Made me cry 😂💜

Cool, let me know how it goes, it turned out to be a good experiment for me, so I'm crossing my fingers for you!

I don't hate them, I just can't play them. I get sucked into the world so completely I lose track of the local rules of physics, like I'll actually feel smacking into a wall or feel the gravity shift when I move onscreen. Doesn't happen when I watch shows bc that's passive. I don't have any strong feelings about other ppl playing them tho. Ppl can use any hobby to completely ignore irl if they're so inclined, it's not just video games

All I can say from personal experience:

I had to find a therapist who specialized in cult survivors. The other ones I just traumatized. Keep searching if you haven't found the right fit for you.

Daily meditation helped me as much as the right meds did, and in a totally different way. The meds make it easier to meditate, but meditation let me become the kind of person who doesn't automatically react negatively to stimuli.

It takes 21-66 days to re-route neural pathways. So now that you've gotten a basic overview from reading the book, maybe picking one thing out of it to work and focus on for 2 months straight will help more than trying to juggle all of the tips simultaneously.

Emotional disregulation is a hard one. Have you seen examples irl of ppl reacting to things in a more regulated way that you can admire and emulate? If so, it might be cool to pretend for a minute that you are that person in that situation, reacting the way they did, and try it on for size, feel how different it is, and mentally practice in made up situations reacting with calmness.

Good luck 💜

TIL I'm a profoundly odd person

J/k, I've always known that 😂

I posted this on r/crowbro and got over 5K upvotes. I've never gotten over like 100 before 😂 So thank you to OP for posting and to you for posting the artist's link that I included. They really liked the comic over there!

That's a good one 😂

Haaha, I have no idea, I just know my brain did the same thing as it did when I was 12 and learned about the double slit experiment. "This is something important" it says, so I listen.

I love how seriously everyone's taking this! Like "I want to help set up the parameters of the experiment!"

That would be amazing

Removing the conservatives who dissent might backfire on them bc they might end up thinking they're not considered "conservative" anymore and find other ppl to hang out with. And the reddit shillbot page will just be talking to itself. One can hope
