"Asking me to not be cute is like asking a fish to breathe out of water, it is just not biologically possible.

I always thought it was normal that I could make time pass super quickly by “turning my head off” and living in a fantasy world for a while, but I guess it’s not?

I don’t think it is quite the same thing as is being depicted in the art, the fact they are calling it an “episode” implies that it is involuntary.

I’ve lost a good chunk of that ability anyway, and long wait periods now annoy me.

If you are anything like me then talking aloud really helps with this, whenever I need to wait for something I just mutter little stories to myself while pretending to be on the phone. That is if I am not already thinking about something else.

I was gonna post in !artshare@lemmy.world as well but they say they “appreciate” AI “art” (but don’t allow it) in the rules which I found to be off-putting.

That is a strangely passive way to ban AI slop. Glad you have enough self respect to avoid the bullshit. Great work as always.

Dissociation is a concept which concerns a wide array of experiences, ranging from a mild emotional detachment from the immediate surroundings, to a more severe disconnection from physical and emotional experiences. The major characteristic of all dissociative phenomena involves a detachment from reality, rather than a false perception of reality as in psychosis.[1][2][3][4]

More pathological dissociation involves dissociative disorders, including dissociative fugue and depersonalization derealization disorder with or without alterations in personal identity or sense of self. These alterations can include: a sense that self or the world is unreal or altered (depersonalization and derealization), a loss of memory (amnesia), forgetting identity or assuming a new self (fugue), and separate streams of consciousness, identity and self (dissociative identity disorder, formerly termed multiple personality disorder) and complex post-traumatic stress disorder.[24][25] Although some dissociative disruptions involve amnesia, other dissociative events do not.[26]

The context implies that they are experiencing a very acute form of this.

Same here.

Another option would be to move somewhere walkable so that walking becomes an automatic part of your day.

Eh, sometimes you have to use it in the defense of others as well.

Looks like we found who has the chemicals.
