My name is Illiadia. I have lvl 1 autism, cptsd, ocd, and variants of dyslexia. I'm mainly here because I've been walking the path of self-healing recently, and I'd like to reach out for some kinds of external connection. Currently, I'm living a fairly reclused life, near hikikomori levels. One of the things that I believe makes me unique is I have a deep capability to achieve auto meta-cognition, which allows me to self reflect and change myself consciously/actively. This was buried because of the cptsd, but I've only recently regained it, and now I'm using it to heal myself as much as possible.

Rewritten, I'm here to make friends! Maybe make new connections. Regardless of what happens going forward, it makes me happy knowing my experience isn't just my own. I'm happy this community exists. Thank you!

I don't know how likely you are to make a friend here that you physically see in real life, but overall it is a very nice crowd.

I'm glad I'm here.

LunarFox, Welcome to Wrong Planet.

I wasn't familiar with the term auto meta-cognition, so I looked it up.



O.K. I think I understand. I used it successfully years ago but without a computer running the process. We tend to attack a problem one step at a time. You start at the beginning and then go to the next step and then the next step until you reach the final conclusion. But in this type of approach, you break the task down into many, many pieces and begin to takle the problem all at the same time.

For example, if you have a task where one step will require several months to complete once you begin this subtask, this subtask must be moved to the front of the line.

Sometimes there is a task that you have no control over. You will depend on someone else to perform this task. They can cause you to come to a fatal stop. You have to find these elements and go to battle to overcome them.
