This Too Shall Pass
Nothing stays the same and nothing lasts forever in the physical world. Life itself is a cyclical process, an ongoing progression of changes we refer to as evolution. Time marches on and space is infinite so everything is constantly shifting, both in spatial position and in linear time, from moment to moment. Everything is in perpetual motion, existing as energy on a quantum level.

Don't stop dreaming because of Nightmares. 'All about Nightmares'
Did you suddenly wake up in the middle of the night? Woke up in the wake of a nightmare? A nightmare that is much more miserable than reality, haunting you too? When everyone around is asleep in peace, you are looking for shelter near a glass of water with your body soaked with sweat. After a while, you may fall asleep again, but the nightmare may not have ended so easily, the remnants remain the next morning.

10 Things I Want To Tell My Young Undiagnosed Autistic Self
Young, confused about social norms, even naïve — this holds true for many autistic people. You know that you are somehow different. There is some part of you that feels confused when interacting with others. They sense it, too. Some will laugh and mock you about it. It hurts a lot, especially when you are a child. There are some lessons that you learn the hard way as you proceed into adulthood, though we often learn them after years of struggle and lots of undeserved blame towards ourselves.

Those who study or practice psychology and apply it in real life are called psychologists. One of the different types of work of these psychologists is child psychology. Child psychologists work with child psychology - such as talking to school-going children about their minds and daily life, or experimenting with how to get some children with certain mental development problems to move on with normal life. Audit and talk to their parents.

I’m Autistic, But I Don’t Have Meltdowns When Routines Change
“Daily routines” — an AI-generated artwork I prepared in starryai. One of the typical traits people associate with autism is the need for repetition and routines. For many of us autistic people, routines are very important. A change in plans can wreak havoc and bring a meltdown. In some cases, I can get frustrated if something was supposed to happen but failed. But anybody else does, too, every now and then. I am fine if plans change. I do not mind if half of the groceries on my shopping list are out of stock. I will come up with something else to cook for dinner. A friend could cancel their arrival at the last moment… well, maybe that is a bit disappointing, but going to a place other than initially agreed upon is perfectly fine.

My Hallucinations...
So I was recently asked this question and the short answer is: yes. But the truth is much longer than that, so I am writing it down. *smile* Please note, these are only my personal experiences with seeing other "people" who aren't really there - not everyone's.

Emetophobia
Emetophobia: Extreme fear of vomiting I wouldn't wish this phobia on anyone. At a young age I developed a phobia of throwing up. As a young kid, you can find it to be a pretty common thing that kids do. I can't remember a traumatic experience that I might have had when I was younger that would have caused this, all I know is that it drastically changed my life.

Sometimes I feel like a fish...
When I had my 20 gallon aquarium in my home years ago, I would sit and watch the fish swim back and forth for hours at a time. I loved the sound of the moving water through the filter, watching them gracefully glide through the water, and even the distinct smell of fishiness was relaxing to me. One day that all changed though as I contemplated my life. I mean, I still love watching the fish swim back and forth, but I can't help make comparisons to how I feel some days...
