I'm hypoglycemic, so whenever my blood sugar drops, I become really tired. Lass becomes tired as well.
A dæmon represents what's inside YOU. How you feel deep down. I would say that if you just feel grumpy, the dæmon could still be cheery. But if you're grumpy because of somthing you can't control directly, the dæmon could be affected.

I posted somewhere that a person with Multiple Personality Disorder would have a multiple-form dæmon. Like, their dæmon would be settled, but in more than one form.

I was wondering about how the daemon is related to your mental state too.
When my grandpa and then my nanny had Alzheimer's, they kind of became different people, my nanny's personality changed a lot. I think that if you forget who you are, your daemon might too, and go back to being unsettled. Just a theory, though.
Also, if a person loses their memory because of head trauma or something, I wonder if the daemon's brain would be 'damaged,' too, because would they not just be able to tell their person's history and remind them of things?
I was also wondering how a person in a vegetative state's daemon would be, would they be in a coma as well? Or would they just not be able to reach their person's thoughts.. that's scary. I can't imagine not being able to communicate with jovofer. And if the daemon was awake and corporeal, how could anyone bear to pull the plug?
A bit ramblesome there, sorry.

If the person is in a coma, the daemon would be too. I'm about 99% sure of that.
You know, it's interesting to think about how we have an entire forum where we talk about our daemons and try and figure out stuff like this, but if daemons were physical, this forum probably wouldn't exist.
That was random. And off topic.

Yeah like when you sleep, your daemon sleeps, so your daemon would be in a coma too. That's a really good theory about alzheimers though, it makes a lot of sense. But remember how Farder Coram was really old and had ague but his daemon was beautiful and healthy? Maybe that's how it works for deaf or blind humans too, there's no way it should affect the daemon physically because your daemon is within, not without.

Well, the daemon comes from/is part of the mind, right? So maybe Farder Corams daemon is beautiful and healthy because his mind is fine and healthy, it's just his body which is becoming old and not working as it should. So then it would follow that people with physical disorders would have normal daemons...but people with mental disorders would have slightly odd or unhealthy looking daemons, which i think makes sense. It would also work with the coma think; when you're mind's down, your daemon's mind is down too. But isn't that like saying that the daemonis the mind? I see mind and soul as two diffrent things and if jsut because you have a mental disorder in this life that damages your mind, i don't think that in anyway could that affect your everlasting soul.

Hm.....Well...If you have a disorder that effects your personality, then your daemon would be effected. That would typically be mental disorders. If your head is screwy, then...yeah. The mind and the soul are interconnected. But physical problems don't usually effect your personality, so your daemon wouldn't be effected.

I like that theory. *hugs it*
Such a strange child....How can you hug something that's not a physical being?
I hug you don't I?
Point.

Many people in comas are entirely aware of their surroundings, and have just lost control of their body.I have a cousin who went into a coma and nobody thought she would make it but she did and she says she remembers everything from when she was comatose

Yes, I believe people with mental disorders would have off-dæmons. Even small disorders. It just wouldn't be as readily apparent.
And while we're talking about it, Callida changes color with my moods, whether it is bright orange with a bright red tail tip when I'm happy, orange with black streaks in her fur and a black tail tip when I'm angry, or different shades of brown while depressed depending on the level of depression.

Cool, yeah I've noticed that Tark changes with my moods too. Like today, he was a really coool butterfly, not like he has been before, with tawny camouflauge pattern on the outside and blue inside, but really bright blues and pinks and yellows. And pointy. ^.~ I've been in a good mood all day....

Kili sometimes changes color according to my moods. When I'm embarrassed he turns bright red and looks soooo funny.
You'd better hope I don't have a reason to turn red during the school play next week.
Yes, I hope I won't give you a reason to.

We're all kind of off-topic actually. Anyway, the play is Treasure Island and it's really weird. The script was written really choppily, so people know things and we have absolutely no clue how they know them, and a group of island natives was added in for no reason other to give more people parts. I'm the chief of these people (I didn't want to have to memorize a ton of lines), and I have about 5 lines and speak in pig latin. Lame, I know. And I have to wear a grass skirt.
