Training Psychiatric Service Dogs
I had the idea for this article several years ago, but here recently I have had the overwhelming urge to write it as I have been faced with reports of several "professionals" (whether lawyers or doctors or even staff at libraries or restaurants) having insistence on knowing what certification the dog has passed, stating that in order to be a service dog that it has to have special papers, or deeming a well-behaved service dog unwelcome simply because it has no identification.

I Feel Powerless. Content Warning.
Rough morning, already wake up to my husband calling me I was happy about that. I know it has nothing to do with me per say. I wish there were laws with countries that protected others. Unfortunately, that's not how the world works. My toxic mother-in-law has crossed the line many times. Involving me and my husband, I never had a choice the way she fights is like a cobra with psychological warfare. I never know when she will strike, I wish I had a cigarette this morning. She has stolen my husband's money, she has stole what little found he has to find my nephew instead of walking her fucking lazy ass to the story because taking my husband's food is more I don't know demented. I don't have a choice it's not like my mother no Petra Aurelien is relentless. There are rats in the house, garbage around the outside and food set in the open. I wish my husband would just report her to the cops and she would be sent to Jail and my father in law walks around the house in front of my husband traumatizing him further he is naked. When I was there thankfully, he never did that, but there attitudes have changed to show there true colours. What's worse is I've not seen my husband in a year and I get to witness all this shit and not have a say on my husband's safety. Do you know how it feels I can't do anything about this. I'm tired of seeing him suffer no one deserves this. With each passing day, my husband sinks deeper into depression and the only thing protecting him is God. My worst fear is what if these people take things to far and he can't take it no more and tries to take his own life. I want justice for everything they did to him thus far I want justice so bad I crave it. I will not lose my husband anymore; I wish there was a way to report these crimes even though I'm all the way here.

Are Cell Phones Mutating the Shape of Our Bones?
This is an unexpected new topic that has recently been all over the media. It stems from a scientific report that suggests using phones and tablets can cause serious and long-lasting changes to our bodies—and not in the way that you might think. What if cellphones were so powerful that they could change the shape of our bones? David Shahar and Mark Sayers, biomechanics specialists from Australia's University of the Sunshine Coast, have been studying biomechanics for the last several years. Biomechanics examines how mechanical rules apply to living things, such as people running and insects beating their wings. Osteobiography is another area of study for Shahar and Sayers. Osteobiology is the study of determining an individual's life story from their bones. It has long been known that skeletons adapt to an individual's lifestyle; for instance, some remarkably large skeletons were discovered in 1924 on the Pacific island of Tinian. Stone structures nearby explained the substantial nature of the island's bones because the islanders worked with heavy stones, which naturally led to the development of larger arms, legs, and collarbones. According to Shaw Heart and Sayers, youths' bones are being shaped by contemporary technology. The reason for this is that there is a structure known as an external occipital protuberance, or EOP Osteobiology, which Shahar and Sayers study also includes, is used to infer information about an individual's life from their bones. It has long been known that skeletons adapt to an individual's lifestyle; for instance, some experts and commentators have been more colorful and have described the EOP as a foam ball or a devil-like horn, but in reality, it is a growth of bone located in the back of the skull that is connected to the nuchal ligament, an important ligament that plays

Narcissism And Personality Disorders. Content Warning.
Are all personality disorders the outcomes of frustrated narcissism? During our formative years (6 months to 6 years old), we are all “narcissists”. Primary Narcissism is a useful and critically important defense mechanism. As the infant separates from his mother and becomes an individual, it is likely to experience great apprehension, fear, and pain. Narcissism shields the child from these negative emotions. By pretending to be omnipotent, the toddler fends off the profound feelings of isolation, unease, pending doom, and helplessness that are attendant on the individuation-separation phase of personal development.
