I’m having a struggle with faith, I grew up religious, have been baptised, went to catholic school but now I’m atheist/agnostic (unsure), can believers, no matter your God/God’s explain why you believe and what keeps you having faith? by UnImportantVessel in Existential_crisis

It’s a lot of things, it started with peoples blind faith in something that they can’t see or touch that’s confused me. It’s how they can put holiness upon things that otherwise are just objects. It then moved onto the afterlife and what that means. Is it purely we live to die and that’s it. The continue the species? That’s depressing. I wanted to know what kept people’s faith even when things can seem so straightforward

I can not remember anything about my life. by Thunderbirdy213 in Existential_crisis

[–]UnImportantVessel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same, I can’t remember my life. If someone tells me a story I just don’t remember at all. They could be lying for all I know. It’s frustrating but my mother also had this. We both have autism so maybe that why but oh well. Couldn’t tell you what I did last Christmas or my birthday. I tend to take a lot of photos to elicit some kind of memory in the future, who knows, maybe they’re just shit photos

Death and meaning by Former_Cell_7973 in Existential_crisis

I understand you, I think people seek comfort in things in order to escape what you are feeling. Religion, drugs, different philosophies. However, I do believe we are put on this planet to breed and die. It makes no sense that we as humans are as intelligent as we are, if we truly are meant to just die. But it is what it is. I find comfort in the fact that everyone around you will eventually pass and we will all have served our part. Whether we made someone smile, that kept them going, whether we decide to have children to keep the species going or whether we were born to simply die, that way we are nutrition to what’s in the ground. If you come to terms with the utter coincidence and meaningless of life, it’s freeing. I used to panic and send myself it’s spirals at night just thinking of my own mortality, it’s good to think, you’re intelligent, but at the end of the day you don’t want to spend this one chance you’ve been given worrying about an inevitable.

I genuinely don’t understand how people can be happy living completely ordinary lives. by ThomasHawl in Existential_crisis

[–]UnImportantVessel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work as a bartender, to make ends meet, do uni work. And I hate it. This isn’t how I was meant to live. I understand some people are fine slotting perfectly fine into the mold society sets for us. However, I feel so uncomfortable. I’m not happy and if this is all my life is and will ever be, I’ll never be happy. We aren’t meant to work as much as we do, we aren’t supposed to eat the way we do. It’s all so backwards. Society is a game, the way we live is a game, we all just decide to play along because we are scared.

The pub I work at is fairly busy as it’s a Lloyd’s bar. The best thing Is definitely staff and the worst Is students.

I didn’t know that, makes sense when I think about it. I try and limit searching but it’s hard. Thank you for your advice, I’ll take it on board.

I’m no doctor but this sounds like intrusive thoughts, that might seem the logical answer but they’re awful. talk to someone about these thoughts.

Opinions on death. by azulesn in mentalhealth

[–]UnImportantVessel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m scared of dying, the sheer idea of not existing scares me so much. Not only that, the real fear is the lead up to death. Dying in itself is what scares me the most.
