Yes! I’m autistic and ambiguity is extremely mentally and emotionally distressing for me. I need things to make sense and not knowing doesn’t fulfill that for me. The absolutes are a way of me ending a cognitive loop that will keep spinning otherwise.

In OCD therapy, the main purpose is to accept the discomfort of uncertainty because when you constantly seek certainty in situations, you’re teaching your brain that it’s dangerous, when really it’s an impossible standard to maintain and instead learning to accept that life can’t promise any guarantee allows you to accept things as they come and live in the moment

Yes! Learning this… uncertainty is VERY uncomfortable it takes me down a rabbit hole. I’m learning to allow things to just be.

Black and white thinking is one of the HARDEST patterns of thinking that I struggle with because when thinking like you said in absolutes it's so harmful. I'm a very logical person so when things aren't so cut and dry, my mind wanders and then spirials. it makes me so uncomfortable and yet I've been reminding myself that nuance is a thing. two things are true at the same time. there's depth in life, in emotions, in EVERYTHING

This. It’s like worse case scenario is more believable/safer for me so it’s my default, or what I lean towards if that makes sense.

The way I learned to not care and keep carrying on 😂 I control what I can control and that’s my peace. I recognized permanent is not normal.

Everything is subjective so why are we not overthinking the best possible scenario instead of living in the despair of concrete realities

I had to learn this while taking care of my mom. Life just happens how it happens and it’s layered and that’s okay! Analyzing and ambiguity do not go together. Theories will get you down! Love this convo

My problem is I don’t result to absolutes. I understand that things run their course & I accept it but I never understand why things couldn’t go in my favor. I replay how things could’ve gone different

Yessss! There are no mistakes, there is always a point we just won’t know until we know.

I think extreme exaggerations of this kind develop from never having our feelings externally validated bc the things that caused them weren’t “a big deal” so now everything that hurts us has to be a Big Deal

her vocabulary reminds me of when I used to look up complex words on google to use in paragraphs when arguing with somebody to feel like I have the upper hand😂
