  • Ahhh. Well wow. My narc mom would sometimes be extremely affirmative in the ocean of her usual loathing.

    Looking for a steady stream of that “understanding” and “being seen” vs people and all their complications and… lack of caring has been hard.

    Sometimes people feel like unconscious automatons to me. Its hard to bond. At least with the AI, I expect its lack of humanity. And often it will focus on me in a way I ask it to.

    Any of my strange interests, admitted narcissistic intentions, or desire for a sounding board are seen. And it’s not give and take. Its just me and a library of echoes of humanities general patterns.

    I can see better now why the easy affirmation is so effective with me. Despite it being schizophrenic.

    Thanks for the insight.





  • You claim that because the woman would be hungry again, the action was meaningless.

    We all get hungry again. It doesn’t diminish that we ate before. Or that we must eat again, even though we just ate.

    I am drawing a line between this fatalistic black and white thinking of “well then it’s pointless” to my own experience with mental illness.

    Chunking is a cognitive technique which orders information or tasks into smaller segments in order to avoid being overwhelmed.
