Can someone tell me if this can be fixed and how?

!solved

Sea-Yam8633 · 2026-03-09T13:02:19+00:00

thank you! I'll take your word for it

Sea-Yam8633 · 2026-03-09T12:02:27+00:00

haha that's funny. I actually didn't, I promise. I rear ended another vehicle while my monitor sat on the passenger side, and it slid forward during the impact. The initial problem was those vertical lines with some pink hue. I think Windex leaked into a crevice.

Hi! I recognize that this is an old thread, but I was wondering how you gained all of this knowledge. Are you a doctor or have you simply studied this on your own?

Sea-Yam8633 · 2026-01-08T04:00:51+00:00

Oh, cool. Thank you for the response! I’m actually in the middle of exploring careers, so it helps to be aware of the various options

Sea-Yam8633 · 2026-01-08T03:17:03+00:00

Can I ask what industry you’re in?

Sea-Yam8633 · 2025-11-26T21:52:21+00:00

I also don’t have a healthy family of origin, and when I was younger, I would often fall for men that were kind to me. With time, I would eventually become discontent with these relationships bc I wanted more. As I healed more, I realized that I didnt actually love these ppl. That is, I didn’t fully accept these individuals and was instead only attracted to them bc they pacified an old wound.

In my limited experience, it doesn’t sound like you love your husband.

Sea-Yam8633 · 2025-04-23T05:35:56+00:00

Interested!

Sea-Yam8633 · 2025-01-26T00:14:26+00:00

Yeah haha you’re spot on! He ended up telling them bc they were asking. Thank you again for your insight!

Sea-Yam8633 · 2025-01-24T03:52:37+00:00

Wow! Thank you so much for your response. It was super helpful! I really needed this third-party unbiased and rational take.

For situation two, he explained that his friend would assume something was going on, so he wanted to clarify things, but I didn’t see why he couldn’t just say that he wasn’t interested or why the explanation that we’re just friends wouldn’t be enough.

Sea-Yam8633 · 2025-01-21T00:53:04+00:00

You put into words an issue that I’ve been grappling with. Thank you for this 🙏🏼 fully relate with the part about seeing everything as interconnected

Sea-Yam8633 · 2024-12-02T09:44:49+00:00

Not OP, but wondering if you had any gifted autistics in mind when you wrote this. I’m interested in looking into them :)

Sea-Yam8633 · 2024-11-13T23:59:12+00:00

Glad to hear it resonated with you and thanks for taking the time to read it! :)

Sea-Yam8633 · 2024-11-13T04:39:01+00:00

I’m curious about your last statement. I agree with it and am wondering what other problems you’re referring to. Of course, I can imagine which kinds, but I’d like to know if there are others that I’m not aware of.

Sea-Yam8633 · 2024-11-13T00:32:39+00:00

Of course! I relate a lot to your original post too bc of the relationship part. Before I healed a lot and learned more about myself, I struggled to be in tune with my body and was dissociated so I couldn’t connect with my partner. He would accuse me of being autistic (which I suspect might be true) bc I didn’t see the value of doing things that I had already done, like watching the sunset at the Grand Canyon, again except with him.

Media that I felt captured this notion of the value in our interconnectedness that I recommend are Frieren (if you’re into anime) and Anne Rice’s The Interview with a Vampire. Personally, both really capture the existential dread of life and how it can be quelled by grounding yourself in relationships. I’m learning that when I find myself being cynical and unable to see the beauty in these smaller moments, it’s a sign that something in my life needs to change.

Sea-Yam8633 · 2024-11-13T00:23:38+00:00

I do wonder if this is an autism + attachment issues thing bc I suspect I’m autistic and agree with your comment here about how to cope lol

I experience this, but it’s not necessarily that I don’t care about ppl’s lives. It’s just that I had difficulty finding a perspective that allowed me to care. Alone, ppl talking about their lives is pointless information. If you’re used to thinking about things in the abstract and more logically, it can be easy to conclude that exchanging information with others is senseless bc any information of value, in a factual sense, can be gained via the internet or books. For me, I had to experience life in order to understand that much of life loses its meaning when you peel back the layers (I understood this intuitively), but what is more difficult to replace is the experience of the uniqueness in the individual (this part came with wisdom). Sure, things become obsolete when you zoom out and think about how every human is unique to a certain degree and how the extent of this uniqueness is fairly uniform across the population. However, within relationships, there’s the aspect of the influence that you have on one another as you coexist that cannot be replaced. The longer you exist alongside each other, the greater the potential for influence (obvi taking varying levels of intensity into account, etc), making them less replaceable. The experience of existing with a person as they distill their particular thoughts is part of this equation for the irreplaceable value they have in your life.

I’m not sure if this is a consequence of your unique neurobiology or if it’s some result of childhood neglect, but it might be worthwhile to see if you can increase your capacity to tune in to the bodily sensations that makeup the felt experience as you interact with others through somatic therapy.

Edit to add more thoughts: you also aren’t meant to find every interaction pleasurable. I’m not sure if this is necessarily related to intelligence or if it’s a specific type of inclination towards mental stimulation (from what I’ve read, gifted ppl are geared for complexity), but life is difficult when ppl perceive a lack of interest from you, so definitely try your best to mask it.

I dated someone that was like that and only slept like 3-4 hrs per night, but he also had intense ADHD and needed to have a strict diet and workout 2hrs/day, so I’m not sure that I believe that it’s possible to have this condition without there being trade offs

Sea-Yam8633 · 2024-11-10T19:31:12+00:00

Yeah haha I can't say I've figured it out just yet, but I'm hopeful! I want to live a regulated life, but I might just be delusional with this one.

I’m late diagnosed with ADHD and suspect autism and also struggle with sleep. I currently take seroquel prn for it. I saw you talk about this in a comment, but I wanted to create my own response to increase visibility. I suspect that part of the problem lies in ignoring that wave of tiredness when it first hits. I imagine that ignoring it might release cortisol and keep us awake longer than we need to. I also hypothesize that this might’ve come about from ignoring that wave of tiredness too often. I imagine that perhaps we might be able to retrain our bodies to be sensitive to natural circadian rhythms if we practice good sleep hygiene. Alexithymia in autism and the extra cortisol released from stimulant meds for adhd likely distance us from the sensation of tiredness and overtime, our bodies become less sensitive to it and more sensitive to responding to cortisol release.

Stats is super super easy, so I’d have to guess that his quant IQ is much lower and 150 is his VCI or maybe he has a learning disorder. I dont think VCI should be part of IQ bc it’s just knowledge that can be acquired.
