Hi! It’s ‘Clint’ from the old server. I know my one year suspension may not end for about another month on the old server.
I’m mostly just posting to say hello again, and I don’t think I’ll be posting much in the future on schizophrenia forums.
I do not deny that phenotypically, my psychiatrist still diagnoses me with schizophrenia, and I still take a very low dose of medication for it.
However, during my nearly one-year absence from the forum, I finally decided to get a full genome analysis done. I chose Nucleus Genomics. According to the ‘Nucleus’ app, currently, the biggest things that I have a high probability for that they’ve told me about are Bipolar Disorder and high IQ. My probabilistic tendency for Bipolar Disorder is supposedly nearly 2 standard deviations above the mean, and my probabilistic tendency for IQ is nearly 2 standard deviations above the mean, according to the analysis. My probabilistic tendency for schizophrenia, by contrast, is almost a standard deviation lower. One genetic counselor even told me I wouldn’t be considered high risk for schizophrenia.
So, although I am still diagnosed, I think that I would feel like a fool posting much here. People could point fingers in the future and say: “This fool should have known he was bipolar and not schizophrenic. Look at his genes!”
Anyway, I enjoyed reading and posting in my ignorance of my own genes. I hope the forum continues to do good things. - Clint
No it’s weird, it’s totally random. It didn’t chirp for like 40 minutes after i replaced the battery, then it chirped twice in two minutes, then silence for an hour then again. It’s random. I’m looking up stuff on the web, they say if it’s random it might be dust. I really wish I had some compressed air.
EDIT: Okay so i held down the test button like an article said to for 30 seconds and now the light on it is bright green and solid. Maybe it’s good now knock on wood.
I just don’t want to bother the neighbors so hopefully I can get it silenced within the hour, we live in a townhouse
hope its good now, whenever i had the chirps id unplug the battery which i wouldnt recommend in general to anyone. one time i actually fell asleep while heating oil in a pan on stove that ignited and filled house with smoke, had to use the fire extinguisher and couldnt see in house for an hour, that is when i gave up on cooking deep fried food lol
listening to latest forth wanderers album, been listening to their old music for many years, they split up then randomly got the group back together earlier this year
