Teluer's hello thread

Post Reply New Topic

Greetings from Moldova!

I promise to post an appropriate introduction here, but I need to address a technical issue first.
I registered with a gmail address recently (username "Teluer"), but that account got "banned permanently" before I could even make my first post.

One possible reason is that I haven't received a confirmation email (this time too) and maybe my account timed out. Anyone had similar issues with gmail?

I tried to write to alex, but they haven't been online since April, and I got a delivery failure notification on email.

Is there some active mod / admin / jedi who could help me out with this? Ideally, I'd prefer to keep the original account ("Teluer") and drop this replacement.

Your "Teluer" account was banned because it matched the name of an AI.
We get several spam accounts created here daily and tend to act on suspicions - which are not always correct, as here.

Apologies - the "Teluer" account has been unbanned; the password and email are unchanged.

Hi Teluer,
Welcome to the planet.

Welcome to WP! I hope it works well for you in the future.

Welcome

welcome and i see the original one is back

Welcome to WP! I think I can speak for all of us when I say, I'm happy you aren't a Temu bot. Hahaha.

So, hi everyone!

When I first found this forum, I was skeptical, because "Wrong planet" kinda implies that I'm not welcome on Earth. But then I thought, what if it's "wrong planet" as in "messed up planet"? Now that's 100% true, and I'm very much a part of it. So here I am, joining proudly.

I'm 34, recently assessed (at 32), still processing. I self-diagnosed first and then confirmed with a clinical psychologist.
During the process, I also discovered I might have C-PTSD because my parents tried to "make me better" a bit too much.
So, I went to discuss these findings with my mom, and it didn't go well. What a surprise. There's something about having to inform my own parent of my congenital disability that I find rather triggering. Or maybe it's that my C-PTSD "sounded like an accusation" to her. Anyway, one thing led to another and I went no-contact with my whole family for 9 months. Carefully switching to low-contact now.

My special interests are writing, altered states of consciousness, writing about altered states of consciousness, a bit of gaming, dreams and lucid dreaming. I'd say it's all tied to demand avoidance and escaping this reality altogether, because that's what I'm all about.

I also managed to quit smoking following a self-devised approach. The main thing that helped me was curiosity - I was very curious to figure out how my nicotine addiction works and how I can regain control of my own behavior. So, I spent some time experimenting and observing myself. Eventually I accumulated enough understanding and tricks up my sleeve to crack this puzzle.

There's a lot more to (over)share, but I'll leave some stuff for other threads
Hope you had fun reading this, take care.

(also, please go to Temu and buy everything)

It is unfortunately not an unfamiliar story. Some parts a bit more than others.

The name comes from "wrong planet syndrome", the feeling that you feel to be from a different planet sometimes, trying to understand humans to fit in. I've read similar ideas from 'the other side' but usually more medic and harsh.

I think it was an invention/description of Alex Planck (the founder of this site) himself that resonates in many of us. It did with me in any case.

Thank you for stopping smoking! I am allergic to even trace amounts of cigarette smoke and I'm glad to hear that there is one less smoker out there irritating eyes and throat!
