Let me know when you get to the steam.

Awesome! 🧡

Fortunately I'm completely fine at the moment and am now in therapy for tangentially related reasons, so if it starts again I'll have the necessary support I think. Thanks for the concern though.

No, I think it’s that brain is always analyzing various choices. For example, if I’m looking at a restaurant menu and craving pizza, my brain might ponder, What if I get a burger? It doesn’t mean I secretly want a burger, or that pizza is harmful; it’s just a thing that happens.

Just wanna emphasize what the other commenter said.

I concur with everything aforementioned. I Would recommend having your blood sugar tested. What you are describing may be abnormal but not an emergency.

The wirkd exists and functions on a wavelength. Music/sound literally resonates with our organism and environment.

I dunno, I've never tried... Let me cool down some water to 25°C

I have a theory that it has to do with the feeling of not being in control of anything in your life anymore, and that "the call to the void" is the last ditch effort to have some semblance of control.

Can confirm as a type-2 myself.

Correct answer. Lock the thread. OP go see a doctor now.

Yes, but there a too-hot outside and a too-cold inside is delicious. Pittsburgh Rare is a fine thing.

It's not so great for cooking chicken.

When you begin learn something you have to exceed “active” thought processes. After you know how to do said thing your automatic brain facilitates actions.

Most of us do not think about walking. And can think and multitask. However when you run most need to utilize “system two thinking” process more.

Just my thoughts...

Consider the way we speak to new born children when encouraging speech, whether we mean to or not we incorporate musicality and melody into it. I think this makes a good case for music being a fastener for accurate recall and repetition and subsequent language use. The first words children use are often thusly musical, like dada or mama etc.. Since that is an evolutionarily valid reason for doing it it may be that it is encouraged, and as a side effect we are receptive to, and rewarded by that same melody/music even removed from speech and communication.

Yes, multiplication is arbitrary and meaningless if you use a scale that does not actually start at 0.

Your post just made me consider the idea that our understanding of the musical scale and it's progressions that constitute being "in tune", could theoretically be out of tune for other species, terrestrial or otherwise.

Like, imagine that to a different set of ears, what we consider harmonic was the opposite, and a group of notes that we consider incompatible are actually the pleasant sounding chord?

Imagine aliens played us their music, and to them it sounded like a sweeping, major key orchestral piece that sounded uplifting and happy to them, and to us it sounded like a completely out of key minor piece? Imagine if their version of music theory was also the "wavelength" that like, reptiles and insects heard it properly?

I've always loved music partly because it's "universal", if you can speak the language of music you can communicate with people from around the world without saying a word. But I never considered that it was because we all hear music/chords/harmonies the same way.

What a trip.

This is good advice. I have never experienced nor heard of getting thirsty after eating sweet food before this post so OP should look into that

"Believe a woman, you will regret it; believe her not, you will also regret it… Hang yourself, you will regret it; do not hang yourself, and you will regret that too; hang yourself or don't hang yourself, you'll regret it either way; whether you hang yourself or do not hang yourself, you will regret both."

Good ol' Soren, cheery bloke.

Thirstiness after consuming sugar is a symptom of diabetes. It also results in plenty of urinating. Your body is essentially trying to flush the excess sugar out of your system. Consider having your blood sugar tested.

Humans like music because it is a form of expression that can be enjoyed by everyone. Music can evoke emotions and create a sense of community. It can also be used as a form of therapy to help people relax or cope with stress.
