Why is it, and this goes for both men and women, that people fell entitled to love and romance to another person from the opposite sex? And get angry whenever the person they are interested is either in a romance, or interested in someone else than them? Asian countries suffer from this, particularly Japan and Korea, with their idol culture, and this goes for their virtual idol culture as well. But even in the west, this phenomena is happening. Can someone explain it?

Did you ever have that experience where what something is and what you want it to be differ so wildly that it hurts?

Russia is something which is like that for me. In my imagination, Russia is this amazing country where everything is hi-tech to the point of being science fiction. In my imagination, the Russian people are all very well-read, all renaissance people, skilled at the arts, at mathematics, at science. The Russia of my imagination is a cultural hub, where artists and writers and filmmakers congregate in Saint Petersburg and Moscow and produce works which leave the rest of the world in awe. The Russia of my imagination is a spiritual place, with glorious churches and mosques and where the shamanist practices are still alive. And the Russia of my imagination is a beauty, a place where nature is at its most pristine and the ecosystems are protected and healthy.

Russia in reality is a different sort of country. The Russian people suffer many problems from alcohol abuse to HIV to that strange hopeless feeling which seems to pervade the modern world. The standard of living is below that of many Western nations. The political situation is not as stable as it should be. They may be intelligent, but their primacy in the fields of science and the humanities has slipped away. The Russian land is plundered by corporations, foreign and domestic, for its resources, and the Earth's warming threatens the Russian ecosystems, which have grown accustomed to a cool climate. It is a sad thing. I wish Russia was what I imagined it to be.

I've come to realize that absolutely everything in the world is empty and unfulfilling. The job I was so passionate about a few years ago, the hobbies I used to spend so much time enjoying, the various books and movies I savored and found amusement in, the topics I energetically debated and discussed with others online or face to face, all of it. Even my food and drink is tasteless and unappealing.
I think I could find fulfillment in relationships with others, but I can't seem to connect with other people right. There's something I don't understand about interacting with people and even though I can fake most of it after observing others the critical things escape me. People have told me that I barely seem to have any emotions at all and that they find me very difficult to get to know, and that after knowing me for years they still feel like they don't really know me. I also tend to push people away when they try getting close or ask personal questions because it makes me deeply uncomfortable and anxious, but I don't really know why.
Either I've come to realize this or I've just lost whatever it was that let me be satisfied and find fulfillment and enjoyment in any of it. In fact, it seems like all the things I used to care about were means to trap me in the world, promising fulfillment if I just pursued them a step more, then another step, then one further, without ever delivering it. Increasingly, I've found myself detaching from my emotions and thoughts, watching events occur from a distance, watching someone else live my life. I feel like if I push things the right way I can snap something keeping all of it together and stop feeling much of anything at all, and I also feel that doing so would be wrong somehow.
I don't really know what to do from here. I wish there was something that would fill the emptiness in my life but nothing works so far. When I see people feeling passionate about things and being satisfied by their actions I feel like they have some kind of superpower.
What do I do? Is it possible to change my whole personality and manner of interacting with the world? Is that even worth it? Is there anything that will really fulfill me? I feel totally lost.

Went on a date yesterday. She laughed a lot, she wasn't in a hurry for it it end. But I presume she doesn't want a second date. Three years ago I would have felt like it was a divine miracle to just get the date, now I'm so spoiled as of late that I feel like if she isn't at least hugging me repeatedly freely asking me do I want to hang out again that it's over. What the fuck happened to me? Why do I expect it to be so easy now?
I've also been trying to collect 'psychological observations' over the last month, last one I heard was from Dave Chapelle likening seeing Michael Richard's freakout to seeing the tiger attack Sigfried and Roy
>No body goes to that shit to see someone be safe with a tiger, they go because "hmmm nigga might get bit, I'd like to see that for $35 dollars if I could"
What drives that? That's why people watched Eval Keneval right? I'm sure Lacan would say it's the Real interfering the Symbolic. But Lacan sucks.
Another example of these observations is when in Under the Floorboards the narrators says some people lament when a toothache stops swelling because they can't complain about it anymore.

Does anyone have any helpful hints for preventing panic attacks? So far I have been able to console myself knowing that despite how bad they get, they won't actually kill me. But now—when I get them at their worst—I start vomiting. (This is a relatively new thing. I am under a lot of stress at my job, which I may lose soon, and I have OCD.) Normally this wouldn't be a problem, but if I throw up when I am around other people I am worried it will make them think I am sick and have covid. The main thing that seems to help are distractions (I rarely get panic attacks while busy at work, for instance), but I'm getting really tired of waiting around wondering whether another panic attack is about to happen. I don't really want to get medication because I am worried that will actually make it worse in the long run.

Anon, I just started at cheap small city university and feel like abject failure for coming here. I out preformed my classmates who made it into Quinnipiac and Harvard, but now that I'm in Uni HS looks like an egotisical comedy. And yet, all those classmates who went to expensive schools are making friends and seem much happier.

There's more going on causing my unhappiness than this school, but it's certainly among my doubts. The locals are cold, and the opportunities for fields I'm interested in are usually mook. Am I being too short sighted? What was good about going to a less prestigious school?

One of my oldest friends said he didn't chose me as a wingman for his wedding because I don't have a girlfriend to take with me. My mother earlier this week told me it's getting late and it's strange not seeing me with girls. I can talk to them, but not in a romantic context. If it's the girlfriend of a friend or a work college, sure, even small talk is fun - going to the bar and everything else. But if I'm interested in the girl something happens and I become a potato. They can sense my retardation and run away. It was never a problem until now. I've had one girlfriend before, but I started visiting this website and something broke and now I can't think outside of "I'm not tall enough, rich enough or interesting enough". In my mind only God can have a girlfriend. Even if the information I absorbed here is true, it ruined me in that regard. I shall dwell in solitude and despair until the day I gather the strength to end it all.

Who here /chameleon/? I feel like I'm sort of a protean figure, taking on whatever form, demeanor, attitude that is demanded of me reasonably convincingly, at the price of never being able to fully internalize any exterior aspect, at the price of everything feeling like LARP. Is this what others feel like, too? Not that I'm implying that there's some "troo self" lying deep within all of us, but that I am somewhat puzzled by the fact that I was either created or ended up being this irreparably bland in my essential self. It's like some of the worst aspects of being a buddha, the parts where you become unbound by the world's fetters, letting things wash over you, seeing in things nothing but their ephemerality and dependent arising, yet there's no salvation waiting for me from any of the world's vacuousness.

The Fusion of the African and European and various Asian races is essential to the foundation of the Cosmic Race. The Cosmic Race’s creation has six stages.
1. Fusion of the Amerindian and European races, leading to the Latino race. Mostly complete.
2. Fusion of the European race and the African races to create the Eurafrican race. Ongoing and accelerating.
3. Fusion of the East Asian and European races to create the Hapa race. Ongoing.
4. Fusion of the West Asian and European races to create the Magian race. Ongoing and accelerating.
5. Fusion of the minor races with larger groups, like Aboriginals and Europeans. Ongoing.
6. Fusions of the races created in steps 1-5, along with the Indian races, to create the Cosmic Race.

One step at a time, one day at a time. Wash your clothes, do some simple housekeeping and it'll help unless you are seriously depressed but do it anyway because even if you're depressed you'll have a nicer place to look at.
I did some casual labour today. It was the first time I've worked in years and I'll work later this week. Personally I've come to the realization that I have to find a balance between examining the past, living in the present and planning for the future to move on with my life and get over this inability to concentrate. Living in the past and scared of what could possibly happen (to the point of psychosis actually) while neglecting the here-and-now has been a disaster for my life. Instinctively I knew that my perspective was wrong but I hadn't figured out _how_ to live in the present and why I had this skewed view of reality in the first place. I won't go into full detail but I'm a huge people pleaser that exhausted and neglected myself into madness. It was a massive mental block that has lasted for as long as I can remember and I have to get over that hump to clear my head.

Some people just don't gel with my crippling autism so I don't even try to get along with them unless I have to interact with them (university is taking a massive toll on me with that, I can feel my sphincter clench just thinking about going into uni, damn it).
I agree that the zen state of mind of "forget the past, be in the now" is crucial to the happiness of people of our persuasion. My own psychotic breaks tend to happen when I remember fucked up shit from my traumatic childhood/adolescence, psychedelics helped me a lot in accepting that I survived, and that's the important part. I think /lit/ types do tend to be the dreamy, detached from reality type of lads in general, there's no shame in admitting mental illness in my humble opinion. Most normies are absolutely batshit fucking insane as far as I've observed, I believe that's social media's fault. Now normies see mental illness as just another asset to get attention and asspats from other normies.

I tried to be a normalfag and sadly it didn't work out well the first time. It ended up with me breaking down at a party over a breakup (no idea how I got a girl in the first place but she cheated lol) and several concurrent problems... I couldn't keep my autism in check. The blurry drunken memories still haunt me and was one of the reasons I snapped. I avoided people in response and """lucky""" for me covid started so it was incredibly easy to do. Although it may not sound like it, I'm trying to encourage you to go out and meet people. I tell you of my failure as encouragement, that you can bounce back from royally fucking up socially. I'm going to meet new people and start from the ground up, it'll be uncomfortable as hell but I hope it'll be a better success than last time. I don't know where I'll find them but I will. Saw a comment on a Cumtown clip: "The path to Ws is paved with Ls and hard Rs" and I love it so much I repeat it to myself often when shit gets hard. Also yeah, normies are fucking insane. It's their lust for sex and their own lack of self-reflection combined with the irritation of the modern world and social media that makes them mad. That and a lot of other things.

One thing not everyone mentions about depression: It fucks up your senses. Last year, I went house-sitting for a coworker of my mother's, and a plastic bag was on the counter. Also, a strange red stain was in the microwave. Later I learned that the girl who was house sitting before me overcooked some crawfish in the microwave, and when the coworker got back, she was shocked by the smell and alarmed I hadn't noticed. My mother said she almost took me to the hospital, but believed it was a symptom of covid and chose not to. It wasn't covid though - I just can't really smell things anymore. My sense of touch is deteriorated too, and there's also research and anecdotes suggesting depressed people literally see fewer colors.

My point anyway is that I wish more people could understand that depression is a genuine illness. I feel that maybe only 5% of the population at best knows this, that something we call depression is a genuine mental illness and not just "feeling bad". You stay sane, yeah, but you get to watch as your brain decays and only your rationality is intact. Your senses go to shit, your memory dies, many people get chronic bowel problems, lose the ability to form new memories, feel totally disconnected from their bodies, and the list goes on. Yet 95% of people don't get it. For some reason they just can't. They will always believe that if you just eat right and exercised, talked to a therapist and tried new things, all this would go away. The idea your mind can just fall apart like this is unbelievable to them, even though they accept that schizophrenia is real.

I dunno man. I don't know why I care. I just wish other people could get why my life is falling apart. Maybe if I started acting more crazy they would believe me. At least then it's not like I'm just throwing my life away for no reason.

You can't really think your way out of problems, but you can adjust your behaviour toward your thoughts. I am also a believer that psychology is largely downstream from physiology.
"If I just have the correct thoughts everything will come together" is a trap.
Look to the body as, not the mind. Your issue is very probably thinking too much about trivial shit, the good or bad is irrelevant, balance out all that contemplation with physical action.

That's really sad, anon. You should at least find a buddy to drink and jerk it with. I had friend like that once. Very handsome fella that went by Robin, though his real name was Chris. It was his middle name, I think. His parents might've liked Winnie the Pooh. Maybe they just hated their kid. I never asked. In any event we used to drink together. Whatever he could steal from his folks, which meant that it was usually mixer. Tasted like shit but I guess that hardly matters when you're drinking to get wasted. Never fucked him in the ass, but he was a handsome fella. Turned out to be bi or something. We were real competitive about who came first, which I usually did. It was sort of rigged against me from the start, since I still had my foreskin. He wasn't Jewish, either, just American. We also made it a point never to look at each other while that went down. We'd sit back to back, each of us goading the other in whichever way we could. One felt a great sense of camaraderie in those moments. We were in the dark, too. That's what we went camping for. Well, he liked the fishing and I liked the fire, but the drinking was a big draw. I think his dad began to get an idea of what was going on, because he'd sometimes make faces at me. Maybe he thought I was gay, or that I was boinking his kid. He used to be quite the man's man; broke horses, fixed cars, owned this great big chopper that he said was a Harley Davidson. He got fat, though. Anyway, I lost touch with him after I left to college. I kind of miss him sometimes. Drinking wasn't ever really the same without him. Didn't like the guys there, either. A girl, you can get any kind. It doesn't really matter except that you gotta be sure she's not too stupid, otherwise she'll get bored. There's no such thing as a really clever girl. Guys, the really clever ones are the only ones worth going after. Or, at least, that have a certain something in them. He wasn't too bright, but he sure was handsome. Could really hold his liquor, too. I don't know. Get a friend like that, anon. Stop being lonely.

Curious as to where you're currently based. I get a similar feeling after long periods of travel. Mostly it's the urban parts that get me. I can't really do Appalachia, though. That's thoroughly tainted. Parts of the Rockies put one at ease, and the same's true for the less inhabited parts of the Middle West. It's a beautiful country if you know where to look.

Because society largely instills the notion that if you’re no pt with someone you have no value or your life has no value. It’s in the love songs, the romances, the obligatory romantic elements of non-romantic story (he’s out to kill the demon dragon of doom, but hey, he’s gonna fall in love along the way, too, because the marketing guys said we need a romance to hook female readers!). It’s ingrained in the insults and put downs (incel, chud, loser, nobody will ever love you, you can’t get a girl?). It’s held up as a counter to other kinds of successes (sure, Scrooge had wealth … BUT DID HE HAVE A GIRLFRIEND?!) So it’s not just the rejection that hurts (and that can hurt a lot) but also what the rejection signifies: that you’re a failure not just in love with that person, but at all of life. So people feel entitled because they’re alive and they’ve been told the only point to being alive is to be in a relationship so why were they born if they’re being denied the one and only thing that’s supposed to matter?

I used to as well. Ask yourself what you fear more; rejection or missing out and dying alone. Literally the worst that can happen is she isn't interested. If that happens you just move on. It will suck for a bit, rejection always does, but it's better to know than live in an eternal limbo of "what if".

The more you approach women and, by extension, get rejected the more confident you'll become. You'll realize that rejection isn't that big of a deal which leads to it being easier to approach women.

Ever since I was a child I had difficulty articulating my thoughts and talking to others. Like, if I had to talk to someone on the spot, it was as if there was this interference in my brain and I wouldn't be able to focus enough on the subject at hand to properly convert it into words and in sentences and in overall communication. I can only talk to people if I think things over beforehand and basically rehearse it, or if it is someone I'm really close to in which case the "interference" suddenly dissipates. Whatever it is, I feel like it's contributed a lot to my alienation from other people.

The testimony of the guy in the first part of this video about how he couldn't even get the nurse to give a straight answer is exactly what negrification/latinxification looks like. This is the kind of individual it produces, and the kind of society it produces as both an aggregate of such individuals, and out of necessity, as all its "potential employees" are now full blown retards like the nurse described in the story.

What happens is that standards for literacy and competency and eventually even presence of mind drop systemically. This is what a non-white society looks like: systemically tolerated, always worsening, borderline childlike incompetence.

No matter how nice and nonracist you are, you must be aware that these people are 80IQ troglodytes. It's not just the lower bounds or ghetto ones anymore, the new normal, the new average person in America is now an 83IQ mulatto nurse who doesn't even answer, doesn't even TELL SELF-CONSISTENT LIES when lying, because she's never been held up to real (white) standards of competence. As a result she's not only incompetent but entitled and sassy about it too.

This is third world tier, this is illiterate tribal savage taught the basics of triage in some backwoods medical outpost tier. And these people are probably now staffing most government, military, and infrastructure positions.

i prefer crime documentaries that focuses more on the victims than the killer.
firstly it gives less respect for the killer by not giving him the attention he probably wiched for and secondly it shows how heavy the act of killing is and how many people are affected by the loss of someone. "the tragic life of a man caucht in a murder and how his loss is a tragedy" rather than "the tragic life of the killer, and what led him to kill".

just a few thoughts, i don't clinge to them so don't feel the need to "destroy" me, i don't care.
this thread is just a way for me to exercice my ability of writing down my thoughts.
thank you
