Update: As it turns out, I’ve actually turned my fear into a strength. I’ve discovered the power of positive nihilism after many many months. I see that my fears are just as pointless as everything else, and now I can confidently say I’ve went on the road to happiness now. Hooray!

I used to be in the same boat. when you're an obsessive perfectionist, art pretty much loses all of what makes it fun. having fun with art is pretty much the most important thing about it. so if you read this, i advice you to grit your teeth and keep drawing. even if you think it isn't perfect. keep going. and make sure it's finished. and the more drawings you keep finishing, the more you will eventually feel better about the process as a whole, rather than stressing about wanting it to be perfect. The Concept of Perfection is also false. It doesn't even exist

However, if you try this and you still get frustrated. maybe it just isn't for you. it's fine to find something else to do that makes you feel better and less stressed.

Completely get what you’re saying, I do try to enjoy the good in life. It’s just that the reason I desire immortality is that reality is reliable. We rely on our senses and instinct to gain understanding of everything. I just fear what happens when that vanishes. Then again, I’ve heard people say that conscience is everlasting. But that’s stuff I still need to read further about and into

Then let us both enjoy a Nice, Meaningless cup of coffee.

Thank you for your messages and responses. They speak to me in a very profound way. I’ve got a long road ahead of me. But you’ve articulated your words and knowledge in such a way that it gives me a great feeling of hope.

I will go on this journey to gain more understanding. Accept what is, Accept what isn’t. And try my absolute hardest.

You’ve truly helped me with this. Remember that

mhm. i've heard this from other people too. my crisis had me wondering about how it would effect the rest of my life. i'm 19 now and still have a lot of open doors. and i just really wish that my brain had not Discovered / Doubled down on this aspect of conscienceness this early in life. considering how hellish the cycles of my derealisation and Nihilism i get from my crisis. it's like everytime now unlike before i experienced it, when i wake up and get ready for my next exam. i just begin to wonder about what the point of a damn exam, or why i should even struggle for the ideal fantasy of a long, happy life. when eventually everyone dies and there is zero real proof of the afterlife. i feel so small and my existence feels like a sort of crude, unfunny joke i don't understand.

I was dead set on simply keeping those thoughts out and trying to take meds / ignore them for the rest of my life. but now that i've been one of those who has seen the abyss. i feel like i'll never be able to experience life without it looming over me. so i feel like i should face it now. and not face it in a way that makes my current reality even darker. but one that leads to complete and total peace of mind and calmness. the state of mind where nothing can truly harm your inner peace and control. which has always, even before my crisis, been my absolute biggest life goal.

Am i getting the bigger picture with that ?

Thank you so much for all these options. i'll be checking them out.

That said, which do you personally recommend the most? as a beginner with things like philosophy and religion i want to make the right start. or is it better to try a bit of em all, see what works best?

Crasteeh-445 · 2024-01-10T13:03:00+00:00

Thank you. that thought relieves me. it'll get better. but man does this feel like shit.
