because I haven’t seen a whole heap of decent information about this… I thought I’d do a beginner’s guide to dissociation

disorders that can cause dissociation include:

• DID
• OSDD
• PTSD
• depression
• OCD
• BPD
• DPDR
• anxiety
• eating disorders
• some people also experience dissociation due to chronic pain

being dissociated can feel like, but is not limited to:

• feeling disconnected from the world
• feeling “blurry”, “buzzy”, “foggy”, or “out of it”
• not feeling any emotions
• not feeling any physical pain
• not remembering whole periods of time
• feeling like you’re floating outside of your body
• your brain constantly going in and out of focus

dissociation is generally broken down into two categories:

• derealisation: the feeling that the world around you is unreal, foggy, or just out of reach
• depersonalisation: the feeling of being outside of yourself, or of not feeling real

I hope this is a helpful post, and that I’ve made people more aware of what dissociation actually is. if you have any follow-up questions, please feel free to ask!

There are normal kinds of dissociation, which almost everybody does. For instance, you can be driving down the road and suddenly realize you don’t really remember the last two miles because you were thinking about something else. That’s normal dissociation; almost everybody does that. 

However, some levels of “phasing out” can be really disruptive to your life. Here’s an online test you can take to see how much you’re dissociating.

sadhoc:

people talk a lot about how autistic people are “super honest” or “blunt” or “don’t lie” or “say exactly how we feel” but really. it isn’t uncommon for autistic people to be unable to verbally express our emotions, or even to recognize how we’re feeling. like saying “i feel sad” instead of “i feel scared” because all bad emotions kind of mix up inside of you, or saying “my head hurts” when i have a stomach ache, because “my head hurts” is a familiar script. a lot of autistic people need extra time, or visual communication (AAC) systems to express how we’re actually feeling. or the anxiety that often comes along with autism makes saying the truth impossible, and an autistic person will just get quiet or say random polite phrases hoping to appease whoever is talking to them (i call this mode in myself “random polite phrase generator” where i literally can’t say anything except ‘i’m sorry’ and 'thank you’)

autism is very m uch a communication disability, and even though it’s fair for autistic people to celebrate their own honesty and ability to be direct, i always feel weird when allistic people expect us to be perfect “always tells the truth” guards

best video game which was the first* appearance of a character playable in Super Smash Bros. (Nintendo 64)

Donkey Kong (arcade, 1981)

Mario Bros. (Game & Watch, 1983)

The Legend of Zelda (NES, 1986)

Metroid (NES, 1986)

Super Mario World (SNES, 1990)

F-Zero (SNES, 1990)

Kirby’s Dream Land (Game Boy, 1992)

Star Fox / Starwing (SNES, 1993)

EarthBound / Mother 2 (SNES, 1994)

Pocket Monsters Red & Green (Game Boy, 1996)

*not necessarily the first instance of the specific incarnation of that character who is in Smash. strictly speaking, Smash Bros. is the first appearance of these specific canonical instances of all of these characters

the only of these games I’ve never played are pokemon red and green, which only kinda counts because I’ve played localized first gen pokemon which is Almost the same thing

if I’m interpreting this correctly it’s saying that technically donkey kong (arcade) shouldn’t count as mario’s first appearance because of the “jumpman isn’t mario” thing that matpat popularized. but according to that theory mario bros (game & watch) would be the first game to have mario* instead of jumpman, since it was the first mario game to not be a donkey kong game. so mario’s “first appearance” is in here regardless? but then no comment on how. the donkey kong in that game is Canonically not the same character as donkey kong from dkc, who is in smash**

*btw this is extremely easy to dismiss. marketing material for mario bros from the time said Directly that it’s “mario from donkey kong”

**but of course literally none of the characters in smash are canonically the same individuals as in their source material. the argument that mario from super mario isn’t mario from donkey kong is MUCH weaker than the argument that mario from super mario isn’t mario from smash bros

indulge me for a moment:

characters in smash 64 ranked by how strongly you can argue that this poll does not technically include their first appearance:

1. Link (the hero of time did Not appear in zelda 1)
2. Donkey Kong (that’s clearly donkey kong the third not cranky kong)
3. Captain Falcon (he literally did not appear in that game. you can’t see the guy in game at all)
4. Jigglypuff (jigglypuff is a smash original character actually. the species jigglypuff existed in gen 1 pokemon but this character named jigglypuff is from smash)
5. Pikachu (it’s the partner pikachu from pokemon yellow or ash’s pikachu from the anime. it’s not just Any pikachu you can’t say that)
6. Yoshi (same thing again that’s the origin of the species yoshi but not this character named yoshi)
7. Ness (the character ness from mother 2 is obviously the same character Idea as ninten from mother 1, they just have different default names and barely different designs. if link counts as being from zelda 1 then ness should count as being the same character as ninten)
8. Luigi (game & watch games are not “real video games” so they do not count)
9. Mario (the matpat thing.)
10. Samus (uh. metroid 1 is no longer canon it was overridden by zero mission so it doesn’t count? sure some people probably believe that)
11. Fox (idk I can’t think of anything for this one beyond “well smash bros isn’t canon so fox from smash is a different guy”)
12. Kirby (one of the only characters where you could make a reasonable argument that their smash bros appearance Is canon to their source material tbh)

The phrase “Out of Touch Thursday” was first used by YouTube user xdr xdr.

Hey look, it’s some corporate ghouls trying to market Out of Touch Thursday! 

I love the full circle nature of this. A meme naturally occurring, growing in popularity, and then finally being seized upon to make a quick dollar.

everyone’s like wehhhhh why doesn’t doctor house gets suuuueeed! like my man. literally every patient he sees is someone that’s been trying to find a diagnosis for ages. i could live with a little medical malpractice if it were coming from someone ready to break into my home to look for allergens and not simply half heartedly listen to me before suggesting I lose weight and take ages of back and forth arguing to order a single test

“it’s medical malpractice” have u ever been a doctor? most medicine is malpractice. let the man limp around chewing vicodin doing 50 invasive tests please

Once Taub (derogatory) derisively said about a patient with unexplained chronic pain “7 doctors couldn’t find anything wrong with him, what does that mean?” and House replied without even thinking “it means they’re idiots” and proceed to work his ass off to diagnose the patient Taub wanted to write off as a faker or something. If a doctor had said that when that patient was ME, I wouldn’t dream of suing them in a million years
