Living Upside Down
I may have been born upside down. I do most things the opposite of what successful people do. Me and success don't mix. I'm neuro-divergent. Born a dinosaur. I wonder how my ancestors managed to survive in human society as long as they did? They should have been extinct sooner, then I wouldn't have been born. What an unfortunate turn of events.

Re: Living Upside Down
Babies are supposed to be born 'upside-down'.

Re: Living Upside Down
If all or most babies are born upside down, then upside down is right side up and the inverse of that is upside down. If all babies are born upside down, then I was born upside down from that, meaning right side up.

If you move to Oz, you'll be the right way up.
The biggest problem is for me, i can't get my favourite desert, an upside down pear pudding. I even tried to make one, they always come out the right way up.

Being aware of pain is traumatising.
Slow physical and mental torment are the most insidious forms of pain.
It’s tragic to be born human.

Re: Living Upside Down
Everyone seems to be thinking deeply about "upside down." Maybe it's our differences that make life interesting! Thanks for sharing your thoughts, everyone.

Re: Living Upside Down
Hey folks, been scrollin’ through this psych chat and it’s hittin’ me—how crazy is it that our minds juggle stuff like emotions and habits all day? Perception’s a trip too, like we’re all runnin’ our own lil’ experiments up there. Dunno, just feels like psychology’s us tryin’ to crack the code on ourselves. What y’all think—nature or nurture weighin’ heavier these days?block blast
