What do you mean the entire idea of relying on others for mental help is a carryover from when you were a kid? Is your mind not part of your body? Is absolutely any kind of emotional pain and suffering something trivial that you can fix yourself? If you break your leg or hurt yourself badly otherwise, do you also refuse medical attention because you can fix it yourself? Do not disregard the entire concept of mental assistance in itself like it's something made up and no kind of issue of this sort warrants help. Unless, of course, I got what you said wrong
>These systems are intended to keep you pacified so you don't go out and kill other people as a coping mechanism for feeling bad. Drugs and psuedo-psychotherapy fulfill that duty, so there's no need or want for the workers in this system to put i
This might be true, I'm not refuting this in it's entirety. But see, you admit that there's also real, helpful psychotherapy out there if you call the bad kind pseudo-therapy. If there's the pseudo kind, there must be the helpful type too

Because it's what babies and distressed children do as a result of them not having the cognitive abilities to rationalize why they're feeling bad, then form solutions to the problems or conclude that such sadness is inappropriate to feel at the given situation.
>Is absolutely any kind of emotional pain and suffering something trivial that you can fix yourself?
Yep! How, pray tell, can you even conceive of a way in which anyone [b[BESIDES[/b] yourself can possibly heal your own mental anguish? Nobody has access to your inner thoughts, nor a way to measure the the scope and unique attributes of what you're feeling beyond what you can only vaguely explain through simple language. Your mental state is a machine that nobody - not even you - has the blueprints to, but you alone at least have the ability to look under the hood and try to deduce though reasoning what might be wrong with it.
>If you break your leg or hurt yourself badly otherwise, do you also refuse medical attention because you can fix it yourself?
Bad comparison; everybodies' bones get damaged and heal the exact same way. Their state and progression is physically observable. I don't go to the doctor and describe with words the exact intricacies of the pain and suffering I'm feeling at the break, and then have him try to figure out a catered healing procedure for my particular unique variety of bonehurt. I get the same bandage as everyone else and it works.
>But see, you admit that there's also real, helpful psychotherapy out there if you call the bad kind pseudo-therapy
The "real" psychotherapy I'm referring to is the kind I described: that which comes from within. External psychoptherapy is pseudo-psychotherapy because it can only do one good thing, and that is to convince a man to use his own brain to sort his own issues out. Commercial psychotherapy can only work to defeat its own necessity. It can also fail to do this, and lead men in to believing that they aren't curable without them even being given the idea to introspect. So it either "works" by proxy or fails in a catastrophic way that incurs hopelessness on the man who becoPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

So if someone gets an infection and goes to the doctor to have their disease cured, they're a distressed child?
>Yep! How, pray tell, can you even conceive of a way in which anyone [b[BESIDES[/b] yourself can possibly heal your own mental anguish?
Uhh, by sharing it?
>Bad comparison; everybodies' bones get damaged and heal the exact same way.
Nah, it's not a bad comparison at all. And no, bones do not get shattered and require the exact same steps to heal, there are dozens of factors to consider. The same goes for any disease
>that which comes from within. External psychoptherapy is pseudo-psychotherapy
If all the answers to everything you've ever imagined always came from within, people wouldn't ever feel the need to share knowledge, share thoughts and emotions and help each other. You can't do everything on your own. Historically, if everyone did nothing but trust their inner monologue for everything, there would be no progress or civilization in any form, everyone would just be a total mute for 80 years, record no knowledge, achieve nothing groundbreaking and then die for nothing
>If the psychotherapist says stuff like "Don't worry, always remember happy day", and that cures the man
That's not what happens in psychotherapy. You can't even use that example for the purpose of a simplified comparison because it's not even remotely what happens during psychotherapy

i keep wondering if all fiction could be unhealthy for the brain. human life is so short, a day has so few hours. how can you take one or more of these hours and flee to a place that doesn't exist and disconnect from your own reality.

places that don't exist have begun to repell me. my own reality has so many projects i would like to attend to that i feel gridlocked by not knowing what to do first. desire for fiction might be nothing but pure idleness.

i assume i understand the impulse, though i could be mistaken. when i was a child and were forced to attend child prison (school), the idea of no longer being able to explore the world at my own pace and instead had to spend time with the violent conformist was completely depressing. have them judge my intelligence based on how hard i could force myself to care what they thought was important in their desperate attempt to turn me into a mindless soldier and stomp all my dreams and interests in the process.

i'd flee into video games and at least videogames are interactive. in a video game i can make decisions, in school i was but an inmate without agency. but in a movie about a super hero, there is no interaction, the poor fool who watches this is but the passive recipient of centralized propaganda. i don't see how someone would accept this premise and spend time on this.

it is not a waste of time. you have not felt the good stuff and try to sell me crumbs here.

>religion is a waste of time. your god is not real and does not exist.
a god might not exist but there are things the religions point towards, a way of being connected to everything around you that once you felt it you could never feel lonely, needy or down on your luck. and you have not found it so i will not accept any unqualified shit talk about it from you because it can only come from a place of ignorance.

>thus improvement of surroundings is impossible.
within pessimism (or how generic people like you call it "realitsm" tfu!)… within pessimism everything is impossible and you only focus on what can't happen but if you tried optimism, you could find small differences to make. you are merely limited by your proud ignorant unwillingness to leave the save shores of pessimism, where everything is shit and ever will be and no disappointment or false hope could ever touch you.

>nothing bad about consumerism
you make such ignorant and inflationary use of "nothing bad" that i have to conclude that you don't really question things too deeply. you take like 5 seconds, come up with something vaguely logical and call it a day and go back to watching power rangers.

OP why are you so invested in defending your own perspective while devaluating any other perspective? You know that to any sane person you appear as schizophrenic. Just work on your projects man, nobody cares or stops you, but the fact that you try to compare with others, praising your own way of living as the only correct one and delegitimize any other approach to life just makes you desperate and sad and an insane religious person.

Frankly that sounds like insane normie cope to me. If you just don't enjoy reading fiction that's fine. But at what point are you going to draw the distinction between what is worthwhile and real versus what isn't? Is drawing on paper vs drawing on a computer the same thing? One some kind of 'unhealthy disconnection' and the other the only 'true reality'? Or is the only thing that matters in the end the feelings of the artist flowing into their work and creating emotion in the person that experiences their work?
It sounds to me more like you are just stuck in some kind of self-imposed moral framework where you started making seemingly arbitrary distinctions between what is a worthwhile way to spend your time and what isn't. And from the way you are describing it, it sounds like exactly the kind of normiecattle self improoovment advice you'd expect from YouTube grifters and the like. At the end of the day you and only you can and should decide what is worth your time and what isn't. Human life is short, there's no point in feeling 'guilty' for reading fiction and enjoying it when you could be studying particle physics but be miserable.

just read the thread. this this would be abundantly clear if you did. i wonder if fiction in general could be dangerous to mental health; a source of mental unhealth even. i wonder if anyone here has valid opinions on this. i wasn't expecting much since dep is more of a place for people to vent frustration and scream at the world but i still have not given up that there might be people here who have genuine interest in the promotion of mental health and practice healthy habits, thus could offer valuable perspectives i have not considered. feel free to participate and offer anything but suspicion and hostility towards me.

>You know that to any sane person you appear as schizophrenic.
i understand you have the desire to present yourself as the speaker of sanity in front of me. that is contributing nothing to the thread. if thinking about this topic is so taboo, uncomfortable and threatening to you then why not agree with me that this is a topic that deserves some scrutiny and critical attention.

Not really hate but I'm often somewhat uncomfortable in it due to IBS and tension in my muscles. I'm a neurotic person so I guess that's what causes it for the most part but probably also having tried to exercise too much and neglecting stretching or other things that release tension instead of adding to it.

There is no meaning, doesn't matter what kind of society you're born into, life has no purpose.

 No.309823

Grain of sand level of reasoning. It's like saying "Life has no food" because the astral cosmic demigods haven't beamed food in to your stomach directly. But there is food; you just need to hunt and forage for it. As in, life's purpose is what you make of it. Go find purpose or make it for yourself. Whining and reducing yourself to a helpless gooey little grain of sandbaby isn't purpose.

The purpose you give to your life is not an objective purpose though, it's rather a belief system, a faith. I'm speaking pragmatically, we're not born because we have to achieve something, we're born because our parents had sex. Then you can delude yourself as much as you want.

>>309824
The real delusion is believing that it counts as a valid argument to diminish the validity of the very nature of man with the pragmatics and semantics of words and concepts of which the meaning isn't up for debate. There is no need for an "objective purpose" because the meaning behind the word "purpose" as it applies to conscious human beings' way of life is defined by something which is decided willingly by the beholder. To use the lack of "objective purpose" as an emotional outlet is no different than lamenting that there's no such thing as "dry water"

So there is no purpose as it is merely the result of subjective feeling. It's like talking about god, everyone has its own, but none truly exist.

It is normal. To take advantage of and to be taken advantage of is akin to inhaling and exhaling. Those who allow themselves only to exhale will be empty and tired. Those who only inhale will be full of hot air. It is important to balance being on the giving and receiving end of advantageous gestures.

I try and try like I really do to be a wizard but unfortunately keep heading into becoming a crab. As someone who can't afford to NEET and will just die on the side of the street if I do so, I have to unfortunately go out into the real world and try to get a job and maintain a "social life".

And that is the worst part about it, I simply don't get it, a friend of mine wanted to meet another friend and he wanted me to go to club with me, now why did I agree? Because I wanted a referral for a job. Apart from that clubs in my country are horrendous for sub-3 men like me because they don't let people like me enter because of "dress code" when in reality you look ugly, short, singly, and the whole nine yards.

I got a referral so that's a good thing if it materialises into a job. But what I saw in club is not something that I have not known but to see it happen it still caught me like a deer in the headlights, basically I knew that this friend of friend is going to be a piece of shit because he is a club-goer.

But when I saw him literally just go up to a bitch and started making out with her continuously then going to the toiled and then coming back, and then actually showing me his Instagram and Snapchat about fucking a succubus 5 times one day, and fucking 10 different succubi in 10 days and sharing nudes on Telegram by starting out with the message "New Pussy around my Dick.".

God bless him for giving me the referral which probably won't materialise into a job but for some reason I wish I never met him, I saw a weird kind of primal expression on the faces of succubi, the man was 6'4 and had a chiseled face. And when I came back home I swear to god, I couldn't drive the car straight. Like I was about to crash 3 times, not because I was driving fast, but I was so pissed and my mind was just thinking about like what the fuck? I had to struggle for every single ounce of thing in life, and there are guys like this who just do what? Fucking exist?

Honestly, at that point years of thinking "I am never going to think about cunts" and months of trying to be a fucking monk only to enter a state of ragebait, I swear to god, when I returned in the night I was awake for a total of 48 hours just raging like a mad man and screaming into the damn mattress. Like what the fuck? How in the blue hell is it so easy for these kind of people? And this guy has cheated on every single cunt who was his GF. And has fucked over 40 succubi litePost too long.

I've wasted so many years of my life. And right now I work a shit job that requires way too much work for the low pay. I dont really have an credentials especially for all the jobs in my area that are like 99% senior analyst bullshit that I could probably never lie good enough to get into

I've heard of so many other guys with comfy jobs like night watchman or dudes who somehow keep getting vibecoding gigs from home even if they dont know how to code.

How do you go about this? I'm still a mage in my early 20s. Never got any formal education or anything. As my life is now I could probably rot away years upon years away miserably in the blink of an eye. I already have done nothing for the last decade. I even bought a gun to check out if all hope is lost

interesting that your impression of you gurus is just 100% about presentation and emotions and 0% about the substance that they are trying to advocate for.

>Life is just fucked now for anybody not in the top percentages

it is not. while there are plenty of fucked up parts, you are a fool for not trying to get in contact with the good parts: access to tools has never been better in human history. i go to the supermarket and for the price of what one cup of coffee and a piece of cake will cost you in the bakery you can get a massive wrench or a screw driver set or a saw or a drill or a set of files. if you are dot-it-yourself minded then this time is amazing and i can not understand any poor person who is so stupid as to let himself be mesmerized by consumerism porn (advertisement) into wanting everything pre-built. that is completely the wrong approach. don't buy pre-build, YOU BUILD. you can build your own empire out of other people's trash but you are too busy crying because you want social status, which isn't real.

Finally watched Alien: Romulus. But before watching it, I went back and watched all the Alien movies. I'm a huge fan of the original and can pretty much quote the entire thing from memory. It took me a week to watch them all. Here are my unsolicited opinions on each.

Alien (1979) — Almost a perfect horror film imo. The plot is nothing to write home about, but the set design, the alien design, and the atmosphere are perfect. It's one of the most hauntingly beautiful labyrinths to ever grace the silver screen. The amount of detail in every inch of the Nostromo and LV-426 is amazing. The idea of having blue-collar characters made the whole thing work. One of my favorite movies of all time.

Aliens (1986) — A generally fun, competently made, but ultimately dumb blockbuster movie. Compared to the original, it's a downgrade on every level. The characters are flat, samey, and uninteresting. Obvious bad guy doing bad guy things. The design of the ship and interiors is functional, but not nearly as beautiful or interesting as in the first movie. It's not a bad movie, but it pales in comparison to the original. The "perfect organism" is also shown to be completely pathetic, stupid, squishy things.

Alien 3 (1992) — If Aliens is a competently made movie with boring ideas, Alien 3 is a movie with some good ideas but clunky execution. The characters are interesting for the most part, and the dialogue is way better compared to the second movie, but it's mostly the formula of the first movie: a monster killing the cast one by one while everybody else runs around inside a sci-fi labyrinth in despair. It doesn't really add anything to the universe either. Still, it has some cool ideas in there.

Alien Resurrection (1997) — Awful, shitty characters that have nothing interesting to say. Ripley is basically a new character played by the same actor, and the new character is shit. It's full of goofy moments and idiotic plot points that make no sense. The special effects and set design are mostly OK, but the dialogue and plot are garbage. Characters have to constantly drop exposition dumps just to make sense of whatever is going on. The only interesting character in there is Gediman.

I have seen the first hellraiser yesterday, great movie,

The second in the other hand…
The first 1/5 is really good but the rest feels like a parody or a spy kids movie, is so bad that it breaks the inmersion a lot of times

The saga have 8 more movies and acording to people these 2 are the best ones…

i'm thinking about all those graduates i've seen when i was in college, and what i remember is that all of the basically suffered. maybe it's just that i only paid attention to them, but it's almost like not suffering before you turn 30 is physiologically impossible. you just suffer by definition, without reason. angst? anxiety? fear? burn out? i don't care. all i care about is that's it's utterly unbearable. i don't know what to do.

Hey wizzies, I feel the need to classify and understand myself but I'm having trouble with that.

I stay inside when possible but I regularly have to go to appointments (therapy, psychiatry). I am forced out of my shell by obligation. I isolate at home but keep a functional tether to the world via appointments. I do not go outside for fun, I have no IRL friends but some online. I have enough food at home to last me 3 weeks so I don't need to get groceries or accept deliveries. I am very scared when outside. I am NEETing and depend on rehabilitation money.

I am not a hikkimori, what am I?

I also have avoidant personality disorder. This is a good description, but I think it misses some things. Avoidant personality disorder and social anxiety are related and often coincide, but you can still have AVPD without any social anxiety at all. The avoidance stems from a desire to avoid traumatic rejection. Even if you are not anxious at all in interactions you can still have AVPD because you avoid people due to not wanting to get rejected by them. It particularly comes down to wanting to avoid any sort of actual relationship with a person. Random normies that you just interact with at a store or something are usually just subject to social anxiety, but social anxiety is treatable. I know because I tried hard and managed to make a good deal of progress. I still have social anxiety but it's a lot less than it used to be. Avoidance still just as bad though. I think it stems from a feeling that deep down I am unlikable so the more someone comes to know me, the worse things will be for me (as understood by the crazy part of my brain). This triggers a desire to avoid people and it gets stronger the more time I spend with them.

A slightly unusual hobby for a wizardly man, but I've always had an attraction to it.

What I like about it is the extremely large variety of tricks that can be learned. It's like the Path of Exile skill tree in the sense you can pick a direction and learn that way. You can build up your foundations, or you can go the straight and narrow all the way to learning your favorite trick. The large variety of tricks also mean there are a ton of easier ones to learn, and learning these tricks provides such a strong feeling of accomplishment.

Cruising is very nice too, I intent to get a bigger old school board with soft(?) wheels for nice and easy transport.

The art on skateboards is also quite nice, there's something for everyone. Also you can buy blanks and draw on it yourself. I think the level of creativity in all aspects of this hobby is so amazing.

All things skating related welcomed, I'll try my best to answer with great care to everyone.

Thank you for participating

skating has a lot of physical benefits that i had no idea about. had i known the positive impact it would have had, i would have done it in my 20s when i was busy doing dumb shit like going to university or working.

fun fact: after skating for a year or two, when you lose your balance while skating and are about to fall, time literally slows down so you can make a good decision in slow-motion and find out how to fall down in the exact way that hurts you the least.

it attracts a lot of unwanted female attention though so that could be a reason for wizards to be careful with it. while being on the skates i can outmaneuver everyone so it is both difficult to come near me and i can change direction way better then any female on foot. it does give my motions off the skates a certain elegance/grace/experience/refinement/maturity so just when i walk down the street unfortunately females are attracted the same way they would be to an experienced dancer.

it does feel amazing though when i just get to skate without females stalking me or an audience forming or photographers being cancerous. with all the unwanted attention i am getting i keep wondering why those people who want to stare don't live themselves a little instead of wanting to watch the other people live a life…

labels dont help, they hinder. they are used by people to dismiss the problem and abandon responsibility, which likely is the only path to healing. you don't have depression, you have something way more specific, personal and complicated. when you call it depression, you let yourself be seduced by the diagnostic language; it's often hollow promises and the undignified preemptive certainty they hide behind. i say do the oposite: describe your condition as crude, unhinged, precise and accessible to others as you can. your name about your condition should be so easy to understand that when you tell it to someone who has no idea about it, understands it the first time you mention it without having to ask fir details.

>so i have a very specific, personal kind or depression, that is actually a bit comorbid with my overall inclination to being anxious?

i can never know what you have because i can't feel what you feel so what could my opinion possibly be worth. nothing. i can look at your approach though. when you tell me with your chest sticking out all proud and identified: "i have depression!" then i don't know how that feels like, that tells me nothing. the term is like a shotgun and hits everything, you want something that only hits what you actually have precisely. you know the term is too much of a blanket term to be useful by the fact that you would receive 100 different answers if you asked 100 depressed people about their condition and not the same answer 100 times.

calling it comorbid and anxiety is at least a step in the right direction but you are once again committing what i in my pieced-together understanding of mental health believe to be a mistake: you just repeat medical labels as if they meant anything. what i believe to be way better would be to invent/sculpt/compose/craft/sketch a way to describe what is actually going on so that when a kid in the park asks you what is wrong with you, you could tell it in a way that makes sense to the kid and then the kid in the park might have a way better idea on what to do about it then any doctor ever because the kid did not have it's humanity pranked, whipped and tortured out of it in medschool.

most importantly though, bothering to be precise about it will give you better ideas on what to try to make things better and the most healing the most helping will be what you do to yourself, not what will be done onto you by others. don't wait to be rescued, nobody is coming, you do the rescuing.

Games you played that were not as good as the mainstream masses/reviewers would had you believe.
Also games that were recommended by "patricians", that turned out to just be games that cater to their autistic taste.

While I didn't find the gameplay or aesthetic of borderlands bad. The writing is so god damn cringy, it's like a boomer trying to write something he thinks modern teens like. After 2 hour I just couldn't stand it anymore. Gearbox were veterans and they had the backing of 2K a major publisher, this was the best writer they could get?
The deigns of banished isn't bad. It just that it felt like doing homework instead of playing a fun game. Many hours of planning, trail and error. Only an autist could think about spending the weekend for this.

I was never really on board with open world games because of what you've described.

attached is a game that is UNDERrated, but its open world done right. A lot of games like shoving a morality system, but this is one of the few games left that encourages you to act like an asshole, which I think is essential if you want to truly enjoy an open world game.

Part of it is location, Americans especially were quick to kick kids out at 18. I was willing to work hard but had no desire to level up at work or be a community leader. My parents screwed up by kicking us all out of the house: they have a son that won't be hosting Christmas or thanksgiving feasts for the extended family because I don't believe in that lifestyle.

True, plus it's the time period and economic situation. What often times get touted as a "independence" or "growing up" is just being fortunate enough to live in a time and place where you actually have the opportunity to go off and live on your own (often times with a helping of the right family situation i.e. daddy hooking you up with a nice job, so you can actually afford to move out).
Sometimes I see people brag and look down at people who still live with their parents at an age that's not socially acceptable, and it always pisses me off because these "independent" people would have been in exactly the same situation had their lot in life been slightly different.

I'm soon to be 30 but I feel like I got stuck at 20yo. Part of it is certainly the covid years that were basically just limbo where nothing moved forward and I stayed inside only being enrolled in college without actually studying or taking exams. Now I'm starting trainee program that is meant for 16-17 year olds and I will be a decade older than almost all of them. I flunked out of college and it's impossible to get a job without any kind of certification so this is my only real option but it only reinforces this feeling of being weirdly out of sync. I have moments where I realize that my youth has passed a decade ago, notice signs of aging in my parents and I get scared for a bit. But mostly I'm honestly fine with the way I'm living. I'll be happy to work my basic job and play video games with the few friends I have left, living at home and spending time with my parents while they're still in good health.

Are there any wizards who are uncomfortable when there is a succubus? even around female family members. when there's men and succubi in the same room and I'm here, I try not to look at the succubus's body but my brain can't. it puts me in very uncomfortable situation for me and for other people around because I know they know and they know I know. whenever it happens, I want to kill myself. must be because I'm a virgin and a pervert. It kills me for real. I can feel the tense and feel the men/man of the group/family wanting to beat the shit out of me or talk and give hints. I wish I wasn't a pervert or a creep or a weirdo.
please help a wizard who's in big trouble. I wish to never exist, I'll say it again but it is really that: it fucking kills me inside so bad. I'm so scared

Are you actually autistic, though? You can’t resist looking at their bodies because your sexual attraction to them is just that powerful. Being driven by primitive instincts is a very normie-esque thing. Your wizard nature is just preventing you from having the necessary charisma and looks to act on these desires.

Uncomfortable yes but not in the way you are. I did have a similar thing for a while where I would avert my eyes from succubi out on the street because I had internalized the messaging that succubi think most men are ugly creeps and I didn't want to get in trouble. Nowadays I can look at passersby. Not staring or leering obviously just passing glances that happen more subconsciously than anything else, then looking at something else.
Interacting with succubi is a different story. Even though it's just cashiers, service workers or coworkers or whatever where there's a predetermined social script to follow I often get uneasy, especially when they're attractive. I wouldn't even say that I yearn for female companionship or anything but I guess it's just a biological instinct that reminds me I'm "failing at life" because of my lack of sex or contact with succubi outside of professional situations.

My taste might come off as really generic, but after reading grim manga for years I have come to enjoy light hearted shonem like kagurabachi and dandadan.

I firmly enjoyed the purity culture in dandadan, with emphasis it puts on virginity. It made me happy, many series would shy away from placing that moral weight. Kagura bachi was a nice experience, it's a shame it will never reach popularity demon slayer did, despite actually being decently written.

I enjoy dandadan because it has yokai and Shinto faith integrated in it quite well. I am neutral on sci fi element, but I have loved yokai stories since my childhood. Truly enjoyable.
