I keep starring at succubi when I'm in public places (in the train for example) like a pervert. the thing is I can't help myself but look at the beautiful succubi or turn head to every corner to see if there is a beautiful succubus to stare at. the problem is I want to break this habit because first, succubi aren't worth it, secondly I look lile a perv, thirdly I don't want to get in trouble. I want to ask archmages how do you avoid looking at succubi?
>just don't stare at them
I just can't, it's not that easy to stop just starring. I cat help myself because I'm like attracted (my eyes are) like a magnet.
how do you do my fellows to stop looking at succubi that use the power of their hot body to lure men to become a pervert?

In normieland there's a timer - you get 1.5 seconds to admire if you're an 8, 9, 10 yourself then you have to ask her out. If you're a 5,6, 7 you have .8 seconds to glance then keep walking. If you're a sub 5 you have .2 seconds and it better have been an accident like you're actually looking for a trashcan or bathroom or something :D.

The Roman Empire was the center of the world back then, and there was nothing like the art including paintings produced there in the entire world. Despite this nearly all has been lost to history and the surviving works are mostly wall paintings.
A similar situation exists for the written works, most books and letters have been lost forever.
There was no civilisation on the same level in the entire world with Ancient China coming in second place.

Yeah I am sure the Japanese would hate me if I had to deal with them. I already have problem socializing with people in my own culture, it's going to be a lot worse in an anal-retentive autistic culture like the Japanese who'd get mad if you forgot to use the correct polite verb forms or if they found out you pirated SNES games. It doesn't affect my interests much though. I can continue immersing myself in Japanese media and learning Japanese without actually having to deal with Japanese people. They're mostly normgroids like people everywhere, yes including the otakus that made your fanservice lolicon manga, they're normgroids with friends and usually married not to mention a lot of them are succubi. Feels kind of weird consuming media from a culture where the people would hate me but ehh, I don't meet people, it makes no difference even if they're super welcoming.

The day of Armageddon has inched towards me in just 2 hours. I completed a worthless degree in IT, by completed, I mean gave the final exams of the final semester just 2 hours ago, and I returned home, which is in a third world country. And the results are as I expected, as a matter of fact, when I came back I could literally feel the tension inside my house mounting.

I was expecting one day or another, for this to happen but it's surreal how quickly it has happened, my parents had a massively heated argument with me, and honestly, it took me a few years back when my parents used to abuse the hell out of me, I can for some reason, literally feel the terror of abuse in the lower half of my spine and in my kidneys.

The question is obvious, which is what will I do next? Because I am about to graduate completely unemployed, in this little third world country, and of course the parents aren't happy, as it is in the nature of everyone maybe mine as well to be pissed seeing a man wake up at 9AM and ask for breakfast, and take it back to the Air Conditioned room, the resentment is off the charts for obvious reason of what my parents would consider "stealing" from them because I am not paying back in any meaningful labour, seems like I will have to wake up at 6AM in the morning tomorrow and not use Air Conditioner at all.

It was honestly, a massive argument, I just few hours ago got back to my house from a scorching 42C temperature and now I am being cooked internally. At this point, I have started to prepare for the worst, any day in "my" house could be my last, I am trying to gather all the IDs, gather all the documents for eventual kick, and a kick in a country like this is extremely close to death. Certainly slightly different from other countries where you can live in your car, given that in this country the car ownership rate is 8%. So there goes living in a Honda Fit out of the Window.

I must get a job, I have tried getting a job online, from microtasks, to annotation for OneForma, to trying to act like an agent for PornStars online, to chat on their behalf, and I have earned no more and no less than 0 in any currency of this planet. The jig is coming to an end. While I am not familiar with the thoughts of life in the Christian Theology because I wasn't born in a Christian Family, but my Judgement, rather Execution is near.

>As for not changing when going to other countries, I have heard (not sure how correctly) that the Indians born in the West do manage to break-free of these things, but as for the other Indians, I would say you're still getting the better ones in terms of behaviour, but I suspect old habits die hard, but I will say this I think just by the virtue of clearing the high requirements Western Countries have for immigration, I assume that we're not sending the worst, unless well some country has lacklustre requirements where you will undoubtedly get the rowdy ones.

The Punjab region recently scaled up the infrastructure required for a migration industry, and Canada is now genuinely getting Punjabis more representative of the average Punjabi, and by god they're not handling it. It's causing the Indians that came a generation before (the 90s and 00s) to chud the fuck out, it's other indians wanting to throw them out of the country. The votebank politics you mentioned above is spreading to the west in the form of the Khalistani separatist conflict. Luxon (The NZ PM) recently had to basically grovel to him and tell Modi that he'll do more to root out Khalistani separatist cells.

The United States still genuinely receives the cerebral cream of the crop. But for other western countries it's becoming a heightened source of tension.

I think a big part of the reason the Indians are so boldly offensive these days in Canada and Australia is that millions of them showed up during peak woke self-flagellation. There was the residential school self-hatred stuff getting blasted in media, BLM everywhere, gay pride shit everywhere year round, land acknowledgement stuff all the time, and so on. It probably made whites look like total cuck faggot losers who were ripe for exploitation and colonization. Perhaps they were too low IQ to realize that this stuff was all top-down astroturfed, and hardly anyone actually believed any of it.

What’s funny is that they’ve been so utterly obnoxious that it has soured westerners on all Great Replacement activities and turned everyone into chuds. The boiled frog gambit has failed, and the frog has awoken from his slumber. Our politicians are still total fags, but it’s a disaster for them.

>The post I deleted was genetic determinism. About how the peculiar nature of tropical monsoon based agriculture and managing irrigation channels selected for that sort of behavior historically. It was an elaborate explanation about how that explained caste based endogamy, the hierarchical abusive culture, the fatalism, and the callous indifference Indians typically have towards those outside of their immediate support circle.
Yeah, I mean that is a fair thing to say, although how much of it has truly seeped into the blood here is a bit hard to say (for me) to be honest, but yes, there have definitely been other dysgenic practices as well sometimes sponsored by other Dharmic Relgions which came from the likes of Gautam Buddha, Jains, where they took the best men of the country, it's warriors, and forced them to be monks and celibates. And drove Hinduism to the very end until Hinduism was forced to accept a million gods just to appease everyone, introduce dietary restrictions and disregard food from non-plant based sources to appease to the crowd going the route of other Dharmic Religions, probably that affected the Genetic Makeup as well, but then again I don't know much about genetics and they seem very complicated to me.

>>308100
Yeah I have heard this a lot from other people living in the West too, I don't really know what is the solution now, except to wait for them to die, because I doubt that their kids will want to have any connection with the subcontinent, but dare I say I don't know too much about what's going on outside India because I have never left the country so naturally I wasn't that interested in what's going on outside. Although I would say I doubt that your average Indian, not the one you meet on 4chan or reddit, has like real malice for whites, that I have to say isn't much of factor here. And of course I do remember reading that most of the immigrants in Canada are from Punjab as you said, and of course it's a long time joke in India about Punjabis going to foreign nations, which is funny cause Punjabis don't form that much of a population in India, but then again India is huge.

Honestly, don't worry, with Syria it was closer Europe. India is far away and Europe even the liberals and left are tightening the laces of the boot. So rest assured, I doubt that Europe will take 1 refugee from India from these sort of conditions. Besides you'd be surprised to know just how competent India is in terms of surveillance and intelligence gather and just how unmotivated your average Indian is.

>Jains, where they took the best men of the country, it's warriors, and forced them to be monks and celibates (…)
If anything this to me indicates that genetics aren't the sole determining factor in how society/behaviors get encoded. You have essentially the same race of people capable of embodying a broad spectrum of cultural values over the years. If everyone was a devout Jain India would probably look a lot different today. Maybe there is a genetic floor and ceiling as to which kinds of values any given race can adapt, I don't know. But genetically even the lazy, glutenous Western boomers here come from a lineage of warriors and savages who were lean, mean killing machines.
I'm by far not an expert but to me genetic/environmental mix seems to be most likely. And the environment in the sense of culture and society also is subject to selection pressures. So perhaps the current Indian culture is a result of being better adapted in some way to whatever pressures India was facing back then, only now it's become entirely self-defeating and a behavioral sink. I heard for example the perspective that these Jugaad-type behaviors that make everything worse on the whole might make sense if you are living under a system of imposed colonialism where it is your only way of not cooperating with the system without facing harsh punishment.
That is actually an interesting question - the guy who reads up on India said that colonialism was generally well accepted in India since it at least created a functioning order instead of the constant free-for-all that exists outside of it in normal Indian culture. Do you know anything about that?

What is everyones thoughts on leaving a suicide note? Is it necessary for closure for others? A way to get everything off your chest before you ack? Or just a waste of time?

I have been staring at my .60 cent retirement plan, and am not sure if I would just like to go out and just have everyone guessing. Or if its right to leave a note. Most of my family thinks I am useless or lazy. However they have no introspection on that they are the ones who raised me.

hopefully after i die i don't have to stay and watch my own funeral. i don't want "closure", i just want to get the heck out of here asap.

I have become increasingly depressed at the state of discourse about almost any subject. Look at the opinions of most people and discuss their reasoning with them; they do not really have reasons based on experience or logic. They are just saying things they think are normal to say. They imitate others. They understand the world through memes. Zero actual curiosity or critical thinking skills when it comes to discussion of politics/culture/history/science/art. Everyone just parrots what they think others think. They think in memes. Partly to fit in and achieve social acceptance and partly just monkey see monkey do like a child or animal.

Democracy is a failure because most people have no idea what they are voting for or what the consequences will be. They just follow the cultural memes. The internet has exacerbated this. Most people’s political views or views on the culture are just glorified SIX SEVEN repetitions - people have no good justification for any of the ideas they follow.

It might sound arrogant and supercilious to say these things. I worry that I am not that different and I just copy things sometimes by instinct. Makes me wonder if the self even fucking exists and we are just biological self replicating robots copying things.

Depressing. Enraging.

Temporarily unemployed, starting again in the fall. Had various IT gigs in the past, they were all terrible. The meetings, always feeling exposed because anyone can ping you at any time on Teams. Soulless open floor plan offices where you have to book a nondescript desk in advance. Commuting. Red tape. Social interaction with people who somehow seem really invested in the BS work we were doing. The absolute soullessness of it all really wore me down until there was almost nothing left.

Greedy subhumans is one thing, but another is normies on the rat race. As long as they keep competing for pussy, life will be shit for wageslaves. Maybe the crabs will collectively throw in the towel and give up on the hustle and grind. Life would be so much calmer and easier if normies stopped trying to outstatus one another. Life would be so much cheaper if we wageslaves didn't have to fund our employers and their succubi's luxuries. It's only a pipe dream though.

I was posting here 10+ years ago considering going homeless to avoid getting a job as my parents were forcing me to and nagging/yelling at me literally every single minute of the day. Empty boomer platitudes that made my blood boil. I remember making a thread where I named myself "The black wanderer" LOL. As a reference to Berserk, still remember one of you guys telling me that's a stupid name. I've been working for 9 years at the same job now and it really is hell, and my job is still better than anything else I can obtain. Waking up is so hard, I've become an alcoholic and that's the only way I can cope. I'm practically in a daze/meditation at work just to not rope myself. If I have to move or get fired for some reason I know for sure I'll never find a job as easy(putting that lightly). I worked at a factory for 2 weeks, I couldn't do it.

Landed a machinery maintenance job In a factory about a year ago.
Was incredibly hard at first and thought about quitting multiple times, somehow I managed to survive.

This shit is still hard to me as I'm not handy at all, and most of the time i don't know what the fuck I'm doing, specially now that I'm alone at my shift. Some days I don't know how to pass the time and others I don't even have time to eat. The only upside is that's a job in high demand (basically every company is short staffed because they literally can't find anyone), and once all the genX retire it's gonna be in even higher demand because very few millennials took this career path. I highly doubt Ai or thirdies will take this job.

I feel bad about being a shut in alcoholic loser that does nothing, but I've made several attempts to labour and actually do the normalfag thing and I've just seen the whole thing as just fucking absolutely loaded. A swindle almost.

The first example is the local chicken processing plant for the country. I did nightshift there for a month. 80% of the labour is filipino/indian/samoan migrants on temp visas and the other 20% are eccentric weirdos and mentally retarded people, and me (an eccentric weird). The job paid 20% more than I collected on NEETbux, and 10-15% when you accounted for driving to and from work, and within a week I was in chronic pain. Of course, if I had to do it to live, I'd do it, but paying quite literally minimum wage and so close to the NEETbux rate, I slinked off.

I just see local people either in jew daycare jobs, boomers living it large with their accumulated wealth, or the 20% of young people lucky enough to have a proper career, or they're completely checked out. There's one guy I went to school with in my school year, he was a complete normalfag. He's now stacking shelves at the supermarket and he looks on the verge of shooting up the place every time I walk past him. I just get this sense of complete resentment terror from him. I don't mean it as an exaggeration that like a third to half of my graduating class are having problems in life? Even some of the high earning ones are checked out.

It's a peculiar situation in my country where they provide you enough to live just rotting away, any full time job you get at the bottom level is basically the same as that, all the while they flood the country with migrant labour. Maybe I'm just a lazy spoiled cunt like the boomers say, but it does just seem rational to check out and collect NEETbux when the difference between the two is so similar. I checked the wages for orchid work, factory nightshift, and all the other physically brutal jobs, and have found they've flatlined since basically the 1990s. The more physically abusive jobs used to pay more, that's why people did them.

 No.308099

I cannot imagine something worse for your health than long term physical labour, it literally kills your flesh and bones, no wonder we let migrants do it because it's extremely consuming.
The best thing people like us can achieve is premium bux also known as full disability pension which in western countries varies from $800 to $2500.
I feel no shame from parasitizing a corrupt system that allows slavery.

only a 10% increase in pay for ALL the hours spent working, all the stress and general issues that come along with it. I swear people must NEETBUX as much as possible. If jobs were giving like 5x the money I'd happily show up. My used up old hag of an auntie makes MORE than I do being a welfare queen with 9 kids and I work 60 hours a week.

While having had no real money my entire life, I don't have any real hatred or bitterness about this, only this sense of meaninglessness and repulsion that society is based around this animal-like mode of living where you spend your existence gathering resources.

I am Neet in third world country, I really don't want to return to the call center I used to work from last year ;-; the town I live in went to hell too so virtually no local jobs either, I want to be a NEET all day every day but I am forced to work since I live in a third world country and NEETbucks don't exist here, I also can't afford nice things and hobbies so even NEETing is not really fun but a lesser evil compared to the cagie life to me, not to mention the wages are extremely bad, my former job paid less than 200 USDs a month and I had to work 6 days a week (most people in my country work 6 days a week).

Genuine question, if you're unable to get enough gibs to house yourself or find employment, then what is the point in living? I cannot think of a worse situation than what you just described. Why would you want to cling onto such a meaningless existence? At least as a NEET living with their parents or off the government you can live a hedonistic relaxed life, but constantly walking and living like that just sounds like torture. I'd rather be in prison because I feel liek that would be more stimulating than whatever you plan on doing.

Yeah New Zealand is in the process of pushing people off NEETbux now. We were in the Scandinavian box before but it seems we're being shifted to where Spain and Italy are.

There's genuinely a developing NEET crisis in the west, it's something like 20% of 18-24 year olds literally doing nothing now lol. Not even going to school/uni, just no work. The local government extrapolated the increase since Covid and seen that by the 2030s it'd completely collapse the system. What's more worrying for the government is that once a NEET, always a NEET seems to be the thing. It's a sticky habit.

Norms, notions and behaviors they have that annoys you.

>Never argue with your critics or openly dismiss them
Their blood seems to almost always boil when you openly disagree or argue back against their point of view. They seems to just expect you to just nod along and agree(even if it's dishonestly).
Even if they deliverer their criticism rudely they expect you to still be polite with them.
Been told that snarky responses to people's criticism like
>I don't care go fix it yourself if you have a problem with it!
>Rich coming from an amateur like you, I like to see you do better!
>Who cares about what you have to say? Shove it up your ass!
>If you don't like it then do something else!
Will just ensure no one will bother to be honest with you, if they see you do something that is bad/wrong they will keep their mouth shut or lie saying you're doing great and hope you sabotage for yourself.
For a while I bought this. However, it just lead to people daring to be more rude with me. Eventually lead me to snap and revert to my old behavior. Then people started to choose their words more carefully when they talk to me.
Most of the time their criticism isn't even constructive, it's just them wanting you to cater to their preferences. So far this "antisocial" behavior haven't cause me any harm.
This is just some bollocks normies made up, because they don't like when people disagree or argues with them. They just want to be "right" without any push back.

Not denying the neuroplasticity thing. The repetition thing is a must to learning anything, it's takes time but it's a natural part of the process. Most seems to think the repetition step is too painful and that's their biggest hindrance to learn new things.
There was a reason why your teacher forced you to repeat the multiplication table and the alphabet all the time in elementary. It was a chore but it made it stick with you for the rest of your life. I'm sure your grandma could make it second nature, if she did it daily for a while.

are you a fucking retard? repeating the multiplication table is one of the worst fucking wastes of time. not only they force you to rote memorize completely omitting the existence of mnemonics, you are force to rote memorize shit which you never get to use in practice. much like with everything else in school.
>it's takes time but it's a natural part of the process.
why don't we wait until you turn like maybe 20-25 years old then we will talk about neuroplasticity? because after some point repetition requires effort so immense that you're basically not capable of learning the new thing no matter how many times you try to approach it. that's just it. you're not gonna make it by simply repeating more times or putting more time into it (by the way after you turn 20 you don't have free time because you wageslave, but you don't know it yet of course). it's like you're never going to become an MMA champ simply because you don't have what it takes.

Now you're just lying, if someone ask you what 9*9 is, you already know it's 81, not because you calculated it. Because the answer have been ingrained in you by school.
What sort of method did your school teach you to quickly get the answer if not by memorization? Calculating 9*9 as 9+9+9+9+9+9+9+9+9 is 100% slower than have the student memorize the multiplication table by heart.
>you never get to use in practice
ofc you never had to multiply anything outside of school right?
>much like with everything else in school.
90% of everything school taught weren't useful to prepare people for life. Still their methods seems to work, you still remember useless knowledge like who Abraham Lincoln was.
>because after some point repetition requires effort so immense that you're basically not capable of learning the new thing no matter how many times you try to approach it
Okay so how do you explain all the 20-somthing adults who get their driver's license? Since according to you it's impossible for them to memorize all the road signs and traffic rules by heart.

When I was young I used to indulge in escapism by imagining a new life where everything goes right and I have no problems, but now when I think of it I simply see nothing. There is no possible path for things to go right, every single case and scenario would bring me to suffer.

I guess it's because I became more experienced and understood that everything has a counter-effect and that I was simply focusing on the things that happened to me. For example, I have very protective, obsessed and generally loser (in the normie sense) parents who were watching my every move and spoil me because to them I was the only thing that was validating their need to have a meaning. But even if I had paremts who let me do whatever I wanted, it still wouldn't have fixed my inner problems and all the change would have been swapping the surface problems for others.

At this point it's like a puzzle, trying to connect all the pieces in a way that everything would go smoothly. But even if I give myself endless liberty, like being born a billionaire with perfect health, I still can't solve it. In fact, I have come to the point of trying to change physical laws to see if it could work (not having to eat/sleep etc.) and I still can't do it. Existence is pain and pain is existence, it looks like. Truly, the perfect life is to never be born.

What do you guys think? Do you have an idea of a good life you could have been living if you rolled the dice the right way at birth?

I don't think that is possible in the body we inhabit.
Made a similar thread asking what good parents/family would even look like too. I just don't know what I'd want. I know what is wrong and what is bad.
So less bad? No bad?
Maybe.

The biggest issue is that any real image of a good life does not include me.
If it does not include me then why even bother with a hypothetical?
All the events that happened shaped me and my genetics (and later accumulated experience) determined my reactions to them.
So given that, any "good life" would not include me.

I've been trying to figure out a way to reach this too. It was prompted by another wizards post in some thread about us needing to embrace the "it's already over, you aren't part of the race anyways, just relax" mentality.
Again I'm paraphrasing from memory.
>endlessly competent, calm
For this all competence is sadly needed as you say. I've noted that a lot of the anxiety that has gone unnoticed by me, but not by my body is due to this.
I don't feel like I had any mastery over anything so if a problem might pop up, I knew I was unequipped to handle them.
Unfortunately a lot of things in this world can not be done solo (or I'm simply not able..), so I'm trying to focus more on the acceptance part as well.

Something like the life of Hirayama from the movie Perfect Days. Having an easy job where you don't need to interact with people too much, your own place and simple solitary hobbies like gaming or reading. Going for walks in nature in your free time and getting enough rest. You will never be able to avoid suffering in some way, that's just life unfortunately.
For me such a life isn't possible since those low-stress, solitary type jobs have been nearly extinct with the advent of automation and cheap tech. And even if I had one, it wouldn't be enough to cover cost of living here anyways. I think this particular fantasy is irreconcilable with the economic realities that the elites have imposed upon us.

My rooster that I've had for ten years, who I consider my best friend and love more than anyone else, died Wednesday night. He was my only friend. He lived in the house with me and was the only thing that would make me feel better when the rest of my life would weigh down on me. I would go hold him and the rest of life would disappear and that would be all that would matter. I keep forgetting now for a few moments, that I can't go see him and hold him anymore.

I have had depression for my whole life adolescence onward, and I was afraid even 5-6 years ago of this day and thought it would be unsurvivable, and now it's here, and I do want to die. I dont want to live in a world where he isn't here with me. The initial shock has worn off and it's sinking in that my best friend is gone, and I'm not going to see him again. My mother is the only other positive presence in my life, because she knew how much I love him. She has stage 4 cancer and it's still unclear if she's going to survive it or not. She's essentially the only reason why I have not shot myself already. She was never abusive or cruel to me, so I couldn't do that to her even though I don't want to live anymore.

Did you ever have an animal that meant this much to you? People are cruel and petty and small. If an animal loves you it's genuine, they dont have ulterior motives or social performance.

nhentai's lolicon tag is a really interesting case study which kind of rhymes with your point, and you kinda put the finger on a dormant idea I've had lingering for years now.

You have doujins with loli's getting raped, getting tentacle-raped, or being a tentacle monster in a human disguise, raping other humans WITH tentacles and on the other hand you have loli BEING the rapists, stepping on the MC's balls, sucking out his life essence or whatever. The most edgy, gory shit you can imagine.

But there is such an absurd lack wholesome mutual romance loli doujins out there, relative to the amount of the shock gore content above. A loli that loves her male love interest and a male love interest that loves her back, with tender handholding sex. The way I've understood it is that crabs and porn degenerates can get off on the shock factor of the doujins of the former type, and because it's so incredibly fetish-y and porn-y, there's less guilt because "I'm just a clown in a circus!"

But truly wholesome vanilla level is a step too far for any crab. The earnest reader that yearns for wholesome vanilla mutual romance between an adult man and loli is considered the most vile, putrid abomination of a human, because they have no veil of porn sickness they hide behind, they just appreciate the pristine beauty of the loli and have truly integrated 3DPD into their personal value structure. Society hates the pornsick gooner quite a bit. But they hate the enlightened 3DPD lolicon a thousand times more, and would like nothing more than to have him killed.

My mom is already LDAR'ing due to the debt and she's already lost one child, so I think either by suicide or stress she would die. My dad?

I've seen this discussed in many threads so I made a thread for it. Many wizzies had had their life destroyed by psychiatric medication be it SSRI's, antipsychotics, benzodiazepines or others. A psych ward stay tends to leave you worse off. Some people get abused in psychiatric institutions. Mentioning you are sad and thinking about suicide to a doctor or nurse can get you forcefully restrained and tranquilised.
I'm suicidal but I avoid any medical help precisely for this reason.

I've read lots into psych stuff this is a fun lecture
https://youtu.be/Af5RSk6Bx-Y

The same thing actually applies for medicine in generally to a degree tbh.

If you look into stuff on your own there is some value to be gotten from it, if you understand what psychiatric disorders are. (Loose collections of symptoms categorized so they can do research on what treatments help them)
No psych drugs are even expected to actually fix anything, they simply lower the metrics in the symptoms.

There are some therapeutic techniques that do have very good improvement rates for certain things in terms of modern psychology, you have to look them up for what specific things you might be diagnosed with though (don't trust it just because a psych told you it, figure it out on your own, ai is helpful.)

Apart from that I greatly prefer jungian depth psychology stuff but hard to find anyone for that probably have to do it on your own.

One of the key things I'm annoyed is never talked about is the idea of transference. It's a per-requisite for most psychological stuff to work in terms of therapy. Depth psychologists talked about it more explicitly, but modern ones talk about it but just more academically.

Basically the precondition for therapy to work is seeing yourself as inferior to the therapist and basically inflating the idea of the therapist and even divinizing them to a degree, this is what lets the therapeutic relationship function and if you aren't willing to do that it will not.
No one ever told me this but I would not have bothered with trying it if I did. In depth psychology they talk about it in terms of as a beginning stage, but one that has to be ended. (Jung specifically says at a certain point more analysis/therapy is harmful). Modern ones don't have that and instead keep people in this perpetual infantile state so they can drain them of money.

Honestly you are better of for the most part trying to write down as best you can your life story, all your psychiatric issues and ask an AI to analyze it, provide differential diagnosis of what it could be. Then look into how to distinguish between those, then when you fPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

I doubt this, studies often find no or negligable improvement rate in symptoms, most famously certain commonly used antidepressants actually increase suicide rates.

Rest of your post reads like "yeah it's all bullshit but there are a few nuggets here and there".

Your final advice is to diagnose and determine treatment yourself (with AI) which is specifically the role of the doctor or therapist and then seek help from the people who specifically fail to do this.

There is no way you can reasonably be expected to do all this to get help from the psych system, best to avoid it alltogether.

>>307932
The aim of the treatments is lowering particular metrics, those metrics may not include suicide rates. For things like depression in order to market it as a anti-depression drug you would find some "Depression" metric there are a ton of tests you can take, then they test you before and after treatment and if the metric is lower it "worked". It's not all metrics, it's literally just determining one specific measure like a depression inventor like pic rel.

The purpose of a shrink is not a singular thing. If you are confident to a degree in what your symptoms are associated with there are treatements that don't require a psych (meditation/exercise, etc) and ones that do. Group therapy, specific forms of one on one therapy (schema therapy, cbt) guided exposure stuff, etc.

It is better not to see shrinks as like people with authority or responsibility, but more as tools.
Doing your own exposure therapy for example is hard to do, having a person who is aware of how it works to guide you through it is helpful. If you are aware for your condition certain group therapy procedures results in good outcomes, you can find one in your city to do that.

Doctors should be viewed as tools to be used in treatments, not as competent authorities on their own. If you view them that way they are fine, you just can't offload your own responsibility on to them. If you want to do that as I said I'd suggest depth psychology as they actually deal with that transference concept more directly.

 No.308010

>>307969
This isn't at all how doctors and shinks present themselves and market their treatments. If you visit a shrink or mental hospital you are expected to be diagnosed by someone within the system. If you "diagnose yourself" and for example determine Xanax to be the best treatment you will be treated like an addict and your request for certain treatments will be denied.
Doctors also specifically present themselves as authorities and while some will put up "being used as tools" they will resist any approach you ask for which isn't in the treatment flowchart of the medical system already.
Psychiatric medication is typically explained to the patient as follows "take these pills and you'll feel better". They never warn about side effects or explain it only lowers certain metrics.
You can insist upon certain things to a certain extent, but once you don't follow the internal logic of the psych system you are kicked out.

Most anyone in anyone industry is retarded, and I was speaking less about medication I don't think medication is really a valuable treatment it's not even intended to "fix" anything it's merely to reduce symptoms.
But what you said applies to every procedural bureaucratic system. Academia, medicine in general, basically everything nowadays.
You just have to accept it's basically retarded as a system, the people in it are brainwashed, however that doesn't mean you can't extract value from it.
You obviously can't say it outright but yeah you do basically have to recognize these people will harm you if it's convenient so you have to be careful around them and just make sure you are being careful you are benefiting and not being harmed.

The system as a whole I would say is bad, but it still produces some valuable stuff and it's for many things the best we can do now anyway. People need to be able to engage with these sort of tyrannical systems without conforming to them. You choose to use the tool when it's good for you, you don't allow the tool to reshape you. The tool will try to reshape you if you let it.

If you can only play 15+ year old games on Linux, then why not just use an old version of Windows to play those old games and not deal with all the hoops and compatibility workarounds? It seems that to pirate Windows 7 and install a pirated game from a mounted ISO has fewer steps to follow than just getting many games to run on an already installed Linux distro. The performance, accuracy, and stability is most definitely going to be more stable on that Windows machine too.

love the ost

The only workaround I've ever needed to do was like go on proton db and run whatever console command they have listed (on really weird/old games). It's shockingly painless even when I'm using an nvidia gpu now. Using cachy os, I literally did 0 manual setup for nvidia gpu and didn't install any drivers it just all automatically worked.

Currently, I’ve watched quite a bit of NGE, I’m on episode four. I was wondering if I should finish it, or if it’s just overrated garbage. Please let me know. Thank you.

>It just seemed like it's trying too hard to be deep and profound, which I guess is why it's been so popular with normies as of late.
That's kind of precisely why it was popular in anime circles. But this shit has existed for over 20 years, why is it suddenly "cool" now? I KNOW if I tried to show this to any of my…"friends" is the wrong word, acquaintances is better, if I tried to show this to them back then, they would ask me why I was still watching cartoons at my age.

I mean, it was cool for it's organic mecha for the time. And I can see why it had it's hooks for 90s nerds/otaku, like it's specifically designed *for* them.

All I can understand is that anime has become "cool" enough that it will absorb (or has absorbed) shit like NGE, the same way it's absorbed things like Taxi Driver. I see so many "literally me" vids polluting the internet of Travis Bickle but you ask any of them if they've ACTUALLY sat down and watch Taxi Driver, most of them will say no.

>why is it suddenly "cool" now?
Because the overton window has shifted and anime is now generally accepted by the normie population. Most probably just watch whatever shonen show is popular at the moment but I guess some normies think they can differentiate themselves by watching "more profound" shows. Normies always try to prove their individuality by doing minor deviations on what is popular and safe. Being into NGE is just an expression of that I think.

Corpse Party is so niche I wish there was more stuff like it. There's a lack of good horror anime and content

just watch it to the end and tell us if it was worth it

I remember NGE being a sort of gateway drug for proto-weebs in the early 00's. If you wanted to go a step beyond Dragonball Z and Sailor Moon, you'd watch shit like NGE and Elfen Lied. I suppose there was a pseudo-profundity or perceived maturity surrounding those shows that appealed to 13 year old nerds. Nudity, violence, philosophical and psychological themes being touched upon (no matter how shallow) give a veneer of seriousness to any show when you're 13 because the only other thing you know is Pokemon.

i didn't even check this board, what a fool i have been. so much wizzardry about reading for me to enjoy!

i made a thread about (ebook) reading and what a wonderful thing the modern e-ink display is. please come visit https://wizchan.org/lounge/res/323200.html

it is very pleasant to the eye and can be used in full sunshine. where i live they spray aluminium in the sky to block the sun as to make the people sick more so whenever there is a short moment of sun, i hurry and quickly grab the ereader and try to sit in it.

>Do audiobooks count?

until i found my lord and savior the kobo ebook reader, i could only listen to audiobooks.

i tried to listen to an old book that someone bothered to make an audiobook version of with an ai narrator voice and it felt so awful and unsettling to listen to a robot that i thought "actually reading myself can't be worse then that"

… and it wasnt.

i still like audiobook read by the author but reading is nice to, especially in mild sunshine.

audiobooks don't really seem convenient to me
I remember listening to some book-cds as a very small kid though
the format doesn't seem appropiate for books
listening is for radio or podcasts, not books where you have to sometimes pause and think
unless you only read very simple fiction books
