The unique trait of neurodivergent people is that they think about their brain as a separate entity
Everyone does that…?
we have a love/hate relationship
It is just that neurotypicals are still living in the matrix
Whoever separates matter and arrangement, hardware and software.
Lizard brain ruined the mind's day.
It kinda is, isn't it?
It just raises interesting questions about our consciousness if we can kinda observe from "outside" our brain's behaviour
You're pretty close to the yoga concept of a witness that observes the mind https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sakshi_(witness)
Sounds like disassociation.
TIL I might be neurodivergent 😅
Other people don't? It is a separate entity in many ways, from my understanding there are portions of the brain that react much more like an organ than what we perceive as our "consciousness.". I was actually taught to separate myself from my brain the "organ" and how it responds to situations differently than I would prefer haha
