7 Things about me that you may or may not know

1. I was an Electrochemist at the Marine Biological Laboratory in Woods Hole, MA for a few years, and as a result I believe science can be a crooked discipline full of lies and false claims.

2. I have been on 4 missionary trips to La Romana in the Dominican Republic in order to build a hospital for Hatian refugees.

3. I practice Judaism as a religion. However, I am not Jewish nor Christian.

4. I played guitar in an ensemble for the New England Jazz Fest.

5. My former best friend and best man at my wedding is no longer my friend because he mistreated my son. My son was so young he could barely stand, and this monster of a man blew marijuana smoke in his face.

6. I believe that I talked to G-d when I was a student at Rutgers in New Brunswick, and this led me to believe that I am the messiah, but not Gd.

7. I have a diagnosed digestive enzyme disorder that causes me to experience a high on opiates if I consume gluten, milk, or milk products. This disorder may have led some people to think I was shy in high school, but under normal circumstances, meaning when I am not eating these foods and I am taking a digestive enzyme, I am much more able to be outgoing.  Also, I have a milk and milk products allergy that if I consume, or sometimes I am just around milk, it causes me to get brain fog.

13th Zerah: I Still Do Believe That I am a Zerahite

As far as my thinking that I am a Zerahite, that much is affirmative.  I belong to the Haplogroup of what I believe to be Esau's, where Zerah is a son of Reuel.  That would be Haplotype I.  The word Zerah comes up in the Torah several times.  In Numbers 26, the Zerahites are mentioned as a son of Reuben, a son and tribe of Israel who lost the blessing.  That much is clear to me.  Edom committed idolatry, and so did I, but once I conceived that I had, I refused to let myself worship, and considered the idol to be horrible, and that I committed idolatry was a terrible thing, but you see, that incident helped me know right from wrong.  That the Zerahites are listed as sons of Reuben, simply to me indicates that the tribe of Reuben adopted me, while I had lost the blessing in my college years.

Reneging on Many of My Earlier Blogs

The data for the first 12 markers are in.  Nearly everyone, and it wasn't many, had a different last name than I.  This means that my Y chromosome comes almost entirely from men who have had sex with someone who is not their wife.

However, I belong to Haplogroup I, and at this point I still believe I descend from the Milesian Jews that traveled to Ireland and Scotland, and did not come to Great Britain during the Norman conquest.  Many of the various names of folks that are genetic matches with me did at least have a family crest.

Family Tree DNA Inc.: My Intent In Research My Y Chromosomal DNA

For almost certain, my line goes back to Jacob Hamilton of Perry County, PA who went on record as a tax payer in his 30s, and is the author of this blog's thrice great grandfather.  As a rumor in my family, when I was young I heard that we probably go back to nobles.  Thus, my intention is to link my DNA to the aristocratic Hamilton Clan of Scotland.  My search of Perry County, PA led me to other Hamilton's of the same area, which are rumored to descend from Claude Hamilton, 1st Lord Paisley.  That connection matches the family rumor that I heard while I was at my paternal grandfather's house.  Additionally, it might be worthy to mention that my paternal grandfather, Harry Albert Hamilton of Natrona Heights, is noted to have several patents attributed to him.

Hamilton Genealogical Society

At http://www.hamiltongensociety.org/ the Hamilton clan often reliably traces our lineage back 1,000 years or so because there are certain markers for a Y Hamilton chromosome.  There are 2 different Y chromosomes that are Hamilton that are considered to be noble, while there are some non-noble Hamilton's, for example, slaves that took on our last name, such that within roughly the last 1,000 years my lineage only had 1 non-paternal event.  We, Clan Hamilton, are Scotland's Preeminent noble family.  Likewise, thoughts of my wife cheating on me, my parents, or grandparents cheating on my fathers side of the family is inconceivable.
I have yet to get tested.  However, I think it would be fun to test my son for Hamilton DNA.

1st Reliably Tracing My Ancestry back 3,000 Or So I Wished


http://www.britroyals.com/ traces Queen Elizabeth II’s ancestry back to Alfred the Great.  Alfred the Great saw about the creation of the Anglo Saxon Chronicle where he traced his lineage to Woden/Odin.  Odin is thus a person, and his lineage is traced in the Icelandic Langfedgatal to Memnon.  Memnon is known to be a person among the Greeks and Trojans, and this lineage is traceable to the Royal House of Troy, which Dardanus founded and in 1 Maccabees 12 this lineage is said to be the brethren of the Jews.

This shows that Queen Elizabeth II and I are cousins:

Earth is Home, Too Often I Am in Space

I have bipolar, but my depressions are few, as I, my family team, and my doctors are fight for me to be on earth.  Too often I am in outer space, and I need people, especially my wife to help real me in so that I can be on terra firma.

Being on earth requires taking a lot of prescribed pills, so that I don’t become manic again.  It is such that, sometimes I relapse, and have even been hospitalized while taking my full prescribed medication regimen.  My wife sees this and she knows that if it was not for my pills, I would be too sick to have a healthy relationship with her.

So, there it is, without pills, I am a space cadet.  Without pills I am lucky to get 45min of sleep on any given night, and it was that way for more than an entire year, as I have tried going off medication before, and it did not work.  When I do not get my pills, the amount of hallucinations, visual, auditory, and tactile, I experience increases, while I am awake.

The reason I believe I am so manic now, is that growing up I was so depressed.  In fact, I believe my parents abused me, working me too hard, as I was so sick and so tired.  At one point, at a job while I was in college, one person called me, “The tiredest human being on earth.”

How can this be so, you may wonder?  The problem was that when I consumed gluten, which is wheat protein and gluten is protein for a few other grains, and casein, which is milk protein.  The opiate in gluten I was tested for was gliadorphin.  The opiate in casein I was tested for was casomorphin.  I knew this from a non-standard urinalysis ordered for me by a very special doctor from the Great Plains Laboratory.  Thus, it is such that I believe that since the first 20+ years of my life were characterized by suppression in food related opiate intolerance, that when these foods were removed from my diet because I had been abused to work when I was so tired I lost my ability to sleep.  However, the answer is not to return to wheat eating and dairy eating, as those are more horrible than 45min of sleep each day coupled with the insanity of delusions, and hallucinations.  It seems that I am best, meaning that I function at an optimal level on pills.

My daily medications are as follows:

2,000mg Depakote ER

1 pill of Serenaide digestive enzyme, such that any opiate I might consume is digested.

6mg of manganese so that I don’t get paranoid.

5,000 IU of Vitamin D:  I have had chronically low levels of vitamin D.

1 Multivitamin

20mg Zyprexa

2mg Klonapin

300mg Thorazine

100mg Benedryll

Sorry Need to Post Corrections


Sorry Need to Post Corrections:
For the past several years I had thought the Hamilton clan was Scottish Highlanders, when in fact the Hamilton Clan is a Lowland clan.
I have tried to change what blogs that I found that had errors.  However, I suspect I have not found them all, and because I have posted so much to the internet, I probably will never fully be able to change all of my mistakes.

Very Sorry,

Craig

“ADHD, autism, schizophrenia, and other major disorders may be more related than we thought.”

“ADHD, autism, schizophrenia, and other major disorders may be more related than we thought.” http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/02/28/psychiatric-disorders-genetics-mental-disorder-autism-adhd_n_2781772.html My extended commentary to a Huffington Post article on the subject of the title. I knew it all along. Why? Because I had them all. As a youngster, I had ADHD, but undiagnosed though every knew I had it. Then, I had a psychotic episode where I was told that my illness would only get worse. That was proven wrong by going not the holistic route, but the comprehensive route, where my family had to dig deep into their pockets in order that I would get healed. The treatment I receive comes by licensed practitioners at Comprehensive Psychiatric Resources in Waltham, MA. The separation of these diagnosis is often according to age more than anything else. Doctors are much likely to play the part of wishful thinking by diagnosing a kid with ADHD rather than make a mistake and give a diagnosis that has more stigma attached to it. If it’s a kid, then they call it autism or ADHD. Why? Everyone has a lot of hope that a cure will come for autism. And, frankly it is practically in style to get a diagnosis of ADHD. The problem is that autistic children become schizophrenic adults. That is when they get a, “You are beyond all hope diagnosis,” which is not entirely true if your doctor uses comprehensive resources like the Great Plains Laboratory. These folks are often able to get their diagnosis reduced to bipolar on a gluten and casein free diet, as I did, but there is no cure for the damage that ten or twenty years of opiates can deal to a young developing mind. Also, I recommend doing the test to see if a gluten free and/or casein free diet is necessary for you or your loved one. Lot’s of people go gluten free and just because they eat healthier, they report a false positive that removing gluten is helpful. That test can hopefully be administered to you through the Great Plains Laboratory that also requires that you work with a licensed practitioner in order to get the test. It will cost you an arm and a leg, and your health care almost certainly won’t cover it, but it can mean the difference between life and death. I, myself, am suspicious of the shots. Mainly, vaccines affect the immune system, and many of these disorders are traceable to the immune system. Thus, the thing that we are observing that has reaction to the immune system may go back as far as the appearance of narcolepsy, as a separate diagnosable disorder, where it was previously unknown to exist, and where these folks are observed to exhibit narcotic symptoms, that appear as if one has consumed opiates. It is that there are certain plants that contain gluten, and milk that contains casein, that these two proteins have opiate derivatives, which affect some people but not others. The fact is that the gut of someone with the illness in question, be it ADHD, autism, schizophrenia, narcolepsy, or chronic fatigue, etc, is fundamentally different. The gut of people with these illnesses digests gluten and casein different from the majority of the population. With respect to the doctor, Dr. Andrew Wakefield's, who lost his job for putting out a journal article for the above mentioned information. If the guy was actually a crook, out to do harm, he would have most likely not said something so profound as a link between vaccines and autism. That statement is so audacious that he would have had to have been a fool to make it and be trying to tell us all a lie. He would have been debunking the goodness of vaccines, and vaccines have long been considered perhaps in the 10 top medicinal inventions ever. Folks this guy was a doctor, and not a dummy. Only a dummy would make up such a lie as to correlate vaccines and autism, and frankly there is not a chance in hell that a doctor would have said that particular thing if it was in fact untrue.

A History of My Mental Illness 2/16/2013

I guess that I first noticed that I was having problems was in 8th grade.  Yes, I was bullied in 8th grade, but that wasn’t the problem.  I stood up to the bully in 8th grade and he backed off from harassing me.  However, this year was the first year I really noticed that my sexual inclinations were greater than my peers.  In fact, they were probably greater than my peers going back to 7th grade, when I dated a high school sophomore.  However, by 8th grade I was too fast for love.  In 8th grade, I can remember dumping a new girlfriend on the first night because she wouldn’t have sex with me.  Lucky her, because even if she had, it wouldn’t have lasted for much longer.

8th grade was a hard fought year for me.  At school, I waged a tremendous war with my evil inclinations, which were the result of powerful opiates that enter my blood through my digestive tract when I consume gluten or casein.  I also had acne too.  Part of it was due to my allergic reaction to milk and milk products, but it was also due to the soap I was using, which was something I didn’t figure out until my first year of marriage with my wife.  So here I was as an 8th grader with my hormones on overload, and when asked to write about what paradise would be for a class assignment, I wrote how I thought death would be paradise.  Obviously, I was very depressed, and in fact depression followed me all the way until I stopped consuming gluten and casein, but that wasn’t until I was about 22 or23 years old.  So, this wasn’t a usual depression, as I was both depressed and hypersexual.  Despite this, and probably because my teachers may have been able to see how hard I waged war with my evil inclinations, I was picked to be the cross bearer at my 8th grade graduation ceremony.

High school had its ups and its downs.  My senior year was actually really fun, even though I had tremendous sleeping problems again due to opiates, but also probably due to sleep apnea.  It seemed like I was always very tired, and in fact, most mornings in high school I wanted to cry because I was so tired, but the tears wouldn’t come.  I often thought of finding a way to skip school because every day I was so tired I wanted to cry.  Yet, I had plenty of friends in high school.  Most of them probably just thought that I was quiet, but inside my greatest dreams at the time were to have a girlfriend and to be able to be a third party in a conversation, a listener to two different people talking, but this is something that I could not do because of the opiates in my system.

High school was also a time where I played in a church band with the woman who eventually became my wife about 7 years ago.  I also worked for Windstar Farm (picking veggies), The Cape Cod Times (as a newspaper hawker), and at the age of 15 or 16, I started at McDonald’s Restaurant in Bourne, back before 9-11, when anyone could travel through Otis Air Force Base.  Most notably I was elected Deputy Speaker of the House of the Cape and Islands Youth Congress, yet it came back to my dad that the girls from Bourne High School voted for me because they thought I was cute.  I was also good at music.  I played in the Academy of Music High School Jazz Combo my Senior year of high school, which was a band that acted as an opening act for local jazz bands.  Though I felt my peers were better than me, the instructor said that I was the most improved musician that year, while another young man was also said by the instructor to be the most accomplished.  He went on to play in the New York Philharmonic.

What struck me most about my sexuality is that I wanted a dirty woman, and the reason for that is that I knew that I would probably just screw up the life of a woman that I deemed as good, so when it came to relations with the opposite sex, I sought the gutter, because I couldn’t live with hurting someone who I cared about.  I also knew that I was emotionally unsteady and childlike and that would not be acceptable for me to be like that with the women who I cared about.  By college, my sexual urges were too great, when left alone I would masturbate to orgasm 35 days a week, which works out to 5 times a day.  I needed to masturbate before I went to class in order to keep myself in composure.

Through high school I got fairly decent grades and got accepted to Rutgers University.  I wanted to go there because Jersey, NYC, and Philadelphia where all close by where I would have access to the most violent mosh pits.  Probably, one reason I liked moshing so much is that the opiates in me prevented me from feeling pain when I hit people.  This was my time.  This is when I could let my evil inclination run amuck for I knew that I had to keep it under wraps when I was in professional settings, such as college, but also in high school as well.

By my junior year at Rutgers, I was a disaster.  I tried as hard as I could to get good grades.  And, I also tried so hard to find the sexual gutter, and the gutter of music, that I had a psychotic episode that changed my life.  I believed that I talked Gd.  Gd told me that He didn’t know that I would get, “So far,” that He was, “Punishing me,” and when I heard that, as an atheist, I instantly believed in Gd, and demanded of him, “Why are you punishing me?”  He said, “I get everyone sooner or later.”  This immediately gave me hope that I could evade the punishment of Gd through pursuing a righteous life.  I repented.  Suddenly, I thought I was being poisoned by carbon monoxide, so I called 9-11.  I was taken away in an ambulance and told, “The best thing you can do now is to tell the truth.”  After that hospitalization for some reason I said I was the Messiah, so that is something I will try to be, but don’t get all excited by it because I am but one person and I don’t believe that I can be the cheering section of the whole world.  What does being the Messiah mean?  I couldn’t really give you a very accurate answer other than it is something that you feel in your soul, and it is a reason to motivate one to achieve a higher level of righteousness.

That semester of my Junior year, I withdrew from all my classes.  My mom nursed me back to health like I was a little baby.  I had grown thin because I couldn’t remember to eat.  I also couldn’t remember to bathe.  When I went back to work, I was so depressed that one of my coworkers said that he thought I was the, “Tiredest human being on earth.”  I was also no longer able to masturbate to orgasm as I had done, and this was one reason for my depression.  Honestly, I had prided myself in my ability to masturbate to orgasm so much, and when I was no longer able to, it was as if I had nothing that I could pride myself in that I did well at.

I was a mess and despite all of it I believed in Gd, and eventually found my way home, which I call Torah, otherwise known as the first 5 books of the Bible.  On the other hand it was my mom that found the doctor who could mostly cure me from my misery, Dr. Greenblatt.  One verse in the Psalms really stuck out, “Delight in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart.”  Though I was hardly delighting, I took the step of faith that if I put one foot in front of the other and surrendered myself to Gd, he would see to it that I would experience healing beyond my wildest dreams, and that turned out to be true.  Gd has blessed me with a wife that is second to none, and the best booble, as I call him, my son, on earth, as a result of my surrender to Him, I think.

About the time I first started seeing Dr. Greenblatt, I got a professionally done intelligence assessment.  It came out that my IQ was 120, but that there were severe gaps in my learning.  For example, when it came of short term memory or working memory, I scored so low that I was told that if my scores were like that across the board I probably wouldn’t have even graduated high school.  That is a really outstanding fact, if you consider that 120 is an IQ level where most folk start to be able to get a Ph.D.  Likewise, on most IQ subjects, I scored 95th percentile, which is only the greatest degree of sensitivity that the test has.  However, more importantly was that my auditory comprehension scored in the bottom 1% of people.  That means as a listener, it was as if I were retarded.  I know folks don’t like that word, but I would not call myself special for having a low auditory comprehension ability, no, rather call me retarded, and that was one of the things that drastically changed when I stopped consumption of gluten and casein, and also started taking an enzyme daily in case something got into my food.  That is, with some dietary changes, my auditory comprehension isn’t half bad.

Another change I was able to make is adding a manganese supplement to my diet.  It has really worked wonders in preventing me from having paranoid delusions.  For me, taking manganese meant things such as no longer feeling that I had to hold my breath in bathrooms because I feared that poisonous gases would come through the ventilation shaft, or that next door the government was spying on me, which used to freak me out back when I was smoking cigarettes.  By now it has been a few years since I have had one.  Sometimes at South Bay it has been very hard not to ask for one.  I can often feel my inner gut crumble, as I think about reaching out my hand to ask for a cigarette, but by now I have been at South Bay for about a half a year, and not asked for one, so perhaps the most difficult challenges have passed.

Lastly, I got a sleep test.  Because the lady giving it asked me not to take my medication that night I was almost unable to get to sleep.  That is because without medication I grow more and more manic very quickly, and I am also given to hallucinations when I am manic.  However, once she could see that I would be unable to sleep without my pills, I took them, and she asked me not to take anymore because she feared that the ambulance would have to be called because I needed so much to fall asleep.  That night I slept only 45min and recorded 54 apneas in those 45min.  Finally, I would be able to wake up almost every morning and not be tired through getting a CPAP machine to help me breath.  This also helped me make a major step forward with respect to mood stability.  However, by then through all the turmoil of changes and various things, I had been out of work, meaning a paying job, for some time.  And, I knew very well that if a business saw the gap in my employment record, they wouldn’t hire me.  All that work to get healthy, and I would not be able to get a job it seemed.  However, I have some hope for employment via volunteering at the MSPCA, finally a place that wasn’t going to turn me down for lack of experience, recommendations, or employment gaps.  My goal is to find a Vet who will employ me through demonstrating an excellent reputation.

True, sometimes I may get hospitalized, and I need a heck of a strong medication regimen, that is constantly changing as pills effectiveness wear off, but really for the most part I am okay.  Since, finding a higher Power, taking anti-psychotic medication, cutting out gluten and casein, taking a manganese supplement, and getting a CPAP, I have experienced a radical change where I went from a nobody to someone who might well not only turn out to be a somebody, but also someone who leads a life of love with my beautiful wife and son.

I would also like to add that I spent a year off medication before my child was born.  This may be why he is such a healthy boy.  However, that year off medication was a very dangerous year.  I was very psychotic, and hallucinations and delusions were very common to my life.  Despite spending a year off of medication, and the setbacks that I incurred from that, I learned something very important and that is that pills will probably always be a very important part of my recovery.  Before I hated the pills.  I thought of them as a crutch, but now I embrace them and consider them as a part of G-d’s plan for me.

Messiah Yes, That Would Be Me, but a God I am Definately Not

"Exodus 33:20. And He said, 'You will not be able to see My face, for man shall not see Me and live.'"


Then, why do people believe that Jesus is God? Christianity is so absurd. By definition in the 10 commandments, if you believe something that is an earthen vessal, even a human is a Gd, then that is idolatry.

The same is true with me. I might claim to be a Messiah, but I am certainly not a God. God is in me as he is in everthing in this creation, permeating it in conceiled omnipresence, as we can't see Gd. Please don't worship me. And, it is true that I believe Gd has spoken to me. God's words to me where, "I am punishing you." So, I said, "Why are you punishing me?" And, Gd's reply was, "I get everyone sooner or later." And, yet I do know that this qualifies as a hallucination, yet I trust that it was real and Gd spoke to me.

Jacob Hamilton Is David Hamilton, the Son of Sgt. John O. Hamilton


Ancestry.com (Most of this information is from Ancestry.com)
Jacob Hamilton m. Catherine Weirirck

Jacob Hamilton (1806 - 1872)

Born in Pennsylvania, USA on 22 Mar 1806. Jacob married Sarah A Hoffman. Jacob married Catherine Weirick and had 13 children. He passed away on 18 Jun 1872 in Liverpool, Perry, Pennsylvania, USA.

*Please note that Jacob was born in 1806, but was not recorded as having paid taxes.  The first record we have of him is paying taxes in the 1830s.

**According to record, Jacob Hamilton did not have parents.  However, he did.  He was in fact born David Hamilton to Sgt. John O. Hamilton and Elizabeth Forster (Foster), and later changed his name to Jacob Hamilton.  The 4 reasons I say this are (first 1-3, than later 4):
Reason #1.  David/Jacob had three children with the same names.
Reason #2.  David/Jacob both lived in Perry Co. Pennsylvania.
Reason #3.  Where David disappears from record, Jacob enters record, old enough that he should have already paid taxes by his age, but with no record of having been born at all.  This was also a time when many Americans where complaining to the British who then owned America that the British where giving taxation without representation.

Catherine Weirick (1812 - 1858)

Born in Liverpool, Perry, Pennsylvania, USA on 15 Aug 1812 to Christian Weirick and Anna Maria Hauer. Catherine married Jacob Hamilton and had 13 children. She passed away on 8 Aug 1858 in Liverpool, Perry, Pennsylvania, USA.

The story of Hon. John Hamilton is incorrect.  He was exiled to America.

John O. Hamilton, Sr.
Comes to America



John O. Hamilton, Sr., and his brother whose name is supposed to have been William, came from northern Ireland and landed at Baltimore about 1763 or 1764. John O. Hamilton, Sr. married Elizabeth Forster, (Foster), whom he met on shipboard.John Jr., was born on November 1, 1765, in Baltimore County, Maryland.The family moved thence into Bedford County, Pennsylvania, where the son John at thirteen years of age enlisted in the Revolutionary War. The father was already an army sergeant. The Children of John and his wife Elizabeth included:



John O. Hamilton, Jr. Born Nov 1, 1765

James Edward Hamilton Born abt. 1769

Samuel Hamilton Born abt. 1774

David Hamilton Born abt. 1776

Sarah Hamilton Born abt. 1778

*In the early part of the eighteenth century there lived in Northern Ireland a family of Hamilton's of Scotch-Irish blood, descendants of Sir Claude Hamilton of Scotland. In this family there were two sons. John and William, perhaps other children. One of these boys, having plucked a rose from the King's garden, incurred the displeasure of the King, causing his banishment from England. As a result of this banishment the brothers took a ship for America. On shipboard they met a young miss named Elizabeth. John became enamored with this Elizabeth and after landing at Baltimore, these two were married. This is the same John and Elizabeth who are the ancestors of the Hamilton family whose lineage is partially traced in this volume, and this same John became a sergeant in the Revolutionary War under Captain Isaac Seeley. His war record will be found elsewhere in the list of war records in this volume. In the spring of the year 1795, four sons of Sergeant John Hamilton, John Jr., Edward, Samuel, and David left their homes in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, came down the Ohio River on a flatboat and landed on the northern bank of the river at Fort Washington, later a town called Losantville on this site, on ground where Cincinnati is now located.
