i tried to make the title as vauge as possible to prevent spoilers lol but anyways i dont get the whole "chloe had to die to stop the storm" thing. i was just thinking about it and i feel like it doesn't make sense, at the beginning of the game max is having her first vision of the storm way before she saves chloe in the bathroom so how could saving chloe have caused the storm? like why would max have a vision of something she caused BEFORE she did the thing that caused it??? i feel like the storm realistically would have happened either way but if im missing something someone please lmk cause im actually confused right now.

also side question, if the butterfly in the bathroom gave max her powers how did she have the visions before she went to the bathroom? are the visions a seperate thing from her powers or did the butterfly not give her the powers?

Okay so i’m 13F and ive been dealing with with horrible social anxiety/regular anxiety and probably depression for years, i feel anxious 24/7 im definitely a harm to myself if ykwim and i over think a LOT (that’s just my issues simplified btw i don’t wanna make this super long). I’ve gotten to the point where i definitely think i need to talk to someone but the thing is i don’t know how to tell my parents this, a few years ago my older brother was dealing with social anxiety and depression and they got him a therapist i was like 9 years old and so i thought this was a good opportunity to tell my parents that i’ve also been dealing with stuff but when i tried this my mom told me to stop telling her about my mental health because it “worried” her and that i was just making things up to copy my brother. I stopped talking about my feelings and they’ve only gotten worse, im miserable every day and i want to tell them and try to get help but im scared that they’ll just dismiss me again, also when my older brother was getting therapy (it only lasted a short time because my dad didn’t like the idea of a therapist knowing our business) my other brothers made fun of him so im worried they’ll do the same to me. Im also not great at expressing my emotions so im also just scared in general about telling my parents, if i do get a therapist how do i even talk to them?? I get so anxious to the point i feel like im gonna have a panic attack when i have to talk to strangers what’s gonna happen if i have to talk to one about my feelings, plus my dad isn’t a fan of our personal business being out there so what would i even tell the therapist since a lot of my issues are caused by my parents. Im also scared because like what if the therapist thinks the crap i’m anxious about is stupid?? A lot of the stuff that bothers me is super embarrassing also.

I just got into an argument with someone about this and i’m wondering if i’m actually wrong, basically i think neo pronouns are totally okay and there’s nothing wrong with them and people should be able to express themselves however they want/need to and i think it’s transphobia to think otherwise. This guy i argued with (he’s a trans man which makes it even crazier imo) says that he thinks they’re stupid and unnecessary and they make the lgbtq community look ridiculous and that people shouldn’t use them, he also says it’s not transphobia because neo pronoun users aren’t trans (apparently he thinks you’re not trans unless your ftm or mtf), i gave home the definition of trans and he just told me to stfu so now i’m asking if im wrong and it isn’t transphobia? If im wrong then my bad but i assumed it was because trans is when your birth sex doesn’t match your gender identity so if someone uses neopronouns then they obviously don’t feel like their biological sex therefore trans right?

EDIT: in the title i meant “hate” and “think” i was typing too fast lol

i have natural 4c hair but it gets relaxed and i’ve notice that the right side is shorter than the left, i considered shrinkage but i realized even after a fresh relaxer without any new growth it’s still shorter. Could there be any reason for this?

Okay so i was reading in the dreams subreddit because i find things like that super interesting and i was reading about weird dreams and i had a thought what if those dreams were you just going to alternate realites in your sleep? I mean think about it, sleep methods are a thing and anyone can shift without even trying so i feel like it makes some sense, plus scientists arent 100% sure what dreams are/why we dream like they have theories but its still technically a mystery. I think it would also explain why sometimes we dont dream, i dunno maybe its dumb but its a theory of mine and i feel like it makes sense like there are also lucid dreams which i think makes this feel even more true because why would you be able to control things if you weren't actually there? I'll do more research and i might make an updated more in depth maybe longer post on it better explaining what i think but these are just my current thoughts that i wanted to share because i'd like to hear what other people think, so comment and let me know what u think about it!

(i wrote this 16ish days ago)

okay so im not sure if this was a shift so feel free to let me know if it wasn't, basically i was laying on my couch to take a nap and i was SUPER duper sleepy. i was trying to shift the other night but it wasn't successful so i decided why not try again, i put on a wake up in your dr subliminal and i closed my eyes and started saying a few affirmmations in my head. after only a few mins of affirmming i started to feel super relaxed, i heard a voice in my head but it wasn't my voice it was a woman saying "you are in your dr" and then i started to picture in my head some kind of galaxy and a lot of different flashing images. and once they stopped i actually felt my surrondings change like i was on a bed instead of a couch and my parents who were in the living room with me were no longer there also i felt like i had gotten taller, (i scripted that in my dr i wake up in bed with my dr partner waking me up and i also scripted that i was 5'7ish) i had my eyes closed and i didnt open them but i FELT like genuinely felt my dr partner touching my arm like she was just carressing it but she didnt talk like i scripted and got scared and i guess it pulled me out??? im not sure if this was a dream but i dont think it was because 1. i remember details which i never do when i dream and 2. i actually felt her touch me and usually i never feel anything in dreams. my brain is trying to convince me it was a dream but i just dont know like im not sure, im gonna try to fully shift again tonight.

(i posted this on another sub but didn’t get any responses yet and im planning on shifting tonight so i need some tips!!)

okay so last night i tried the method but i ended up just going straight to sleep, i listened to a binaural beat audio so i could try and focus on that to not fully fall asleep but it didn’t work. i also tried counting but that also didn’t work, so are there any other ways i could not fall asleep? also does everyone have hypnagogia or is it only something some people have because i also noticed that i never got the hallucinations that signal im in that state, alsooo what do i do when i do get into that state to shift? i heard that you could visualize but im not really good at that.

so like multiple times everyday all day i’ll be doing something like for example watching a youtube video, and i’ll start zoning out and then i’ll start thinking about something bad going on in my life currently and i’ll start to spiral and think about the issue getting worse and then the thoughts get progressively worse, and then i’ll start to panic and then i start having suicidal thoughts. ill start thinking like “maybe i should just end it before it ends up this bad” but then i start imagining scenarios of the attempt failing and having to face my parents and them being mad at me and, my siblings making fun of me for attempting something like that (they’re definitely the type to do that they don’t gaf abt me) and then it scares me out of doing it because i don’t want it to fail but then ill start feeling trapped in my horrible life and i start to cry and almost have a panic attack because i feel like there’s no escape and like ill forever suffer. is there anything i could do to stop it?

i’m making a life is strange script for post reunion and i’m at the face claim making part, i can’t draw, i don’t have any money to commission someone, i don’t wanna use ai and i have no idea how else i would make it. i don’t want to just use a pic off pinterest i want it to look like it could be from the game so i can imagine it better if ykwim, i know i don’t need a script or face claim but i like to have both because im not good at visualizing or describing what i want so i need a photo or whatever to look at before i shift, it’d be great if i could get some advice thanks!

so tonight i’m gonna go into void state to manifest, maybe even shift but i was wondering how i do that? i’ve been reading up and i read that since in the void state you’re pure consciousness you are outside of your physical body you aren’t able to speak out loud, would i be able to think my affirmations or would i have to do it a different way?

also if i could get some good affirmations for entering the state that’d be great (and if there are any i should use in the state that’d would be great too!)
