I think I should eliminate those that can be easily found online, because the main point was I had to do a deep dive to uncover some of these.

Dph could be Diphenhydramine aka Benadryl. Although I'm not super sure myself.

Sorry, is this comment a joke?
No joke. SaSu has been used as an acronym for this site, it was the first one that I saw and I saw it often. It is an option along with ss that is written in the acronym thread from February 2023. You might want to look it up, it is pretty complete. I'm an old guy and even though I didn't live through ww2 my dad and many of his friends that I knew did. And there were several relatives and family friends didn't come home. The acronym ss will always be attached to that war and atrocities the ss did. How was my comment remotely funny?

Pretty sure SI means Suicidal Ideation, not Survival Instinct, though for the most part in the context of this forum, they mean the same thing
