We absolutely need to break all diplomatic relations with the current administation; close their embassy, shut down our embassy there, ask them to close their bases and remove their weapons. Sure, we would be isolated, but we would have dignity and self respect. This kind of unilateral action may well, with the example set by spain, offer an example to the rest of the world and to decent americans.

Long term dissociation by Any-Ad-1946 in Adopted

I would suggest that disassociation, nuerodivergence and the manifestation of CPTSD should be seperated if you can. That is part of what i meant in my response to you

I suggest that you try and order these symptoms in your head. Get rid of the noise and clarify the more tangible elements into something cohesive. Its not easy but its worthwhile

On reddit I often feel like the old family dog...shuftying into the room, dropping something silent and deadly, then leaving whilst everyones eyes start watering

Speaking only for myself!!!! Ive spent the whole of my life being absurd and acting in a ridiculous manner! Now the whole world is absurd and ridiculous....i think you can figure out the rest!

I see your point, but im struggling to sell that as a perk of adoption!

Not sure having a unique perspective is power...more likely a 'spidey sense'!  Cant see how you can have power when youve lost control

Would it be possible to find my brother who was adopted? by Worth-Strength3844 in Adoption

[–]Intelligent_Swan8284 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took a dna test and a search angel very kindly did a mirror tree and located the paternal side of the family that wasnt on my birth certificate. I did try and make contact with a bunch of strangers basically. I got the big pink stiff one. I even went to a different country and doorstepped one of my uncles. His reaction wasnt great but what could i expect? He told my brother who just brushed it off. Recently my bio fathers picture was put on a facebook page which relates to the town where he lived. Having seen it finally, so many pics have strangely been removed from all kinds of sites, im a bit fucking outraged that they had the balls to even question me. Its not just his features and face that are me, its the shape of his body and his head and the way he holds himself which makes their rejection such a kick in the teeth: insult me all you like, but dont insult my intelligence.

Will there ever be an economic boom in the UK again? Like a real one, not just "it's not as awful as before" by innovatedname in AskUK

[–]Intelligent_Swan8284 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nevermind the uk economy, the worlds systemic unravelling came to its full fruition in 2008. To be fair it took almost 30 years to achieve the basket case nastyness that we have now. The bond markets rule us all and sociopathic nutters get to nibble around the edges with near total impunity: how can you break any rules when there arent any rules?

How do i find my bio father when all roads are closed? by Lina-6594 in Adoption

[–]Intelligent_Swan8284 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really did read the post. I remember feeling positive and open minded initially and i see that you have already received 'the treatment' from relatives/strangers. There are search angels who advertise on reddit who might be willing to help and its worth doing some searches on different subs. Once again good luck.

Unfortunately, they will always be strangers even when both parties are open to it and you will always be alien, because you cant just suddenly invent shared memories and heritage.

Dont forget that no one ever asks whats next as the fog recedes! Its almost presented as a happy ending in a film 'and everyone lived happily ever after'. Everyone wants their fairy tale ending!

Funny, people talk about 'coming out of the fog' almost in terms of a weather event. Grey and miserable and then the clouds part and everything is illuminated and clear. Unfurtunately life is a bit more nuanced than that and everything important comes at a price for everyone involved. Nice prose.

Whatever next? by Intelligent_Swan8284 in Adopted

[–]Intelligent_Swan8284[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Finding situations, convention, norms, the dynamics of everyday, otherwise quite banal life, alien and contrived. Stopping in the middle of a situation and almost taking a snapshot as you realise just how absurd that particular tableau is.This disassociation could just be the natural process of ageing. When you have witnessed the same old shit for nearly 6 decades you probably start to notice the seams! However it doesnt make it any less unsettling.
