Goodbye and good riddance — things I wish I could tell my ex (but obvi won't): I’ve realized something since everything ended, we were never going to work. You blindsided me. You were already halfway out the door for months, a…

Just because someone sounds confident doesn't mean they're right. In fact, the dumbest, most wrong people are extremely confident. Why would you trust his stupid opinion over your own? It's good yo…
Visualizing is inside your head, seeing is with your eyes. If you can remember what an apple looks like with your eyes closed, you can visualize
That's a pretty common experience among a particular demographic of young people. Usually very intelligent (or at least, very academically successful as a younger child), and either a little bit neuro…
Another thing that surprised me was when I realized how much of this is battled internally. You can be doing everything right as a dad outside, but inside your head you still feel like youre falling s…
You are in no position to assess yourself. No one ever is. You are describing nothing more than classic trauma from a comment which challenged your self-image. It's too easy to look for magical cause…

Looks like my mad scramblings when I'm on lsd lol. Artwork is pretty good. Can you share more about the "duplicate yourself" and meditating inside your head part?

For sure, the way to escape over-thinking is dropping into feeling. You can also try to feel the weight of your brain in your skull. Or similarly, the base of your heart, your eyes, your solar plexu…
I think that experience of finding "the one" and realizing it isn't, in fact, "the one" is disappointing but overall helpful. It shows how the mind is tricky, and that our emotional responses aren't a…
