late night anxiety posting
Ah, if only there was reliable feedback you could use to gauge how a social thing is going... Loprazolam I miss you...I know that's way too literal and maybe gamified a way to look at talking to people, like it's not a system with rules, not really, even though neurotypicals say it is. But while I've been pretty content just going at it and yapping with people, there are definitely times where a thing happens and I desperately wish I could tell if it's the result of me being a huge fuckup or not.
Sometimes you just get left with nothing to go on, which is awkward and also leaves me wide awake at 7am combing over the same couple of conversations repeatedly trying to figure out if I did something stupid, which is extremely nerve wrecking seriously stop please.
Has anyone figured out how to git gud at not having anxious breakdowns like this, without needing to be medicated or whatever?
Disidentifying from my thoughts has helped. It leaves me wanting something to identify with and finding nothing, but I’ll be fine. There is a mechanism that keeps catching RSD in the act and disengaging.
How do I do this pls =)
Insight practices
https://www.mctb.org/ https://youtu.be/GYAremovedgbbM (I pirated this guy’s book on Anna’s archive) I also listened to a lot of Revolutionary Left Radio on Buddhism. I have read way to much about Buddhism but honestly it’s not necessary. I took “thoughts aren’t you” seriously first when Breht explained his OCD. I turned it into an OCD thing crushing every thought that implied it was me due to black and white thinking. Now I can see through that mechanism as also not me and my relationship to thoughts is better.Essentially pay attention in daily life to the three characteristics of all things: impermanence, non-self, and suffering. Pay attention to bare sensations stripped of ideas imposed upon them (though those can also be analyzed with the senses). Pay attention to that which appears to be “you” conscious that it can’t be you because it is temporary and you cannot see yourself temporarily.
Also gotta recommend daily vipassana and nothing/open awareness meditation.
There are some risks which are mentioned in the sources but if you’re like me you have more to gain than lose. There is a “safer” slower route going concentration first, but with ADHD insight first is probably better (sense/attention sensitivity is a bonus tbh). If you awaken the after glow can help you actually learn the concentration stuff, which is cool.
