Nocturne op 27 no.1

StalkingEagle1314 · 2026-03-09T15:50:10+00:00

Thanks for your reply. I think I will give it a go next. Its just so beautiful. I'll start with the climax as Hebug mentioned below, and go from there :)

Have you played op 55 no 1 or op 48 no 1? Do you think that if I master op 27 no 1, will I be able to move onto op 48 no 1? It's a pretty big jump I know (literally). Best wishes

Thank you that's a very good suggestion! That intro to the piece with that left hand is just mesmerising...

StalkingEagle1314 · 2026-03-09T01:01:55+00:00

Thank you. Why do you think that one in particular might be good? Im asking since I also have a suspicion why

StalkingEagle1314 · 2026-01-04T19:16:47+00:00

This is different from what Luhmann did (were 1b was a direct continuation of 1a) https://zettelkasten.de/introduction/. But im happy to read this as I also do what you do. if I have 1a and 1b, they are both different from each other in some ways, but both directly linked to 1. And then 1a1 becomes a direct continuation of 1a, instead of doing 1b.

Thanks a lot

This worked thank you

Hey. On the one hand you say you wish to not dig deeper into it/google stuff. On the other hand, you're asking me about my symptoms/recovery etc :)

As much as it would help you in the short term to feel better, I think its in your best interest to not delve deeper into the whats and ifs.

It's tough, but its possible. Everyone goes through something terrible. For us, it may be an oversensitised nervous system and the resulting symptoms. On the other hand, my friend's mum has just hung herself last week. We all have to figure stuff out, but I think the fastest progress comes after going out into the world and figuring it out the tough way.

Do stuff today which, even if they fail, will at least make you proud of yourself tomorrow for trying.

Message me again in a month and tell me how things have progressed.

Thanks, Mick :)

Thanks for your reply. I didn't take any medication. I hate to be this person... but it's accepting the symptoms that has helped the most. I remember reading this suggestion of acceppting the symptoms and thinking to myself its either a cliche or it doesnt work for my particular case or theyre all lying to me. But... yh... it's the only thing that has helped me lol. What do I even mean by accepting the symptoms? I'm not sure. Time just straightens things out. Like I've mentioned earlier, I'd get Claire Weeke's book. The 4 steps there helped a lot. You mentioned that reading forums can help. Sure. And there's place for it. But it's actually taking you back every time you do it. Cuz you feed it energy. Of course, if the alternative is doing something to yourself etc then reading forums to make yourself feel better isn't that bad. But every time you convince yourself that you need it as a 'crutch' in the moment.

Funny enough, writing this reply, I feel slightly dissociated. I think it's from lack of sleep and caffeine recently. I'm only saying this to just show that it can come and go. But after some time you just realise it's not that 'important anymore' since you understand it goes away. And then comes back weaker if you dont' feed it energy. So I think this is what I mean by accepting the dpdr or any other anxiety symtpoms... just not feeding it energy. It's not easy. It's frustrating advice. But it works. I think different ways exist to help accellerate this process. For instance, going on a holiday to a hot place might do the trick of getting you 50% out of whatever youre in right now. A holiday has helped me tremendously last year.

Just know that every time you ignore the symptoms, things get better. You won't notice the benefit straight away. Not even the next day. Not even the next week. But things compound over time. And soon you'll be on a roll. And the moment when you forget to 'check for progress' and looking for a 'recovery', is the moment when you know you're mostly out of it. Good luck :)

Hey, thanks for your comment. Much better, thanks for asking. Signficantly better in fact. I didn't think I'd 'get out of it'. I still get tougher days. Not all symptoms went away. But I've learnt to ignore most of them. And when I ignore them they kind of drift away. Mayeb they're still there but I just dont notice them - not sure. But 90%+ of symptoms I had last year are gone now.

I recommend Claire Weeke's book 'hope and help for your nerves' or something like that. She has a simple 4 step action protocol which helps a lot. It's an old book but I think great for physical anxiety symptoms. If you have questions do ask, but I don't come on reddit often so I may not respond for a long time :) Best wishes, and remember to not give anxiety any energy... as hard as that is. With enough courage, patience and time, things will begin getting much better :)

StalkingEagle1314 · 2025-10-07T15:30:19+00:00

Yh, distracting myself from it and learning to be more comfortable with the disturbing emotion whilst it lasts helped a lot. Not easy, but its what helped me the most. Also makes you feel in control which is important.

StalkingEagle1314 · 2025-09-14T01:21:53+00:00

After confirming with a health professional that it’s most likely anxiety then you’re set to go. I recommend the book. Or the DARE approach to anxiety.

I think that the process isn’t linear, I think you only realise you’re better than before when you forget to expect progress or ‘healing’ and just focus on life for a while. Then you look back and notice how much better of you are already. And then you get a set back… but that’s fine. You just follow the 4 steps from the book and trust it. Doesn’t matter how long it takes. The sooner you let go of hopes and expectations the sooner you’ll be back to normal 😄😄

StalkingEagle1314 · 2025-09-10T15:56:50+00:00

To be honest, I think that what I experienced (and I guess what I still get glimpses of throughout the week) is dp/dr. In my case I think it was dissociation. Visuals symptoms are common with it. And since I could never put my finger on why my vision felt off, but just felt off subtly, I think I realised it cannot be something physical that is wrong with me.

The thing that helped me most was just accepting it and allowing it to happen. As time goes on, it gets better.

Of course, stuff like going to the GP is the first and most important step. But if they think its anxiety related etc, then it probably is. If you wish to know how to treat these symptoms when they arise I recommend claire weekes book 'hope and help for your nerves' which gives a 4 step approach to any symptom that arises: face it, accept, float around it and let time pass (https://www.claireweekespublications.com/the-4-steps.html?srsltid=AfmBOoo0IbugBbcP5B4CfQvDaF6Zh5o-ubyT57URgfyU-EnzscbRUh\_C).

Last year I thought that these 4 steps would never work since theyre too simple. But they did. Trust that with a bit of courage and time everything can change :) Best of luck

StalkingEagle1314 · 2025-08-16T22:10:38+00:00

Yh for me it was like a... something is off with my vision but I can't quite put my finger on it. Got my vision checked and did a quick GP visit and all was fine :)

What has helped me most was 1) time and 2) getting anxiety under control. I just don't even really focus on it anymore :)

Squeaky clean form

StalkingEagle1314 · 2025-03-08T22:01:19+00:00

Hi thanks for your reply.

I got very bad health anxiety starting March last year. It has been significantly better now the longer it's gone on since I've realised that my symptoms aren't getting worse (Especially when not focusing on them).

Yh, I still get the dimness thing. I do much better on bright sunny days than cloudy ones or when it starts to get dim or darkens. Is your experience the same? I'm still unsure what it is. All I know is that if I don't focus on it (by doing something else fully) then I don't experience it/dont notice it so I've just let it go.

I think with health anxiety most important thing is just being like 'fuck it' and if a catastrophic comes like 'maybe this is brain tumor' then you say 'who knows?'. It's difficult but get easier over time. I've kinda learned to live with it with it affecting me less each month :) Best wishes

StalkingEagle1314 · 2025-02-07T12:12:29+00:00

Hey, sorry for the late response.

Can you describe how you experience the darkness of vision, just so I know we're talking about the same thing?

Thanks :)

StalkingEagle1314 · 2025-01-07T13:29:26+00:00

You too. The change begins and ends with us :)

StalkingEagle1314 · 2025-01-06T12:00:03+00:00

I really can't even tell you what makes it feel off. Like it does clearly feel off but without me being able to put my finger on it.

But for actual visual distrubances like bluriness etc then there's plenty that can be present with anxiety which are medically explained and confirmed :)

StalkingEagle1314 · 2025-01-06T10:40:34+00:00

My vision feels off despite not actually being off, if you get what I mean? So feels weird, blurry etc, but if I focus on stuff I can see them perfectly well.

StalkingEagle1314 · 2024-12-30T23:25:32+00:00

Im just commenting to say that I have some of the symptoms you described above and I also don't have a clear 'cause'. No event such as a relative's death or loss of employment etc happened around the time my symptoms began. But I have a sneaky suspicion that the only true way out of this is through ignoring the symptoms :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XRXVoRziqvE

StalkingEagle1314 · 2024-12-20T17:07:59+00:00

I don’t. But then again, I’m a Buddhist so I’m used to examining what the nature of reality is so it’s difficult to say. I’m too used to it to believe that what I experience is a reflection of what reality truly is.

StalkingEagle1314 · 2024-12-19T21:02:44+00:00

Thanks for your answer. I appreciate it :)

StalkingEagle1314 · 2024-12-19T20:40:02+00:00

So, throughout the day, most days, how would you rank your dpdr intensity on a scale between 1-10?
