  • Hey Guest,

    As you know, censorship around the world has been ramping up at an alarming pace. The UK and OFCOM has singled out this community and have been focusing its censorship efforts here. It takes a good amount of resources to maintain the infrastructure for our community and to resist this censorship. We would appreciate any and all donations.

We understand and express through language.

The more we understand, the more we control.
The more we control, the best decision we can make.

Share useful definitions/terms/phrases that helped your journey until now. Maybe it could help someone.

Here's mine:

Interoception
(from Lisa Feldman): our shaping innate perspective that is also our whole world.

Physioneurosis
(from Bessel van der Kolk): The body keeps the score. Traumas get saved in form of muscular reactions.

Estrangement
: the act of going no-contact with a toxic family; having a estranged family;

Children of narcs
(from Lindsay Gibson): chronically neglected children. Children that never learned to take care of themselves; adhd; dyslexia; dyscalculia; bad relationship with food; with exercise; sleep; self-steem. Parents never taught them to put themselves in first place.

Internalizer x Externalizer
: some people holds emotion till they explode (death); some people lash out on others.

Night sleep x Day sleep (from Marc Weiss): to the body, there's 2 different types of sleep, nonexchangeable and incommunicable.

Shame Web
(from brene brown): a collective of people that chronically shames you.

Healing Fantasy
: that fleeting feeling that someone will suddenly see things by your perspective and save you. (spoiler: it never happens)

I really love those definitions/terms/phrases that you gave so thank you for that.

There is a Latin expression that I've always liked, which is Carpe Diem (Seize the Day). And it serves to express the idea that we should enjoy life while we can, i.e., enjoy yourself while you've the chance.
