Intrusive images: answer?
May. 25th, 2017 10:15 amSo, a few weeks ago, I posted about my frustration with intrusive images. justalurkr.dreamwidth.org/384576.html
The answer is: ask a licensed professional counselor!
1. Visualize a large stop sign over the image.
2. When you see the image, notice which direction you're looking & look somewhere else in your field of vision. (May also be helpful for intrusive thoughts.)
3. Quit looking at grotesque shit on the internet. (Ok maybe not said in so many words, but heavily implied. :D )

A Short Whine
May. 2nd, 2017 09:39 amSo, I'm having the kind of eye surgery that means I need to stay face down for up to three weeks afterward, and I'm having it tomorrow.
Naturally, the whole world is about to party. Guardians of the Galaxy, Volume 2, opens two days later, and the Georgia Aquarium is having a Cinco de Mayo celebration this weekend.
Y'all have fun out there!

I get to have more eye surgery!
Apr. 25th, 2017 07:03 pmMy macula is puckering, I kid you not.
There will be anesthesia and a bubble and a period of time spent face down while my repaved macula heals.
Now I'm sort of glad teaching school and temp work didn't work out as planned, because this is going to be a good month of fussing.
Protip: if letters are squirming around each other on the page or screen, that MIGHT be your brain trying to fill a hole in your visual input. Get that checked out!

I am appalled and petrified
Apr. 23rd, 2017 12:00 pmTo avoid housework, I've been googling nonsense most of the morning. DON'T JUDGE ME.
You that auto-complete thing Google does? Where as you type "why isn't the USA spending on infrastructure?" it pops up frequent searches as you laboriously one-finger type into your tablet?
"Why isn't the USA..." auto-completed with "...in the Bible?"
Mind. BLOWN.
