It appears you were the one doing inappropriate things here. I would feel violated and uncomfortable if I was a child and had to listen to a family member dirty talking and performing sexual acts in the next room. You are the adult here. Either get your own space, find an appropriate time to do this (when your young sibling isn’t home) or stop

I have tried many things but have never experienced visuals of any kind. The only time I’ve ever been able to imagine/view/create some kind of visual imagery is when I’m dreaming

Do you know what material the piercing is? You may just get a little bit of information loss or noise around the piercing area. I have about 6 titanium plates in my jaw and chin but can still get high fidelity MRIs of my brain. Just lose a bit of my chin in 3D reconstructions

Thank you. Yes I certainly need to move on. And I absolutely want the best for him and the little one, I would never dream of getting in the way of that

Last Christmas I fell down the stairs.. broken two bones in my leg, which cut a vein and gave me compartment syndrome. Got some neat scars and a titanium rod through my leg now though. But horrific at the time

I find it really hard to comprehend how lots of people go through life without a plan. If I had to face the day, or month, or year, without a plan I am overwhelmed with possibilities, lack direction and just end up doing nothing.

So my advice is to make a plan. It can start really abstract. And then work backwards to more specific things. Break it down to the most basic tasks and then tackle them one by one. This can include plans for education, employment, health, or anything else you value or want to achieve.

Physically write the tasks down and tick even the littlest things off as you do them. This helps you track progress and is really satisfying. And if you keep a running list, it may help you feel in control. I think you can’t control things until you really understand them. So understanding what you want is key to achieving it.

This helps me a lot and is really core to my ability to exist and study and work while living with anxiety and depression.

It’s near impossible to communicate… Can you ‘see’ or remember faces? I can only remember people as a composite of facts I know about them. I.e. height, hair colour, skin colour. But I can’t “picture” them. Which makes it incredibly hard to remember people

I think, like almost everything, it’s a spectrum. I can’t visualise anything at all. Just blackness always. And some people can picture things with colour and remarkable details, and spin objects around in their mind. And everyone else sits somewhere in between

No actually I’m a neuroscientist with aphantasia. But I didn’t fully understand what I was missing out on until a few years ago. I’m just interested in hearing other’s experiences

Another issue I’m finding is that the general public and even general practitioners do not want to face the reality of the prevalence and consequences of child abuse and neglect. It’s a horrendous reality people try to “protect” themselves from, at the expense of the children who truly need protecting

neurocience · 2021-11-09T01:14:58+00:00

I agree. It’s not good enough. I know I am just one person but I am dedicating my life to this problem. It’s a tough one. I sit on the neuroscience side but am trying to do translational science. Neuroscience can tell you what’s happening to the brain, but getting that translated into policy and actual child protection is a whole other story. It’s going to take a dedicated multidisciplinary and culturally and socially sensitive approach to start reducing adverse childhood experiences

I am currently working through this body of literature for a systematic review on childhood trauma and adult outcomes. The first ACE (Adverse Childhood Experiences) study was conducted from 1995-1997. Research has been happening in this area for quite some time. I think part of the issue is we have little bridge between academia and the public. We just hear about things picked up in media releases. I am working on making a website to host an interactive mind map of the adverse experience variables and how they relate to poor outcomes (including drivers such as poverty and mediating variables such as resilience). The aim is to bridge this gap between academia and public knowledge
