    All of my social activities involve quiet rooms and less than 10 people. Although I will say that if the crowd gets big enough then the white noise all the talking creates can be calming. Unfortunately the hundreds of people bumping into you kinda ruins the whole thing.

    Yes! It can be very effective for certain things and for certain people. It’s much more useful for those of us with ADHD. It’s helpful for retraining things like imposter syndrome, self- loathing, anxiety, etc.

    Personally I have found FasterEFT is more helpful since it’s a quick in the moment fix and can be learned in a few minutes, but it does require self awareness. Meditation helps there and both seem easier and more useful to me.
