The loss of structure and increasing atomization of post-modernity plays a role in feelings of meaningless. But its also because secular liberal humanism is unsatisfactory for a lot of people. It doesn't answer many of the questions we have. It seems to create more anxiety than comfort not to mention the ecological disaster its created. Nevertheless, its the dominant belief system globally, having pushed aside or crushed anything that challenges it. I'm not sure what you mean by hardness though or how that can be a solution to the meaningless issue.

>>20508
True. I guess what I want to push back against is the idea that religion is just objectively meaningless bullshit and so we can play around with it the way artists play around with paint. I don't mean to say secular art is inherently meaningless or that religions are somehow more meaningful. But I do think Buddhist miniature painters and Muslim calligraphers have a very different idea about what they are doing to the regular art school performance artist. e.g. In the art world, there seems to be an idea that art is supposed to be individualistic, artist centered, liberal, and not tied to religion. I'm not super knowledgable about it but that's the impression I get. I think religion and art are deeply connected, but old religious traditions had a different idea of art than the kind institutionalized by galleries, art critics, and art schools today.

For sure. At least with regards to the suspension, and even the steering to an extent, that can be improved relatively easily. I'd much rather have a good drivetrain. Unfortunately it's so good that K20s are ridiculously expensive, not that I plan on blowing mine up. EP and FK's are great as well. I prefer the FL over the FK personally but I'd be happy with either.

And yeah Accords are great, if a clean CG shows up I would definitely try and get it. I looked up more on the CN2's and they look nice, especially the wagon variant. What happened to yours?

>Had a very hard life, but never let us down.
To me stuff like that had always been a matter of perspective. It may have had a hard life but if something was made to endure that then on some level I think it's respectful to make sure it can fulfill that purpose. It's why I somewhat feel conflicted to see cars meant to be driven kept in unreasonably pristine condition.

Conversely, if there was a reason to get a different car that fit a different need then I can see why you had to sell it. That's just how things end up sometimes, as uninsightful that may be.

Hi sushi

I've been thinking that I am sort of unable to validate people's feelings, and that includes myself, like my own feelings aren't that important to me. I wouldn't say I completely lack the ability, I would just say I am very desensitized or something.
Don't know what causes it exactly, in part I think it is my way of emotional management, i.e. I don't readily express my feelings unless they are calm and quiet. Also I think something like that this reality is pretty miserable and ultimately bad things happening are to be expected. One could do something about it, but it's no use crying over spilled milk.
I never even thought about it until I got a bit into psychology and also ran into a few bad experiences with people who would react negatively to my worldview and my diplomacy, naturally.
It is recommended to use generally meaningless phrases like "I am sorry it happened", "Sounds bad" for emotional validation but I kinda cannot do it regarding issues I don't feel particularly bad about myself, and I try to maintain a positive outlook on life by laughing serious issues off. I could be polite but I cannot help but feel fake when doing that. Also what about my feelings when you decide to share yours? If yours are valid, then my honest reaction to them is valid too, shouldn't it be like that?
Do I lack empathy? Sometimes I think I am sort of jaded but I definitely don't lack it completely. I just often cannot afford to care I guess.

Can I really have friends with a mindset like this? This wouldn't be easy to change since it's deeply internalized and conditioned by my surroundings.

Overall I dunno where this thread should be, I don't mean it to be overly serious, just some lighthearted words about what the heck is wrong with me lol, if anything. Much love, sushi.

I used to have the same issue sushi roll, and I didn't even realize how much I was neglecting my own feelings. Watching Dr K's videos helped me immensely with my problem. The video I linked is about Alexithymia, which is a condition with symptoms akin to what you're describing.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8pQBdZ3RdfA


Dr K is a licenced psychiatrist in the US, who used to be addicted to video games, so now he helps gamers and adjacent people in his work life. He talks about feelings on his youtube channel and he interviews various guests (sushi rollymous followers of the channel, e-celebs, mental health experts, etc.).
He also used to study to be a hindu monk, so sometimes he veers into teritory more related to hindu religion and philosophy rather than science. Feel free to discard any advice you don't like, and only apply the advice that's helpful for you.

The video I linked you is just the tip of the iceberg, the real meat (? not sure if thats the correct expression but ykwim) is in the older guest interviews, where he talks to people about their feelings on stream, and goes into the nitty gritty on why and how the guests feel the way they feel. He's great at validating his guests' feelings, and watching Dr K validate other people's feelings made it easier for me to accept and validate my own feelings, especially if the guest had expierences similiar to mine.

He's great at validating his guests' feelings, so just try to copy his approach.

Watching multiple interviews over multiple months made me so much more in touch with my feelings, and made me understand other people's emotions so much better. Processing some of the feelings was painful at times, and involved crying, but that release helped me get the negative, pent up emotions out of my system. I feel so much lighter now, and so much more in touch with myself.

Psychology student here, and I'd say what you said is mostly correct but there is a definitive science behind a lot of it too, more so than economics. Psychiatry is good proof of this, with heavy research into medications and stimulants that blurs the line between the psychological and the scientific. There's aspects of science that are like philosophy but a common misconception of psychology is that it's all speculation when in reality its much more than that and there's a hard science into a lot of psychological concepts. For instance, a lot of anomalies/undesired results from directed effective treatments are generally more so from a often times multilayered and complex reasoning than simply "it just didn't work". There are usually observable things that inhibit effectiveness and further approaches might be needed to target specific things like say, trauma, anxiety, depression, etc. Many medications are actually a lot more effective than people think, but specific cases often times need additional approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy that helps restructure the brain alongside with the medication allowing for that rewiring of the brain.

I study it as well informally mostly focused on psychiatry among other related topics since I couldn't afford uni, so as result I am not bound by being told a certain thing and expected to believe it. Though of course I also can miss some things since I focus mainly on practical application to help people I come in contact with in more than support, which actually does the most but sometimes not enough. It's a social science which is a soft science is what it is called because you can't really run experiments that account for every variable and proper control group at least not ethically anyway. Certain aspects do fall under same as in medicine when it gets more into the neurological and genetic aspects but nothing solid yet as those are in infancy, but then there is so much in psychology particularly abnormal psychology is just made up by boards of psychologists behind the DSM which also often is what the IDC uses as a guide to influence their conditions and diagnostics though they have their own. They create groupings of certain behaviors call those behaviors bad and call it a day but wind up treating a large number of them the same way anyway. They aren't as bad as they used to be where it is getting to be more accepting of different kinds of people but it still is an external subjective judgment for the most part. Psychiatric medicine research is lead by private corporations with a profit motive to hide data or just suffer from bias to confirm the hypothesis and the studies often fail to properly gather enough people of different genetic backgrounds to test safety and efficacy. When diagnosing psychiatrists do not run brain scans or any kind of medical tests on people to diagnose them vast majority of the time, they do not care about the individual symptoms a patient is having only the label they can give them from what I've seen most do and the medicines they give them are questionable in how they are used. I could go into a lot more detail but I don't want to bring in some debate. I'd suggest you check out Daniel Mackler's videos on YouTube. He has a ton of videos on psychotherapy.

Despite good intentions I absolutely fucked up this year and now I'm stuck in a shitty situtation that I practically put myself into. I've noticed the following flaws that are the cause of this.

1. Inability to make decisions, probably stemming from deep anxiety, fear of loss, fear of failure, and low self-esteem.
2. Avoidant behavior i.e. avoiding or delaying things like talking to people or paperwork because its psychologically stressful and depressing.
3. Chip on the shoulder. Resenting other people and myself for past greviences, or perceived greviences.
4. Poor time management, bad spatial awarenss, and shitty attention span meaning I get taken advantage of or mess basic things up because I didn't read things properly. I've tried reading stuff over multiple times but this still doesn't fix severe attentiond defecit.

How do I fix this garbage? I've got notebooks so I can write info down and map out my day. I'm thinking of grabbing a digital watch so I can keep track of time without getting sucked into the smartphone. I still have the attention span of a baby chimp on cocaine but hopefully with discipline things will get better. But I have no idea what to do for 1. and 2. I struggle to email people or even talk on the phone. I clam up and sutter easily. And if I have to send messages or do paper work or go outside I put it off for as long as possible. This has led me to massively fuck up my life and down the path of wasted opportunities and letting myself rot all year.

>I struggle to email people or even talk on the phone.
Practice! I had this problem too, so I used to rehearse every call I had to make. After some time I didn't even feel anxiety when unknown numbers called me up. I used to reply with messages to avoid talking, silly.

If you struggle with e-mails, use AI assistance. You can ask it how they would interpret your message and it will also tell what you can do better. I use it a lot when discussing things on the webz - maybe even for this reply? Heheh.

>digital watch

Hell yeah, it can really help. If you can, turn off your smartphone too. I do that, and also put it in a place where I am too lazy to pick it up from. That goes for everything that distracts me. Regarding sounds I put rain on speakers, it masks irregular noises that make me lose focus. Unfortunately I do not have a strong will, so I have all kinds of dumb tricks to force me to be productive.

Basically I limit access to everything that is more interesting than my work - LeechBlock is a great extension for that, if you struggle with web surfing.

I think that is all I can offer help with, sorry!
