1. Food must be avoided: it is a life-preserving substance (privilege) and must only be had when a) it is a diet variety; b) it is absolutely necessary for a situation e.g. exam, or c) it is within the allowed calorie limitation.
2. Any substance that might be considered life-preserving is only admissible when it has been earned by e.g. completing the required work/study; appropriate calorie-restriction; the requisite torture methods have been/will be implemented; suffering and the death sensation have been experienced following torture/food restriction etc.
3. FRIENDS: There is no such thing. Your presence is sickening to others, and contact must be avoided at all cost to avoid embarrassment/emotional pain from rejection. AMENDMENT: Spending time with friends has been allocated status of life-preserving substance (privilege) and therefore company must be earned. It is essential that annoyance/bother caused to others by being in their company is fully apologised for and sufficient punishment administered in the case of causing embarrassment/bother/emotional pressure to others.
4. Appropriate methods of torture: ideally this would be continual starvation, with only admissible substances of diet variety admitted under the current regime. In cases of emergency, cutting should take place, preferably under controlled conditions, with the head being smashed only in absolute need. The preferred method of torture in these situations is the intake of laxatives, at least twice the recommended dose.
5. LOVE: This is not possible, or admissible because a). you cannot be loved by anyone; b). you cause hassle and misery to others who might spend time with you; c). the sensation causes uncontrolled pain from inevitable rejection/embarrassment. Action taken outside the jurisdiction of the Medusa on this emotional matter may cause pain that she will have no ability to manage. Refer all such emotional problems immediately to the Medusa who will administer appropriate torture methods in accordance with the Rules.
6. DO NOT request help from others. You are not worthy of such help/assistance. All such matters must be referred to the Medusa immediately who will administer punishment.
7. PUBLIC CONDUCT: Silence at all times. Speak only when spoken to, NEVER insult (even in jest) or discuss personal matters. Preferably avoid social contact. Your presence is sickening to others, and it is your own responsibility to take the required Avoidance Procedures.
8. Name change and social circle change should occur frequently in order to prevent causing hassle to those subjected to contact for an excessive amount of time.
9. SEX: Avoid at all costs. A). your body is disgusting and b). you are not permitted to take such physical pleasure; c). you are shit.
10. Specific adherence to the Regime must be practised. The Medusa will issue appropriate punishment for ANY cases of the breaking of the Rules.
The Medusa is your guardian. You called her when you had destroyed yourself and caused yourself intense embarrassment. All acts of the Medusa are in accordance with The Agreement of Punishment and are therefore fully justified. Obedience to the Rules is essential, and adherence to bulletins on privilege status is essential.
The Regime allows a maximum of 1,200 kcalories to be consumed per day, but this maximum is stretched to include meals taken in order to protect parents/social occasions (although this latter will under very few circumstances be admitted to occur under Rules 3, 7, and 8). An ideal daily limit is around 800 kcals per day. Weight measurement must be taken daily in order to manage the weight limit.
All social/private activities must be earned by a certain required level of work completed daily. Non adherence to this Rule will result in restriction of privileges for 24 hours. This is NOT negotiable.
All new contacts must be fully informed of your position as regards socialising activity - and strict avoidance must be adhered to as often as possible to in order not to cause bother or upset to those concerned. Punishment for non-adherence is by knife cutting (at least 5 strokes) and/or laxative use. Constant attention must be paid to hidden signals that your presence is causing excessive annoyance to others. This is not to be divulged. In a case of a signal being read, you must withdraw immediately in order to lessen the discomfiture of the other party/ies.
Compliments are to be ignored, because they are not true. Any arguments contrary to the word of The Medusa are not genuine and if not ignored may cause a false sense of "self-worth" not compatible with the Worthless self. All insults/derogatory remarks are to be filed and BELIEVED for they are the truth. It must be remembered that any compliments received during the past were false, and proved to be so. As a result, the Medusa has taken this precaution to ensure that you are not harmed by the effects of disappointment when you find that things you believed are actually false.
There is only ONE argument for worthlessness: you are NOTHING. You have nothing of any value about your person or manner. You are self-obsessed and have a severely high opinion of yourself, and it is the role of the Medusa to correct this at every opportunity to make you aware of your true status as worthless and worthy only of punishment, torture and death. You may NOT request the assistance of others, or ever believe any compliment made to you. Such things are falsities, even when the giver genuinely means it. This is merely the result of giving false impressions of yourself during social contact. Punishment is double laxative abuse and/or lacerations (min. 5 strokes), and withdrawal of food privilege.
DISCONNECTION must be carried out frequently. Removal of phones, restriction of liberties and withdrawal of social privileges (leaving house etc) must form a principal part of this. Contact loss will be five days, during which time others previously suffering your company will be relieved. New social contact must not follow until a month has passed, during which period you will be ALONE. Remaining ALONE will be the basic premise of the act of Disconnection and social contact should only be acceptable when it is absolutely unavoidable.
NEVER pass on emotional feelings of intensity to others. This merely causes excessive embarrassment. The Medusa cannot control the pain of such rejection and it is better to avoid this at all costs. Punishment for non-adherence is 12 lacerations and restriction of calories to a maximum of 500 kcal, or loss of food privilege. Disconnection will automatically take effect during the punishment period.
You are worthless. The explanation for this is that you are YOU. The understanding of the previous decades are proof. No other proof need be given at any time. You are a waste of space and air. Never think any different. You will merely be disappointed and gravely upset if you start to believe otherwise and are proved - inevitably - that this is untrue.
You requested the protection of the Medusa and the above rules are part and parcel of the agreement between the Medusa and yourself. Understanding the truth about yourself with lessen your vulnerability and embarrassment. You are aware to the finest detail how much you are hated by the rest of the world. They are perfectly accurate on this point. In order to offer effective protection, the Medusa must NOT be disobeyed. Your social actions, especially when you attempt to find help (as you have done recently) and discussion of person problems is punishable with 5-10 lacerations and withdrawal of food and privileges. Your problems are nothing, as you yourself are. You deserve nothing more than the protection and punishment of the Medusa. You are not permitted any other thing. You are meant to be alone, and the Medusa will ensure that you no longer cause harassment/bother to others by denying all contact.
You are self-centred, egotistical and narcissistic. Constant discussion of personal problems has caused as many problems to social contacts as the act of merely existing. Thus you must withdraw and disconnect on a regular basis because you are stupid enough to embarrass and annoy other with the selfish act of disturbing others. You have no personal problems - you only have the Medusa. You have no depression, no eating disorder. You are constantly miserable and starving because it is normal for you and it is the only thing you deserve while you are unable to properly commit suicide. An act of immediate suicide may fail, resulting in even more problems because of money wasted on treatment and recovery. You must therefore exist in silence and alone.
You are a talentless piece of shit and the only thing you are worthy of is a slow death by starvation and punishment by the Medusa as you yourself requested. You have no figure, hideously ugly, without a personality, and stupid. NEVER forget this. You cause nothing but problems to others because you mistakenly claim that your "problems" are an illness and therefore worthy of treatment. However, your pain is normality in your condition, nothing more than you deserve, and therefore not an illness, and certainly NOT worthy of treatment.
In order to avoid persistent external torture (lacerations, blasting with either laxatives or diuretics) a constant state of starvation must be maintained at all times. The only acceptable reason for pleasure is through loss of weight: lower figures mean that you are disappearing. Remain alone at all times.
