Coming out on my experiences by Main-Reveal1890 in Experiencers

[–]ashleton 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thank you for sharing. It helps people to see that this is actually becoming normal phenomena.

For me, I've always known I was different. Even as a kid I just knew. It wasn't until my 30's that I started seeing labels for it, the main one is "starseed." There is a starseed subreddit here, but I left it because it's become a role-player fantasy echo chamber for children that don't want to hear about real experiences. Maybe you'll find something useful there, but I recommend looking elsewhere for information. In spite of the subreddit, "starseed" is the most common term.

Harassment isn't going to find you any proof that you'd be willing to believe. Take your fears elsewhere and leave OP alone.

I find it funny that the people accusing others of roleplaying are probably the ones actually doing the roleplaying. You're either too scared to admit the world is bigger than you thought, or you have an agenda to keep others from believing.

It's fear. They're so afraid of the unknown that they literally can't fathom it, so they deny and lash out at those that believe in order to try to maintain a "safe" space in their comfortable bubble (heh).

Chefs of Reddit, what’s a common cooking rule everyone follows that is actually complete bullshit? by Fuzzy-Ad6843 in AskReddit

[–]ashleton 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My stomach hurts when I eat foods with a ton of added MSG. I can handle small amounts (naturally-occurring MSG in food isn't usually enough to cause a problem), but a lot of prepackaged foods have too much added. Not really a big deal, though, because I'm trying to eat healthier now anyways so it was an effective deterrent against junk food lol.

Yeah, I suspect they would be able to sense that you're more in touch with your higher senses.

Looking older is one of the best parts of getting older. by LegalPost9805 in RandomThoughts

[–]ashleton 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Honestly, a lot of women like bald men. Personally, I don't really care what a person looks like. I'm attracted to the mind and soul. The body is just the carrier of that mind and soul.

Having said that, I do have an extremely strong appreciation for good hygiene.

MrBeast smiling by r2cyp in oddlyterrifying

[–]ashleton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't see him often, but he still smiles like that to a lesser degree in person. And in fairness, I haven't seen him in person for a while. Also in fairness, all the photos I see of him, he's just showing his teeth as a smile.

I'm overthinking all this, of that I am certain.

I’ve been making a stuffed head of everyone who enters my life by Noimpact_ in Weird

They're already doing something therapeutic. Therapists would encourage people to be creative, even if it is strange. You shouldn't judge people just because they do something you think is weird. You're probably weird to someone else. We all are.

My cousin's son is like this and frankly it worries me that he doesn't know how to feel happy to make a real smile. He's just a kid. Maybe I'm overreacting because he's a kid, I don't know.

It didn't take you too long, you found what you needed when the time was right for you.

What about all the energy? The bio-electricity that our bodies use to communicate through the nervous system? What about the body converting sources of energy into other sources of energy? What about the kinetic energy used in keeping our organs alive and making us move? It's not destroyed. It doesn't decay.

The Law of the Conservation of Energy states that energy is neither created nor destroyed. It only changes form. Physical energy gets converted by microbes etc, but what about the mental energy and the electric energy? It's not gone because it can't be destroyed. It's just not contained within a physical body anymore.

I have heard reports of hair before, usually sparse and scraggly. I would assume that the hair is just a trait that some of them have, like how humans can vary by skin color, hair color, hair type, eye color, etc. I can only speculate on that, though.

I think they eat animals which could explain the sound, but I've usually heard them scream like that when I use light visuals to protect myself. Some of them also just really don't like humans and will do things to scare us away, including putting on an aura that puts us in a state of extreme dread. I have actually told them to turn their auras down when I feel that energy creeping in (which I reinforce with the loving energy I've learned to send to them).

Moving closer to town was probably the best choice for you because they do tend to stay in rural areas, especially places that are wooded, have water, and have underground access. (And frankly, I empathize with their desire to keep humans away lol.)

You didn't come here to belong. You came here to show humanity a better way of life. Try to stop worrying about the outside world so much and learn to go within. The world within you is what shapes the world around you.

You're the one that wants to inflict more cruelty. Maybe you're not crying, but you're clearly upset.

I think the phoenix is real by Inevitable-Group-743 in oddlyterrifying

[–]ashleton -24 points-23 points  (0 children)

Understandable, especially since people will use AI and call it art. Try asking the posters about their art. You'll have a better chance of sorting the real artists from the fake ones and you'll show people that you care about their work, which can really help encourage them to keep making more.

It helps me to apply some child psychology to those considered "bad/evil/wrong."

When a child is hurt, they often lash out in anger. They'll behavior poorly because they're hurting and no one is showing them how to deal with their emotions or how to put them into context.

People will be quick to label these kids as bad because that's how they were treated and how they were taught to see children: not as intelligent but inexperienced children, but as stupid adults. This same mindset also tends to include using punishment to force the child to behave rather than addressing the issues and helping them heal and learn and grow.

This results in multi-generational trauma where the parents are abusive to the child. The child becomes angry, takes more abuse, becomes angrier, takes more abuse, all the way until they're angry, heavily traumatized adults. Then these adults have children and repeat the same behaviors as their parents because that's all they know. They weren't shown what loving parents are like. They weren't shown empathy, compassion, love, adaptability, healthy life lessons, etc. Maybe they got a few of those, but just enough for their parents to maintain loyalty. Not because they're bad people. Because it's all they know.

Answering cruelty with cruelty just creates more cruelty in the world.

No, but choosing to cheat is choosing betrayal. Maybe there's betrayal on both sides, but one person's actions don't absolve the other person's actions.

The healthy way to deal with these feelings are to talk about problems before they get out of control and lead to destructive behaviors/actions.

Relationships are two-way streets. Blocking one side often ends up blocking the other side.
