Existential anxiety * 1
    #23482828 - 07/27/16 04:18 PM (7 years, 6 months ago)

Do you ever get bouts of existential anxiety? I used to get it often. That shit sucks, it renders you happyless.

My thoughts would loop on this frustrated "how and why?" with no resolve.

But now Ive done that enough times that I've run out of anxiety, or gotten more used it.

Now when the thought of it comes through I'm more like "fuck it". As if you're on a scary roller coaster and you know you can't stop it, but you do know that it will be over eventually so you have to endure it for the ride.

Yeah, you've got to be self aware enough to overpower your feelings with your thoughts and decisions.

Our anxiety is fueled by our thinking.

When we think "how and why?", we enter the gates of Hell.

We all have irrational thoughts. Recognize them as such.

The more we resist the thoughts, the stronger they get.

And yes, we can become comfortable with our suffering.

Our suffering can feel like a close friend. It makes us feel alive.
