SAD: Disassociative Disorders, and Regional-Seasonal Occupancy.
By Lewis RF Shaw
The Earth is 8 -12 degrees off of it's axis at any time during a generation, thrid from the sun, and we still have competing schools of thought with regards to the acronym for a 'disassociation' to our spiritual center, or 'occupancy'.
The first seems to be seasonal adjustment disorder, the second social anxiety disorder. whether anxious or disassociative, the results are the same in leading to a negative neural framework in perception of thought and ultimately opinion.
Add to this digitization of perception from the expansion of media, as data mining and data solutions, in our cognitive behaiour, we spiral. 'Wall Eye' is the perceptive disorder of digital battery we once conveyed as harmful, but imagine the compunction of the modern age ..

I'm currently using a form of substitution and having success with it; eye exercises for instance, occassionally wearing sunglasses indoors briefly to assess a low light environment. Even what I like to call 'obsissive-compulsive reorder (OCR) to find my center and be aware of my anxiety. The eyes being the most complex organ of the human anatomy my focus on the object leads me feel .. huh.

Post #Traumatic Stress Disorder, and Social Adjustment Disorder (SAD)(US)
I was sent to boarding school at the age of ten in 1992. My paternal British family were British Navy and marines, served for the US and UK. So by the standard of the 1960s-70s my father was a walk in the park, but the generation had it's issues.
From fighting in two world wars to the never ending fear of 'press gangs' and 'forced service' to losing an empire it was safe to say the family clock, in austerity, must at times have sounded chilling. It was also my first nightmare, as a child of 6.
Social Adjustment #Disorder (#SAD) was first documented in Chicago, I think, it was as a way to measure 'noise pollution' in a heavily metropolized area, and it's effects on local inhabitants with no choice.
The results were simple,
The less time they spent near and around the routine of traffic lights and the train timetables the happier the experimentee became.
I at one time had something similar to this living in London, Tokyo, to a lesser extent Boston, and New York. I'm athletic and confident enough on my own but after boarding school for 8 years, as an only child and an international commute of 12,000 kms three times a year to a relatively unhappy house, I found myself restless.
I could read a book a day 200-350 pages from the age of 7, or 8, but by the time I was in Boston for two years I had trouble being myself, let alone sleeping consistently and deeply.
One great day I went to spend a midsemester break with my parents in a suburban area in Florida. The first night there I slept 12 hours, then the next 10. The haze lifted and I was 'me' again.
At first I thought it was the air; Atlantic, and chilly, but warm. But later I found it was the combination; no noise, a fountain near my room window, and a lack of mechianic automation in the sounds while I slept.
If anyone feels chronic symptoms of lethargy, mild anxiety or social neural dislocation,..
I find; sleeping next to a #fountain, if even just in sound, and open window as effective, until you've saved up enough for the airfare!
Joking aside, 'Battered Wife Syndrome' (BWS) and other fear induced flight or fight responses can be redirected by such sounds easily often found on Apps. (Also see. Shell Shock, #LancetJournal)

The following is in hoping there will be more to publicize regarding modern health regionally and seasonally, in respect of our day-to-day psychologies.
