It may be slightly relatable, but no. I do not have ASD and I do not struggle with change or disorder.

I’m in a weird spot here at 30 years old, but let’s see…

My advice to younger people would be to take care of their mental health, and to do it via scientific practices.
For example, cognitive behavioral therapy has enough evidence of it working; therapy through spirits, don’t. Medication can be necessary and its effectiveness is proven; that’s not the case for extreme diets.

Also, philosophical counseling is a thing and it is good, but just like psychotherapy, it may not be enough. Sometimes we are dealing with mental disorders that require pharmacological treatment. Conversely, psychiatry and medication are there for people who need it, but sometimes we don’t need it and we need better habits, better environment, counseling, etc. It is usually a combination of many things the way we can start feeling better.

I’ll still read the advice from others because, well, I’m sure I can learn a lot from them.

Edit: I thought it was the other way around. Oh, well, it still applies. I wish my parents and other people their age would give mental health treatments a try.

It is inglés.

Without the ‘é’, it says that it doesn’t speak “groins”.

We can correct it in our minds, but as a Mexican scholar explained, these marks in Spanish should not be erased in other languages as they are quite important. It is the difference between “¡Feliz año nuevo!” (Happy New Year!) and “¡Feliz ano nuevo!” (Happy new anus!).

I’d try to be understanding with the parents, but I admit family waiting too long is a problem. I remember watching this video and getting frustrated at every missed opportunity…

This keeps happening and it is infuriating. It’s also scary for people with SMI/SEMI (severe and enduring mental illnesses) such as schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, as if the fear of the illness itself wasn’t enough.

Spanish (native), English (fluent).

Edit: Me emociona leer que tantas personas están aprendiendo español 🫶…

Both, depending on the month. I have bipolar disorder.

Also, cognitive disengagement syndrome or CDS. (It is not recognized yet by the DSM, though).

I don’t know. When I was younger, caffeine made me sleepy. Nowadays, it makes me focus.

It’s great to finish activities, but I cannot take it frequently as it affects my mood if I do so (bipolar disorder). It’s only my emergency focus 🪄.

No, attention issues can be caused by depression, anxiety, stress, bad sleep hygiene or problems like sleep apnea, and many other things.

*Social anxiety intensifies*

I am disliking this sentiment. I am on the Fediverse because Sync’s developer and many others were betrayed by Reddit and I wanted to show solidarity and to ‘punish’ Reddit by leaving. The Fediverse’s values are admirable, but I do not share them all. I believe in supporting good projects, even some that are private if they don’t pose a risk of destroying something bigger, and Sync is a good project that can be easily abandoned without consequences if something goes wrong.

You are right about that. I would add that non-human lives are also valuable. I especially believe animal suffering is terrible, ours and others. We are enough to help humankind and also repair injustices to and help other beings.

What I wanted to comment is that I felt this image intensely because it is kind of symbolic. It represents the beauty we are capable of, the way we can be brought together by beliefs and dreams, all destroyed by greediness, selfishness, and unnecessary violence. It is tragic. It is not the value of the building itself, which is debatable, but this I explained.

Sorry if my English is weird.

Learning philosophy (and sciences, arts, etc.) is great. I think their real problem is to be dogmatic or arrogant, which is ironic.
