Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

The rules are simple:

The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
The comic must be a complete story.
If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
You may post comics from others or your own.
If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
Politeness.
Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

i will definetly check the book out when im not as pressed for time (and tired as fuck), its not the first time i hear of it. hopefully it clicks for me and hopefully its as helpful as you say.

i think my anxiety comes from not doing enough of the stuff i want to do instead, at least nowadays. ive found cool normies to hang out with throughout the years sometimes, but ive always had a feeling that more than half of my friends were neurodivergent in a way or another. not necessarily the same as me, but looking back they were much better and more trustworthy people than average, thats for sure. i do feel dumber sometimes, its hard to participate effectively when you are juggling many thoughts.

we can be friends if you dont mind that i scrapped most forms of social media from my life, and communicate with messengers mostly. you seem like a good person.

For sure man, anxiety can come from a lot of things, but no matter what it's from it can put you in a brain fog.

Looking back, I was lucky enough to have a group of friends in high school which we cleverly called "the group" (lol), and we were all weird and very likely neurodivergent. One thing I learned early was, weird people are a lot more authentic and authentic is much safer. Sounds like you have had a similar experience.

I'll hit you up in a dm for contact info. I am also barely on SM... shits cancer imo. I'm going to leave this conversation thread here in the event that maybe someone can take value from it in some amount of time, if that's cool with you.
