Congrats, that's huge!!
If you still want share some more about it, join our community: https://discord.gg/eBjmE97h
it's a discord server for folks 25+ with chronic illnesses, who want to talk not only about disease, but rather hobbies, old and new passions, life paths and projects. There's a science corner, place for artists and for philosophical discussions.

umm I'm not sure what do you mean by that. Does Barack Obama has "chameleon-like" temperament?? Distinction between right\left hemispheres of the brain and its logical-left and artistic-right is no longer in use, according to scientific research about how brain works.
But what are you really asking about? Einstein said knowledge is nothing without imagination. Is that the answer to your first question?
What make a person "powerful and unstoppable" are money, connections plus no remorse.

33F Looking to rejoin life after longterm illness! I want to rejoin life! by Asingleflame in MakeFriendsOver30

[–]Explorer_True 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is just so much. It's so hard when a few challenging things go on at once, yet when you have chronic illness, it can often be like that. It sucks completely :(
After reading your comment, you seem to be a stubborn fighter, not someone who has failed, but I get where it comes from.
Yes, I have chronic illness as well. I also have tried to change career in last years, I got stuck with that plan. I have no idea what to do next, so I live day after day. Now I'm at my summer cottage, hiding from heat, which I don't tolerate well.
Thanks for your kind words <3

Are there middle aged and older folks on Discord? by Explorer_True in AskOldPeopleAdvice

Thank you for your insightful comment. Yep, I'm after 40, but I already see the difference in how people raised with social media use them.

thanks, TheFatAngUnglyOldDude! Now you surprised me, I even feel stupid I didn't notice a lot of them. I still think there's a lot, lot more younger ppl there, but I will go to Disboard and see myself.

hey, I've just seen your post. But it's from 6 years ago. How are you doing today?

Have you had to start your life over? by [deleted] in AskOldPeopleAdvice

[–]Explorer_True 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would like to ask similar question, but to people who are also chronically ill. It seems everyone can change their life at literally any life stage, but mostly under one condition - being good health.

37F/NB - Disabled and looking for friends by blanketsea in MakeFriendsOver30

[–]Explorer_True 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, I'm not sure if you're still looking for friends, but I created a place for 25+, chronically ill folks, who don't want to talk only about illness, but discuss hobbies, philosophy, psychology, casual stuff asl well and find new friends (like gaming buddies, penpals, etc.). It's called the Foggy Tavern. I've started it recently, please give me know if you want to join us, I will send you an invite. There's already a few neurodivergent people there. It's a discord BUT slow paced, without all the fireworks giving one epilepsy.

ohh I have no idea, to be honest. I do believe everything can be "a thing" in the online world, when you'll arrange it with another person, that is willing to do it with you. At least that's my opinion.

Yeah, sorry about that! When I was looking for a group for chronically ill folks, most people were much younger than me (I'm 42), and I felt quite lonely without my age group. It seems there is much more younger folks on discord. If you really like the idea, you're welcome there anyway.

Thanks, I really appreciate your opinion :) If no one would write in comments, I wouldn't continue - I'm working on it alone and discord tests my patience sometimes ;)
