Spell or Hallucination

If you know a person,

She claimed that "the maid put the spell on my family, at night a small boy will bite my foot, when I kick him away and I heard the sound of crying. Apart from that, she is mumbling at night. My daughter started to speak rudely to me, and did not call me as mother anymore. She moved back to her own house. My husband, he started to scold me in Malay, and also instructed the maid to beat grandsons. Everyone is sided the maid"

No one is believing what she said. Her children claimed that she is just hallucination. She is just thinking too much because of her experience in stroke. After she got a stroke, things started to change. Her family did not treat her well.

What is your advice?

Is the maid put the spell on her family?

Is she just thinking too much?

    Projection plus delusion = attitude of depression.

    It could be due to stroke that her movement is limited, so the maid took care all the things most of the time and maybe the family become more rely on the maid, instead of her anymore.

    Therefore, a feeling of jealousy developed? Could be... haha.

    Stress due to stroke + Stress due to lack of affiliation + many other negative thinkings = mentally break down.

    For depression case, counseling alone is not really that helping as the patient is thinking illogically. This is the symptoms of depressed person. So, it is advisable to seek psychiatrist help. It is more proper for psychologist to do their job after they have been calmed down by the medicine.

    If there is voices heard by her...it could be schizophrenia case.. haha

    haha. saja :P

    first of all, this person already consider as sick. The words that come out from her mouth could be her own delusional ideas. So, it is better to ask her family whether they identify any changes in her or not. It could be just her own assumption or overgeneralization :)

    no, i have never seen it with my own eyes so i dont believe it :P haha

    For me, i think it is more towards self-fulfilling prophecy :)

    Anyways, its my opinion. haha. Believing in something can release stress also, so why not :P Although it will be seen as "avoidance" xD

Full stop is not a Stop

My study has come to the full stop. After the submission of my final year project, I thought I will be delighted, yet I wasn't. I was apathetic. No more motivation to complete it, I already forgotten my achievement goals, I have given up. During the phase of life, I felt Life is just ain't about perfection. Imperfection in life is the essence of our growth. In order to grow, old proverb saying "no pain, no gain", it indeed applies to everyone of us. Being through thick and thin, sweat and tears, I started to realise that adaptation to sudden change is incredibly important. For instance, we have a goal to get a First Class Honour in our degree program, but our result speaks no to us. Is it show that we are stupid? Nope, it only tells us that it is a piece of paper which might granted us to obtain better job, yet which class you get is not the guarantee to get a better job. The end of college life, is the start of _______ life. People will fill in the blank themselves....

How to train your dragon (Movie)

If you said it is a waste to watch animation or cartoon in cinema, I will reject your idea. Firstly, most of the animation strongly project good moral ethics or values for the reference of audiences especially children. During the childhood, children ought to differentiate the right and the wrong distinctively, neither grey area nor in between. Value always serves as a guideline for us to oblige, not a compulsory because decision is still lied in the hand of human. This movie secretly intruded my deepen heart. It talked about relationship, a bond between dragon and human. The main character, Hiccup chose to save the night fury (dragon) because he saw the fear from its eye. Even a human, we got attracted or closer with people who are similar to us because we feel we able to understand each other better compared to differences. The flow of movie discussed the process of rejection, acceptance, understand and devotion in a relationship. When we are just a stranger for each other, we are re...
