    I am in the same boat. I have to concentrate really hard, and focus on bits and pieces of anything I try to visualize in my head; never the whole image. e.g. an apple is usually red, green, yellow. It is sort of roundish, where the bottom may be more flat than the top. It has a brown stem at the top. etc.

    I have recently discovered that when I use CBD gummies, my continuous internal monologue shuts off. I still have it, but it’s shorter and less specific, and sometimes I feel like I don’t have it (or remember it 🤷‍♂️). It’s nice because it makes me less tense and stressed. I live moment by moment and only in the present tense.

    I don’t know if it’s related, but I also have cPTSD, and that does dramatically affect how you think.











  • We do our best to include the community in major decisions such as this. But keep in mind that some decisions will be made via the mod team, and if/when necessary the .world admin team.

    While we hope to make the right decisions* that the majority of the community will agree with, we accept that not everyone will be happy with what we do or say.

    Re our subcontracted despotism: anyone who does not like how this community is run is free to (respectfully) voice their concerns (such as you did just now), and if that does not satisfy their concerns, they are welcome to create their own subcontracted-despotic community and run it how they see fit (obviously within the confines of whichever ToS applies to the instance is they create it on).

  • Count your blessings. That’s seriously awesome.

    ~For funsies go buy those housebreaking pee pads for pets, and leave one right by the door. When you leave make sure your girlfriend is standing nearby so when she asks why that’s there, you can tell her it’s so when she *waves hands* “does things”, the pad will catch it for her.~
