Personally I don't take resolutions but I set goals.

Life is balanced.

The thing is, I cannot feel my heartbeat at all at rest, even when I try to (P.S. I am not a vampire I do have a pulse lol) and was wondering how weird that was. Also a lot of the time, when my heart rate is high I can't always tell, but my fitbit will show me that it is higher. If I am scared, or anxious, then maybe I'll notice it more, or if I have just been exercising. 

Some scientists think training people to feel their heart beat (accurately) could lessen anxiety symptoms. I am finding it pretty fascinating how much of an effect physical sensations impact emotions and vice versa.

People with greater interoceptive accuracy—who can feel their heartbeats more—have more emotional intensity. This has been shown in a number of studies where people are given emotional material, like films to watch. The ones who are more accurate at feeling their heartbeats found the emotional films to be more intense.

Anxious people are more likely to think they have accurate interoception. Just like people can be accurate at perceiving their heartbeat without knowing that they are, anxious people can think they're good at interoception when they're not. “You could think you’re great,” Garfinkel said. “But when we test you in the lab, your accuracy could be quite poor.”

They’ve found that it's this mismatch between how accurate you think you are at feeling your heartbeat and your true accuracy level that is a strong predictor for anxiety symptoms—so, both having lower interoception as well as overestimating your own abilities.

I'd be a bear

I'd be a faerie

To people who are not cis-gendered, I want this poll to reach you because I hope to hear about how binary sex assignment impacts peoples' lives and experiences. To people of all gender identities, please share your experiences both within and without the practice of gender binary.

This is not intended as a "Yeah, but what's in your pants?" survey. Please feel free to share your stories while leaving the poll unfilled if that makes you more comfortable.

What about y'all?

for me, it feels like from 8th December is good time to start

in irish culture, we do place significance on the religious day of the 8th december and despite not being religious, i think it's a good time for it

pick the nearest day in the poll, or the last option

Edit: I screwed up the poll answers but it's fixed now

My answers: libido - non-existent, arousal - only physical, fetish - unsure, sexual desire - no, sexual attraction no, aesthetic attraction - yes, sensual attraction - yes, attitude - between indifferent and repulsed

my favourite is the malteaser truffley teaser, then the bounty is my second favourite

my least favourite is mars.

however i believe even though i'm not a fan of the mars sweets in it, i don't feel any shoud be removed
