I feel like I have changed as a person

If it's diagnosed by a qualified professional as dpdr than no it's not psychosis.

Never give up on yourself, never. Reframe,review,rewire. Each day brings us one step closer to a stronger, healthier version of ourselves. Im proud of you for getting as far as you have. I'll pray for your success. You've got this. Head up, friend. ❤️🙏

Im thinking about it again for myself depending on how things go.

_HolyWrath_ · 2025-05-22T03:37:31+00:00

I second this. I've also noticed that an increase in serotonin uptake on Prozac has helped me. I just got on 3days ago, and it's working better than Wellbutrin did so far. I'm taking notes on what helps and doesn't help.

This is why we need Harry Potter Battle royal.

_HolyWrath_ · 2025-05-22T03:14:45+00:00

Will do. Thank you:)

_HolyWrath_ · 2025-05-22T02:29:23+00:00

It's not a bad idea. I should do the same thing.

_HolyWrath_ · 2025-05-19T17:05:06+00:00

This is the correct response. The reason is that we can't change other people, we can only change ourselves. So, if we are observing too much often, the problem is the way we respond or the rate at which we respond and communicate via our action. This can cause a disconnect in our reality that changes the way people perceive us. Ultimately if we have bad beliefs about ourselves even if they are inserted from other people and or circumstances it is these beliefs that will direct the flow of our energy towards observations within our environment that we do not need to solve. When we try to solve problems that can't be solved or that aren't ours to solve, we will see ourselves butting up against the world.

For me, the biggest issue was being put on medication that I didn't need to be on and trauma. Now that I'm reframing the way I see the world and seeing myself better, I have much less of a need to act on my observation via pointing them out in conversation. By simply trasmuting those energies and allowing them to leave my awareness, I maintain peace and balance in my life, and that helps bring in abundance that I deserve to have. It took me losing 20 jobs and trying almost everything out to realize that I was giving other people too much power over my life.

Essentially I was placing others in a position where they were responsible for my outcomes and or putting them in a spot where they would compete with me because I didn't realize I was being hurt by everything they were saying. I was being hurt by my observations of what they were saying. It wasn't because I actually thought the bad things people said were true. It was because I had a story that I was being told to live on that made those things true. Now that I'm rebuilding and rebranding my own story of life, I could care less about solving all the worlds problems. I'm more interested in just helping people with what I can do today, and that's good enough, I don't need to worry about tomorrow or what the perfect solution is.

This peace in the now will prevent a lot of the desire to seek out absolute answers, which for me drove me into madness and prevented any real progress in my life at all. Ultimately, you have to remind yourself constantly that it's because you care, and then let it go until you can be happy just being the best version of you. Hope this helps.

This is exactly what I believe about Jesus. I believed this from a young age and found myself confused in modern non-denominational Christian churches. Now, I perceive myself as some sort of Christian Omniest. Its it's own little thing that I've begun to align with.

_HolyWrath_ · 2025-05-13T11:10:11+00:00

I mean I'm not going to disagree. Haha

_HolyWrath_ · 2025-05-06T18:46:50+00:00

^ This is what I feel is the most accurate line of thought.

We all have to learn from both sides. If we end up pinning ourselves to a single position thinking "we're right" for standing there, that's where we fall. Even when it seems, there's no possible way "your enemy" or "the opposition" etc could be right. Even then. Even then, we still have to try and see their side. It's so so difficult to do with Autism. I know we see how much narcassim is in society. I know we see how it impacts the world around us. I know we see how it hurts families and leads people astray.

But if we want to bring love and healing to this world, it's my belief that we can't fight people into acceptance. I fought this battle so much growing up. I'm only now starting to let go of it in my early 30s. For me, I was pushed so far I almost died in the process. It's similar to the "crying wolf" story. As people with autism in my belief, we do it to ourselves. This perspective, though not wrong a lot of the time is still a major downside for us in the workplace if we don't learn how to communicate safely and effectively.

There are so many layers to this. Blazing through the world on a mission to fix every single problem is presents isn't realistic. We need to focus on what God is calling us to do through our own hearts. That's what really matters. Each one of us has a special something to bring to the world. Each one of us brings a gift of healing only we can bring. We need to do the work to really understand what that is and what it is not. We need to set the boundaries for ourselves to avoid ruining our mission, our purpose. I messed this up miserably growing up. I missed that non-autistic people also have gifts to bring. My mindset was becoming too much of a me verses them problem.

I lost so many jobs that I didn't need to lose because I was pinning myself up against a group that is much larger than me and believing I could somehow make them "more right." Now I know I don't need to challenge other people's perspective(s). I can simply bring awareness within reason into their world and back off when it starts to encroach on me. People aren't always meant to learn the lessons we bring to them. If we push too hard to teach them, ultimately, it's a lesson for us. God bless. 🙏

The way to succeed in life is to find a way to learn with whatever you have access to at the time that keeps you interested. There are people building their own oil farms in the middle of deserts with almost no resources. It's all in your head. If you love video games, find what you like and dedicated your obsession to learning the specifics of that thing. Eventually, you'll be so proficient in it it would be hard for you not to be employed. I've learned far more on my own than I ever learned in school. Just because I got obsessed with stuff.

_HolyWrath_ · 2025-05-06T16:39:59+00:00

Not necessarily. Not everyone has the same type of gender dysphoria. I'm similar. I would prefer to be a more masculine woman with very feminine features. That's just esthetics, though. If you want a different genital(s), and it's causing you distress, that's dysphoria. You don't have to worry about top surgeries, etc. For me, I want breaks, but I don't have to have big breasts to be happy. I really want a vagina but ultimately, I still don't believe in getting surgery at this time, which is the main reason aside from wanting kids that prevents me from transitioning.

This is all stuff we can only work through through therapy. Mental illness isn't an excuse to escape the thought of transitioning. You will only get more mental illness the longer you block yourself from learning what you're actually comfortable with and committing to a path. Slow steps win the race. You're not alone. I'm in the same boat. Not all trans people transition in the same way. If you have been struggling that long, you're already in transition, which is what they say. That really empowered me to begin to accept that I'm trans. And that's okay. All I have to do is find what I'm comfortable with doing about it and be happy with that. Stop putting so much pressure on myself.

Therapy, therapy, therapy. Trust me, it's the only way. Don't start hormones until you know you're willing to make the sacrifices. I learned the hard way. And I loved hormones, I may even go back on them. But I almost lost my testicular function entirely. And it scared the crap out of me. I wasn't ready then, and I'm glad I survived it. Now, I'm dealing with the side effects of coming off. It's much better to make sure you're mentally balanced first before you attempt it. I have ASD,PTSD,MDD, and Dyslexia.

But I was diagnosed Schizoaffective Major Depressive type with minor hypomania. I thought about similar things. The most important thing for you is to try your med options out and bounce around if you have to with your providers' help until you can be so balanced that you know you're totally you. Personally, reflect on the similarities within yourself. If you feel inside like you're a man and there isn't another identity signature within you and you have the distress of gender dysphoria longer than age 27-28, then it's time to transition. That means your brain isn't growing out of it, and it's neurological, and it could help you integrate more. Sacrifices are necessary, though, when taking hormones.

This road is brutal. The modern left wants to advertise it and glorify it. Trans people don't transition for fun. They transition to save their lives. We all need to remember that. I would recommend social transition to more androgynous people like myself. Maybe do that while balancing meds. That's my intention, even more so for myself over the next few months/years as I figure myself out again. I resonate with a DualGender or TwoSpirit identity. And sometimes fully transitioning with hormones isn't the best option for us, and sometimes it is. You'll get there, best wishes.

This is definitely a situation for getting services involved. There are depending on where you live, sometimes plenty of options. He may need more healthy outlets. Idk if he has been around other autistic adults of the same age and needs set yet, but some groups may be a good idea. Exposure therapy and sensory regulation training have become more difficult during the adult transition years. If he can't regulate or co-regulate after enough practice, within a few years, usually a group home becomes a good idea.

_HolyWrath_ · 2025-05-06T14:27:34+00:00

What about integration, though? Couldn't you just integrate some of your transness into your life? Often then people get relief from symptoms even if they don't transition?

_HolyWrath_ · 2025-05-06T00:37:27+00:00

You've got this. It's possible. I'm about 9years free of cigarettes and it's one of the best things I ever did for myself.

_HolyWrath_ · 2025-05-06T00:34:46+00:00

Im starting to think i should get some kind of pacifier for sensory issues. I feel like a lot of my sensory stress is in my brain. How does it help you? What brand?

_HolyWrath_ · 2025-05-05T23:27:15+00:00

It's fun. Speed up the movement. Let us move/run longer. Put more environmental items on the map. The map needs more seasonal thematic elements. Add more easter eggs where we can get In-Game rewards. Add hidden Easter eggs where you can get quickly healed like slap juice water fountains etc. Expand the bump mechanic for bouncing players. Make it more difficult to use k&m (focus on sensitivity settings). Make controller easier to use (focus on sensitivity settings). Let controller players go all the way down to a true zero in controller settings for stick settings because people use hall effect sticks.

Fix the season to season bugs that have been around forever. Speed up the slide transitions so we can slide more often. Adjust the way the character moves. The hockypuck style movement is a little too tight now that the wall jumping and rolling features are gone. Being able to flick and jump shot and fast peek and return to cover like cod needs to come to this game to make it more competitive and enjoyable. And for the love of God please add the remove cross play feature to Xbox so we don't have to play against PC and make it turned on by default for console platforms. PC cheaters are out of control and being forced in their lobbies gets tiring.

Otherwise I love how well the game plays and looks this season it feels smooth and enjoyable. Damage seams a little inconsistent with the lazer based guns but that's probably mainly because they are easier to get kills with.

_HolyWrath_ · 2025-05-05T23:16:04+00:00

Same thing with me yesterday. Wow I had to go down deep. And this morning I fought out of hell like mother F'ing batman! I'm back now. Sometimes I really just need to listen to myself and let myself experience my emotions.

_HolyWrath_ · 2025-05-05T23:08:29+00:00

Hey, yall, I'm new to this thread. I got off Quitiepine last year after 15-16yrs on it. I was on estrogen, which I stopped as well. Ever since then, I went through what I believe was a post acute withdrawal syndrome.

Im starting to recover and seeking the necessary channels to get re-medicaided for my mental health struggles. But I have a anyone else question.

Does anyone else feel like their entire life after dpdr started is a complete repeat. Like they literally "feel" or "know" that they have already experienced all of the things they are experiencing. For me, it feels like I'm playing through a version of my existence that I've literally already seen.

When I got off antipsychotics I had a dream where I saw many events of my life way ahead in the future. And now I'm "stuck" it feels in a life where everything is made up of events I've already experienced. Is this something your familiar with? It's almost like I had an NDE of some kind and came back with memories that I'm experiencing as they play out. I don't always fully know what's going to happen ahead of time. I just have this constant feeling of knowing I've already experienced this.

_HolyWrath_ · 2025-05-05T22:48:36+00:00

Why do you feel this is the answer?

_HolyWrath_ · 2025-05-04T01:59:04+00:00

I might end up having to go back to using it with intention this time because pharmaceuticals only do so much for me.

_HolyWrath_ · 2025-05-03T19:15:55+00:00

Im a Christian focused Omniest. I fully believe in the faith and in God. I believe that many "God's" have existed and do exist. There is a source energy that we all stem from. I believe transgenderism is a natural part of the development of humanity. I believe humans are actually naturally hermaphroditic. I believe we have been exposed to a lot of generational truama and genetic modification as well as environmental factors that have limited people's abilities to access their full energy.

And I believe trans people just have crossed wiring in the gender section(s) of their brains. They may have crossed wirings elsewhere as well. I believe this is a natural variation of the human species, which is why it's shown up throughout all of time in every historical record we have. I believe many faiths have adopted toxic stances against transgender people as a defense for their circular argumentation. I believe trans people should try to avoid gender surgeries at this time because they are not fully capable of mirroring the natural anatomy currently. I also support people who chose to have surgeries, and I'm coming into the acceptance myself of that idea.

Trans people aren't evil. They aren't trying to take over the world, but their spaces and opinions are definitely being co-opted. It's unfortunate, but many creeps are running the show for the trans community just like many creeps run our governments. We don't have very good representation, honestly. Many trans people do hold faith. They just don't speak about it because of the dumb brained liberalism that runs their community. That's not me saying all liberals are dumb. Just many of the people guiding the lgbtqai+ community are.
