Yeah, thanks.
And this level is boring.
Like...
Any adverse emotions are quickly solved, quickly forgave, quickly processed and done.
And the ego is just a barking messenger of self preservation, just as optional to listen to.
Like... I don't need to deliberately practice self forgiveness and asking for forgiveness itself.
No maintenance, no medications, no dietary changes, no external habit to keep up...
.. Thus no fear that it will suddenly 'undone' if I did or didn't do something...
Not even eating the 'wrong things', or not sleeping for few days because I don't feel like it unlike before.
That's something I've yet to rectify because I like the idea of self optimization, but my habits remained unchanged...
Just genuine inner change.
My reactions are very different.
I just don't know what to do with it.
All I've read about such state is upon a mastery; like in careers.
That 99% is based on that one goal and 1% is letting it all go like I did.
I already did that supposedly final 1%.
What is my 99%? I hadn't built a career, I barely learnt something new except everything of what just doesn't work or do not work out for me...
I guess the only thing for me to try and figure is the cognition itself.
Not the mind as a whole, but cognition. Because it went unreliable since I've been working, encumbered by having too many feelings.
Hmmm ...
I'm not going to spend my entire 30s like I did with my whole 20s undoing unwanted emotionality crap. I want something that will put me into a place of permanent growth...
I wonder if this is like working out; like how the body can remember...
Can the mind remember the mental prowess I possessed when I was younger? Or do I have to start from scratch?
All I can remember as a kid is that I have habits that do not permit or even suggest limiting. It's a mix of over reliance on super focus and hyperindependence.
I still do to this day.
Residual habit of trying to ignore my sensitivities and needs, believing to be better than everyone by lasting longer and getting everything more...
No subtle moderation, which is something I've yet to learn well...
Maybe that's my 99%??
Meta-doing it all backwards anyone?
OR --- ! !! The only hints I get is from accounts about CPTSD post healing;
That this is akin to the reaction towards healing.
For being too used to the pendulum and chaotic waves for so long, that stable is utterly boring... All the time spent doing damage control and suddenly I don't.
So basically; habits and acquisitions all over again.
That I may even out better with time and development actual skills vs just coping skills.
Unlearning unwanted coping skills, unlearning the crap built around it, learning skills that will actually progress me into growing, learning to build stuff that do matter to me and do reflect my priorities in reality.
Like I've been saying since taking BCPs for the first few days; I would need to learn how to function this way now that there's no hidden internal force is swaying me in different directions...
And it does take a while.
Doesn't help that I've dealt with boredom too often. Maybe feeling bored is a habit, maybe not.
Lots to untangle.
But nothing as distressing or gigantic as the ones I've solved before.
Resensitization and the phase to start appreciating the mundane and small simple things, some do say.
It's something I've never did as a kid, but it's a direction I'm drawn to go at my age...
Those who are, well, past this phase after safety and security would be regaining curiosity...
... Which is in line with what I have planned someday.
... Which is something I'll be looking forward to.
Some can mistake this as some another depressive state or mourning state.
But I knew myself enough that's not the case. Since I've already described the feeling of true neutral nothing...
Just have to past this level.
Boring level.
