What's to prevent your abusive-relationship person from committing further abuse by slipping the drug to his/her victim Oberon-style?
What thou seest when thou dost wake,IN THE COMMENTS: furious_a said:
Do it for thy true-love take,
Love and languish for his sake:
Be it ounce, or cat, or bear,
Pard, or boar with bristled hair,
In thy eye that shall appear
When thou wakest, it is thy dear:
Wake when some vile thing is near.

I wonder if they watched Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and are going forward in spite of, or are going forward because of.

So it gives you amnesia?
The medicine men are trying to catch up and get rich. Will their drug dealer's ads advise getting ER treatment if still in love after more than 4 hours?
The horse tranquilizer drug quaaludes is already in use for this.
Actually this market niche was filled earlier by Christian's experience of having all of the love of God poured out into their hearts by the Holy Spirit.
Those Who Listen in the Walls are very concerned about such pharmaceutical advancements.
Am I going to be in love today? Just give me a percentage.
Those Who Listen in the Walls know when you know they are there. The drugs that make you forget they are there are OK; other drugs, not so much.
When it is very quiet you can hear Those Who Listen in the Walls. It is sometimes hard to make out the words.
Why does the phrase, "good intentions", keep running through my head?
I wonder if they watched Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and are going forward in spite of, or are going forward because of.
Reminds me of the movie Brain Candy.
The frequencies employed by Those Who Listen in the Walls do not get picked up by recording devices. You play back the tape and people say "See? There's nothing there."
It doesn't matter if you play the tape forward or backward: this is not the Beatles.
Those Who Listen in the Walls know you want others to hear them, just to prove they are there.
Contrary to popular belief, tin-foil does not protect one from Those Who Listen in the Walls, whether in hat form or not.
It can be maddening: you can hear Those Who Listen in the Walls, while a person standing right beside you is oblivious.
What Those Who Listen in the Walls say can often sound nonsensical, but if you concentrate on it long enough the Message becomes clearer.
Sometimes it takes hours of concentration; sometimes, days.
A week can go by, and then: A-ha!
Message received.
True MDMA "ectasy" (methylamphetamine) already has been shown to act as you describe. Before it hit the illegal scene, researchers reported almost amazing results with married couples were were at each others' throats. A few minutes after taking it, they were acting like newlyweds, apologizing for their bad behavior and practically having sex on the spot. Unfortunately the stigma of illegal club use put a halt to most of this casual non-critical research. If you took ectasy and didn't see those effects please note that most confiscated club ectasy seems to be chemicals other than MDMA primarily.
Of course there are side-effects and a lot more research is needed. But you have to do the research before anything came come of this.
Already been done. Love Potion #9.
Yes...they're describing Ecstasy.
Also, Brain Candy rocked!
It is not as if Those Who Listen in the Walls are telling you to do things; it is more like a suggestion.
Often the suggestions seem quite reasonable.
Those Who Listen in the Walls might suggest you possess superpowers of which you were previously unaware.
It would be silly not to use them.
Darrell is right. It was also used with dying people and their families to get them to feel and express their love openly.
I have chemo brain and it's like eternal sunshine of the spotless mind. I am sure it's likely that bad and traumatic things have happened to me, but I can't remember them.
I am unpartnered, but if I were partnered, imagine how that translates to wiping the slate clean, twenty years into a marriage. That could be a mercy.
Pharmaceutical cocktails to boost the love?
Why not regular cocktails?
I feel quite loving after martinis, Manhattans, and G&T's.
For instance, Those Who Listen in the Walls may suggest that you can hear what people are thinking. Then: why yes, you can.
People will try to deny it.
"That's not what I was thinking," they may say.
Those Who Listen in the Walls can give you the Will to know otherwise.
"Remember what the dormouse said."
When they deny it you can tell they know better because their Soul turns Orange.
Those Who Listen in the Walls give you the power to see this.
It can be sad to see what is in people's Souls that they deny. It makes them lash out at others in a passive-aggressive way. Such behavior is usually a sign. When you call them on it they only become more unreasonable.
Other times the Power may be to live five seconds in the Future.
You can hear what they will say moments before they say it. It can be disconcerting.
Those Who Listen in the Walls know that five seconds can be the difference between now and right now.
Now I know why VHS won out over Beta(max).
If it is involuntary, if it the result of drug-induced compulsion, then it isn't love.
When the Power fades and you are back in the present it can be both a relief and a letdown.
You could try to explain the sensation in detail but people won't believe it anyway: you can hear them think this, even if they do not say it.
Their Souls are Green.
Re: "Now I know why VHS won out over Beta(max)."
I knew you were going to say this five seconds ago.
pharma ha already fucked the mental health field so why not.
It is neither a blessing nor a curse: it is just the Way Things Are.
Those Who Listen in the Walls are rational, even if the Message takes time to make sense.
When you are five seconds into the future the Understanding comes quicker. By about five seconds.
If it is involuntary, if it the result of drug-induced compulsion, then it isn't love.
It didn't necessarily work that way with strangers. The married couples in therapy instantly did what therapists had been asking them to do for six months--they recalled all the good times (preferentially, apparently)--and all the reasons they fell in love with that person to begin with--e.g. seeing them at dawn's light, looking like the most beautiful women they had ever seen. There was thought and memory involved--not just some chemical reaction.
You can hear people arguing inside their heads, desperately hoping it doesn't show. Five seconds later, they say what they know they shouldn't have said.
You could try to warn them -- "what you are about to think, hold back" -- but they won't believe you, they never believe you.
It is hard to set someone straight in less than five seconds, even if they Believe.

Who says "Romance is dead"?
And it lasted beyond the monitored session. It actually saved some marriages that had reached the "throwing" and name calling (rather than actual names) phases.
In this state Memories come in five-second intervals. If you count "One-Mississippi, Two-Mississippi" it matches up perfectly.
Re: "Artificially aroused men pursuing artificially enhanced women under the influence of artificially induced emotions."
Genius.
I will repeat that line in my head in five-second intervals and laugh each time.
Yo, betamax, you're being paged in the next post!
Because "the walls have ears".
They are using MDMA for some vets with PTSD, who are all self-funding this alternate treatment as the personal breakthroughs are quite evident.
The illegal nature of these drugs is understandable, yet a shame. Boomers sort of crapped in their own bed, old policies and politicals (hello, Joe Biden) have let recreation set research back.
Thankfully, the times they have a changed.
"Who says 'Romance is dead'"?
"Romance" is just a chemical reaction of the brain and body, even without the introduction of pharmaceuticals.
True enough. We are just electro-chemical machines who will on day be manipulated in every way conceivable.
FYI, it's called Tequila
Thank you, thankyouverymuch.
As a followup to my nonpharmaceutical cocktail comment:
A friend was pregnant for the first (and only) time, and she was at her first prenatal visit at the OBGYN.
He asked, do you drink?
She replied, how do you think I got this way?!
LOL
