Your Brain and Stress | Compilation

1. My brain works differently, so I guess that can cause my boss's stress. She once questioned me for putting black linens on the tables for the wedding reception instead of white, the correct/usual color (but in my defense, we usually put on black linens for any event, and I don't even generally set the reception linens). Oh, and she was upset I had signed up for a one-person shift, because she didn't think I could manage alone. I'll admit, I am much better with a helping hand and guide, but come on, that's no excuse for being insensitive. One of our student leader's responsibilities is organizing who works which shifts on the schedule, and my boss scolded him for not noticing I had signed up a coffee service. When she asked him if she thought I could do the shift, I answered for him with a firm "yes," because I felt belittled by her. She said she didn't think so, was all "I've told you not to sign up for shifts by yourself, I've been very clear about that, I don't know how much clearer I can get for you to listen" (something like, that, so I'm not perfectly quoting her), and she told me I need someone there to give me instructions and guide me.

   You know, I'm in constant fear of her, and always avoid her at work. I'm starting to hope one day, this stress gets to my brain and raises my high blood pressure around her. I would love it if a doctor told her I had to avoid her for medical reasons to restore me.

2. When we're in flow lol

4. to note,,, i suffer from complex ptsd, my sleep cycle is around 3 to 5 hours and feels broken and i dont feel tired when i wake up or when go to sleep, i just fall asleep after laying down for hours and i normally dont dream but once in a while i have a vivid dream that impact me to wake up and for a short but abit longer than usual time i know what i feel then it gets messy, i have trouble with knowing what i feel and my feelings change alot and rather qiuckly, like from sad to mad to happy to emptyness to disbelief to feel fear to feeling near death experience(cause i had almost died many times either by accidents or be threaden to death), i just dont know what i feel and sometimes it just shuts down and my thoughts its running wild,, i am more aware after learning about ptsd and trying to learn more but the more i try to learn the more severe intrusive thoughts from the past that stops the leaning process for a short time but i keep trying to ignore the intrusive thoughts and trying to keep learning, so far it have been helpfull to understand myself better but it is too messy to sort out, i usually read about the feelings at the moment my thoughts that are intrusive if i caught it or it shows more than other intrusive thoughtsthen i read about or see in youtube why and how to tread it wich helps sometimes but i had too many trauma experiences from childhood to adulthood, neglect from father who often beat me and my mom till i was around 17 years old, to being chased by bullies only to get beaten by them from school and if i show up with brushes or marks from the beating then my dad would beat me and his cause was he said it would make me stronger my father was manipulative at its worst, when he help me with homework he called me out that i am stupid and proceed to be more and more agressive till either he leaves me or beat me if i couldnt figure out what the task was about and he was also alcoholic, and in school i got to get bullied till i broke down wich happened alot and many of the teachers allways ignores what was happening till i was around 13 where i became agressive towards those buillies and they stopped, also happened at adulthood at workplaces due to many but not all Danish people have tendens to be agressive or try to be dominant or tread people from Greenland like dogs on a work places and i had to shift my workplace only to experience that kind of people again and again and again and sometimes if i call for a interview they say yes we need people and then i show up only to experience the sadness from their eyes and getting told they dont need any workers anyway, that cause of feeling negleted by the boss and the coworkers to have seen someone getting beat to their ends to experience near death too many times, those thoughts keeps changing and i have no control over them and making me confused at times, i am all aware around me and myself but its not easy, well ill keep trying hard to learn how to control my feelings so i can start my treadment, its like being in two places at the same time and sometimes multiple places at once wich is bad for me and i mean VERY BAD but note that it comes in waves.

5. Huh. There’s a lucid dreaming technique involving deliberately causing your brain to up the intensity of your REM sleep by trying to wake up in the middle of your usual sleep times frequently. Another one, which I personally used to do frequently, is to imagine something you would like to dream about. But my stress levels have been so high for so long I couldn’t even dream at all for ages because I couldn’t sleep for longer than an hour at any time through 2020. And now I’m finally dreaming again. I just can’t remember it and have lost my former tendency to always recognize the fact of dreaming while it’s happening.

6. Psychologically is still such garbage. I can't believe they use the phrase "sensation seeking". It's obviously designed to have a negative connotation like the phrase "drug seeking" that is used in hospitals. They also use the term "self control" in the same frame. This is simply witch hunting in 2022 but instead of witches, people are hunting specific people that don't fit the societal norm. Guess what, the societal norm changes all the time. Who are we hunting. Personal note for those who want to express their mental differences… don't do it. You will lose your insurance, struggle until you realize you need to conform, and be seen as an outcast. We are NOT inclusive, though we say we are. We have a long way to go on this mental health thing. For the time being, don't expose yourself. Just fake it because most people are dumb.

7. Flow sounds almost like a meditative state. I used something like flow to write my finals papers. When allowed I didn't do rough drafts, I waited until the night before, doing some research but otherwise keeping it on the back burner. Then I'd sit down and use the adrenaline from being short of time to just . . . let it out. It's like making a necklace, words and ideas are like beads on a string. You put them together and they form a whole that's so much more than the individual components. Or like I imagine riding a wave feels. You're just going with it, seeing where it leads as you type. Then when it's done you just have to make sure to check for spelling or grammar mistakes, make sure the bibliography is good, and make sure you cited everything properly. But even then it's less like the drudgery it would usually be and more like you're polishing a work of art you just made.

8. I'm really risk averse, basically the only risk I'm usually willing to take is trying a new food. Actually, I make it a point to try every new flavor of M&M and Kit Kat they make. Also, when the lottery jackpot hits like 300 million or higher I sometimes buy a few tickets. Sometimes I don't have extra money or don't realize it's that high until too late, so it's only a couple times a year to once every few years.
   As for dreams- my mother never remembers hers. I have no idea why. My dreams tend to be WILD. Like last night I dreamed about a weird town where a bunch of criminals got kicked out and went to another town NE of the first, but a guy in a beaver suit also got kicked out although he was harmless. For some reason I ended up focusing on beaver-guy as he floated down a river that was east of the second town and flowed south to a sea or ocean in his suit. He then swam along the coast until he ended up back in the original town.

9. This was very helpful Roy Lafayette

10. Gamers and monks are known to be able to get into flow state more easily than normal people

11. Ignored alot of evidence about ndes like when patients come back and tell the doctors what they did and said in a different room of the hospital while dead. Also they all report the feeling of love times 10,000 and actual wisdom why would the brain save up that ability of reaction but not use it for other survival or reproductive reasons?

12. My anxiety has always been high throughout my entire life. My girlfriend puts two pillows between us when we go to sleep bc my dreams are so violent. I remember them so vividly that I wake up thinking I'm gonna have a black eye or cut somewhere. I workout intensely everyday to help my anxiety levels, but I can totally relate to scary vivid dreams.

13. A vest over a graphic tee shirt is certainly an interesting choice. . .

14. I got great vivid dreams of my family, cousins, and friends & old friends and I suddenly wake up by ugly reality.

17. Last near death I had I got robbed, got knocked out and woke up upsidedown

18. This is stressing me out.

19. My daughter and I are in equine therapy. The picture of the woman and horse snuggling is so right. That seems to be when my healing occurs the most.

20. Hi i agree sometimes u have 2 take a risk.u maynot know the out come but u are aware u have stuied the out come like all b that be came great inventers and speakers. The out come is the result. Good or bad they is always a relast personied

21. It is not a scientific thing it is a spiritual experience and yes we do have near that experience and we do see people on the other side. Just because scientists can't make sense of these experiences they have to somehow find a psychological or something to make it fit.

22. Thank you guys for the work that you do

23. Are there any studies about "flow" and videogames? I think that would be cool and interesting 💜

24. I have questions. Is that description of near death experiences because that's how someone described it and people just adopted that description? And were ancient near death experiences described in the same manner? And my near death experience was that there was nothing and then suddenly I was back, no white light, tunnel or angels singing from above. Also how did those who dislike animals react to that pet therapy? Did they also have a positive outcome?

25. My brain is a constant stress

26. Who knows where to get her orca shirt?

27. Biggest assumption of the video: animals don't judge you. Us. Me. My pets judge me.

28. I had a strange dream last week. I dreamt that I was going to a "semi-formal" dinner. I was dressed in a nice skirt, blouse, and coordinating jacket with stylish black heels. I decided that I needed some lipstick, so I told my friends that I'd catch up to them at the dinner in a few minutes. Instead of lipstick, I changed into an extremely poofy floor length (and completely inappropriate) white ball gown. When I went to the venue, it was completely empty and set up for an event the next day. I shook my head and went to a different venue. When I got there, everyone was VERY casual and they were seated and being served chips and salsa. In my ball gown, I stood out like a sore thumb. At that point, I looked at my invitation and realized that it didn't have the address on it and I had now missed the dinner completely. I woke up shaking my head at the incongruity of it all and wondering where on earth I would have gotten a white ball gown and what possessed me to wear it.
