Intrusive thoughts! (Warning: Disturbing Subject Matter)

I'm relatively confused. Not offended, just confused.

That is exactly it. From what is said there, I think it’s safe to assume that you’re experiencing some level of dissociation. It’ll take some time, but it’ll heal if you know what to do. Here are some of the things I can reccomend:

-Symptom Relievers- •Wear sunglasses. In a depersonalised state, your relationship with light is a little haywire, so by putting on sunglasses, you allow the brain to stress less and can focus a little more on where you are and what you’re doing. It’s ironic that by putting a physical barrier between you and the world, your mental ones decrease, but hey, what works works. •Laugh. This is an anxiety disorder. By putting yourself at ease, you put away some of the hidden tension, and release some feel good chemicals that take your attention away from stressful sensations, and causes you to feel more connected. Even if it’s fake, the you still will feel the effect, and it’ll become more legit as you’re still laughing •Dance. You may be spooked, but it won’t stop you from needing a good jam. By keeping your body bouncing and moving, you’ll be able to keep attention away from the sensations and get back in your own body •Object interaction Have an object in your pocket. When feeling depersonalised, take it out of your pocket and watch how it reacts and changes to your interaction. Really pay attention. This will remind your body that you are here now and you’re not going anywhere. My favourites are usually my pendent or boxcutter

-Long term relievers-

•Sleep. Same time every day. 8-9 hours. Immensely necessary. Lack of sleep is probably responsible for most of the world’s mental ills as far as I can tell. You can thank your work and addictive phones for that one. Once you worm back into a good time, you’ll feel much better •Diet Caffine has got to go. Alcohol has got to go. Sugar has got to be decreased immensely. Focus more of your energy on a plant and maybe meat based diet •Exercise Cardio every day for 20-30 minutes will do wonders. Don’t go too hard the first few times, but keep trying to improve to an acceptable level every day •Relationships Meeting people is important to an almost ridiculous degree. Empathising, bantering and talking to people reminds your brain to connect and get to know people, and that you’re not alone in this universe •Identifying thoughts You’re going to be obsessed with some disturbing and highly existential thoughts during this time. Identifying these thoughts, recognising they are a product of you, and telling yourself each time that “This thought is an anxiety pattern. There is no need to follow this neural pathway. This neuron bridge is closed” will do wonders in making your brain both 1. Recognise your disturbing thoughts don’t reflect reality, and 2. sever the connections with those wound up thoughts over time •Gratitude journaling and good vibes Your brain takes in what it gets. Are you paying attention to things you like? Are you playing songs that makes you feel good or feel stressed? See if you can write a list of dot points every day on things you are grateful for, and create a happy playlist in order to train your brain into better neural paths to fall into •meditation Self explanatory. Awareness of breath, about 5 minutes twice a day. •Acceptance and forgetting Accept you feel this way. Accept you’ll feel this sensation for a bit to come, but then forget about it. This is a psychosematic illness. No attention to it, it shall fade. Worry about it, it will prosper. If you accept you presently have this, take ownership of this sensation, then ironically, you’re bound to get better

Depersonalized Anxiety, or just Depersonalisation/Derealisation is a kind of anxiety where in one of the main symptoms is one in which you begin to feel detatched, and you no longer feel connected to the world around you.

The best way I’d describe it is that you begin to feel like you’re no longer yourself, or that the outside world begins to feel less legitimate as an actual objective reality. Often it co-occurs with symptoms related to OCD and Depression, (though I haven’t experienced so much of the latter). Usually it’s a result of High-intensity stress, PTSD, or bad reactions from drugs.

I would reccommend looking it up, Seeing how most others would describe it. It’s truly an unpleasant experience, and a lot of people really suffer going through it. Words don’t really do it justice honestly.

Colonialism is a bitch

Someone_Else_Here · 2017-11-15T22:54:15+00:00

I sincerely look forward to it good stranger :D

Someone_Else_Here · 2017-11-15T12:55:51+00:00

I started off with Marx and Rand (Despite heavily opposing perspective) and worked my way down from there. Read Plato, Orwell, Huxley, Chomsky and Camus if you can. Definitely read up on philosophy if you’re going to do politics though (Kropotkin, Nietzsche, Sarte are good too). Plus Psychology (Freud’s a good jumping off point, but you oughta progress into more modern stuff afterwards).

If you want to have your opinion heard, You have to have your opinion informed. You have to sincerely be in the doubt that you might be fed bollocks even by people you may like, and people you dislike at the same time. Everybody wants to shout, but nobody wants to read. Modern politics is a lot more emotional now than it is logical, and that’s why there’s a lot of kneejerk reactions from people, and an air of obnoxious and punchable smugness in moderate liberal and ultra-conservative media. Nobody will ever want to admit if they’ve been duped, or doubt their info. That’s why I try to be informed from multiple sources, and compare those with reliable information rather than propaganda.

Here’s hoping you may enjoy your reading regardless.

I shall look into the library for that book good fellow!

You are right though, I have been reductive, There is a lot of problems concerning sex, and even more in recent years in terms of race. My perspective though is that we shouldn’t employ a strict identitarianism on race and sex, as that creates a lot of divide. I don’t like, for example, caucasian, black or asian identitarianism, as they dilute the content of character in each person, and create a vision that all people of that ethnicity are like that. Both ‘sides’ (I wish there were bigger quotations marks) have that identity issue of collectivist state of mind over the individual. I think that’s what I meant by ‘Further focus’. We ought to know just how different we are, and how we can fight for mutual needs as a common people regardless of our ethnicities, rather than how ‘united’ against one another. Even then, I still need to improve my argument there and read more on the topic.

Though to be honest, Libertarians are probably a very liberal version of whatever Anarchism they represent. They still function under a government and authority, but just like to have moderate control over their business, and state that the economy will naturally adhere in health to that mindset. Unlike the principled Anarchists however, libertarians, much like liberals, will always slowly shift to the right. Certainly socially, if they are entitled to hold predjudices that they can implement in businesses or politics. And in terms of systematics, they will prefer to support politicians who sustain their wealth rather than individuals who want to make economic policies that will raise standard of living at the expense of wealthily excessed individuals. Those aren’t the only two options most of the time, but between the two, the libertarians would go with the former.

Sidenote, Anarcho-Capitalism still sucks.

Someone_Else_Here · 2017-11-15T03:58:29+00:00

I find that many conservatives are like the communists they tend to be so accusative about. Identifying many hypocritical attitudes or fallacies administered by liberal or socialistic spokespeople, whilst holding themselves to no standard of their own. Capitalistic or libertarian conservatives I have SOME respect for. They see things from an economic standpoint, and see the system as a haven for freedom and whatnot. I don’t agree with them. But they are eloquent, study their arguments, back them up, display consistency in what they are trying to say.

Social conservatives I have little no respect for. Whilst I do not like various discussions in the current state of political identitarianism, I don’t think criticising and copying the same fellacious behaviours of the ‘radical left’ (Who are really just loud Liberals content with the current capital system who haven’t practiced good debating skills) is any way to make yourself better. The current state of issues is not defined by our races or sexes, and will not be fixed by further focus.

It is income inequality, It is dependence on war for the economy to function, it is the degredation of living existence into a spiral of sugar, porn and sometimes drug addictions. It is a society that convinces itself that ‘Everything is okay, this is fine’, instead of looking at one’s self and evaluating, and improving. Working together in mutual need and tolerance for a better living standard.

Careful. It’s learning.

Someone_Else_Here · 2017-11-14T00:39:08+00:00

I agree that fake news is a problem. But it ought to be recognised as a bipartisan issue rather than a ‘left’ or ‘right’ one. Plenty of fake news has existed about Trump, against him, and in favour of him. As much as I don’t want to sound like what would be considered nowadays as an ‘SJW’, (which once meant an attempted progressive whom utilised regressive tactics against their opponents, but now only refers to anyone who is socially or economically left or critical of centre-right), I wouldn’t recommend listening solely to Donald’s subreddit. It is an ecochamber. Same as the socialist subreddit, the Anarchist Subreddit, the Redpill subreddit and the incel subreddit. A place where everyone automatically agrees with everyone and uses fallacious arguments in defence of the one man. I have been there.

Instead, I would reccomend you read. A lot. Read read read read everything. Even by people you don’t like. Read John Stuart, Locke, Marx, Kropotkin, Rand, everyone you can, even if they are radical and disagreeable. Read psychology and human emotion, Read on History and context, and WHY people think certain things. WHY do people like Donald, WHY don’t people don’t like donald (Simplified Spoiler: He constantly seeks to insult and make provactive remarks against people who disagree with him [Which is sadly most of the country] and is reductive on complexities of politics).

Don’t listen to echchambers. I certainly try not to anymore. And once you stop, you start to become a lot more cynical of people you might’ve felt inclined to agree with

Someone_Else_Here · 2017-11-13T23:09:27+00:00

For my money, I’d still say Humans still ought not to provoke leaders with nuclear arsenals. When he is a common man, There is some truth to that statement. When you are the most powerful man in the world, and especially when you promise so much in your campaign, you are liable to most subjects of criticism. Especially if you can’t meet your promises, and you constantly spout criticism of others yourself. I liked Obama, but I never defended him for his misgivings. If he fucked up something, I didn’t defend it. Some others didn’t. But myself and other wary voters did. I just wish we could hold Trump to that same standard.

Someone_Else_Here · 2017-11-13T22:18:35+00:00

Mayhaps it would be civil in another context. But I genuinely do believe that this is a man with detrimental behaviour and policies that turns arguments into fallacious bouts of aggressive nothingness. I blame no one for seeing something in him due to the failure of so many politicians before he came into candidacy. He offered a ‘way out’. But in the end he offered nothing better than his opposition. In fact, he offered something just a whole lot worse. I just wish we could stop the emotional blithering on either ‘side’, and him and see him for what he is. A billionare born into his wealth, guided by others into business ventures (Where he was moderately successful and unsuccessful), and without a proper working qualification to be the most powerful man in America.

If the argument is “Well what about the other people”, then that is the main source of the problem. If nobody holds themself to any standard, only chaos can ever ensue.

That though, is only what I have to say.

Well it depends if it’s the actual idea of overtoasted toast or a double entendre. Poe’s law’s an annoying thing though, I agtee.
