Mostly paranoia and anxiety. I don't like how THC affects my mood. I always been that doom feeling like I'm doing something wrong. — Posty McPostface
Also, I learned recently that psychedelics can effectively treat depression. Unfortunately they’re illegal though. It’s believe that they can help to breakup mental patterns (including depressive patterns, apparently). — praxis
What's self-esteem? I have a notoriously low self-esteem. — Posty McPostface
A cat would be nice. :) — Posty McPostface
I just ate a hot dog and some chicken, so I'm feeling less depressed. :) — Posty McPostface
That was awesome negative psychology. Now, I know how to become more miserable. Thanks! — Posty McPostface
I also have a psychotic disorder (formerly diagnosed as schizophrenia) and anxiety. — Posty McPostface
Did I mention that I have struggled with a substance abuse problem. I think that issue is in my past now — Posty McPostface
Your therapist asked you a very important question and you answered it in the current time when you were seeing the therapist but time moves on. So maybe entertaining his question, now at a different time would be fruitful?I already see a therapist and he asked me the fundamental question as to whether I am committed to getting better or stay the same. — Posty McPostface
Here is the key: be prepared when you use it, embrace it with everything you have because life has been waiting for you to make this decision.I told him that I am content with my crummy life as it currently is, and haven't spoken to him since. Does that mean that I can just learn to cope with it? — Posty McPostface
He was leaning into your shit just when you needed to be asking why You were leaning into your shit. — Valentinus

What could be more depressing than Oblivion? And then spreading this depressing message the way people like Dawkins and the cosmologists do creates depression in the general population.
Atheism is wrong and outdated. Science has moved on:

Please do not quote the Anthropic principle; its (to use your favourite word) bullshit:
- The Weak Anthropic explains the universe must be compatible with life for us to be here. It does not explain why the universe is compatible with life
- The Strong Anthropic explains that the existence of multiple universes with different properties account for our existence. But other universes are statistically likely to be like this one (Life supporting) so the SAP does not explain why the multiverse is fined-tuned for life. — Devans99
Yes, psychedelics can help. But, I learned the hard way of once taking magic mushrooms and experiencing ego — Posty McPostface
You shouldn't take psychedelics because you're not otherwise doing well. That's my advice to you. My other advice to you is to stop pretending like you have no ego. It's like this thing you like to say, but nothing is more obvious than how egocentric you are. In fact, fewer and fewer threads by you are about anything but you. — Hanover
Get involved in philosophical discussions about knowledge, truth, language, consciousness, science, politics, religion, logic and mathematics, art, history, and lots more. No ads, no clutter, and very little agreement — just fascinating conversations.
