I think that my naked thorn hill climb of September 5/6, 1991,
which is described on my Salmon on the Thorns web page,
acted as thorn acupuncture to awaken my hands and feet.
For a couple of days after the incident I had to wrap metal
cutlery in paper napkins since otherwise I was getting
shock sensations in my hands.

What were the origins of acupuncture?

Why were you naked?
Weren't you concern about getting cited for "indecent exposure?"

Was the cutlery powered by batteries or connected to an AC
outlet via power cord?

If not, how were they shocking you?

Where was the electric current coming from?

I was extremely manic and had just done a sun stare on the
beach, observed by some people, prior to which I had
gradually stripped down as I proceeded along the beach.
The incident is described in detail on my Salmon on the
Thorns web page (see my sig). The beach in question
is not far from a nude beach.

No, there was nobody around. After the thorn hill climb (and
a blue rose vision near the top) I ended up on someone’s
doorstep and when the homeowner came to the door I
asked him to call an ambulance.

No, of course not.

I don’t know, I am just reporting on the shock sensations, which
occurred for metal but not for other materials. Perhaps the
electric current resulted from bioenergetic flow between the
thorn wounds, shorted by the metal cutlery.

Appears to be a very distressing ordeal.

How did you feel while in this manic state?

I’m not sure if bioenergetic flow in meridians has been scientifically
measured but acupuncturists base their practice on it, and surely it has been
researched in China.

How did you feel while in this manic state?
It started out with a shower of ideas (not voices, just inspiration)
and a reduced need for sleep, and a euphoric feeling, and
progressed to my eventually being inspired to do the naked
sun stare, thorn hill climb, and blue rose vision. During
the sun stare I was somewhat swept away, or carried away,
or filled with divine inspiration. Then on the thorns I of course
was not feeling euphoric. If I had voices or regular visions
(not just the blue rose vision when I was highly manic) then
I would be diagnosed as schizoaffective but since my first
mental health episode was a long mild depression in 1986
and my second was a clear-cut mania, I was diagnosed as
bipolar type 1 and treated with lithium (plus initially with
Ativan and haloperidol as well). These days I am on
1250 mg divalproex sodium and 7.5 mg olanzapine nightly.
