i'm grateful this site just didn't throw me out.

i really hope you can forgive me and don't take seriously the contents of what i've send that night.

The DNA of a chimpanzee is for 99% the same as the human DNA.
So when i re-read what i've send that night it makes me more thinking about the chimp-part.

The moment i was sending it i didn't realize what could be the possible consequences of it, i didn't feel it or just didn't think about it. i also had too much selfconfidence.

i also have to say that just before i went out, i didn't even plan to send anything.
i did plan it, but then i already was more in a tipsy state; considering the fact that we are talking about consciousness i thought i'll send it for the sake of TOE; maybe it could contribute something to what we are discussing. i didn't expect i would say things like this. Anyway, i don't consider the contents of what i stated important, and i hope you also don't; i only find interesting what this could mean about consciousness.

Anyway the moment i was stating it, i didn't feel anything about the possible consequences. However, the morning-after, when my amount of consciousness started to increase again, i did feel very badly (emotionally) about the contents of what i stated. To be honest with you i almost felt very bad for a whole week.

So it seems that these kind of 'pleasures' also have a price.

Maybe you might not belief what i'm stating now or you might think i'm just faking it.
One of my personal philosophies is that honesty is the best policy. Because i'm a very bad liar. ( i think sometimes to be able to lie you need higher IQ and EQ and...).

So i can confirm i'm not lieing. For me i don't consider that lieing would contribute much to a TOE.

So maybe this could contribute something to what we are talking about.

(i also can confirm that that night was the only one during which i was sending things to here in such a state)

The only thing i can send you is how i experienced it.

i can tell you that the moment when i was stating, i still felt i, but i was in a different state (less conscious). The day-after
(when i was in my normal state again), i still felt i; i also remembered a bit what i stated but i still didn't feel emotionally bad; but the moment when i started re-reading what i stated, then i felt bad. It was like looking in some kind of a mirror for the first time.

However i don't consider my unconsciousness as something which dictates or commands me what i have to do. If it would command me, i think it would already have brought me in a lot of trouble. On the other hand i consider unconsciousness more as a signal (like with animals); but i think in the end it's the consciousness which decides what you're going to do. Of course the consciousness has its roots in the unconsciousness.
OK, this all true.

i think there are 3 parts here: the unconsciousness (hidden thoughts and emotions and instincts); the I-consciousness (thoughts and emotions which you are conscious of); the upper-I (the outside world).

The unconscious instincts are being brought in agreement with the demands of the outside world by the I-consciousness (what you think and feel).

What you think and feel is consisted of what you think and feel about yourself, what you think and feel about your environnement and what you think and feel about what your environnement thinks and feels about you.

When someone had too much alcohol, then (just like in a clear state) he won't be conscious of his hidden, unconscious emotions, instincts,...

However he will be conscious of what he thinks and feels about himself, what he thinks and feels about the outside world and what he thinks and feels about what the outside world thinks and feels about him.

But this information is memorized when he's still in a clear state.

Of course, when using alcohol, his reactions are working slower, also the alcohol is a bit anaesthetizing his emotions and thoughts, also he has too much selfconfidence (like everything he thinks and feels is 100% right). He has less control of body motions.

He will be aware of new incoming data and information (but these are less processed); and at that moment he won't be able to anticipate what will be the consequences when he does something or says something. After saying or doing it, he won't be able to anticipate what the environnement will think or feel about him; also he won't be able to anticipate what he will feel and think about himself, about his environnement, and about what his environnement will think and feel about him.
