This is another one of those things where real life is a little different with me, which might make me a pushover when it comes to non-serious things. Just those things you learn to do to avoid that pain.

My best attempt at physically hiding was during some games involving these things. Someone tasked with finding people tripped over me and kept on going, thinking I was "natural". I got a black eye from that one due to the boot to the face. I don't like talking about accomplishments, but that'd be about as good as you can get when it comes to hiding.

They might be worse (why are you saying that btw?) but they dont make you sound drunk or high.

The mental illness medications I take will make most inebriated at therapeutic doses. :wink: That's generally why they're used, as that sedation is one of the desired effects. Something I take will likely be not much different on my liver as ethanol, and that along with a couple of others will be worse for long-term CNS stuff. Ethanol will be worse for liver stuff for similar sedative effects though; one needs to consume far more ethanol to hit the same level of sleepy (well, for me anyway).

As for me,

Hmmmm. I can only really handle long distance study and self-employment. I'm not all that good at either, but that's basically the best I can hope for. Me no good around more than a handful of people and I like moving to my own time (that's probably an understatement).

I step over ants.
That makes walking the dogs a pain in the arse. lol

I pick up worms after it rains to save them from the ants.

I find life an obscenity.
Brutality everywhere you look. 8O

I used to play with ants when I was a kid in my parents garden, when bored, in the sunshine. I liked setting them off in different directions and disrupting their harmony.

I used to get crumbs from my morning toasted bread & would set a crumb in the middle of a bunch of ants and then watch them carry the bread, which was bigger than their entire body.

I stood on ants a few times and I felt sad but they sometimes missed death by being smaller than the grooves in the soles of my shoes.

My favorite weather is the kind where you can turn off the heating/cooling machinery and open your windows and doors.

Such as, right now here today, 8) :D

I can't really show my pain when I'm beyond a certain threshold. One of those things I learnt from life. I'll appear normal, but inside... . Maybe I should, but I always fear it making people sad for me in a way I don't want. Not a burden, no. But, things that wouldn't be received otherwise. This isn't why I originally did it, rather that's just what you learn to cope. Sadly, I usually withdraw into my shell afterwards, but I won't do that one again (not breakdown related).

I've only been like it a few times.

I had subscriptions to Batman, Transformers, Detective Comics, JLA, and X-Men growing up.
