I had a psychological break once. The pressure was so great that I snapped. It's just the nature of opposing forces. It's got to give and that is dependent on what you can balance at any moment. People avoid pushing themselves to the breaking point. Something pushes you there, it is not...
The primary means of getting what you want has been through force. Men can project force. As Civilization spread this continued until no wild tribes existed to resist and after WW2 we have been in stalemate proxy wars. It seems that technology cannot go away as long as we have cities. Men...
I am not god because things are out of my control. I rely upon an external source for guidance. Especially when I've been sad, I shake inside, God keeps me still. God protects me from the chaos in myself. A person can only experience God the way I do from exposure to trauma and brokenness. God...
Cynicism is the view that humans are just animals nothing more. It is a view against transcension. Beyond physical form. Not that we are without physical form but that we are not material in nature. The soul is not material it has no form. It is amorphous. This is why we are the same person over...
The problem with becoming God is that you replace the holy spirit for a medium. Then you are subject to any form of spirit. We mustn't mix up the body and spirit. The body is a channel for the spirit. So any condition of sensual misconduct will create a certain spiritual force. This is what the...
The debate between rationalism and empiricism is that in empiricism the senses should not be the way they are because there should only be random sense experiences. The seeming organization is random. Rationalism says the organization of the senses is true. Empiricism says the senses are what...
Actually, I am just meta ;)
But really, you can be self-aware and still be contorted inside.
I have psychosomatic problems that are similar to autism and might just be the same thing.
In fact, I feel numb all the time to my emotions. And being unaware of the inside of my body and head. Just...
I experienced a lot of apathy after graduating from high school. I was asking myself a lot of questions about the meaning of life. Purpose. Value. but mostly in the context of the Tech Singularity did I find hope. I pretty much had no friends so I had very little to do. I was kinda lonely. And...
Autism is stuckness. Schizophrenia is too much fluidity. Both produce problems in self-regulation.
My self-regulation is stuck.
Now there is a different form of autism that has to do with the theory of mind.
When theory of mind is impaired they call it autism. But when you are stuck they may...
It turns out that the brain in autism has an unbalanced distribution of cells and higher density than normal. This leads to sensory-motor problems and shutdowns from anxiety and overwhelmingness. They just can't handle the noise.
I can see many of these traits in myself. I am always trying not...
As it turns out, I was talking to my insurance provider who looked at my chart and it said I was diagnosed on the spectrum in 2004. I do not know what it is though. I'd say for me it is feeling stuck and anxious. It is some sort of asymmetry in brain function. Or the network is connected up so...
But it can't be nonsense if it implies something. Example the alien language. We know it is not random because it looks like an intelligence created it. We would not do the same with the wind in the sand. Another way of saying it is that it is predictable therefore implies. Predicting intelligence.
I easily got 94% INTJ because the questions were stereotypical, to begin with, INTP/INTJ. Telling them apart was not difficult. The philosophical questions also were stereotypical because both INTP and INTJ can take positions on the same things.
The only reason I may seem not INTJ is that INTJ...
Hypotheticals always trouble my mind.
I like to view things as a win-win.
Last night I dreamed I had a girlfriend.
I saw a cute girl at the gas station the other day.
The purpose I have right now is not to feel bad. I have psychological and physical needs. First I have bipolar depressive...
The fundamental flaw in science.
"Time" is in my experience but I cannot prove it.
Many things in a person's experience cannot be proven scientifically.
The question is, can anything be proven scientifically.
A flaw exists where real proof is said to be only in experience.
Real proof is said to...
The brain is a black box. We really do no know what is shared between two of them. But what we take in by observation is somewhat comparable. When information is exchanged this shifts the balance in the psyche. The psyche is unsettled and must settle. That is where meaning takes place. It is the...
I shift inbetween dark and light. Hope and hopelessness. I do get what you mean. I try and see the good in the bad. It is like we must experience the emotion of negativity to let go of its hold on us. We must self embody the negative to control or to mater it rather than be a slave to it. To...
Time is Perception. Perception is a model of internal and external "worlds". What separates us from coherent, nonrandom integration is trama. Trama and randomness break down cohesion. the world must be stable to operate in. Time is seen in the events that happen as the world model is updated...
You do not need to simulate the entire universe. We can predict the trajectory of the earth billions of years into the past and future. All that is needed are constants and laws. Constants are stable anchor points in which measurements and projections can be made. Records of the past mean some...
chemistry is not random, it follows the laws of physics, there are rules to what is meaningful and not. It is in the neurophysiology. The cyber loop of inside and outside.
I think that the serious effect of lack of meaning is a deficit in needs. Like love or food but in terms of neurochemistry. When you feel bad there is a reason for it. Like dehydration is caused by a lack of water. To go on living, psychologically a purpose is needed otherworlds it is like...
If meaning were totally subjective 2 + 2 could equal 5. The objective imprints into the subjective and is why we can know about the outer reality as is. We are imperfect mirrors of objective reality because objective reality encapsulates us and not the other way round. Godels incompleteness.
warning: (existentialism)
It seems there is a threshold where the will to live gives up and nothing is left to live for. A person that has something to live for can overcome adversity and pain and agony because they hold onto a force the perpetuates them. If that force is lost they are let...
ego death is the closest I've come to selflessness.
I was no longer in control, a higher force was.
I was not under my will, and that is the point.
There was no resistance from me. it just happened.
Selfless acts do happen. something else is guiding you.
Basically, you are asking about is the meaning of life.
I have said before on the forum that the meaning of life is homeostasis.
Whatever keeps homeostasis is justified in keeping my existence because life wants to live. What justifies nonexistence is extreme pain. Once pain becomes too high...
Getting out more is not that simple. I only know my family. I have no friends. For the longest time, I was too tired to get out of bed. Practically speaking the only solution is different anxiety meds to what I have now. I need to stop sleeping during the day.
Practical things relevant to me.
I...
I am trying to grasp my situation. I was told I was schizophrenic. I was told I was Autistic. But what do those terms really mean? I can't tell yet and that is what bothers me because I need to know. Because I still have problems. I have a lot of negative feelings that won't go away. I'm walking...
From what I gather it is how the brain uses the eyes and ears. The brain matures a lot slower. Slower crystalization. Slower pruning of unnecessary connections. Sensory data cannot be taken in. Aspergers is the same but crystallization is distributed such that normal development is sparse. The...
Aspergers has been placed under autism spectrum. Basically in autism, the mind in the baby is like oatmeal. They do not look at faces or socialize because everything in the brain is just mush. In Aspergers, only some of the brain halfway develops in this way. Parts get stuck. This leads to...
The Anima is a single entity behind several avatars. Avatar selection is in the unconscious of the individual but the Anima when it appears is equal to the unconscious needs of the individual. That is to say, the Anima is the unconscious becoming self-aware. This is mediated by the release and...
perfection requires seeing the imperfect.
correcting them by a slight push against resistance.
A disturbance dealt with by keeping balance.
become as balanced as possible.
keep your core stable.
let love come in.
John Legend - All of Me (Lyrics)
We both,
Perceive things internally and externally
Judge things internally and externally
Perception is Intention and Sensation
Judging is Feeling and Thinking
One function is the dominant function. It is either internal or external.
I do not see where anything changes.
@sushi what is new...
Fi passion (emotions are triggered and build up in the individual)
Ne external idea popping (revelations come from objects in the external world)
Si fuzzy (everything becomes out of focus)
Te empirical (thinks of things outside the self, external criteria, or objectives)
Ti rational (thinks inside the head, compares things to an internal standard)

Fe dispassioned (all passion is emptied leaving only objective...
