Self Effects/Effects on Others:
12:00 Mam seemed ever so slightly agitated with me when we were in the car together and although we had a list of things that we needed to get done this afternoon - she wasn’t her usual cheery, carefree self. I have to admit I also found myself over reacting to her and I was kind of impatient with her. After a little while, it occurred to me that the mones could be influencing the situation so I consciously made the decision to change my state… it was either that or the afternoon would have been a train wreck!
I hate to think what would have happened if I wore P79 on it’s own without any socials. From my first impressions, I think it needs a lot of buffering to steer it in the right direction. I wouldn’t mind but I thought the the Instant Shine and P74 would have been sufficient buffers but the P79 seemed to amplify our impatience and anxiety nonetheless. However after making the decision to change my own internal state (putting all my NLP training to good use!) - things seemed to get better and we settled into our usual comfortable rhythm…sort of!
First stop of the day was at the dress makers where I got some interesting hits. The woman who was doing the alterations to my dress was very complementary. Not only did she tell me that my dress was gorgeous but she just stood looking at me for ages. In comparison, when she was measuring Mam for her alterations, she barely looked at her!
13:30 We went to a local restaurant to get something to eat and one of the guys who was serving us, seemed to be flirting with Mam. She didn’t seem to notice but it was so obvious to me. During the time that we were in the restaurant, three different male servers attended to us…and each came back to see how we were getting on. Each made a little small talk with us and seemed very pleasant.
14:30 For the whole afternoon, Mam was organising all the things that she needs to do during the next 10 days and she was CONSTANTLY telling me about it. She literally went through lists and lists of things… in the end I pretended I was snoozing in the car so she would stop telling me about all the stuff. Ironically when I came home and did some reading about P79 - I read in one of the threads that ‘P79 appears to be more of a doing impulse’ and I agree totally…even at 12.5mcg!
Duration: Not entirely sure about this but I would reckon about 4.5 hours…maybe even a little longer. After myself and Mam got home - we both headed in different directions so I couldn’t keep track of the effects.
Other Observations: Next time i’m going to use more Instant Shine! Part of me wonders if Instant Honesty would stop Mam with her incessant list making… hopefully it would make the conversation more meaningful.
