When a limit breaks

Every science has limits. We read sciences. For each one we wrote down what its own sources say happens when a limit is crossed and the similarities to humanity’s mental health crises.

The same things kept happening.

The names are ours, in plain words. Each science uses its own words. Open any line to see them, with the source.

What happens

Most common first. The number is how many sciences have a limit that breaks this way.

Does a science keep itself steady?

Some things correct themselves. A thermostat does it in four steps.

It sensesThe room is cold.
It decidesColder than the setting.
It actsThe heat turns on.
It checks againWarm now. The heat turns off.

Scientists call this a regulation loop. We looked for one in every science.
