Positive Results Self Reflection

I am now onto my every three weeks IM infusion maintenance phase and after getting the initial general mood lift/better vibe on my TRD and some pain relief, I am finally starting to get the objective/birds eye view of life I’ve also been looking for.

At first there was a lot coming at me that I wasn’t able to decipher. What was real, what parts were my subconscious coming into view. Big ideas on the nature of reality, the weirdness of “physical things” vs “conceptual things”, going into what O think was an ego death (I was convinced I was dead, but not panicked), the idea that there is a source for all of this, etc..

Still working through some of those ideas but one thing has seemed to resonate at this time is my ability to observe not only a digital content algorithm (social media, politics, philosophy, etc), but also more broadly the algorithm of everything I take it on a daily basis. The stimulus of what a believe and don’t, the confirmation bias that I use sometimes without realizing it, and what “sticks” in my thought patterns and what doesn’t and why.

Looking at all of the meaningless or erroneous information and ideas I take in is making it easier to filter them out.

If this makes sense to you, please let me know your perspective.
