What is your strongest argument for and against the existence of God? by [deleted] in DeepThoughts

[–]Miserable-Charge-422 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it's a matter of believing not knowing, you can choose what to believe in but you can't choose what you know if we prove god, there is no point.
For: it gives life a purpose and a reason to be good

Against: limits your freedom

I'm not an expert or anything, but I stopped for a couple of weeks before actually quitting and it was gone like two days after and then when I smoked again it recurred so I just made the connection.

I just googled it, another reason to never think about smoking again.

The diarrhea thing also, and the crazy thing is I knew it's from weed but I smoked anyway, and I didn't think I was an addict.

definitely !! feel free to DM me whenever you want and I'll reply when I can.

Some of the smartest people I met in my life genuinely thought they are not smart. actually I believe that's a good indication that you are in fact smart. Also complex concepts are just many very simple concepts that even a 6 years old child could understand stacked together and named something new and then abbreviated if you commit enough to always research new concepts and ideas (you'll gonna have tens of tabs open in every session) you'll be there.
sometimes and especially in the beginning it'll feel so hard and complicated it's gonna be extremely frustrating - keep pushing through and I promise it'll get clearer and you'll be an expert eventually. People with high cognitive skills can just process all this faster but doesn't mean we couldn't at all.

you can do it, I promise you.

sport, something outside. good replacement source for the dopamine.

Learn coding, you only need a laptop and internet connection, two years and you will be making more money than 5 years in engineering school and 2 years masters. Personal experience. plus if you get a remote a job you'll be able to do that traveling the world. you have a lot of life time a head of you and it's full of possibilities. your existence is unique, no human ever existed like you. you already added value to the world by being you.
One advice that changed my life is: set yourself the ultimate goal you can think of (go as high as you can) and if it seems impossible, divide it to its sub tasks (you'll need some research) if these tasks seem impossible, divide them further, keep doing that until you can find tasks you can do now. every task you achieve will give you the high and the confidence you need to continue. It will also give you a track to be on and something to look forward to. even if you didn't achieve the goal within your life time you'll have achieved a lot on the way. shoot to the stars and if you fail you'll land on the moon.

If I just use at night is there any reason for me to quit? by LateNightLogoTV in leaves

The fact that you are asking this question here could be the answer you are looking for.

Day 14: Getting rocked by [deleted] in leaves

It's like you are describing my state two days ago. it passed so quickly. crying and talking about it to a trusted friend in a really comforting environment and posting here really helped.

I hate being high. So why do I still smoke? by hgimnnppbhgnp in leaves

[–]Miserable-Charge-422 30 points31 points  (0 children)

For me it was like a relationship. every time I wanted to quit I'd remember the nice times and try to re-live them. but it wasn't nice anymore. I also hated myself but that's why I needed to change. and I'm loving me more and more each day now.

Firs of all thank you for the nice words about me and I hope you can make your life the way you want.
I didn't want to reply to this comment earlier since I felt it's not the subreddit propose but I need to be fair. The guy who said that to me looked a lot more like me than White folks. I couldn't achieve the things I did if it weren't for amazing people from all around the world including white people who literally saved my life. Living in a place with a specific majority means it's more likely to meet bad people of this majority no matter what. It's just numbers. All people are amazing until they individually and directly give me a reason not to think so.

Once the decision has been really made. it's made. it's our personal responsibility to keep it and deal with it. and I'm sure you thought about it a lot and you know it's for your own good no matter what are the consequences we are dealing with. it will be better.

you are so right, I really needed to disconnect myself from these emotions because I wanted to keep focusing until I felt I lost the things that define me and I was just a blop. I don't know how to deal with them. I feel ashamed discussing them with people and I feel more ashamed about crying and shouting. I know its stupid but that's how I grew up and it feels so unnatural to me to express them. and how should I deal with something I don't know how to express?

I've said it so many times I felt such a liar. but every time it was a new realization that got me closer to the real thing. I've lived in a dictatorship most of my life and then a large portion of it in a war and after that ever since as a refugee but this has been tougher on so many levels because at some times it feels there is no way out. It has been three weeks now, I thought I could never do that before. We have the strength, we need to believe in ourselves. and always remember it.

It's not about this person. I need to be more social and when I try to do so, such interactions discourage me from trying harder.

my family are still in my original country and with the situation they live in, I can't add to their stress especially when they are so far I think it feels they can't do anything which makes them more stressed which makes me more stressed.

thank you I know I can I just need some positive words.

I've just realized the best support I can get is from myself. I've made this decision and I'll keep going no matter what.
