  1. You create meaning, so taking full ownership of being a creator is key. How much of yourself are you willing to embrace?
  2. Not until he realizes he’s been chasing himself the whole time.
  3. YOU hit it right on the nail. Just stop avoiding, YOU!
  4. You can still expand your Sense Of Self. .S.O.S.
  5. Try dancing when you find yourself feeling overwhelmed or stuck in your head
  6. This is not Nazi Germany. You can choose to add users to your ignore list, but I believe the mature thing to do is to not do that unless someone really gets on your nerves. When you are part of a group, you are bound to meet people you are not comfortable with. But you can’t keep running away forever.
  7. It’s a necessary part of the journey, at least from my experience. Your results may vary.
  8. Maybe AI will in the future.
  9. Have you heard of this phone? https://www.thelightphone.com/
  10. You can now upload images using Google Bard. Let’s just say I tried a… provocative image. Google Bard definitely has a way with words. Humanity is fucked.
  11. I’m assuming you mean besides internet, like TV. Were you into Atari or TV shows? I’m only 27 so I have very little idea of what life was like before the internet.
  12. This book might be useful to you. “The Art of Lucid Dreaming: Over 60 Powerful Practices to Help You Wake Up in Your Dreams” by Clare R. Johnson, PhD
  13. Relate to this a lot. What I’ve found works when it comes to fear is the ability to recontextualize / reimagine the situation. This takes a lot of practice expanding your mind and raising your consciousness. For example, earlier I woke up abruptly from my sleep and then felt this heavy anxiety creep up. I decided to do a breathing meditation for 5 mins using my Apple Watch, and after the session it said that my average heart rate BPM was 119. I panicked and assumed I was dying, but immediately I was able to reimagine myself enjoying being on a roller coaster. I was able to make the connection between having a fast heart rate with excitement (i.e. being on a roller coaster). This is not merely about changing one belief to another, because you can always take it ever deeper. You can become deeply conscious of the fact that you’re imagining a fast heart rate, panic, excitement, and roller coasters! You can become very adept at making stronger connections with yourself.
  14. You won’t believe it, but fear, like everything else, is imaginary. If you can Love Infinite Fear, then you have gone Alien Fucking Insane.
  15. @Osaid Thank you for asking… your question led me to contemplate what I’ve been going through these past couple weeks, and then I discover these articles on Wikipedia. I was diagnosed with autism 10 years, so I’m quite surprised that I’ve never heard of these terms before! (these articles may also be useful to you @Sugarcoat @NoSelfSelf) : Autistic shutdown Autistic meltdown Autistic burnout I’ve been dealing with these at greater intensity, ever since the forum has been going bananas from the whole Alien Insanity fiasco. I don’t regret it one bit, because my relationship with my father and significant other have been a lot more open and honest. But again, this didn’t come easy at all. They both suffered with me through my ordeal, and supported me to the very end. In short, it’s like taking a strong psychedelic; autism is a powerful psychedelic.
