   Awesome stuff! Agree with everything. The neuropsychology and addiction part, I need to look into that! Thanks for this! :)

    This is really interesting! Being knowledgeable in various areas of a sector, which means people (in that sector) would probably find it directly useful or relevant. That's awesome :) Thanks! Wish you the best going back to off-grid so

    Yeah I'm realizing that HN doesn't have a good way to check for replies. Makes it hard to have any discussion lasting more than a few days... I would really love to follow up on all the comments I'm getting and thank everyone

    That's really great advice. I especially like your point on going beyond basic notes/summaries. Thanks again!! :)

    Thank you again for your kind advice. That's a good point, regarding my uncertainty and whether others share the experience. Your comment has made me realize that I feel most reassured when the people I look up to also share the experi

    > I'm a little worried from your description that you might be aversive to some stuff that might be helpful. As obvious as that sounds I never really thought much about my aversions until now that I'm using the word repeatedly.

    Thanks for sharing that. It really does help. I have a theory that I feel most reassured when the people I look up to also share the experience (ie I'm not any less-than for it, and I still have potential despite it), like people on HN

    > I think this means that you're a balanced person Paradox and balance, I've never thought about it that way before! This is a really huge potential reframe for me. And maybe why I felt so unsettled and anxious, because I was s

    Sorry I lashed out. The problem is that certain mindsets are not chosen, but engrained and hard to erase. You can't assume we can simply "Stop" our destructive mindsets. Also, "I just want to sit down and read my books a

    I was wondering if I had ADHD as well, but I never "overdo" my homework, like what you've described and what I've heard some ADHD people talk about. I talk more about my thought patterns and behaviors in another Ask HN

    I suspect I have ADHD as well. Well, at least something similar / along the spectrum. I talk about it more in another Ask HN here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30952648 Would love your input! :)

    Thanks for bringing that up. I actually posted another Ask HN about that because of your thread :) https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30952648

    Thanks for the response but I really don't appreciate the patronizing. I criticize and dismiss myself enough as it is. I'm all for constructive feedback, but this ain't it. You obviously don't understand a thing about ne

    Another question, if you don't mind: What sort of things do you think I could write as a novice in these fields?? I don't think I'm interested in writing study notes or summaries etc. I think I'm more inquiry-inclined, s
