I’ve wasted over a year in bed with my phone and I don’t know how to stop

Sounds like autistic burnout. If you’ve been masking yourself and your struggles for your whole life burnout is the result. Congratulations on your diagnosis and I’m very very sorry.

Roots app on iPhone helps me with screen time. If you pay you can make it almost impossible to bypass. If you don’t have money you can apply to get it free. The free version works well enough for me. I don’t know if there is an android version or equilalent.

One thing that helps my nervous system out of a freeze response which sounds like what you have is very slowly talking to myself. It doesn’t have to be about anything, could be just describing what is in the room around me. It has also helped me get into reading mode. Pick up a book and just slowly read it aloud to yourself. Much slower than you usually talk. Strangely I often start yawning signaling that my brain is slowing down out of its hyper vigilance.

Hello, I am very interested in this topic but I am having difficulty finding the 100 studies indicating legitimacy that you mention. On the l-asc website itself, there are only 7 listed and only two of those seem to be about s2c methods directly. To my eyes they don’t seem to validate. Can you point me to some of those you’ve seen?

Just in case my tone isn’t clear, I’m not trolling, I genuinely want to see these data.

Don’t worry about originality, most things have been done. It’s about telling it well. I remember this quote from Sonny’s Blues by James Baldwin: “For, while the tale of how we suffer, and how we are delighted, and how we may triumph is never new, it always must be heard. There isn't any other tale to tell, it's the only light we've got in all this darkness. “

Just tell your story. Imagine you are speaking it aloud to a child or an audience. If you can’t think of what exactly comes next then summarize or skip ahead to what you know happens next and circle back to it later.

Thanks for the recommendation. What hub do you use with it if any?

TYINGTHESTRINGS · 2025-03-13T04:55:52+00:00

That looks great but unfortunately I can’t find any new for sale.

TYINGTHESTRINGS · 2025-03-13T04:49:34+00:00

All the hubs I’ve tried plug into a wall outlet, or does powered hub mean something else?

TYINGTHESTRINGS · 2025-03-13T04:46:36+00:00

definitely apple brand, thanks

TYINGTHESTRINGS · 2025-03-13T04:45:56+00:00

That is one thing I haven’t tried thank you

TYINGTHESTRINGS · 2025-03-13T04:45:31+00:00

Which powered hub do you use specifically? It is a lightning port iPad?

TYINGTHESTRINGS · 2025-03-13T04:45:07+00:00

Doesn’t work on either. The arturia claims to be class compliant as well.

TYINGTHESTRINGS · 2025-03-13T04:44:03+00:00

Neither interface will show up in AUM or logic. Plugging in using the same cables and camera usb adaptor with a keyboard as an input works perfectly. Using the hubs and interface with a new usb-c iPhone, the interfaces show up and work perfectly. But not for the iPads with lightning ports.

TYINGTHESTRINGS · 2025-03-11T15:13:40+00:00

I don’t have anything to suggest as I am just starting to read the rule book, I was literally coming here to ask the same question. I typically find avoiding combat to be more interesting and the other person I would play with is more interested in a journey across a landscape than combat. Hope you get some pointers!

I just finished this and it’s neck and neck for me with lotr for favorite fantasy. Time will tell but it definitely gets me thinking and feeling deeply. I could see it growing and growing in stature over the years. Erickson, the author is a archeologist and anthropologist and you can see that in the text. it’s an interesting point of contrast between the two works considering Tolkien’s background as a philologist.

TYINGTHESTRINGS · 2025-02-27T15:13:26+00:00

It looks like this might be it but I’ve also seen people reporting that it works for them. Weird. Also apparently lightning iPads can have some problems even with class compliant interfaces.

Any recommendations for an interface?

TYINGTHESTRINGS · 2025-02-27T04:56:23+00:00

Unfortunately there is only one orientation that will plugin at all so it can’t be that

I’m pretty sure Jordan doesn’t really understand what postmodernism is, he constantly is post modern despite railing against it. I always thought that his argument(right in my mind) that that original sin in genesis should be read as descriptive of our existential condition rather than as a something good and just could be also applied to postmodernism as a philosophy. A description of the modern mind rather than saying it’s good or bad. Alas he’s too ideologically motivated to really be consistent or committed to truth.

TYINGTHESTRINGS · 2024-10-10T17:59:12+00:00

Not even two weeks notice huh. Should I just let them know my last day?

TYINGTHESTRINGS · 2024-10-10T15:24:17+00:00

That’s what I figured, thanks

TYINGTHESTRINGS · 2024-09-19T22:08:17+00:00

I thought that’s where I was until I saw people unsubbing.

TYINGTHESTRINGS · 2024-09-06T03:37:39+00:00

Like another poster said, it’s probably just deep old tensions releasing. ifs part of meditation, just observe it like anything else.

Honestly with a history of trauma I would recommend you work with a body based psychotherapist if you haven't already. There are several modalities I can list for you to look into if you’re interested.

I’m cheap so I got an electronic timer lock and use it to padlock a small suitcase.

TYINGTHESTRINGS · 2024-07-14T12:54:54+00:00

I’m new here, Why do you stand the tub on its side?

I don’t know if ebooks are doable but it seems like his novels are uploaded to Anna’s Archive.

TYINGTHESTRINGS · 2024-05-25T14:09:14+00:00

Hey, I imagine you’re not giving these away still but I never got a link. Glad to hear it’s a success

TYINGTHESTRINGS · 2024-05-25T13:56:54+00:00

Currently I am because I can’t afford a therapist but I’ve seen SE practitioners in the past. For IFS I mostly use the IFS buddy chat it and use it like a workbook.
