Plato’s Complete Works
Aristotle’s Conplete Works
Goethe’s Complete Works

I’ve recently taken an interest in poetry too. Some of Dickinson’s writings give me chills, but I don’t know why. Shankara is an excellent read.

Most of my best reading experiences come after learning a body of knowledge, such as a religion or the happenings of an historical period, and then reading some authors’ take on it. The ends always seem to justify wading through the body of facts. Thomas Carlyle’s writings on the French Revolution were incredible for example.

I've been performing a lot of introspection lately, thanks in part to my contact with Buddhist philosophy, and their emphasis on the "mind as the forerunner of all things".

My life has improved greatly from it. It feels like I lived as a robot previously, not observing myself nearly to the degree one should. Like I was merely on autopilot, and have recently started gaining self-awareness of myself.

I have a journal where I leave my thoughts down. Nothing revolutionary, most people do this, but for me I guess I've been drifting through life a bit more unreflectively than most. In this journal, I list the various complexes of my being, and try and organize them into a clear picture of myself. Ascertaining the causes for all of my internal and external behaviors. Recognizing my social anxiety, and the fakeness which comes from it, to be born of my self-perception that I am "abnormal" and "deficient" compared to everyone else, thus bringing me to be anxious around them, and to attempt to gain validation from them, who I perceive as my superiors, through behaviors not true of my genuine self. And this perception of deficiency, and the anxiety born of it, is so deeply-rooted that my behavior is instinctive - I behave fake around others not intentionally, but like a wind-up-toy whose trigger is the presence of any company.

And my recognition is that if I simply changed my self-perception, that of me being abnormal compared to others, then all of the products above it would naturally change too. The anxiety would dissolve, having no foundation to rest on, and the behaviors of fakeness would too, having nothing to animate them.

This is an example for one complex of my being, which I've performed for as many others as I can observe. Trying to understand my decade-long depression by the same process, for example. Operating on the belief that we have fundamental pillars within ourselves that form our Being at any given time, and these pillars being the basis of all our behaviors in a certain area. The attempt to ascertain which of these behaviors are changeable and which are not, and which need changing and which do not.

And I feel I've had glimpses of "alternate psyches" in the days I've spent on this process. As in, I've had moments where I genuinely felt like a different person, by virtue of having momentarily changed a fundamental aspect of my outlook, and thereby no longer the receiver of that aspect's effects on me. It was incredible, for example, to simulate a scenario of me being around my highschool's "popular kids", and not feeling any need for validation from them, because I'd internally, temporarily rewired myself so as to not perceive them as having anything to bring to me.

Pretty basic introspection, I know. But for me, it's been the onset of something life-changing. I used to think I was merely stuck as what I am forever, whereas I now see myself as having great room for change.

May all of you here gain peace.

Also wish to add that I've realized I've essentially suppressed my true self since highschool, whereby I effected a false personality for the sake of gaining social validation - and I lived with it, even in my private life, unaware of the part I was playing out until recently. It was really quite bad. My anxiety was with me wherever I was, and kept me in such a persona 24/7, unknown even to me. Still happens to this day - the grip is quite strong. Essentially, I've realized that I've been changing myself for others because I felt my true self was not adequate or respectable, and only now have I begun to again connect to said authentic version of me. For example, I'm an extremely quiet person deep down, yet I've spent most of the past many years of my life speaking a great deal - because I thought I "had to", since most others did, and that doing so was the means of attaining the approval of my peers. This wasn't conscious rationale, moreso instinctively reasoned. But as of this latest episode of introspection, I suddenly began to "see myself" in front of me, and realized there was a profound difference between the character in front and the consciousness in the back - and the recognition of this discrepancy was genuinely terrifying to me, and still is. Imagine operating on a script for years, that you didn't even know you were playing out. I look back on my past as if it were a gigantic lie - a series of programmed behaviors born not of a genuine self, but of instinctive drives within my being, like the immense anxiety mentioned earlier. I was a puppet being pulled by it's various strings, and only recently have I understood that I myself am the one who is holding them.

But questions still run through my mind: how do I satisfy my authenticity, without harming others? If my nature is to be quiet, is it then wrong to be so in the midst of company? If I made myself speak, I'd be disrespecting myself, and putting me in an uncomfortable position. Yet to be silent around others may give them the impression of disinterest, which I do not wish to give them. I care deeply about others, and always sought to make them feel as good as I could - this was part of what drove my fake behaviors, namely that I'd always pander to them in whatever way I felt would help them. My needs did not matter. If someone was rambling on and on and on to me about something profoundly uninteresting to me, I'd be smiling the entire time, making eye contact, and continuously asking leading questions to keep the conversation running - never giving a single indication of my disinterest. Making myself the group's clown if I felt my jokes would uplift the rest, even if my reputation suffered for it. Things like that.

So actually trying to honor myself now, and not simply be an entity who exists for others, is very difficult, and I'm still learning how I should approach it.

To be recognized by another is a great pleasure. Falling in love refers to: the exponentially increasing clarity of the self recognizing what recognizes it. Discovery of an attraction which is shared.

Watched first two episodes of Stranger Things Season 3, and read half of LondonFrog's new epub (which made me want to to go and get the candy I ate), and half of Houllebecq's Whatever (the two go hand in hand i think).

Coming to the end of a 4 day weekend and dreading going back into work on monday. Work has been draining my will to live, because it's just one damned thing after another, and I had no idea my job was going to be so shit when I took it 9 months ago.

I'm pretty certain I'm either autistic or have BPD (or both). Either way, I'm fucked. All I can do is put band-aids on my mental situation. I'll never be normal. I can't enjoy anything. The only thing stopping me from killing myself at this point is what it would do to my dad.

It is the anniversary of her death today. She drowned in a lake five miles from where I am sitting right now. I loved her and she loved me despite how impossible our love should have been. I had no right to be as happy as I was then, but that only makes it harder.

Carlyle is a genius, and I dont use that term lightly, but he has to approached from a perspective of already having knowledge. Much of what he says is extravagant, he was just a forceful personality, and so intelligent that he can argue things that might not be sensible in a way that make them seem so. HIs writing is above all just beautiful so definitely read him, but be a bit wary of his conclusions. I say this as someone who has sympathy for the Reactionary program, but Caryle does have his excesses.

Not well, but okay. Well I finally found a friend who is willing to include me in things, and treats me well and is just an overall good guy, the problem is that he doesn't like my brother who I live with for the next 5 months. I have been getting shit for the past few weeks from most of my family about him despite them not knowing him at all. It's extremely distressing because I want to keep him as a friend but all this tension is making it difficult. Before this I barely went out I was extremely depressed and overall miserable, but I also want to keep my brother from hating me.

Also, despite the fact that it's not really worth mentioning: they seem to think we're dating, or at least fucking, despite the fact that he is straight, although I will grant that he has feminine features.

For me it's a bit complicated. I was molested as a child and that sent my sexual development into the pit of confusion, and I would be lying if I said that didn't impact who I am sexually. So there's that and then there was an underlying interest in men that I suppressed because of my brother's bullying (the same one, ironically who molested me). So I identify as bi, but I'm really not 100% sure

Eh not that guy but I had a homosexual phase when I was a kid and its not much different than being heterosexual when all is said and done.

I feel like killing myself but there's no rational reason behind it. My life isn't horrible and even though I'm a khv I have a full time job and get along okay with my coworkers, and I have a great family even if I only see them twice a year for a couple days at a time.
I just have these episodes where I imagine hanging myself from my doorknob with my belt in graphic detail and it seems weirdly tempting, like if I felt impulsive enough I would just go ahead and do it without thinking. This has been going on and getting worse for about 4 months.
Dunno if it's related but I've noticed a constant pressure inside the right side of my head in the last couple weeks and I've been having memory/speech problems and unusually frequent migraines since the end of February.

as in she was something for me to consume, i feel like an ugly animal that just eats things and shit them out, but on some spriitual level, leaving the souls of people marred in thier body and residing mangled in my excrement. If there is a spirit world where what we have done to consciounesses lingers then im a kind disgusting gyre producing mystical trash. I repulse myself so intensely i have to smash my head into things daily just to get by, but i have an insatiable appetite to consume everthything beautiful that exists, because i feel so ugly and wrong, and just squirm it into shit through some arcane digestion. it amkes me so mad that iam broken and other things are pure that i want their love and holiness to be made rotten like me. I am so angry i can barely arouse my faculties to make sense of it, i just want to hurt and hurt and hurt until it is all like, a broken morass of godly fragments, made into spit spat out by a repulsive sprite. i just hate so much, and i dont understand why, i just want it all to fall into a dark nothing, a godless, homeless, senseless terror, that i feel every day and I dont understand why i have to experience it. If people will be around me and want me then they should have it too, they deserve it, if they want what i have, they are culplable in my torment, and so they should share in my pain. If people reject me away as a monster then ok, i am just a thing on the outskirts, but if they let any of it in then they are just as abd, just as harming, they just dont see thier awful wrongness, and i have to ruin and degrade them, i want to torture them and make them mangled like me, i cant stand that people are allowed to take from me the light i bring to this world through extreme trauma, and have it as their little experience of 'oh some crazy boy but he was fun and intense' and then throw me back into the pit of the hell i live in, no, they have to endure it too, and i want to torture every single last one of them until they feel what i feel and they stop fucking using me, like i am just a food for them, like i am not a human being, i still am even if i am dying, ti is not their right to have me be experience 204 in their stupid fucking lives, they are just as wrong as me and they should suffer my fate with me. it is absolutely fucking intolerable that i should be made to have my okness extraceted from me just as long as it seems lovely to their dumbass minds, and then back to the wretched fuckoff of madness and isolation, because i didnt fulfill their expectations of 'ethics' and functioning. i hate and hate and hate them.

but i also love people because they are pure and true, they just don't know it. They are always pure, i can see it in them, in their narcissism, there is hidden a kind of selfless love, that they have brought wrongly to the forefront o ftheir awareness, but they dont get that theyre doing it. So they deserve universal love, they really do. They are all lost lambs, to be healed.

I was alone but it was all she could take. years of shitposting and injecting fart after fart into her pillowy seat. there was no long any reserve stuffing or cloth or free space under the armrest or her backside. thousands upon thousand of 7-11 induced poisoned ass clouds expelled into her every weave and stitch. all additional farts injected into her would push an ancient and stale fart out her far side. I pushed hard and fired another hot jet of shit gas into the middle cushion. I pushed too hard but with purpose, I shit my pants again. instead of smelling my freshly laid fart and shit oder I could smell the remnants of a the drunken birthday party I threw myself four years ago and the 99 cent store egg nog and hollandaise sauce I binged on

I'm doing alright. I slept in til about 4pm, so I felt like I lost the day. Went and hung out with my grandmother and played board games because she loves that. The rest of the family was doing fine. They seem to be better these days then they did before.

Right now I'm studying for the bar exam, so every day feels the same, and I don't feel like I've learned anything even though I've watched hundreds of hours of lectures and read hundreds of pages of outlines and done hundreds of practice problems. I still feel as if I may fail this 3 day test. I'm scared, but I know that my friends who are also studying for the exam need me to be strong because they are the kind that are quick to be outwardly anxious and cripplingly fearful. I miss them and the way law school was going. I stopped drinking because I started blacking out too much and I feel better. I'm still paranoid about basically the past decade of drinking. I haven't worked out in almost 3 months. I feel weak and small. I feel stupid. My sleep schedule is fucked.

I want to write things, and I've actually started writing. It's been fun. Interesting how the mind will just sneak up on you. Sometimes I have to get my phone out to quickly write an idea or a passage out, but when I sit down to write I struggled to pump anything out. I have so many different types of pens and notebooks it's overwhelming. I've shown my writing to some friends and I've gotten mixed reviews. Some say that I truly have a knack and a style in what I'm making. It seems most people get caught up in editing or critiquing on a narrow scope when reviewing something. I guess I should do a better job of preparing them for what I'd like out of them, or maybe I just need to edit things before I show others. None of them write things themselves. Lawyers and computer nerds don't tend to write fiction.

I'd like to read more, but I've found it difficult to get into a new book, and any time I think I can read I think I should be studying, and so I then end up just refreshing /lit/ because it feels short term, but that ends up going for hours. Ah well.
