How People Slowly Doom Themselves

People rarely destroy their lives in one big decision, they do it slowly through patterns they keep refusing to question.

It took me years to realize the cure for my addiction had nothing to do with fighting the addiction. It was learning how to handle stress, boredom, lonelyness.

Simplifying my life has really helped. Too overstimulated, distracted, and comparing myself to others. Learning to sit and enjoy the warmth of the sun on my skin of a morning is something I look forward to. Little things keep me going. The smell of coffee brewing. The soft fur of a pet. Fresh laundry or clean bed linens.

If you say there’s nothing you can do, you’re right. When you say it’s impossible, it is, because it’s only possible if you believe it is. You can’t win a battle you refuse to fight in.

Why when I hear “there’s a chance you could be right and there’s a chance you can be wrong” I already feel as if I’ve written myself off and there is no point.

Tbh I might only be 28 but the eternal sleep's sweet embrace seems pretty much like the best thing I can expect coming from this broken world at this point.

"There are two kinds of people: Those who think they can, and those who think they can't, and they're both right." — Henry Ford.

Like a friend of mine wisely once said, “Bro, it’s not your looks.”

Wake me up when september ends

we goin from doom 2 gloom boys

feeling this with existential nihilism. if i give myself a 0% possibility to there being no greater purpose to my time on earth, then everything loses its meaning. it really messes with my head

This is the most paradox advice I've ever heard

Has become more of a, nothing I want to do anymore. Nothing I can do, implies that one has some more or less concrete goal that they can't achieve. But in my opinion it gets even darker when there is no more goal to strive for and it kind of doesn't even matter any more.

I know exactly that there are things that could be done, I know a lot of them BUT! I don’t see myself getting over those internal barriers that keep me from doing them

Honestly there's always something you can do and it's just the fact that you failed

Accept one's lot in life and endure the misery.

Pro tip: dont take meth or heroin

Externalizing your own potential and ability is such a tough habit to crack sometimes

Being a wage slave is dooming yourself
