Of all the emotions, why on earth would you choose to be sad?

If you had kept reading you would have seen that I am asserting that it is possible to convert your sadness into anger.

Not 4chan autistic. Like clinically autistic.

Okay faggot, be sure to clean up the used tissues and empty tubs of ice cream before you go to bed.

Shit man why didn't I consider just choosing to not be depressed and choosing anger or happiness instead?
Boy don't I look silly now

>>26424061

it's sad that you failed to make us read past your retarded statement that sadness is a choice

I've already reached that stage. I don't like it though. I used to be happy and now I'm just bitter and butthurt 24/7.

Then again it's all I've got going for me at this point, so i'm trying to embrace it.

Oh I'm raging alright. I'm burning with hatred. I absolutely despise normies like you who think people can "choose their feelings", I hope you get raped in the ass by a pack of alligators and die of AIDS.

>>26425128
Instead you're an autistic manchild who thinks temper tantrums make you strong

>>26425158
Humans are stronger when angry. So in a way, yes.

>>26424061
Sadness is an automatic reaction you retard, you cannot choose to be sad ITS LITERALLY UNCONTROLLABLE AND WILL ALWAYS HAPPEN WHEN THE SITUATION THAT CAUSES SADNESS OCCURS like a reality check for example. You think we WANT TO BE SAD OF COURSE NOT BUT WE CANT JUST MAGICALLY TURN OFF OUR ABILITY TO FEEL SADNESS SO FUCK YOU YOU FUCKING NORMIE.

>>26425184
Which is why professional fighters get angry in the ring
Oh wait
Enjoy everyone looking at you like you're kylo ren from star wars or something lmao

>implying I advocate uncontrolled, chaotic anger

Anger is merely a replacement for sadness. Instead of seeing some unattainable Stacey and thinking "oh boo hoo I'll never have that so I think I'll cry about it", convert your emotions into rage and instead see her for what she is, a whore who means literally nothing to you and doesn't deserve your attention.

I bet you're the type of guy who runs with his arms behind his back

>>26425211
Perpetual sadness is a choice unless you suffer from a genuine mental illness. Deny it all you like but you know I'm right.

>>26424061
I prefer to be benign than cancerous.

>>26425249
I don't and never had cared about stacies, chads, etc. and I generally avoid anything romantic or really people in general
I'm not sad about any one thing in particular, yet I still always am

>>26425284
Depression is a mental illness.

>>26425251
Not accurate. I'm not even sure why you'd come to this conclusion but whatever. Next time how about you actually contribute to the thread, no?

>>26425251

I get sad everytime I actually reality check myself anon I dont like sadness at all but I cant stop it when I reality check myself.

>>26425316
I never said depression isn't a mental illness. If you legitimately suffer from depression and have been diagnosed by a professional, you officially have an excuse to be perpetually sad.

>>26425331
>>26425319

This is a weeb thing, right? I never got into that shit.

>>26425356
Well that's settled then

>>26424061
To put it simply, if someone like me got mad, and did something, I'd just be another laughable statistic. I don't have the power to harm others, so I'll bear my problems and just weep. I'll get better soon enough.

>>26425362
How do you live with yourself? Do you get picked on a lot for being a faggot? What do your parents think?

Wow I'm so enlightened by your post, I can't believe some people choose to be sad when they can just respec and stop.

OP here. When I made this thread I wasn't really trying to tell any of you faggots how to live your lives. Basically all I want is a bit of a change here on /r9k/. I've grown tired of the constant sadness and wallowing in sorrow, that's all.

I know anger is one of the stages of grief but it seems I flip flop from one stage to the other, usually alternating from acceptance to anger and vise versa. I got depression out of the way years ago.

For much of growing up I thought anger was the most despicable emotion possible and put effort to be completely emotionless and blank. My autism superpowers helped, and much of it was brought on by an always angry father and an always depressed mother. Anyway after some experimenting with drugs and being overwhelmed with emotions I found them creeping into my daily life. Instead of snuffing them out I decided to follow them and meditate on the feeling to amplify it. It's pretty amazing how much an emotion can start out small, not even a whole thought, but like a seed it grows into a huge and powerful force. After a point it gets beyond even my control.

Anger is the most powerful I believe. My pulse and blood pressure elevate rapidly by a huge degree, My skin actually reddens, I feel waves of heat flow through my body, mainly concentrated in my chest and radiating outwards. I once brought anger ot the gym with me and while I was still novice, I did have 8 months of following a strength routine so this wasn't merely noob gains. Timing my lifts with pulses of hatred I managed to beat my previous deadlift by 35lbs.

I can meditate on sadness to the point I get a lump in my throat and I begin sobbing. I don't work with this one much. I spent a lot of time experiencing this one in my youth so it's all familiar terrritory, only then I couldn't control or induce it, I just woke up like that pretty often.

Happiness is the hardest to hold on to, but it feels kind of like vibration concentrated in my spine and back of my head. I get lightheaded and pulse goes up but not so much blood pressure. It's the best feeling so far.

Other weird emotions like fear, jealousy, envy, sexual desire, shame, guilt, etc seem to be the core emotions of joy, anger, and sadness.

You are a top-tier b8er. I respect that but will not respond to you anymore.

I've been reading more on vipassana and heart rhythm meditation. There pretty different but if the subject interest you they might be worth a read. In the past I always thought eastern shit was stupid, buddhism is just nihilism for yellow people. Meditation is legit though, just remove the association of religion from it.

The last couple days I've tried to be more mindful and feel my pulse. I've done it years before at times but not really a focused thing or synchronizing breaths with it. I like the sound of square breathing. 8 beats inhale, 16 beats hold, 8 beats exhale and immediately beginning the 8 beats inhalation as soon as the lungs are empty. It's harder than it sounds because I"m easily distracted, but I like it from what I've seen so far. I get a tingly lightheadedness from it and feel calmer after doing it a while.
