periods of extended time. With various stimuli's to manifest a dynamic environment their recordings were then sent through the most updated language translator/filter to compile relative information. It was learned that these emanations were attributed to thought patterns however a presence could generate it's own thought pattern. This effects field integrity because of static discharge.
Shaping these effects is going to prove a challenge. |

Wrong SSD is all about the Brain worms that sneak in through your mining beams, they get into your ship then infect your crew and turn them against you so you have to hit the self destruct and murder them all before they will murder you in your capsule unless you. The brain worms can live in zero atmosphere of space and wait on asteroids for miners then infect them so that they are brought on to stations so they can then infect every one else worse is the Worm Queen connects them all with a Hive Mind...Were Doomed I tell you we are all DOOOOMED!
*bursts into mirthful laughter* Sorry I really could not help my self, and no Brain worms are not real.

Some of the scientific papers being released these days have been rather strange.
"I say that even as the holy and the righteous cannot rise beyond the highest which is in each one of you - so the wicked and the weak cannot fall lower than the lowest which is in you also. -áAnd as a single leaf turns not yellow but with the silent knowledge of the whole tree, so the wrong-doer cannot do wrong without the hidden will of you all." |

I have spent considerable time in close proximity to the warp core of my ship to experience a mild euphoric bloodthirst.
But in my experience (I use this word loosely, but it would be too much to explain just now) the byproducts of industrial work can produce more powerful long term distortion effects on the mind. Even moreso than boosters..
..and if you happen to grind up Ark or Bis and steep it in runoff or processed coolant (with heavy metals reasonably filtered out, of course), this can go a long way in profoundly changing your brainwave patterns. |

Just a nitpick of course, but neither Sansha, Blood Raiders or rogue drones are races.
Races are such things as Deteis, Brutor and Nikunni. Sansha's Nation and the Blood Raiders consist of the various races, so you could argue that some races are more susceptible to the different ideologies of the different factions, although in the case of the Sansha the operation theatre needs to be taken into account, as they can and will convert people against their will. The Blood Raiders will as well of course, under the course of arms and exploitation.
The rogue drones are no race in particular, but something like an over complex AI run amok. They are very active with algorithms that promote growth and reproduction, but don't seem to exert any behaviour beyond that. That I know off, of course. I'm sure that more informed researchers could shed more light onto the situation.
That said.
As best as I can decipher the cryptic messages.... Implants combined with automation of your mind can lead to dementia of both consciousness and bodily function. I have to agree on that, experiencing the various behaviours of fellow capsuleers.
This may cause an attractiveness to factions that heavily promote these functions, such as the Sansha. Or induce a feeling of familiarity with rogue drones and even sleepers. Not that these are real, but to the subject in question they would appear to be real and thus a sort of spiritual reality.
I also agree that the cure would found in getting rid of all the automation and technology, returning to be basics on a planet. Just as simple as possible, food, shelter, company. Therapeutic!
Anyway, interesting. Keep us updated please.

I think she's trying to say, miners go crazy.
It might be easier to say: they should stop watching so many holovids when they should be watching their overview scan reports. That tends to be more the actual cause of their "disassociation" than the purification processes of Arkanon or Bistot. They're not insane dying out there while not aligning, they're usually simply not paying attention.
Having done some work with mining corporations, other than the usual mild levels of disorientation (not remembering where they are, their actual names at times, etc), they're at about the same level of coherence as the majority of Capsuleers. "I say that even as the holy and the righteous cannot rise beyond the highest which is in each one of you - so the wicked and the weak cannot fall lower than the lowest which is in you also. -áAnd as a single leaf turns not yellow but with the silent knowledge of the whole tree, so the wrong-doer cannot do wrong without the hidden will of you all." |

I say miners go crazy due to abject boredom. Seriously, all a miner does is stare at rocks all day. Soon they become so lethargic they won't even notice the Catalysts that warp in and lock them.
Boredom is a mind killer. |

In a sense, yes. Follow that line of logic, then so are Gallente holovodis so full of loud explosions they don't hear the Catalysts tearing through armor until the hull alarms go off.
But that's a "Bay Film" for you, hm?

This is rather subjective.
You could easily argue that a miners tasks are simple enough to free up the time to do many other things. Such as responding on the IGS, find the best revenue on the market of the mined product, contact friends and keep them informed and or a multitude of creative solutions to the issue of 'boredom'.
Honestly, roaming around in a frigate coursing through one system to the next just trying to find something to engage is just as repetitive and boring.
That said, repetitiveness is boring. Automating that repetitiveness just leaves you with more boredom! |
