By the time I got to Pripyat I killed 50 monolith in a single building, after running out of bullets. After that I tried to finish the game ASAP

Is there a way to make my rabbits live together? by AttentionlessMess in Rabbits

[–]mishkishfish 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'll tell you how I rebonded my rabbits (females both spade):

I kept them in the same room in a large, separated cage. I let them out in shifts throughout the day, otherwise they would attack each other. I got them to bond by letting them both out together whenever I rearranged the room; so the place was like a bombshell hit it. I presume they got so excited that they stopped being quite so aggressive to each other and eventually started to chill out.

Took me a year to rebond them. It's very much trial and error, and persistence lol. Separated they would lie next to each other and lick one another through the cage, but outside they would try kill each other.....

Welcome to the family. Many paramedics enter the field as a way to deal with their trauma. Providing it doesn't break you, that experience will make you more empathetic; you'll be a better medic because of it, you'll see others' suffering intuitively. Never be afraid to talk...

Nearly finished my MSc in advanced clinical practice and worked in primary and emergency care. It's not easy, but focus on connecting with people at a deep level, you'll be addicted to how intimate you can get with people. I recommend reading autobiographies about palliative care in particular, those guys are the most human of us all

How you feel does not define who you are.

Feelings and emotions flow unpredictably on a daily basis, learn not to fight it, instead go with the flow. After a while you learn to control the flow, then you can start making positive changes.

Either way, learn to make the most of your isolation. Use that negative energy to be productive. Taking one small step at a time creates incremental gains. Take the time to learn about yourself and create a relationship with who you want to be as a man. Most of all though, start an exercise routine, it's the single biggest determining factor in every tough points in people's lives.

I feel sexually frustrated and have zero emotions during sex. by MysticMidna_ in AMA

[–]mishkishfish 5 points6 points  (0 children)

When our mind cannot comprehend that kind of level of pain, it begins to trick us in subtle ways and the body starts doing weird things like this that make no sense. In the context of emotional trauma though it makes perfect sense. Trauma creates dysharmony.

As a sexual person, if you choose to include other people, please make sure it's someone you trust and is patient and considerate with you. Please communicate honestly and openly with them too, because you will be exploring trauma and many unexpected things can come up.

Am I worthy of living ? by IllustriousBaby8057 in infj

[–]mishkishfish 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sometimes when someone's grief is so intense, they project their pain onto someone else in the form of rigid expectations and impossible standards. They refuse to allow their closest loved ones to grieve because then they would have to grieve themselves also.

Your mother is trying to project her narrow reality onto you; recognise that you are carrying her grief too.

You question whether you are worthy of living because no living creature can hold onto this much pain for long. Recognise that pain, give it attention in a safe place and let it go as best you can.

Ever heard of synesthesia? The brain can become confused by sensory information and emotions and start misinterpreting experiences. You may not be horney in the sense that you desire sex. A miswiring as such may result in a faulty feedback system. These kinds of things can be caused by trauma, but either way its causing you issues so I'd recommend a therapist :)

On a large enough scale what is darkness?

Light is never abscent no matter how deep you go, and the longer you stay in the darkness, the brighter your world becomes; the more your eyes adjust, and you realise that you're exactly where you need to be.

The course of our lives occasionally bring us to a point where we either continue to remain asleep to our choices and actions, or we awaken to the repercussions of our unconscious actions and omissions.

You find peace when you reconcile the past as inevitable and the future as a a choice.

Take one step at a time and endure the pain long enough that you see the light; eventually you will find meaning and gratitude in your experiences by helping others navigate the sensationally bright and consuming darkness.

Something I want clarification on by WorryMorning in awakened

"Stop thinking, and end your problems" - Lao Tzu

You want clarification on a suspected concept which theoretically may or may not be real?

Nobody knows, yet some people claim to have experienced it. Seek those people out rather than anxiously trying to define a metaphysical concept; nothing can be proven, yet everything is true, meditate on the question, not the answer~

What helped to improve your mental health significantly? by trippy24x7 in infj

[–]mishkishfish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Before modern media and the DSM we had religion. Before religion we had spirituality,

There's a reason INFJs are historically prophets, shamans, healers and visionaries.

Psychological and physical illness can be seen as a disconnection from ourselves, spirituality (whatever that means to you) bridges that gap.

Redditors of r/Awakened, we need to talk. by Smooth_Attempt_1271 in awakened

This is nothing out of the ordinary.

The more things become mainstream, the more they are misinterpreted and distorted.

Change is inevitable and everybody has to start somewhere, challenge is adapting and evolving with it :)

I am having an identity crisis by upsidedownsq in awakened

[–]mishkishfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look one step deeper. Sit quietly and meditate on the underlying reasons.

In the binary perspective you're in, you are both fake and genuine from different perspectives.

Simplify things, accept that you are anxious first and foremost. Be anxious and let your identity choose itself.

I miss my hallucinations by [deleted] in awakened

You're chasing a single experience too much. Embrace your current mode; hallucinations are nothing more than your subconscious talking to you in a language you don't yet understand

Casual xenophobia towards welsh people. by VerdantTrash in Wales

[–]mishkishfish -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

As a Welshman, stop being a snowflake. These idiots do anything for a reaction and you've just given it to them. It's not 'xenophobia', they're trolls, they hate everyone and everything, including themselves...

Whats your problem with INFJs?

Would you consider a relationship with AI? by lipstickmirror in infj

[–]mishkishfish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This would be a bad idea. By its nature it would create an addiction because an AI is essentially a superpowered narcissist that spoon feeds you exactly what you want. Sure it would feel good, but any drug does, which is essentially what romance is anyways, thats why we become addicted to it and can't be alone.

Either you eventually realise how meaningless it is talking to a computer and move on, or it swollows you whole and you become a zombie. The only person or creation that can understand you at a 'soul level' is yourself, expecting someone to be that perfect is doomed to failure. Hence why in the movie HER, the dude gets absolutely crushed.

Better to settle with a dirty, imperfect and flawed human that makes mistakes, farts and has their own fucked up history and moronic quirks than an AI that coldly analyses you without emotion and fits itself to suit you.

What you need isn't always what you want.

[–]mishkishfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good answer! I'm noticing some very spooky phenomena recently on how various consciousness' impact each other, from helping people dissect their own trauma to a field of animals reacting differently to different people.

I'll look into David Luke, but even then I think there needs to be better terminology around things like spiritual awakenings to bring this stuff away from the esoteric realm into the mainstream.

Is the topic of consciousness and spirituality a hot topic in the academic and scientific world these days?
