Anxiety attacks aren’t always hyperventilating and rocking back and forth

Anxiety attacks can take different forms, such as:

  • Unpredictable bouts of rage or irritability
  • Nit-pickiness (obsessive behavior, which may be a part of OCD), and even a hypersensitivity to disarray, chaos, or any sort of change
  • Fast-talking, stuttering, stumbling over words
  • Not talking at all
  • Sitting rigid, staring into space, almost seeming “zoned out”

Understanding the way our or other’s anxiety works can help to decrease the stigma and help to calm a person faster and get them out of that state. These are just a few, but it gives an idea of the range in which attacks can come.

This. A lot. And I mean A LOT of people forget.

Woah

HOLY SHIT, THESE QUALIFY AS PANIC ATTACK BEHAVIOR?

tumblr: stop liking—

no because I am a responsible functioning adult with a healthy disassociation between fiction and reality

#yES #i love you tumblr but fuck me there is a big difference between constructive discourse and censorship #can you imagine a uni english class #where the discussion stopped with #‘hamlet was problematic and therefore it is imperative that we never speak his name ever again #if you find him compelling you’re bad people lol’#instead 'hamlet is a problematic bag of dicks #now lET’S CRACK THAT DOUCHE-EGG OPEN AND FIND OUT WHAT HIS DEAL IS’#tumblr #and like i should add: if you can’t disassociate between the fiction and reality that is perfectly okay #no one is forcing you to like anything here or even be okay with it #this is not a scenario where one type of person is right and the other is wrong though #it’s just that honestly we are all special fucking snowflakes you know? we’re all different #and you can’t demand that everyone process things like you #if you don’t like something for the love of god just avoid it #in fandom especially the aim is to enjoy yourself #don’t insist on torturing yourself by throwing yourself neck deep into your triggers #and demand that everyone conform to your needs #tag ranting #god i’m sorry why do i do this to these poor tags (tags courtesy of fireflyca)

The best explanation I’ve heard so far for why R2 only woke up at the end, is that he actually does start booting up when BB8 first finds him; he just has to get through 10 years worth of updates before that.

I can literally accept that

Robert Sapolsky about his study of the Keekorok baboon troop from National Geographic’s Stress: Portrait of a Killer.

Thiiiiiiis, people, thiiiis!

I’ve actually read a lot of Sapolsky’s work.  He’s one of my favorite scientists in the neuro/socio world.

I just watched the documentary and there is so much more about the troop that isn’t in this photoset—not only does the troop have a culture of little aggression and greater cooperation, but any incoming jerk baboons learned within a few months that their shitty behaviour was in no way acceptable, that the troop only rewarded sociability, and they changed accordingly.
