Nothing gets through to it. Nothing can pierce it. Nothing can affect it. Elephant skin? Our brains are the same. Nothing gets through to it. Nothing can pierce it. Nothing can affect it. Elephant brain? A defense mechanism against what?

In this case, she had dementia, but for the sake of the question, you can imagine you're experiencing real time shifts or might be starting to miss bits. To help herself identify where she was and whether the reality she was experiencing was the real "now," she stashed chess pieces in various places. She knew if she found a chess piece, she was in the present and would become grounded. If it was you, what might you try to do to ground yourself, identify which time/ reality you were in, or prove that the shifts were happening? less

I mean, you're talking to someone and all they can see in that moment is the bad stuff- the hardships, challenges, victimization, and so forth. What's the best way to respond to them in that moment?
My natural me is silly and irreverent.. I laugh and joke about almost everything.. Sadly I am not able to show that in most of of my life at the moment..

Is that thee?I bought some fancy ski clothes and went skiing THE FIRST TIME. I'm not cut out for it so. I loaned the clothes to a gal with whom I worked. She quit and didn't return them or pay me. I gave my favorite sweater ON LOAN to a friend when it was cold and she left my house to go home. I thought we'd see each other again. Never did.I've let people use dishes and pots and pans and never got them back. I have no idea why I'm even thinking about it now decades later. Sheesh. It's my fault of course so how come I'm bit**ing? I ALWAYS return what I borrow. I NEVER have kept anything that didn't belong to me. Just like going to the library and returning books that are due I never didn't NOT do that. Did you? less
