SCP-8480 - ANXIETY-Induced Self-Cannibalism

[@heitorvserpa]

[@Joseph-mw2rl]

I love how you portrayed traumatic memories. Everyone looked like monsters and everything was in your face. Just an overload of horror

[@missylemon3443]

Not so fun fact but when I was in elementary school I used to not only chew on my nails but my fingers and hands as well. It was terrible. Only my classmates and parents seemed to ever notice. Teachers and nurses couldn't care less but GOD FORBID I chewed on a pencil instead. Still have tons of scars on my hands but I started going to therapy much later in life and it really did save me. This kinda hit home in a strange way

[@optimisticazreal882]

My sister chews her nails/ fingertips and the insides of her cheeks. I hope you're doing well. Be safe my friend 💕

[@ilesdogetr]

dr bob does not care if you are famous he does not care if you aren't known he doesn't care if you're first he doesn't care if you're last he only cares if you enjoyed the video :)

[@FangTheManokit]

Even this very video could have anomalous effects

[@BryanSanchez-yw4vf]

I thought I was the only one 😨

[@clarinetbubbleface8655]

Fact: Wendigo Syndrome is one’s fear of becoming a cannibal.

[@CobaltTungsten]

That's awesome, but also sad. Truthfully, if I HAD to, I don't harbor any put-off feelings when it comes to eating people. Now, I'd never kill someone to eat them, but if I was starving on an island and my best friend just dropped dead? Humans are meat, meat is calories, calories is time, and time is hope of survival. Plus, plenty of cultures around the world eat people after they've died as a sign of respect, as a way to "Make them apart of you forever", quite literally. I don't know, perhaps I'm just abnormal, but when it comes down to it, I've never seen humans as more than Smart animals. We're still part of Nature, we're not some automatons who rose from nothing. Caveat: I also do believe in honoring someone's wishes. If they said "Please don't eat me, bury me" then bury them. Or "Don't bury me, burn me" then burn them. It's a very simple thing. Although, I do recognize this makes me sound a little too close to Hannibal Lecter, but I stand by what I say. TLDR: Humans are friends, and *can* be food under the right circumstances.

[@agentatles624]

Okay, but like have you even TRIED human meat before? It's low-key fire..

[@CobaltTungsten]

@@agentatles624 Have I? No. Interested? Yes. From what I know of the human anatomy, I know the one place on a human that tastes uniquely "Us", is the muscle in the hand for your thumb. It apparently doesn't taste like any other animal, therefor it is how "We" taste XD

[@brettnelson7048]

The SCP-8480 has much in common with the Wendigo from Native American stories. It's all about this crazy hunger, a content need to eat itself. It also shows that when someone goes through serious stress or trauma, it can really bring out this wild, destructive side.

[@ToadTheAwtysm]

This is terrifying and so well animated. Awesome

[@Megamanthemachine]

@@kingofravens215 maybe for them to not compromise using all of scp 500 they can make copies of it and then give it to the subject using scp 038 given that it’s at least effective up to 40 percent these pills can hopefully help to eliminate a big part of symptoms stages 1 2 and 3 even cure them but stage 4 might be hard that’s why you need scp 999 it helps these kinds of feelings and permanently restrain the scp 8480 victims otherwise we can have the Egyptian scp known as bes who also has been known to be a good reality warper and amazing healer try to treat these symptoms before they go too far.

[@thefanboy3285]

8:20 Hey Doctor. Maybe you won't see this, but I think it'd be a good idea and video content to make a digression from the usual SCPs and instead focus and explain a little bit the SCP's standard classification ? We're already familiar with the 3 Safe, Euclid and Keter, and on rare occasion Apollyon class, but this is the first time I've heard of Disruption class Ecchee.

[@Lxganberry]

minus the anomalous parts, this actually sounds like something that could be a genuine thing. i might have to flip through the dsm-5 to see if there is actually something similar

[@ReiverBlue1971]

I haven't looked it up, mainly because I know it exists but it's not just restricted to the hands but can occur with the feet as well (and can also extend into deliberately damaging healing injuries in other locations around the body, leading to a certain amount of scaring).

I rarely say this on any video covering any kind of SCP anomaly, whether it be Dr. Bob or another channel, but _damn_, this one deserves it - Now THAT, is what I call absolutely, deeply disturbing!

That one doctor looks awfully familiar

[@ashleighstratmann7783]

Keeping my hands busy always keep them away from my mouth. I noticed that before watching this video. I had Obsessive Compulsive Disorder as far back as I can remember and in less than half that time Bipolar disorder brought on by my Asperger’s syndrome(now known as just a form of Autism Spectrum disorder) and both OCD and Bipolar are forms of anxiety disorders.

[@NumberOneVillain]

Considering the current state of the internet, especially with all these people self-diagnosing on tiktok as if mental disorders are cool and quirky, I'm acutely aware of how hard this might be to believe; but I have this exact list of disorders myself. I'm curious; do you also have a highly accurate cue'd memory which frequently leads your thoughts to tangents so far removed that you couldn't possibly hope to explain to someone how you arrived there without sounding deranged? One example I have found very helpful in explaining my thought process is that Malcolm In the Middle episode where he meets that kid even smarter than him, and Malcolm explains to him how his brain works. Anyway, if you actually took the time to read this, thank you. I'm sure it was a bit of a journey. I wish you well

[@ashleighstratmann7783]

@ I was actually diagnosed with ocd and bipolar by a psychiatrist. Even my dad who first heard of Asperger’s online search for specialist until he found a psychologist to test me for Asperger’s to confirm it. Took us 18 years to get a confirm diagnosis because every psychiatrist in the past kept ignoring the fact there was a bigger issue than ocd and another disorder called Attention Deficit Disorder (add) but everyone around me can tell (it helped that my dad has a sibling with ADD)

[@ashleighstratmann7783]

I even took the test to confirm I had Asperger’s issues by the psychologist who diagnosed me. As for Bipolar, well it was hard to ignore the signs in myself after I realize what kind of medication my current psychiatrist been prescribing me is for, and bipolar been a lingering possibility for me not just because of Asperger’s but also my biological mom has it

[@ashleighstratmann7783]

@@NumberOneVillain by the way yes I do have accurate cue’d memory as you described but it should be noted there is another separate disorder and yet found in 1 out of ten autistic that can also enhances memory as well as art music and math skills called Savant Dyndrome. I’m not a Savant myself but considering how the disorder works those with it skills would be greater than others without it.

[@ashleighstratmann7783]

It should also be noted that any disorder in the spectrum of Autism is pretty much just refer to Autism these days so anyone who says they are autistic or knows someone that is that person may not be in the same spectrum as those that were originally diagnosed as Aspergers
