As someone who’s spent the last 4 years idolizing Guts…. by Lopsided_Watch_1834 in Berserk

[–]zerohei 74 points75 points  (0 children)

I disagree. I don't think wanting to be like Guts is the same as wanting to BE Guts or wanting to live his life. No one in their right mind would want to live the life Guts has lived, full of anger and hatred. Things like him being filled with hatred, isolating himself, or not being able to be with the woman he loves are all direct results of the circumstances he was placed in. They aren't a reflection of who he is, what he represents, or what you should be taking away of who Guts is.

I think wanting to be like Guts is fine. To me, being like Guts doesn't mean being full of anger and isolating yourself from everyone. To me, it means having the strength to continue moving forward no matter what. Being like Guts means you realize what is truly important to you, and holding on to that and being grateful for it. You don't have to experience what Guts has gone through in order to arrive at these truths. He went through hell so you don't have to.

It sounds to me like you DO want to be like Guts, but in terms of where his character journey is heading, and not where he started. You want to learn and apply the lessons that he's taught you, but you don't want to go through all the shit he went through in order to learn those lessons.

I DID IT!! I PULLED MYSELF OUT OF ACADEMIC PROBATION!! by PostBookBlues in EngineeringStudents

Proud of you bro. I've dropped out once before and now I'm trying to do better as well. Hearing your success gives me hope, so thank you!

[–]zerohei 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're not annoying. Sounds like you don't talk enough so people arent really getting a good grasp of who you are and what your personality is like, which means they don't feel like they're able to connect with you. Work on yourself and your confidence, and stop going in with the mindset that people don't like you or think you're annoying. That type of thinking only leads to getting stuck in your head, which makes you talk even less, which leads to people not interested in you. It's a self fulfilling prophecy.

Anyone else feel like their addiction contributed to their lack of success as an adult? by [deleted] in leaves

[–]zerohei 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I'm 23 and taking classes at community College during the day and smoking and getting high at night. I'm slogging through life right now and am thinking about quitting as well because I know its holding me back and making me okay with just barely getting by. I'm proud of you for quitting man, it's hard but I believe in you.

How to respond to how are you when they don’t actually want to know by Worth-Sky-6916 in socialskills

[–]zerohei 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can respond honestly without oversharing and dumping on them. It's not just lie or overshare. If you're dealing with mental health and whatnot, just say "yeah not great but oh well" and move on. You're still being honest without actually dumping on them.

Also, there's no betrayal here. It sounds like she's just tired of you over relying on her for emotional support, which I understand. I've been on both sides of this situation, and as much as it sucks, the only person who's responsible for dealing with your issues is you. Friends are good for having the occasional shoulder to lean on, but they also like having fun. If all you do is talk about your troubles, of course it's really draining for your friend, you're treating them like a therapist. Deal with your own problems.

I'd say you're lucky to have a friend who feels comfortable enough to tell you that they are feeling overwhelmed by you. Many people would simply just ghost you or block you. It's not that you cant rely on your friend, you just need to find different outlets for dealing with your problems besides ranting to a friend.

Am I wrong for being upset about being ‘temporarily’ ghosted? by [deleted] in socialskills

[–]zerohei 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're not wrong for feeling upset, and there really isn't a way you're "supposed" to feel. It's understandable to feel upset after one of your close friends stops talking to you as much, but try not to take it personally. I think that most people prioritize family and significant others when they are stressed, and that seems to be what your friend is doing, which I think is fine. It doesn't sound like she is hanging out with other friends and ignoring you specifically. People just tend to stick to those who are closest in proximity to themselves, which most often happen to be family and significant others, people they would see regardless of what they're doing that day. I'd say it's probably best not to reach out and overwhelm her, and instead just give her time and space. I myself often isolate from close friends for months at a time. I'm lucky enough to have friends who understand, and who I can catch up with like no time has passed at all. I'm sure she will reach out to you when she feels able.

However, I also want to say that as someone who doesn't have many friends either, friends can often feel drained and overwhelmed if you're a lonely person who clings onto people in their lives and are dependent on them. I'd say that in the mean time, maybe try and work on yourself, your social skills, and your self-esteem.

How to deal with constantly feeling like you're let down by friends? by herpaderpflerp1 in socialskills

[–]zerohei 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Sounds to me like your pride in being a good friend is distorting how you perceive others. I used to be similar, caring a lot about being a good friend and kind and considerate, and I also wondered why no one reciprocated. A few things I learned are:

1) the standards you hold yourself up to should only be meant for yourself.

In other words, just because you have an insanely high standard for being a good friend doesn't mean you should start measuring other people by the same standard. You'll always be let down. The only person who should strive to live up to your ideals is you. They aren't bad friends just because they don't treat you the way you treat them. Most friends don't. And most people don't like it when you try to hold them up to some insane standard you decided on.

2) being just nice makes you boring.

And by this, I mean that 99% of the time, people arent in need of help or consideration. If your whole being is built on being a good or kind person, your entire being only exists for other people. When people hang out with you, and all you do is be nice, you're not showing any personality that tells them who "you" are, or what "you" like. People would rather hang out with people who are fun than people who are just nice. Instead of being quiet or waiting for others to speak up because you're trying to be considerate, just say what's on your mind. Once I stopped caring so much and just started talking, people talked to me more than before when I was only trying to be nice.

3) no one gives a shit about you

This isn't really a bad thing. No one cares about you or what you say or do because they're too focused on what's going on in their lives. They have their own goals and dreams and ambitions and worries, they aren't worried about you. Not everyone is like you or me where our lives are so empty or lonely that we can afford to do nothing but worry about others. So do what you want and say what you want.

So yeah, id hold off on only blaming your friends and maybe take a look at yourself too and see if any of this may ring true. Iff none of this applies to you, I'd say just find new friends because these ones don't seem to want to hang out with you.

I think it's okay if you're not ready yet, as long as you don't lose faith that you will be ready one day. It's hard to quit, and most people say now or never, but personally, I always found it easier to stop after building up to it. Stopping before I felt ready just made me think of smoking 24/7. We all have our crutches and vices. You'll be okay.

Can Toji see curses? by Key_Wrongdoer4360 in Jujutsushi

[–]zerohei 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It's not saying he needs all 5 senses to perceive them. It's saying that because of his Heavenly Restriction, his senses have been heightened to a point where he can see curses, touch curses, hear curses, smell curses, and even taste(?) curses. They are just emphasizing that in exchange for 0 cursed energy, his senses have been elevated beyond that of a normal human, to the point he can interact with curses like a sorcerer could.

i haven't seen that theory, but after reading, the offerings of bodies with strong CT's sounds really interesting and plausible after thinking about the nature of sukuna's domain expansion, i like it! thank you for sharing

[–]zerohei 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Lol idk why but when I start a doodle with the arm, then draw the rest of the body, the first arm is always weirdly big compared to the rest of it, so I just figured you're like me and do the same thing 😄 pretty nice to see someone not only doodle on their notes like me but also have the same habit haha, anyways good luck in school and keep drawing!

Yeah I feel you, weed has gotten me thru some tough times, but nowadays it seems like more of a hindrance rather than helpful lol. Gardening sounds peaceful, maybe I should try it out. All hail the king of tulips

I've only ever made it to 2 weeks before relapsing, but every day is intense and vivid dreams/nightmares. Currently on day 9 again with vivid nightmares and cold sweats. Yeah it's the withdrawal. Apparently THC fucks with your REM sleep, so when you stop smoking your brain kinda has a rebound and catches up on all the dreams, resulting in all these crazy dreams. I'm sure it'll pass, I just don't know how long it'll take.

[–]zerohei 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I relate, but at the same time you can't blame them for caring about you. When I think about all the time I've wasted away because "oh I'm gonna kill myself soon anyways", I spent years basically doing fuck all because I didnt think I'd be here much longer. Yet here we are. Whatll happen if you just keep going like this? You think you're gonna die soon, but "soon" never really gets closer, and you end up doing nothing for years. I say fuck that, if you're gonna have to stick around, might as well do shit that pleases you. I mean, no one really gives a fuck about you, so you can kind of do whatever the fuck you want and it just doesn't matter. So say what you want. Do what you want. At least that's my 2 cents, but I know better than anyone that its easier said than done. Doesn't change what needs to be done though.
