  1. Me too! I’m sure my father has autism, but he was not diagnosed as it wasn’t a thing back in his day.
  2. Some of the best wars have happened on this forum, if you’ve been paying attention
  3. I don’t suggest it either, because it’s extremely complex and dependent on the dynamics of the parties involved. It will happen organically.
  4. The end goal is for both sides to come out as the winner. Now that’s an almost impossible feat to accomplish.
  5. I recently joined a group for neurodiverse young adults. I’m neurodiverse, and for a very long time I’ve just been surrounding myself with neurotypical people. Surrounding myself with others who actually think differently like I do has been a game changer. (A quick overview of what neurodiversity is)
  6. Sometimes that process doesn’t look pretty or functional, however (as I mentioned below). Sometimes you have to go through hell, but don’t stay there!
  7. I went to war with my father a few months ago. We both came out stronger and healthier in our relationship after the dust has been settled. If you knew how much suffering we both had to go through, you would never want to even go there. I don’t want to minimize this point. Are you brave enough to go into war, with the intention of not dominating another, but to integrate them towards higher Love?
  8. Science can never capture or grasp Infinity. But its understanding of itself can certainly evolve and expand.
  9. @UnbornTao Haha, I just saw that video 30 mins ago.
  10. I disagree that ego is a problem. It is, however, a serious problem to be pushing away your personal problems and to avoid facing fear. Convincing yourself that ego is a problem is a great recipe for avoiding actual spiritual and personal work.
  11. Do it. I’m going on a date with a phenomenal artist tonight. I have a much greater appreciation for art because of her. I’m sure you will inspire someone as well if you put your all into it!
  12. The problem with abuse is you can be stuck in it without even realizing that you’re in an abuse cycle. You may cope with it via religion, family, friends… basically distracting yourself from the abuse. Or not, as those systems can be core to the abuse. I used to go to a religious school that had a few abusive teachers; I had a few family members and friends who were bullies. A few may not seem like a big deal, but even one abuser can make a huge dent in your life.
  13. Lmfao. Wazaa!!!!
  14. @vibv Ooo, music! Try speaking to @ivankiss about it, you guys may be able to come up with something great. If I recall correctly, he’s into making metal and wanted to share his music as well.
  15. @vibv It’s fine to do psychedelics with others in the beginning stages, but if you want to go deeper then you’re going to have to drop that fantasy that you’re proposing.
  16. I would rather have complete autonomy over what I drink and how I drink it, rather than drink Kool-Aid out of blind faith because some supposed higher authority told me it’s the right thing to do. Group-think is not cool; it’ll convert you into a fool.
  17. Those people are definitely not worth your time and attention. Don’t give them an ounce of validation, because they themselves have not gone through what you’re going through. They’re projecting judgements only based on their limited life experiences. You’re not crazy or a loser. And this is not some pet theory of mine or trying to reassure you. I just happen to understand and have direct experience of what you’re going through.
  18. Alcohol also has a bunch of side effects, yet billions of people consume it anyway.
  19. You underestimate dreams because you have not explored outside of your own little dream.
  20. That won’t be necessary if you’re Awake. Or realize this is all an Infinite Dream.
