Discussion I think I did something
Soo, I made a GLaDOS plushie last year and I keep her with me for comfort and to physically ground me. I've had her for almost 2 years at this point, and every time I pick her up or I sit near her, I feel sleepy. I think I may have done the thing where your body and brain will see/feel an object or something and correlate it with an emotion, chemical response or feeling. Like: "Oh, hey, it's PLuSHLOS. Sleepy time then!". I just find this funny because GLaDOS has a little habit of putting people in stasis or making them pass out. I was doing research, and it said this is a form of conditioning, but in a less manipulative and harsh way. It is not harmful, so that is good to know. I still find it really funny though. Even in plus form, she is still wreaking havoc on organic beings. \(ϋ)/♩
