strength was built like a work of art

Blindsight 

Here are some study tips I found for myself after I did a course in neuropsychology last semester. This list is by no means complete but just based on what was covered in our book! I hope these are helpful to you!

No multitasking!

Use flashcards!

Don’t just passively read, work with the information!

Mindmaps to better understand connections between different topics!

Give meaning to the information & relate it to already known information!

When studying new things, repeat very often at start, then gradually increase intervals of repetition!

When having a long study session, try to alternate between different subjects!

Study in a way that is similar to how you have to retrieve the information in the exam!

Test yourself!

Before the exam imagine the place where you studied for it!

Learn in an environment that is similar to the environment at exam!

by me, a fool who doesnt wanna die anymore 

never make a suicide joke again. yes this includes “i wanna die” as a figure of speech. swear off of it. actually make an effort to change how you think about things.

find something to compliment someone for at least 4 times a day. notice the little things about the world that make you happy, and use that to make other people happy.

talk to people. initiate conversation as often as you possibly can. keep your mind busy and you wont have to worry anymore

picture the bad intrusive thoughts in youe head as an edgy 13 year old and tell them to go be emo somewhere else

Like every time I trip and fall, instead of saying “l’m just a disaster human” I say “I’m the epitome of grace and beauty”

Or like, when I draw a picture I’m not 100% happy with, instead of saying “my art is trash” I say something like “you know I think it’s time we replaced the Mona Lisa”

When you do that you get to make a joke, but you’re ALSO getting practice building yourself up, y’know?
