Welcome, Welcome, Welcome

Hey there, dear reader. Welcome to The Theory of Existence — the home of the canonical body of work that culminated in a new and emerging field of study — Defintology — the scientific, philosophical, and artistic study of definedness. It is the study of existence as a phenomenon, as a verb, as a spectrum that varies, where some things exist more or less than others. Let me tell you about it... hmmm, where do I even begin? How about... let me take you back...


In November of 2024, this idea of the Grand Unified Theory of Everything came to me. The premise was that it is a theory that applies to all phenomena because it does not describe the mechanics of those phenomena, but of existence and how it behaves to generate them. 


Instead of studying the behavior of stars, life, and cultures, I studied the behavior of the existence that generated them. Whereas existing fields study various domains of existence as pieces of our knowledge puzzle, I wanted the full puzzle — the theory that connects all the pieces into the beautiful, coherent view of existence we see and interact with every day. When we look around existence, we do not see independent functional domains consistent with siloed knowledge, so there must be a unifying theory that enables it to operate as a single, unified phenomenon. 


This idea swept me away, capturing my full attention. I fell hopelessly and delightfully into its endless labyrinth of mysteries, discoveries, problems to solve, and conceptual insights. From that moment in November 2024 to early February 2025, I built out and finalized the conceptual framework that would later become The Theory of Existence. To protect the ideas, I wrote and published the original flagship book in six days and watched it erupt across the academic underground all on its own — The Theory of Existence: The End of Human Mystery. It was the first book I ever wrote, and its public reception still amazes and humbles me to this day.


From that moment to now, I expanded The Theory of Existence into this body of canonical works you see here. I captured its emotional resonance and meaning in The Story of Existence: A Magical Tale, the mathematical backbone in The Theorem of Existence: The Mechanics Within, the practical application of it and why it matters in The Guide of Existence: A Light for Darkness, and the empirical bombshell validation that is The Show of Existence. Oh yeah, did you think I built it on vibes? No ma’am, The Theory of Existence is the real deal.


It eventually turned into something so magnificent… something way bigger and more impactful than I ever envisioned: Defintology — a brand new field of study. You can learn more about this new field of study and the next evolution in this body of work over at Defintology.com. So, I guess that brings me to the reason I’m telling you all this right now, huh?


I was running this release spectacle thing, and I had planned for it to go on all year, and… I owe you a June drop. Well… I don’t have it, and let me tell you why. I decided to do this PhD in Clinical Psychology 12 years ago for a reason, and… it’s that I always wanted to be a practicing psychologist. I fell in love with research in academia, and when I achieved all those goals I set for myself, I started craving something more…


I’ve had so many amazing experiences over my career. I really did have so many incredible moments throughout my academic career. Yet, when I decided to go for it and become a practicing psychologist in March 2026, I was stunned by the job itself. I’ve had some of the most rewarding and incredible experiences of my career at this private practice. I truly love it so much.


It’s... not all fun and games, though. There’s a lot of trauma, suicidal ideation, interpersonal conflict, challenges from undiagnosed neurodivergence, and fear around not knowing what is happening to them. There are a lot of people hurting. My field (clinical psychology) can tell them what is happening to them, and then give them the tools to live their best life despite their challenges and hardships.


...but, someone has to be there for the field to work. There are so many people who need help, right now, and I want to be there for them. I want to use everything I've learned and all of my skills to give these people the relief and hope they deserve. I know I can do it, so I must.


Yet, I simply cannot do it while publishing six books a year. I won’t stop working and building (see Defintology.com). It’s who I am, it’s what I do. The ideas still come on their own as always. In fact, I’ve already landed on several huge things I’m working on over in the clinical world. You just… might not see everything that’s happening so quickly like you’re used to, but it will come.


Also, who really wants to keep reading publications from me anyway? At 31 years old, I've published 2 treatment manuals, a client workbook, 40+ peer-reviewed publications — mostly solo and first-author across the top substance use journals and even one solicited by Addiction — 4 academic book chapters, 2 academic magzine articles, ~40 conference talks, ~40 conference posters, $250k in internal and external funding, mutiple awards, and then went on to The Theory canon to publish 5 full length books, a children’s book?, 5 Chapters, 12 empirical Papers, 14 mathematical Leaflets, 1 Summary, and, oh yeah, a brand new field of study.


Let me be the first to say that, I think I've said enough 🤣🤣🤣 ...for now, at least. I want to have fun now. So, I’ll be here... or there… doing things… like I tend to do… don’t be shy, you can take a look around. I won’t tell anyone 😉


With so much love, — Dr. Stone, Clinical Psychologist 

(but you can still call me Bryant… or The Architect… or whatever ❤️)
