I have a definite feeling of deja vu, here.
(1)The normal process is that the OP posts something about being targetted with "RF" or "microwaves".
(2)This is followed by fairly rational explanation that what was "experienced" is not practically possible.
(3) The OP rejects the information & quotes some dodgy authority to "prove" their point.
(4) The other participants are unsure how to proceed,being confused whether the OP is uninformed as to what is physically possible, demented, or a plain old garden variety troll.
(5) Being, in the main, nice people, they take the most charitable explanation as being correct.
(6) So down the rabbit hole---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------page after page-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------until, around step
(100) Thread locked, OP banned!
OP bides their time, then comes back with a new name, starts the whole crap over again!
As a nasty old sod, I suggest we go straight to step (100) following step (1)! 
I understand where you are coming from and that (just go to step 100) is definitely one way "forward". Something like how the board would like to treat political topics (with varying degrees of success).
Part of me regrets bothering to respond to the OP or the thread in general and another part does not.
The optimism in me tries to believe that there may be a window of opportunity to influence the OP to come to the conclusion that alternative explanations are possible. In my view, attribution is strong in all brains whether chemical unbalance exists or not.
As usual, inappropriate use of Occam's razor is invoked
https://www.theatlantic.com/science/archive/2016/08/occams-razor/495332/ Accepting simple explanations WITHOUT evidence may be preferred over accepting complex explanations WITHOUT evidence, but in both situations, explanations without evidence are being accepted and we can do better than that. So, that reasoning also expresses the optimism in me that I use to rationalize contributing to the thread.
The pessimism in me says it is a fool's errand and a waste of time.
Most people on this board know that it is POSSIBLE that what the OP is experiencing is due to "targeted energy waves". Most also know that, based on their knowledge of the area, that it is unlikely because of practical limits as they are conventionally understood.
Some on the board, having knowledge and experience (likely indirectly) with some level of paranoid schizophrenia or paranoid delusions, see that direction as the explanation. None on the board, however, are qualified to diagnose someone based on submission of two posts. To be clear, that area is where I would put my money and that is falling into the exact trap that I am talking about.
So, where exactly is the adherence to a standard of proof? The embassy situation, which has come up, is so politically charged that when I brought up a contracted expert opinion concerning what could be possible explanations, it was met (IMO) with absolutely ludicrous alternative explanation, each without evidence offered, but with the claim that it was MORE likely.
https://www.eevblog.com/forum/chat/microwave-weapons/msg3356346/#msg3356346This general issue was around long before the embassy issue. See, for example, the commission
from 20 years ago in 2011 - take a look at the public commentary here
https://www.information-book.com/electromagnetic-harassment-health-attacks/victims-testify-at-presidential-bioethics-commission/ You think you are going to convince those folks that they are all delusional? Moreover, since you do not know that they are delusional (no matter how compelling it is to believe as much), why should you?
I feel very strongly that it is difficult or impossible to change some people's mind on this subject - as is the case with many conspiracy theories and political issues. But, I also think that there are people who can be influenced by an appeal to evidenced-based thinking, critical thinking and a standard of proof - all three of which seem to be in decline (or is that just my age showing?).
To the OP, I will stick with what I said because I do care and I feel that the advice that I (and others) gave is as good as I can do in this context.
While we know that "targeted energy waves" are possible, I don't know of anyone claiming that they are not detectable. So too, certain symptoms. For example, the "vibrating floor" - well, that is not hard to measure and cheaply. I get frustrated when going that route legitimately is not pursued but going this route
https://quwave.com/defender.html?source=def-ti2&msclkid=d6a640e607e610ce6d5220d9b636e1e3 is pursued. So often, the attribution has been made and is resistant to change - but not always (again, window of opportunity).
I do not want to go the route of supporting or driving people to the latter route because I personally believe that those "products" are BS and I don't care if you find someone (shill or not) that claims some relief from using them. I do believe that these "energy waves" can be measured and I understand what a random controlled clinical trial is about and I understand that people get better and get worse for reasons that are not understood.
I hope that this does not sound too much like self-centered righteousness, I really do think about these matters a lot and feel some responsibility to do so.
