ears underwater

music/audio at slower speed (0.6-0.9)

Let's hear em. I might want to do a series for various conditions or states so stay tuned and lets crowd-source this shit, enough of the "read my new/old 400pg tome for an introduction". 🤮 Distill

Dang I thought you were going to say something about people who are in wheelchairs.

Walking, in general, is a healthy activity that the majority of people would benefit from. I'm sorry your anxiety stops you from this activity, but to call someone idiotic, and their comments offensive, because they suggested someone with anxiety take a walk; is pretty silly.
