TTSOML #186: Resolution of Shock Effects

Another point I'd like to make, is that mental illness "breakdowns" or what-have-you, do not have TIMED resolution responses to physiological symptoms.

The doctors and hospital noted, as did I, that I had resolution of the symptoms about 45 minutes to an hour after it happened.

I don't know of any mental illness that is on a timeline like that, which causes all of ones bodily functions to be out of commission and then spontaneously resolve.

Mental illness is random and "breaks" are random. They are not on a time schedule and their resolution is not "on the hour".

Actual physical distress from an external source, WOULD and COULD have the same exact approximation of time for resolution, because if the body is responding to something, there may be a particular timeframe in which the body needs to attempt to correct the majority of the disturbances and symptoms. Only some kind of shock explains this.
