This site is about a conflict of human physiology that shaped history but was undetected until the 1960's.

In the entire history of man on the planet Earth this phenomenon was discovered only once.

It caused mental breaks for office workers.

You will find this material hard to believe.

This phenomenon is explained in first semester psychology lectures where students don't believe it either.

For that reason I wrote a demonstration that will allow you to experience the phenomenon.

The Everquest Connection page has the explanation and assumes you have not taken basic psychology.

The solution for this problem was the office Cubicle.

This site argues that the this phenomenon causes College Suicides and Missing Students.

The phenomenon causes mental events around the world, Chaco Canyon.

If you use computers in unprotected workspace such as homes, dorms, student apartments, and small business offices read ...Prevention... at the bottom of most pages.

Long term exposure can cause severely altered mental states. Qi Gong Kundalini Yoga

OCD

Today I found San Francisco news anchor Jeff Bell's site and listened to audio interviews linked on that site. What struck me for the first time was his mention of anxiety connected to OCD. Further he mentioned the onset was in his teenage years. If you are a frequent visitor and reader of this site you already know what that means.

Exposure from Subliminal Distraction in classrooms spikes with the growth spurt of puberty. Any psychiatric or behavioral complaint that begins near puberty should be suspected as being caused by SD.

The first thing to do is examine the outcomes of activities that we already know involve SD. Kundalini Yoga and Qi Gong are those activities.

Fear and trembling is cited as one outcome on many help sites about these exercises. Here on this site, I use the term unattributed fear. By that I mean fear that has no object of the fear. Victims have intense fear but cannot say what they fear.

That is seen in cases such as day trader shooter Mark O. Barton. He left suicide notes describing such intense fear he did not think he could stand it. Mary Shotwell Little, bank worker, Atlanta 1965, began to fear going out at night but could not say what she feared. She concocted an elaborate escape leaving a blood smeared car and is still missing more than forty years later. Whitehouse attorney Vince Foster was so afraid that his wife said she would have to get in bed and hold him so he could get to sleep. He eventually committed suicide and the case is so strange that conspiracy buffs think he was killed by the Clintons.

So how does this connect to OCD. I have no current investigation on this but I suspect that this fear is being transferred by some who have exposure from SD. They associate it with their contemporaneous activity as OCD behaviors. A normal concern that you don't remember if the stove was turned off, the iron left on the ironing board, or if the door was locked becomes the subject of an altered mental state of anxiety. It was Jeff Bell's audio interview describing the depth of his anxiety that bought this possibility to my attention.

In our family case Connie insisted on going to the county court house on a University of Alabama game day to find the trial about her problems at work. (There had been no problems at work,) This is not the same as OCD but the delusional beliefs are similar. Those with a narrow focus of their delusional system act normally everywhere else. Both systems revolve around a general state of pointless anxiety.

Bell uses phrases like "at my worst" to describe the waxing and waning of his symptoms. To me this suggests he has a current location and source of exposure from SD.

His wife mentions dealing with his impossible beliefs. He would drive around the block over and over after hitting a pothole to be sure he had not accidentally struck a pedestrian instead of the pothole.

Update

Saturday June 9ath 1:30 pm

Since the original post I have sent messages to OCD sufferers who have Blogs and access through emails.

I am interested in starting an Internet project on OCD. If OCD is connected to Subliminal Distraction a knowledge of the problem would allow those who have intrusive thoughts and repetitive behaviors to search for places of exposure and sources of repeating movement in peripheral vision at those locations.

Blogs from the UK say many victims of OCD and BDD started in primary schools about the sixth grade. That is the point when growth spurred by puberty begins.

In the United States the difference in body size and level of maturation for sixth grade students is so pronounced that many school districts have moved the sixth grade to a separate facility. That is the case for Tuscaloosa city schools. The Tuscaloosa county schools still have grades 1/6 together. (Dated material from five years ago.)

Any disorder that begins near puberty should be suspected as caused by Subliminal Distraction.

At present I do not have enough knowledge of these disorders to write a page to allow self help.

Until I am able to do that use the Panic Attacks page for that purpose.

Exposure from Subliminal Distraction is the same in any disorder connected to it.

Where and how does exposure happen?

Around the world too-small single-room living arrangements allow the creation of the "special circumstances" for exposure from SD. Here in the United States there are Culture Bound Syndromes tied to locations and businesses that do not use Cubicle Level Protection. Going Postal is a CBS of the United States named for sudden unexplained violence that happened in Post Offices. US Post Offices are built like barns with no dividing walls in many locations. It is easy to create exposure from SD. The Goleta shooter was a mail sorter. That activity requires complete mental investment during the sorting work. If the work floor does not use Cubicle Level Protection there will be exposure and that exposure will eventually cause the expected mental break. Other outcomes from exposure too low to cause the sudden mental event are startle matching behaviors like Jumping Frenchmen of Maine Syndrome

How does this explain OCD?

Exposure from Subliminal Distraction does not contain information. It is just a stimulus when movement is detected in peripheral vision sufficient to trigger a vision reflex.

The subliminal detection for these reflexes happens in the brain below thought reason and consciousness.

One thesis of this site is that the stimulus can perceived to be reinforcement of existing thought or concerns. In the case of mass shootings by postal employees there was an existing dispute underway. Subliminal Distraction acted as accidental subliminal operant conditioning to reinforce beliefs already held.

The constant subliminal appreciation of threat represented by repeating detectable movement in peripheral vision eventually colors thought and reason creating paranoia. Additional exposure creates unattributed fear. The two effects combine to form a subliminal envelope of thought influences. Your thought processes are negatively and subliminally shaped.

Where is the evidence of that?

Qi Gong and Kundalini Yoga exercises produce the "special circumstances" for exposure from Subliminal Distraction. Eyes-open mental concentration to correctly perform the exercise replaces the concentration of a knowledge worker in a business office. Movement of those group exercise members replaces the movement of office staff beside a concentrating worker in incorrectly designed offices.

The exercises both produce first psychotic mental breaks when too many sessions are done in a short time frame. But long term low level exposure eventually produce fixed altered psychotic mental states.

Users begin to believe they have superhuman or supernatural powers. In Qi Gong those beliefs include the ability to throw chee energy from the fingertips to strike others.

These beliefs do not spring from any input caused by Subliminal Distraction. They are part of the system of beliefs and the instruction set of the exercises. The beliefs are reinforced through Subliminal Distraction stimulus when their mind understands the input as stimulus.

They are accepted because the subliminal vision input alters how our thought processes work and how we perceive reality. It happens as the brain attempts to source and use the subliminal input. This is similar to the loss of function in thinking of schizophrenia.

When users seek medical improvements through Qi Gong they are told to think of general good health not the specific complaint they have. The body's normal regenerative processes will deal with many medical problems over time. Users begin to believe they are better through operant conditioning. If there is no improvement they are told they started to late in their disease's progress for Qi Gong to help them.

How can this be tested?

Use the Panic Attacks page here to investigate your own exposure.

Prevention: This section is now repeated at the bottom of most pages.

The rare occurrence of the injury establishes that is difficult to create enough exposure to cause an injury. But when it does happen the consequences are serious, possibly fatal.

Our personal experience was intermittent human traffic during eight-hour workdays for thirty calendar days.

If you have a tower CPU mount it under your desk. That's the way they position it in a cubicle. The hard drive busy light is about the height of your low peripheral vision if you put the tower on the desk. Desktop reading of text or writing notes beside the keyboard on the side of the monitor away from the tower makes the blinking hard drive busy light appear to approach from behind when you turn to view the screen again.

If you have a computer work station/desk in which you turn ninety degrees to write or do other non computer work, turn off the monitor when you turn aside. Remove screen savers in this instance. The movement, animation for example, in your screensaver, two-dimensional movement, might well be detected by your peripheral vision at close range. Alternately cover the monitor screen.

All home, apartment, or dorm computer workstations are in unprotected workspace. To change that put the computer in a quiet room with no possible movement. If that is not possible in a dorm or apartment position the computer so that your peripheral vision can see only stationary walls as you use the computer in a busy room. In Cubicles and 'Systems Furniture' these protective features are achieved with peripheral vision blocking panels and corner seating positions. It is called 'Cubicle Level Protection.'

If you use computer or CD-ROM games for many hours day after day, the game playing position should follow the same rules as the computer workstation. Battery operated games will not run long enough on a single rechargeable battery to cause a risk for SPVP.

Although a laptop does not have a visible blinking light in peripheral vision the same rules apply to your work position. There should not be human traffic moving to you from behind. There should be nothing behind you, which could enter your subliminal peripheral vision field as you turn your head while working at the laptop and be mistaken for threat movement.

Only movement coming from behind you into your Subliminal Peripheral Vision can cause a peripheral vision reflex. If the movement source approaches you from ahead then enters your Subliminal Peripheral Vision from conscious sight there can be no peripheral vision reflex.

Repeated for Emphasis:

A single session or rare sessions will not cause this problem.

It is the same day after day long hours of play or computer use with detectable movement in ‘Subliminal Peripheral Vision,’ which would form the basis of a risk for SPVP injury.

Exposure can be cumulative

The brain’s detection system only evaluates movement. There is little recognition of the nature of the object in peripheral vision. If you have several hours exposure from human traffic at the library, while reading at an open table or seated in a reading room chair, followed by long hours watching TV with a critically misplaced ceiling fan sweeping detectable shadows around the room, the combination of those two behaviors might cause the problem. The suggestion is that either activity alone would not consume enough exposure time even if the critical movement is present.
