Will going through undergraduate textbooks allow me to design my devices?

It looks to me (and please correct me if I am wrong), that you have, what is similar to, the common pet chip RFID https://science.howstuffworks.com/innovation/everyday-innovations/pet-microchip1.htm
There are legitimate medical reasons to use these. I have not read the thread real carefuly, but I am not sure that is the issue. Nevertheless, you make a point so thank you for that.

You are absolutely correct :)
And I deliberately chose to get that thing. Its pretty useful.
And no, surely that is not the issue. I just wanted to show to novicefedora that there is nothing bad in having an implant, as I did that to myself.
And yes, I know exactly what you and every other person that answered here is thinking. And I agree. ;)

It's sad, when things like that, happen to people you know. Especially, if you knew them, before such episodes, started. I would guess, that the modern era. With many things open, 24 hours a day. Easy/quick internet searches, even if the search terms are crazy. Massive anonymous communications medium, such as this forum.
It could make things like that worse (but there are also ways, it could make it better).
It is not immediately obvious, which wins out. I.e. If modern times (now), is better or worse than say, 20 or 30 years ago. As regards, mental health and getting mental health issues sorted out.
My understanding, is it has never really been any good (for the patients), at any time, really, so far.
Maybe, in the future, diagnosis and treatments, will get better. One has to just hope, I guess. It seems to be a relatively neglected part of society, medicine and can cause sometimes negative feelings in others, if they know about other peoples, mental health conditions.
There is still varying amounts of stigma/negativity, both at the individual level and society level, about mental health and/or seeing/dealing with Psychiatrists, and other mental health professionals, such as Psychologists and Mental Health Nurses.
Both me, my imaginary friend, and all my other alternate personalities, all agree that I have no such problems. :-DD

Some of the women who are trafficked into sex slavery (according to the police in at least one US state, North Carolina) are tattooed with barcodes. Can RFID implants be far behind?
Scary if its true. It might be. Powerful people are involved in sex trafficking. But I doubt if the technology exists to control people via brain implants, yet. If it did we would likely know about it.

--- Quote ---An example of delusional thinking, then, might be a patient thinking that the CIA has secretly implanted a computer chip in his or her brain. Although the delusional patient can have a head x-ray or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) that would prove that there is no chip, he would continue to insist and react to the notion that a chip is implanted, and that the head imaging must have been wrong, or even that the chip might have been invisible to MRI detection.

and occasionally when not treated they end up murdering random people they think are part of the conspiracy ...
