Agreed. Those cuts are so jolting in a way; like having someone hold up one picture in front of your face and suddenly switch to another and have a ribbon of choppy (sometimes even seeming more like p…

Has anyone felt themselves gaining agency in dreams before gaining lucidity? — In my journey of journaling my dreams, I have so far failed to feel super Lucid. More often than not I'll just feel like I'm playing a videogame, instead of realizing I'm in a dream. Like some kind of…

I went to a Physical Therapy intake appointment today, and part of the protocol was asking "Do you Feel Safe at Home?"...........and apparently I said "no', but had no Conscious memory of saying that. OMFG. — I f'ing hate trauma bullshit CPTSD so f'ing much. I thought I was doing fine, wore my best workout outfit to my First PT apointment, so I didnt look like the hot mess that I feel like inside. I…

About the story of Job — Long time Neville dweller here. I always struggled with the story of job. When Neville used to say that when job prayed for others, Job got everything back in abundance or something like that. How …

Need suggestion and solution for my current relationship. — I met someone and instantly liked her. She is divorced, though. One of the astrologers strongly advised against marrying her. They also mentioned Raju Dosha. Recently, I have noticed that she sometim…

33M planning to marry a divorced girl. — I met someone and instantly liked her. She is divorced, though. One of the astrologers strongly advised against marrying her. They also mentioned Raju Dosha. Recently, I have noticed that she sometim…

Mixed Feelings — I’m trying to make sense of a relationship dynamic (and research has consistently came up with covert narc tendencies in her) and would really value outside perspective. I’ve been with my partner for …

How to stop being triggered? — Ever since I was little, anyone raising their voice around me would cause me to panic and even hyperventilate and sob. Throughout the years, I have stopped the outward expression of this panic almost …

How can I [21F] fix my relationship with my boyfriend [22M]? — My boyfriend and I have been dating for about a year and a half. We’ve had some issues before last fall with him not wanting to be emotional or have conversations with me when needed, but things got …

I'm a FA that leans anxious, and someone going quiet only interprets abandonment if there is a sudden drop off of otherwise normal consistent communication. It's that inconsistent dynamic that creates…

The faux-closeness besides trauma dumping has been cuddly roleplay, because my autistic brain interprets that as ”real” because of the distance (and I’m starved for cuddling, in an innocent way, with …

Yeah there are a lot of assumptions made, one time he was very distant with me for weeks and I asked what was up and he said he feels all he does is disappoint me and he feels guilt over that. I geni…

I'm slowly working on healing. I found out about attachment theory and that I was avoidant through therapy. After reading more about it and learning how it has shown up in my life, I've been able to p…

I tried this: Several different things are happening in that thread, and most commenters are collapsing them into one narrative (“AI causes psychosis / AI flatters users”). The situation described i…

If you don't love the man who is amazing, gives you all the patience required and gives you stable love and quiet support while you are going through shitty times then what the hell do you want? …

What you’re describing is actually a really common nervous system response after a breakup when someone has anxious attachment patterns. When you’ve been used to getting comfort, reassurance and emot…

i relate to this a lot. i have an avoidant attachment style too and something i’ve noticed in myself is that repair in a conversation and repair in my nervous system don’t happen on the same timeline.…

When you get out of your body, do you feel like you're physically moving it? Because that's what happens to me, and I wake up because my mind interprets it as me trying to physically move my body and …

Hmm, from what i've read it's generally considered harmless apart from the terrible sleep quality lol. yeah, for the most part i've notice it being the same phenomenon with similar effects. i haven't …

Sorry this is really long. The first part of your story I read sounds just like my childhood. I do not have experience with as much physical abuse that you have experienced, but my mom and dad were ad…

You are not in this physical reality and could very well be seeing other forms of consciousness or energy copies of people and they can see you too which is why dude was probably freaked out by some r…

Yes, the slight misalignments and organic ‘imperfections’ in the Gateway Tapes are exactly what produce the binaural effect, but it’s also important to consider the technology of the 60s. Recording eq…

This is awesome! My mind interprets this as looking down a valley into a farm

Don’t listen to this what ever this is 👆 Make sure you’re needs are met first, in general not meaning by them. Make sure your ok mentally emotionally and spiritually whatever that last one is to you…

To add to this is also depends on the natal charts of each person. If either person has little squares so they're not use to working with this energy - they might struggle more than someone who has m…

That's anxiety starting. And then you start wondering why you're having those thoughts. You start questioning if something is wrong with you. You feel bad about yourself because of it. And the cycle b…

What you’re describing sounds less like “nothing works” and more like your system being chronically stuck in a survival state. When your nervous system is that activated for that long, it doesn’t resp…

Another element to the metaphor that came to me once I’d settled back into consensus reality and felt this part of it reforming in my own experience: the concept of separation, of “external” reference…

It sounds less like a “Stoic vs not Stoic” issue, and more like she’s struggling with expectations and emotional reactions, which to be fair, most of us do at some point. From a Stoic perspective, th…

Yeah, pretty much. I have something called Pathological Demand Avoidance and I can either flip out or straight up start crying when asked to do something and my brain interprets it as a demand, becaus…

The part about the cat noticing something too is really interesting. Animals do seem incredibly sensitive to shifts in a space or in people’s state, so I wouldn’t dismiss that observation at all. Wher…

The mess here isn’t entirely on her… So it’s not just about whether she can change…but can you? Why break up if all you do is stay close to her, monitoring her „progress“ or lack thereof, only to ge…

That 'spinning' and the 'big/small' feeling (Alice in Wonderland Syndrome) are actually very common when you start hitting deep sensory withdrawal. The brain loses its anchor in the physical world. Si…

Heheh i got weirded out by the same realization too recently, this lump of meat and fat in our head interprets outside signals and controls our every day lives. No wonder shit happens 😂 But as derog…

It doesn’t respond to your thought it responds to your fear/feeling. You see it **because** you are afraid. I’ve seen hundreds of shadow beings and they would often chase me and try to latch on to me.…

I know??? 😭 I've read the Bible cover to cover multiple times. Christian's are notorious drinkers, no one interprets that as "you must be sober all the time" except for the same Christians who sin ev…

It may be helpful to listen to traditional astrologers do chart delineating or talk about transits. Listen to a few episodes of the astrology podcast where they're doing the month ahead forecast. You …

this is honestly a tricky one because both things can be true at the same time. they're a good person being themselves, and their communication style genuinely triggers your anxiety. neither of you is…

Deactivation isn't a character flaw, it's a high-speed nervous system shutdown triggered when your brain interprets extreme vulnerability as a survival threat. By attempting a "big romantic gesture" w…

There's so much I'd like to say about this. Not even sure where to start. Such a beautiful, honest, vulnerable heart-felt post. This is going to be long. I'm going to have to break it into pieces.…

But back to the brain. Its interpretations. From the moment you're born, it starts to interpret. Like Thich Nhat Hanh says, the moment you're born, you're ejected from the baby palace, where it's w…

Using language that is all or nothing, uses words like, "always" and "never" in regards to what a partner does escalates the conflict. It's not about being heard, it's about being right. He literally …

Dear Natural_Nerve_9517, First, I commend you for your strength and awareness in realizing what is best for your mental health and setting boundaries. It isn't easy to break away from someone you car…

the reason no one else measures up isn't because she’s special, it's because she’s the only one who knows how to trigger that specific, addictive chemical rush you learned as a teenager. healthy love …

That definitely sounds like a classic hypnagogic experience, especially considering you are already hitting Focus 10 and 12 regularly. Since those states are specifically designed to keep the mind awa…

Wait, I've experienced something similar with my ex! It's like the universe hears 'ex back' but interprets it as 'any interaction with ex,' not necessarily a positive reunion. I found focusing on the …

I’m assuming your soon to be ex interprets normal levels of being friendly as flirting.

Sure, here's what it said when asked to rewrite it "An 18-year-old guy is spiraling over his girlfriend having a long-time male friend and is trying really hard to convince everyone (and himself) tha…

I hadn't even heard of OCPD. Yeah that fits my stepdad perfectly. Do they usually have "targets"? He has always been way way harder on me than with anyone else, because he interprets my ADHD (diagnose…
