Growing up everyone around me treated me like a weird freak for staring off at like a wall or out the window or something else when I was lost in thought or bored, so what are we supposed to do when we’re not actively look at something?

Answer: a wall or out the window or something else. Those “everyone” probably never had a thought
The age old question of “am I autistic or was everyone I grew up around just an asshole?”
You’re on lemmy asking about a behavior that you do not understand fully. And you question its social connotations.
The first one is… pretty obvious. Welcome home.
And yes everyone was an asshole too. They still are in fact.
It could be both!
If you are asking the first part is probably true, and for the people you noticed the second part is probably true.
Probably just assholes.
I like to call that place I go to in my brain when I’m not even having a thought “The Nothing Box”. The Nothing Box is where nothing happens. You climb into your little box, and it’s practically like being braindead. You don’t think, you don’t see, you don’t hear, and you don’t feel. You’re just nothing for a short little while until some asshole rips you out of your peaceful and quiet Nothing Box, complaining about you not listening, staring or whatever.
The nothing box is a magical place where you get to just chill for half a minute. Worries don’t matter, life doesn’t excist, all that is, is nothing.
I’ve been wondering this quite a bit lately.
Definitely assholes. Who doesn’t stare off into space from time to time
Yes.
