Image poisoning’s general principle is to change pixels in a way were our eye can’t notice, but that screw up the labeling by LLMs.

You can probably try to apply the same principle, poison the PDF in a way that only humans can read it.

Thing is, I assume you distribute your content on PDFs to make the content accessible to humans. That usually means having the text embedded for easy copy-paste and similar methods. Poisoning these might end up being counterproductive for your objective.

All this to say that No, I have no idea of a poisoning algorithm for PDFs

Recognising that there are items to address is one of the hardest steps of self-improvement. I wish you the best of luck on your journey!

Would going thru the effort and trying to get medication solve my stress related issues?

Solved? Nah, there’s little to nothing to be “solved” with medication.

The sweet spot with medication can, however, bring one to a point where emotions are not as extreme.

Anecdotally, I noticed that I had anger outbursts after I resumed medication. I would notice the contrast of the extreme emotion on the days I didn’t take meds, or when the meds had worn off.

So, in my experience, meds could help mellowing the reactions. Note that when I say meds, I’ve only had dexies.
