Moving gives me anxiety so I usually start to pack things as early as possible, even months in advance; with daily essentials being packed on the day of. It makes the task of moving seem a lot less daunting if I can spread the packing out over a longer period of time. Once I'm at the new place I will unpack everything as quickly as possible.

I wouldn't mind football but it really bothers me when people yell loudly at the TV and usually people don't stop when I ask them to.

Y'all ever disassociate so hard you start to question if happiness is a state the human brain is capable of feeling

If we don't interfere with a cobra, it simply goes its own way. Even though it may be extremely poisonous, we are not affected by it; we don't go near it or take hold of it, and it doesn't bite us. The cobra does what is natural for a cobra to do. That's the way it is. If you are clever you'll leave it alone. And so you let be that which is good. You also let be that which is not good - let it be according to its own nature. Let be your liking and your disliking, the same way as you don't interfere with the cobra.  .

As an also-schizo dissociation to cope... reading "there's no real upper limit to how bad the disconnection gets once it's your coping mechanism" was very hmmm yes I can't feel the need to urinate anymore because for whatever reason I put it off enough times I just like, stay "not peeing" and when the dissociation of "everything just feels bad and wrong for no reason" really ramps up I just give it a red hot go and 70% of the time that was the problem It's an effective survival mechanism but when you stand in fire and you're dissociating from fire and then you're a dead rear end bitch well, That monk who meditated through self-immolation was totally different tho that dude died and did not return to samsara. He's cool

I honestly find entering a meditative state easier than a dissociative once but I like, forget? Slips my mind somehow? Like just feel awful and I'm still like "oh yeah! If I just acknowledge the awful it'll all be alright. And I'm very good at that I've been practising 8 years now!" I think the untreated adhd is where important stuff like breathing and feeling goes to the wayside, for me

Oh God I often restrain myself from doing this but literally all of you get into some real basic mindfulness meditation and all this poo poo rolls so much better Annoying buzzing fluorescent light? Stare at it! Hear it! Let it overflow you till nothing else exists! Now it's an annoying light and you can at least like go to where it isn't or whatever it's stopped being such a loving drama

nice obelisk idiot posted:I kinda feel weird about intruding on this thread as I am not autistic per any professional that I've spoken to. But I had developmentally significant OCD and very early gender dysphoria and so it's like, a huge resonance there in some aspects. i kinda feel more like a haunted mynah bird than a person sometimes, with the hyperconnected brain and tendency towards alexithymia and resulting weird somatic stuff. it's nice to see that i'm not alone in that. but not nice to see it of course you are welcome in this thread, friend

It makes the task of moving seem a lot less daunting if I can spread the packing out over a longer period of time. Once I'm at the new place I will unpack everything as quickly as possible.  This is how we're doing it now, slowly filtering out junk and then packing the remains. And we have to do this with 2 locations into one truck since we're getting married and leaving town. Since it's cross country and we're making 3 trips, one by plane, one by car, one by car and moving truck, I want to make mission patches and name it like a space program lol, since there be Mission 1, 2 and 3. I also will say some variation of "capturing the point" once we arrive with our poo poo.

nice obelisk idiot posted:If you are interested in trying to get sensation back, there's exercises on youtube to help free up the pudednal nerve, as dissociation has a physical component. Also exercises for vaginismus regardless of anatomy may be helpful, as the body sort of shuts off sensations of needing to pee in a similar way. I've never been taken seriously much less given advice when I bring this up. Thank you

I've got valid grounds for free detox, can afford subsidised rehab for 3 months right after with Dr and both psychs on site, properly treat this dystonia and sort adhd meds while I'm at it And fix my drug situation. That's in there too. Go hand in hand
