Probably Ben and Jerry's Cherry Garcia.

Same question.

I think I've become "okay" at reading facial expressions through learning how to do so.

I'm not really sure if I convey my moods with my facial expressions all that well. I really don't actually know.

Same question.

Not sure if I'm well read or not.
Because I always pay attention on someone's mouth as they speak instead of their eyes or whole face.

I likely convey emotions right, without effort or having to exaggerate it. If anything else, I'm trying to do the opposite.
Except, it is likely the emotions itself are not always appropriate instead of the expressions of any emotion.



Can you meditate without closing your eyes? While doing something?

Not at all.

Same question.

I don't believe that I really know how to meditate at all. ADHD and anxiety make it very hard to have any quiet, calm moments.

Do you struggle with anxiety?

In my late childhood and up to my early teenage years, yes. I had focused figuring how it worked and how not to make it a problem at myself, and did it before I was 18.

Now, I don't. I deal with something else instead.
Something more subtle than thoughts and emotions of anxiety... Or at least that's where my focus lie.

Yes. I scored >99th percentile for Anxiety on the MAQ test in my assessment. I also have CPTSD which is an anxiety disorder, and agoraphobia / scopophobia / panic disorder / mutism which are all related to anxiety. The problem is that I have had so much anxiety for so long, I don't even notice it. It's kind of a baseline or default feeling, as natural to me as breathing.

A resounding YES. I am in a near constant state of anxiety/overstimulation (and have always been this way).

Do you own any pets? If so, please describe them!

I have a Border Collie who I love with all my heart. She is the kindest, sweetest dog I've ever known. She is a blue merle collie which means she has a lot of grey in her coat in addition to black and white and her left eye is partially blue - like a crescent moon. We have no secrets from each other.

Can you squat with flat feet and not fall over?

Yes.


Ever brought a living being (a cat or a dog or maybe a bird) in a closed bag?

When we first got our oldest cat as a kitten I was going to bring her to school in my bag (with it slightly unzipped so she can breathe and stick her head out, of course), but decided against it. She liked jumping in there and wanted to come with me so I was almost going to oblige.

Same question.

I brought a goldfish home in a small, clear plastic bag once, as a kid. Can't remember where I got it from, though.

Do you still use plastic bags for shopping?

Yes.
Only whenever it involves wet and very cold items. Paper bags would break and eco bags aren't always on hand or available.
