🚨 A gunshot to the head inadvertently cured a man’s mental illness.
The 19-year-old, identified only as “George,” had been living with debilitating OCD—washing his hands hundreds of times a day and taking frequent showers—until he attempted su***de by shooting himself in the head with a .22-caliber rifle.
Remarkably, while the bullet lodged in his left frontal lobe, the procedure to remove it did not eliminate all fragments, yet the aftermath brought a startling neurological shift.
Within three weeks of the injury, George’s compulsions had almost entirely disappeared. Over the next five years, he reentered society with stunning progress—holding down a job and becoming a straight-A student in college. According to Dr. Laszlo Solyom, who treated George, the gunshot incident had effectively disabled the part of the brain linked to his OCD without causing broader cognitive damage.
While this case is viewed as an extreme and accidental outcome, it highlights the powerful and still-mysterious connections between brain injury and mental illness—and underscores how much remains to be understood in neuropsychiatry.

An Israeli soldier: “We’re looking for babies, but there are no babies left. I killed a girl, she was 12—but I’m looking for a baby.”

— And yet the West still tries to paint this as “the most moral army. Meanwhile, This is the reality of these blood hungry peoples..

Just 72 hours without a smartphone alters your mental processes, changing how your brain craves rewards.
A new study reveals how short-term smartphone restriction impacts the brain’s reward system.
Researchers found that just 72 hours without smartphone use triggered measurable changes in neural activity tied to reward processing.
These alterations were especially evident in brain regions associated with dopamine and serotonin transmission, key chemicals involved in motivation and pleasure.
The findings also highlighted a link between increased activity in the parietal cortex and rising levels of craving during restriction. These results suggest that even brief periods without smartphone access can modulate the brain’s salience and reward networks, underscoring how deeply our devices are integrated into neural circuits related to desire and attention.
