shoutout to people who don't speak in complete monotone but still have a smaller range of emotional expression than others.
shoutout to people who often get misinterpreted because they express a lot of different emotions in very similar ways.
shoutout to people who have the "wrong" reaction to a situation (e.g. laughing when bad things happen) and get treated worse for it.
shoutout to people who have exaggerated emotional expression and gets seen as overdramatic or manipulative.
shoutout to people who struggle to express their emotions in the "right way".

Do you guys even know how hot woman House is? In any genderbent version of him she's so attractive it actually makes me cry. Who let her be this beautiful. Wilson is always beautiful but LOOK AT HOUSE. LOOK AT HER.

Stupid ass dog #i love her
You guys ever meet someone and you just know they've grown up surrounded by privilege?
I was talking to this one guy a few years back and he was talking about getting top surgery (this was in high school btw) and yk that shit costs THOUSANDS. So I also brought up how, on the same medical topic, I got st John's wort to help out with my depression and this motherfucker asks why I don't get SSRIs like a regular person. Kill yourself??? Not my fault my parents are against medicine? And you're one of the people that KNOWS I didn't have healthcare insurance. Im not a "normal person" because im not paying thousands of money from up my ass to afford an antidepressant that might make me more likely to OD instead of a natural herb that works just as well for my depression? Sorry you're living room is twice the size larger than my entire house floor (this is genuinely true btw) but its not my fault that im not allowed to get an expensive medication, but hey, at least you're getting FUCKING TOP SURGERY AT 15. ISN'T THAT FUCKING SWELL YOU CENTERIST ASSHOLE. Same guy started turning misogynistic after a year on testosterone btw. Bitch you used to be a woman (and don't give me that "he was never a woman" shit, because he was still societally treated as one so used to live the life as one).
Kinning an asshole character that uses sarcasm means that no one looks deep into the character and just assumes you relate to the sarcasm and assholeness.
Like yeah let's just look over all of Houses depression/mental side, socially withdrawn behaviour, neediness with Wilson and not being able to be attached to anyone else, emotionally withdrawn behaviour with his lovers, uncomfort with change, deep need for control, self destructive and calculaying impulses, dislike over authority, and lack of care with mostly anyone yet still takes care of them (mind you, it is his job. His job is caring for people, and no matter what way he does, they get healed. Keep in mind hoe upset House gets when his patent dies, and its because he views it as hes failed). I can keep going on. From every emotional flow to reason to trait to reaction to mental flow, especially the internal flows, I understand him. But no, now people think im saying I relate to him because im also a crippled (leg too, isn't that a coincidence) lower empathy guy that's into medicine.
Same with Jeff Winger, and i know I've talked about this before, but from his control over what he eats to his need to be important and relevant to others (cough cough mafia chicken episode) to him purposefully hurting himself so others could care to putting on a mask of apathy and ESPECIALLY the part in basic sandwich where he had to open the door (that was the main part where the kinship began, also it could have been the episode after that), i feel every flow internally of him. But no, im just a charismatic guy that needs control and likes talking and sleeping around (3/4 are correct, i unfortunately am not as whorish as Jeff and am quite modest sexually).
I can talk on and on about this but I did just wake up and pull this from my ass so id rather eat breakfast.
being empathetic and being kind are two different things
you can have high empathy and still be a bad person
you can have no empathy and still be a good person
a lack of empathy should not be painted as wrong or evil
You can do good things and be kind and recognise when others need help and help them without feeling empathy btw. It helps to have empathy because it gives you more motive, but its not necessarily. Doing good ≠ being empathetic. Ive met people with large amounts of empathy that are complete assholes and selfish as fuck. Ive met, and am, a person with a lower amount of empathy that seeks to help others because others won't. Lacking empathy ≠ being sadistic btw. Just because I don't feel others emotions doesn't mean I like seeing them in pain. That's very important. "Empaths" don't do shit, they just feel your emotions and carry on.
who up hating pop psychology
take a break while watching this little bunny cross your dash
the moment my disorder isn't being triggered: wait... do you feel that? so calm... i think... it's gone forever? yes! i'm cured! and it's for real this time, i'm sure of it!
I spent a few months believing the doctors lied to me to make me feel better and it was all placebo effect and then BAM the positive symptoms were back and its not just residual schizophrenia anymore
I missed the hallucinations lowkey because they're pretty chill and harmless
It's like meeting an old friend again
I'm back. After finishing two shows, ODing twice, one breakup, finishing over 300 levels on a crossword game, and a lot of change- i am back.
Ive been into typology lately and I don't see many things for my type (1, possibly sx/sp 1) so I'll share my personal experience with it.
Childhood: I was raised strictly Christian (and in a country focused on structure) so I have been programmed to obey and serve™ and on how to be proper. I did seem to take it a bit deeper than others though, and I saw faults in them quickly. In worship songs they focused on the wrong things and so I stopped listening to worship music because it was wrong. The bible mentioned wealth we will gain in heaven and I began hating the translation because you shouldn't need a reason to follow god. Stuff like this. I would strictly follow every command and would break down whenever I was seen as "dirty and wrong". Being improper, ignorant, and imcompetent meant you were worthless and dirty, I have continuously held that notion since childhood and both resent and pity those that don't. In my kid eyes, they will accomplish nothing and are worthless for not being proper. They do not deserve life.
I remember a specific event when I was 10. I remember doing an act of service for god (i forgot what it was) and after my mum told me to ask him for a reward. How utterly appaled i felt at the fact that you would have to do something for a reward. I felt an intense amount of shame for being someone assosiated with others similar to that, and I rejected and made sure I will never do something like that and make sure others don't.
Current: I can be very preachy about certain topics, as I was when I was a kid, but I am no longer Christian. Due to finding continuous flaws in others and their behaviour, compared to my cleanliness, I have become apathetic towards others and misanthropic. I recognise that I am the one that has to help them, they won't be able to help themselves if they don't know, and its important that I understand and know that to truly be right. Ignorance is wrong. I have made myself purposefully wrong to make sure I don't become a selfish, ego ridden ass that turns blindly towards others needs. I have to understand what is and isn't my place, and it will never always be about me, and that I remain right in the way I am. I find flaws in others and make sure I am not like that, and if I am that I don't become a hypocrite, it was never my place to judge.
There is a constant changing in what I view as right, but most of it is centred around selflessness, understanding, and competency.
A lot of this shows in different ways.
Selflessness: no matter what I think of myself, I am a human like everyone else and I am destined to help. I have actually had a breakdown revolving around intense emotions when I did not follow this. Here is a little peice of it (it was multiple, multiple pages).
"You are not who you are, you are a better specimen and being than you let on. What are you so scared of? That people will make you out to be good and rely on you? That they will leave you for being good? That being good will leave you vulnerable and feeling? You are meant to feel. You are the world's punching bag that will keep giving. You are the piñata. You are the world's piñata and you will keep being it and enjoy it. It takes more strength to be weaker because others gain more and that is what is meant to happen."
Whatever that means.
Understanding: it is fundamental that I understand everything I can. You can not act right or wrong if you do not understand. This applies to others lives, myself, human behaviour, and the likes. You can't expect others to act perfect if they have not been exposed to it, so you teach them. You can't expect them to, because they are human and will make mistake. You have to ne considerate when they fail. You have to know that it isn't always your place to reform them and they are doing fine on their own if they can sustain themself. This is important because one reason I feel so much hatred towards certain churches is they are meant to lead people towards the right path, and the people inside are exposed, and they claim to be righteous and still aren't.
Competence: its plain and simple, you won't be able to achieve anything if you can't do it. You have to be competent in whatever you do, and if you don't its because you're not worthy. If there is someone drowning, and you can't swim, you have failed them by not swimming. They have failed themself for not being able to swim and tossing themself into the pool. As much understanding will help you through this empathetically, the facts are that everyone will fail if they are incompetent and it is up to you to make sure they can make it through life.
That has been my life as a type 1.
People love characters with low / no empathy or are apathetic about everything until they actually meet someone like that. Suddenly the person in question is horrible and abusive.
On a specific mention to my ex, he once claimed that "I probably love you as much as I do because you remind me of my favourite character", and he told me he loved narcissistic characters and liked me because I'm narcissistic. When he was breaking up with me this was one of the things he conplained about, as well as being emotionally closed off and the "only emotions you show being violence and aggresion", despite him telling me that's what he liked. He has now marked me as an abuser (both physically and mentally) despite me doing neither. I have had this happen with multiple exes. They love you for your traits and praise you until they get fed up, blame you, and mark you as salt vinegar and everything sinister.
