You know when you can’t remember if you left the oven on. That with the existence of your children. Get amnesticized, loser.

Quick question about the SCP universe:

Shouldn’t it be amnesiated instead of amnesticized? Like that conjugation everyone uses sounds like nonsense to me. It’s an effect that amnesiates the subject. I get that the drugs are called amnestics but even then their effects are amnesia in the subject, hhhhck

Ok, so apparently I fell asleep writing this post but the question stands

What does O5-12 thinks about antimemetics...?

memetic, antimemetic

all are the same. ideas, or a lack of them. 

alteration is the only way to combat them. alteration of the mind. the mind is where the idea is stored. 

it is like how the reality anchors combat the benders, by altering reality back. the altered mind must be altered back. either by amnestic or mnestic.

How many amnestics you take if people come to you and speak about their problems?

Surprisingly few. The people who come to me to talk about what’s bothering them are almost always people who share my clearance level, so whenever they tell me something, the higher-ups are able to justify my need-to-know (I’ll  let you in on a little secret: the shrinks get so much more leeway than everyone else when it comes to information that’s on a need-to-know basis).

That being said, I have been amnesticized a couple of times. But even then, it was after I had finished the session with the patient and made sure he (she?) was mentally well enough to keep working. Either that or the patient had been transferred to a psych with a higher clearance, so she (he?) still got the counselling they needed. Can’t remember which.

On a side-note: Avoid anything that could get you amnesticized, if it at possible. The headaches and nausea are awful, and you tend to forget more than just what you’re supposed to. Spent four days not able to open the safe where I keep my snacks, ended up borrowing a saw just to cut it open, and then it turned out that I had been keeping a note with the combination written down under the safe the whole time.

So yeah. Don’t get amnesticized, if you can avoid it. It’s a pain in the ass.
