i can basically disable the mere effect at will now and see my face for what it really is, a melting mess.
but it didn't just affect my perception of myself. before psl i could obviously tell that something was "off" about other people with minor asymmetries but wasn't able to pin point it, but now it takes me just a few seconds to identify one ramus being longer than the other, one eye being 0.2cm higher than the other, the nose deviating from the facial midline, one half of the face being more forward grown than the other.
and once i notice it, i can't not focus on it like an absolute autist.
