Do you ever worry that you're crazy?

I worry that some day I'll accidentally read a page of random nonsense words and have it make sense to me, and then I'll know...
>>
People who are insane don't "Realize" they're insane. That is the point, boy.
>>
nothing is ever really nonsense
you just don't know the convergence of atoms that brought about the "jumble" of words

observe:
combustible chafing unlimited sam product
invested courage pulmonary porous lettuce
entranced lotion simplification tragedy proposal
eliminates fastidious regents financially quell
propellant diminishes koala markets orange

not even i know exactly why those pile of words now exists in this thread
if i did, i might be something closer to a god that knows all
but the all-knowledge couldn't be communicated with words, you see, it could only be recreated by reenacting the entire universe from scratch

What is sanity even

This is a horrifying existence we have

Am I trapped in an absurd philosophical nightmare whose true deepest nature is obscured from me, or am I just a little bit off?

I see moments where everyone else gives off the vibe that they know something is off too. But am I just projecting? Am I just affecting them?

The deep personal moments when nobody is watching and we're free to laugh at whatever we want, to think whatever comes to mind unabashedly, without hesitation or defensive planning for future repercussions of the words

People always just take things the wrong way. Why do I have no friends?

>>36557600
I don't know what you mean by saying "Something is off"
>>
>>36557781
By "something is off" I just mean pseudointellectual /r/iamverysmart/ level anti consumerist and propaganda based themes, but the real non-pseudo-intellectual thing, but whatever the epitome of that is. Does that make sense?
>>
>>36557138
If you know it makes sense to you, and are aware it shouldn't, means that you can pretend it does not make sense to you. In the end sanity is simply keeping up the facade that you perceive the world the same as other humans. We all make sense of things that make sense to no one else, it's about how many of these things you can hide before they start spilling over.
>>
>>36557847
Does everyone have weird moments where they think "Hmmm, am I the only one to which this strange mental anomaly I just experienced applies?", with those "strange mental anomalies" being generic brain farts, forgetting things, being aware of the fact that you just forgot something, wondering whether other people are aware of awkward social dynamics in a group setting, extreme self consciousness, etc.?

Or am I just fucking mentally ill
>>
>>36557830
It seems like it makes sense to you but it doesn't make sense to me. Maybe if you elaborated further we could be on the same page.

But I think I know what you mean, maybe. Like how everything is a brand, how super big corporations are everywhere and we live in this big brother like society? Is that it?
I wish I knew whether I was crazy or not, I worry that these meds effect my health.
>>
>>36557921
I don't think you're mentally ill, but I could be wrong. It's not like you're hearing voices or anything.
>>
>>36557138
You're not insane if you do crazy shit and are aware of it. You are insane when you are no longer aware of it being crazy.
>>
>>36557830
You mean the fact that you need to consume nothingness in order to be something?
There is a reason we are all sinners, because at a base level everything must consume something in order to be. Consumption in and of itself is the death of something caused by something else, and that is sin, you must sin in order to be. It is for a reason that most of these questions that you ask are inconceivable to you, let alone definable in words. It is because you know the answer to them, and that answer frightens you so much that the very essence of your being willed itself into a manifestation that is not even capable of approaching these questions. You wish to answer the conundrum failing to realize that if you ever answered it you would seize to exist. The closer you are to knowing everything the closer you are to knowing nothing, so stop trying to stare at god.
>>
>>36557921
It just sounds like you're socially awkward and you've not been fortunate enough to encounter/perceive that other people have the same problems sometimes like memory problems, social anxiety, and self-consciousness. I would recommend you google and keep seeking answers for these specific problems, and seeing a psychologist if it's serious and you need some structured and educated help.

Insanity is subjective but as long as you can find a way to not be bothered by it then it's not really a big deal. I consider pretty much everyone except for myself to be a bit insane, but I recognize that for all social purposes I shouldn't really concern myself with that. The best I can do is hope things get better over time. I also know that me being insane is more likely from a naive and objective point of view so I basically just try to be rigorous with my mind in throwing away insane thinking.
>>
>>36557921
And here I thought you actually knew what level of being off in the head I was referring to. You're just experiencing social anxiety due to being uncomfy in your skin, that's like 90% of the population withing your age group if I'm correct about you being a young adult. I'm talking about someone looking like someone else after you knowing them for years, and you pretending like they've looked like that since always, even though your memories tell you different, because if you did they'll give you shock therapy.
>>
>>36558113
>You wish to answer the conundrum failing to realize that if you ever answered it you would seize to exist. The closer you are to knowing everything the closer you are to knowing nothing, so stop trying to stare at god.
that's some bullshit right there. the rest isn't bad I think though.

I think the buddhist perspective offers something similar to original sin, the four noble truths, which basically say that life is suffering and that in order to reduce suffering we must disconnect from our cravings and desires if we wish to end suffering.
I don't really know how I feel about this position but in cases of extreme suffering it certainly is helpful to take a step back through well-established methods like meditation and try to see things unemotionally/disconnected in order to have a wider and better perspective.
>>

>>36558247
Damn dude thanks I feel better kind of now. I'm in my early 20s

I'm scared to get old and have my memory legitimately start getting bad. My greatest fear is getting alzheimer's - my grandma has it. It looks like a perpetual bad acid trip. I'd want to be euthanized if I got it.

>>
>>36558443
>>36558461
also although words can limit our ideas, our brains are very limiting as well, so you'd do well to realize that thinking in terms that literally nobody else can understand (because you can't articulate them) is liable to a great amount of error due to being all in your head rather than in multiple heads and on paper/computers.
>>
>>36558322
But consider this, even without Alzheimer's your memory would have faded completely with your death. And that's for a good reason too, you should be just as afraid of your ability to remember as you are of your ability to forget. You should also be thankful for both. For now you are the way you are, enjoy it, stop worrying about what you will become, you will become nothing eventually so stop worrying so much.
>>
I mean, I have terrible brain fog and derealization so I guess I am,kind of crazy. I always feel like I'm dreaming. Nothing seems like it's really happening, even though I know it is. My consciousness and memories are all so murky

The first quite often leads into the second.
>>
>>36558461
Then consider me retarded my good friend, because I didn't write it wrong the first time, it being a contradiction is part of the point.

>>36558509
Just as liable as the collective being wrong. If something can be right or wrong then it will be both, and it will be neither and everything in between all at once.

>>36558699
Your ideas will never spread if you don't find a way to articulate them better. Or if there's some other method by which people will figure out what you're saying, could you articulate that?

If you're curious about what insanity is like you could take some drugs, especially psychadelics. Or do some research on mentally ill people. It's not incomprehensible, just have to learn about it because society generally shoves it under the table.

It's because that motherfucker tries to simplify things to the extreme so much that he makes them extremely complicated. Just making sense of his sentences puts your subconscious on his side logic wise, since he is trying to make a point about the notion of things becoming what they are not, when they try to be more of what they are.
You have to literally not understand what he is trying to tell you, in order to ever actually disprove what he is trying to convince you of. In short, this motherfucker is scary, because he either put in the effort to construct his shit like that on an image board, or his shit comes out of his mouth like that casually without him having to put effort into it, both possibilities are creepy as fuck in my opinion.
And the funny thing is, OP made a thread about being afraid of going crazy, and this guy shows up, making OP read some pretty "crazy" shit with his mind's voice. Even if OP forgets this whole day, his subconsciousness will always remember that train of logic these posts lead him down, and the motherfucker knew without a doubt that would happen when he wrote those posts.

I agree but I'm still pretty sure that pretty much everyone is a bit insane and there are plenty of truly insane people all over the place.
I say that everyone is a bit insane because I haven't met hardly anyone that wishes to suspend their subjective perspective in favor of seeing things as objectively as possible. Not like it's possible to be objective, but it seems to me that the fundamental behavior of "I have an opinion, so I have to defend it as my own" is just flawed. We should be our own critics as much as the critics of other people. Many people acknowledge this flaw in humanity but precious few actually try to relieve themselves of it.
Sorry for going off on a bit of a tangent, this is something I'm a bit passionate about.

Dude, this isn't a physical act where you ask for a time stamp, this guy did actually think these things, and write them down in a post, and these things are crazy, weather he did it to be edgy or not doesn't matter, his brain is still capable of going further down the crazy line than mine is at least.

I'm not either of them though, not the first crazy guy or the guy that tried to build a theory on why the crazy guy was saying crazy shit. I just thought your reply was a bit shallow considering; he was trying to say that that guy's point is explicable, and in explaining it to yourself you somewhat proved it to yourself. Im not saying he was right. I'm just saying you didn't provide an argument to disprove him, you just said he was wrong and name called him.

Well sanity is defined as
>the ability to think and behave in a normal and rational manner; sound mental health.
from google so I'm trying to use that definition. Insanity means thinking and/or behaving irrationally and/or abnormally.
Objective is defined as
>not influenced by personal feelings or opinions in considering and representing facts.
also from google.
>>"I have an opinion, so I have to defend it as my own" is just flawed.
>what do you mean. this doesn't make a whole lot of sense
I mean the thought pattern which we naturally follow where we consider things according to a single perspective attached to ourselves is a pattern which is inherently flawed. One perspective can never be a complete picture of something. I guess this is a philosophical position but I believe that perception simply cannot be trusted because it is subjective (subject to our various biases). There is not such thing as an objective source of information but science is built around the idea that data collection and peer review can create significantly more solid (unchanging and widely applicable) information. There are limitations to science still of course.
But the core idea that I'm trying to get across is that we cannot give absolute trust to our senses/perceptions/thoughts, and consequently we cannot give absolute trust to anything. Because of this, we must constantly be open to the idea that we could have literally everything "wrong" in some way.

>>36559859

>inb4 lol you were just on psychedelics

I've taken acid once and it was at that time that I knew that I was/am really close to some form of crazy. Like I was walking along and all of a sudden someone lifted the blankets from the ground to reveal the yawning precipice just inches away.

On the come-up, i started to sense that people were watching me, could hear me breathe, were recording me maybe, even though i was with a friend (who also took some) in his room, i had bought a bag of airheads earlier and there was a picture of a face on it, and i got this sense that the eyes on that face were watching me. it wasn't just fear, i understood in some sick sense that i really was being watched, that everyone was out to get me, such thoughts made sense to the extent that i just knew it to be true, it was paranoia and it was beyond believing because i could feel myself being convinced.

if my friend wasn't there, i think i would've crawled into a corner or closet and scribbled in my notebook the entire time about how everyone was listening in on me and how i was a waste of life and space and how exactly in insane detail people were watching me and out to get me. and the worst part was that if that happened, i would not have come back from that trip sane, because there wouldn't be doubt in my mind that such paranoia were real.

i still feel those thoughts sometimes, sometimes more and sometimes less. instances like >>36559819 happen in the daytime and those moments are filled with fear, where i feel my thoughts are only barely in control. i've been getting more and more afraid of seeing things, like shadow people when you've taken too much amphetamines. i get scared looking into my reflections.

if i took too much benedryl or something, i think i'd be gone for good. thank god the barrier is drawn back up. yeah i have brain problems but the creeping feeling of impending psychosis was never made so clear to me before.

I doubt a full on sociopath is fun if you are conscious about how disconnected you are from society.

Maybe some people here enjoy it but I can't. The worst part about this all is that I have a strong desire to be social but I am so fucking awful that I fudge all my extended social situations and I already am seen as "that guy". I think that's what is really killing my mental health

Christ you are fucking awful person. You're literally just replying out of rage. Instead of realizing that you might know something that I don't and you could enlighten me and add to the discussion you just make fun of me. What do you think is the result of that? Everyone else thinks you're a cunt and you've done nothing helpful for anyone. Just leave if that's all you want to do.

The thing is, ideas like this make a "kind" of sense. They don't make sense, they aren't rational, they aren't verifiable, but you understand what they're talking about. I understand what you're saying exactly

I simply say to you, that there is nothing wrong with thoughts like these as long as you don't lose sleep at night over them. Everyone thinks some weird shit. Legitimate philosophers have been known to think some weird shit

I don't know

and if you really think all I did was state the simple fact that reality is subjective, then you didn't read everything I said.

In the sense that there's no way we can disprove that from being the case, and it's possible to understand metaphorically and philosophically as a concept or hypothesis. Not in a literal way as in "I see what you're saying holy fuck it's true" but more "I see what you're saying and I can't disprove that because it's an unfalsifiable proposition", but keep in mind there are infinitely many of those of all sorts

how do you know its "unfalsifiable"

my point wasn't what i was like on psychedelics, it's how i thought afterwards and what i am like now. the trip itself was like a trigger that didn't fully catch because my friend was there and blah blah blah. i guess i really didn't emphasize that.

in the back of my mind, i am now aware that i have these paranoid thoughts that i know i sort of believe, and under duress i think i would believe them completely. legitimately believe that you are being recorded, being watched, and there are people out to get you, and legitimately think they make a lot of sense.

i feel that i am losing control of how i perceive reality. i feel more and more compelled to see strange images or apparitions. i was running on a treadmill in the evening the other day, and i had to stop, i was getting freaked out by some amorphous spectre-like scariness, i couldn't stop being afraid of it appearing, and i literally had to force myself to imagine a cute anime girl to get rid of that thought. i then took a shower but i was so afraid of blinking because i wasn't sure what i would see when i opened them. if i imagine something scary, i am afraid that i can't even control whether i'm imagining it or not. do you know what you feel like after taking too much adderall and you see shit in the corners of your eyes and paranoid? but now you're sober.

there are other things too, like the idea/thought/feeling that things make too much sense (synchronicity). but that doesn't bother me. honestly, what gets me is the fear and paranoia, emotional malaise and quite honestly an impending sense of doom. if this stuff were purely philosophical then i wouldn't give as much of a shit.

>>36560433
it was 1 tab of acid, my first and only time. not strong at all.

i can't take acid again. any psych is too much for me because unless i am happy and positive there's no way it wouldn't push me over the edge. i can almost guarantee that i will utterly lose my grip on reality and i will not return to earth.

Anon this feels like you've experienced minor PTSD and have developed a generalized anxiety disorder

It feels really specific and LSD-ish even because bad trips are literally just over-extended anxiety attacks coupled with quasi-schizophrenic loose associations

I'm not going to say "it's just in your head" but I will say something similar because it matters - this isn't anything to do with acid, it's a general mental issue which you developed because of a traumatic experience and it can be treated the same way anyone's generalized anxiety can be.

So if there's any shit like "Dude that LSD, fuck" in your mind, realize it's just anxiety.

Don't know if i'm reassuring you on something you don't care about, but I know I had thoughts like, "fuck is this something more...?", no it's just anxiety. Don't worry

fear makes me afraid, don't know what you want me to say. it's fear from seeing apparitions and paranoia of others watching/out to get me. i just wanted to clarify that this isn't "oho look at me i just discovered solipsism."

>>36560929
my concern is that i already had pre-existing anxiety/depression and a stint in a mental hospital before i took acid (which was about 2 or 3 years ago). i've had shittiness with anxiety before but it's not tinged with this flavor of fear. those aforementioned instances, it really doesn't feel like anxiety, it's more like a hyperreal horror movie.

overall it wasn't even a bad trip, the bad moment lasted probably all of 5 minutes. i don't ever think 'dude that lsd, fuck', i think 'dude i gotta keep it together.' i don't blame lsd or even think of it when i get stressed. none of what i felt/thought while tripping felt foreign to me, and honestly i think any psychedelic could have done this.

I've had some crazy hallucinations too anon, my first couple trips I kept seeing miniature crowds of people forming out of dust and they would keep walking towards each other into piles.
Then late at night I could swear I saw humanoid beast like silhouettes lounging at me from the shadows as I went to piss,
as well as a pale woman standing on my kitchen counter.
I usually just laugh it off and say bring it on half sincerely, but it can truly make my imagination come to life.

I just worry that I'm so autistic I actually say what I hear in my head without knowing it and everyone's too polite to ask wtf is wrong with me.

Like, "fuck did I just say that and forgot that I said it...?"

Sorry anon but I laughed way too hard at your post, lmfao

Let me just tell you though that even people without any mental disorders are really underwhelmed at life. That I can say truly
>>
i cant poop without medication because im afraid im sending the tactile sensations and the feeling of disgust that im doing just that to friends and family.
also unironically a nevernude, because if i see myself nude i have "pictures" of it and i'll telepathically unwillingly share it

Lol that's like saying everyone who speaks french is speaking nonsense because you don't understand it.

Those happen to most people I think. Remember that we are locked in perpetual "I have no mouth and I must scream" mode. What you see in others is a greatly silenced version of what they really are.
