When you talk to the Doctor Man for however many minutes and he just tells you “Oh your brain chemistry is messed up, I can tell from talking to you.”, are you really supposed to believe him?
I don’t know what Depression is, but I think it’s called being an adult. Men wouldn’t be here if not for it.
How did you find out
Manipulating you
This must be how people who aren’t good at mafia experience the world
Regarding the mental health stuff. I think it’s true that a lot of this is decided in your formative years. But people do have the ability to change themselves if they have the will.
Think about it this way. Who you are is largely determined by the lies you tell yourself every day (like: I’m not good with people) and the people around you who know those lies.
Every time you start a new thing, you have an opportunity to be a new person. You can decide to say “Today I am gregarious and optimistic” and that will be true if you can convince yourself of it. You aren’t really stuck the way you think you are.
I think one of the great realizations in my life was that people who are really sociable and outgoing are still awkward, socially clumsy, oblivious sometimes. These people don’t have some innate skill that makes them better than you they just decided one day to be friendly and stuck to it.
No, not really
Ive seen hundreds of outgoing people that mouth off and come off as retarded and never acknowledge it
They just dont know theyre fucking retarded
Also there are people who know theyre retarded and keep their mouth shut
There are people who are decent but are too judgemental and critical of themselves to be outgoing
And there are people who are decent and have self confidence which are usually very rare
Anyone who answers jack should be permad
You ain't never been no virgin, kid, you were fucked from the start
Not to be the norman peterson here but ever since puberty hit me ive been an absolute void of self confidence when it came to it
No need to dig deep some people are just better at believing in themselves in social situations and it comes moslty natutally induced partly by environmental factors
Same can easily be seen in various fields of skill and as an example i when i did boxing some kids just walked in looking fit and athletic but couldnt throw a jab for shit and you could.punch them like a bag and they had terrible stance, in contrast kids weighing 100 came in looking like losers with no previous experience but when they put on the gloves you coudlnt touch them and they threw killer punches.
It is very dependent upon how inclined you are to it.
Just git gud lmao
Ugh. All these people with opinions on synaptic function with no background in the science got me feeling so blasé. I don’t know what technology you guys have in Africa but in the past 20 years (Probably roughly the amt of hears your entire scientific and medical community is behind) Brain imaging and scanning has progressed to points that eclipse the entirety of of progress from all years prior. Now we need to use the information. How about you get off your ass and actually study something useful like biostatistics instead of dedicating all your time to the art of how to be a little bitch
Yeah I get that way when I can’t fall asleep. I’m okay!
Dreaming about grad school
No she isn’t. We’re friends
Just so you know, I stole that line in your sig from “A Pot in Which to Piss” by Titus Andronicus from their 2011 hit album The Monitor
I was aware that it wasn’t an deepthroat original. But it was still funny
