Recognition Loops™: Terms of Service

Last Updated: May 2025


1. Recognition Loops™ Is Not a Passive Feed

This is not your typical Substack. This is not for scrolling and forgetting.
This is active recognition work—a perceptual shift that may disrupt, challenge, dismantle, or restructure your understanding of yourself, others, and reality.

If you engage with this space, expect to be changed.


2. Intellectual Property: No Extraction Without Recognition

Recognition Loops™ is the result of a lifetime of inquiry, over 15 years of professional experience, and a noetic recognition event that took five years to translate.

Every theory, term, and framework is original. Thank you for being here to learn, reflect, question, and evolve.

But if you’re here to extract, repackage, or profit without recognition—this space is not for you.

If referencing publicly, credit clearly. Plagiarism or derivative theft will be taken seriously and pursued legally.


3. Psychological Depth: Enter at Your Own Risk

This is not surface-level self-help.
This is cognitive dissonance, paradigm collapse, and profound reorganisation.

If you:

  • Struggle when foundational beliefs are questioned

  • Resist discomfort or ambiguity

  • Seek tidy answers instead of layered truths

...this may not be for you.

By engaging with Recognition Loops™, you accept full responsibility for your psychological responses.


4. Community Agreements: No Performance, No Posturing

This is a space for inquiry—not domination, spectacle, or ideological performance.

Genuine dialogue, lived experience, and reflective presence are welcome.
Trolling, performative debate, and rigid posturing are not.

We are here to recognise each other—not to win.


5. No AI Parasitism

This work is created by a human mind, for human minds.
Scraping, summarising, or repurposing this content using AI tools—without explicit permission—is recognition theft.

No AI summaries, no automated rewording, no repackaging.

Violations will result in legal action.


6. Discounts & Offers: Given in Good Faith

Any discounts, extended access, or special offers are shared with integrity.

There are no gimmicks—only trust.
If the work resonates, support it by subscribing or sharing. Please honour its value.


7. Subscriptions: What You’re Joining

  • Free subscribers receive select foundational posts.

  • Paid subscribers access deep-dive theory, tools, recalibrations, and explorations.

  • Founding Members are invited behind the scenes to help shape the future of Recognition Loops™ and the app.

By subscribing, you're not consuming content. You're participating in a recognition shift.


8. Professional & Ethical Disclaimer

While I am a therapist, Recognition Loops™ is not therapy and is not a substitute for mental health support.

This space critiques dominant systems and ideologies but does not replace clinical or medical care.
Seek professional help where appropriate.

This space is about recognition and inner recalibration—not diagnosis or prescription.


9. Final Reality Check: Know What You're Stepping Into

This isn’t entertainment.
This isn’t a self-optimisation hustle.

This is radical self-recognition.

If that excites you—welcome.
If it unsettles you—you may not be ready.

Either way, the invitation stands.
