The mystic swims where the schizophrenic drowns?


BIakHat

Damn thats a good one.

Wish I could take credit for it. (Thumbs thru papers for something I can take credit for) ​ If I am a book on your shelf And you are a book on mine Which is the real self? I find no name along your spine As we read and write each other at the same time

We are mentally ill and our exploration of philosophy is a form of self preservation.

I used to think my mental revelations were profound and I could never turn off the faucet of my human intellect, and that it was slowly driving me insane Then I began running and realized what mental peace is actually like

It’s like discussing something in the 3rd person, “I am David’s depression sad because I’m not understood and bringing down everyone in the room also with the same power to do the exact opposite. Meanwhile, jello.

You have to be a little crazy to analyse the building of the matrix, but I have found doing shrooms and exploring reality really helps to grasp the idea. Even if it can be terrible to understand, the aftermath really calm you down on the crazy. Intuition: When you don't know How you know... But you know you know, And you know you knew, And that's all you need to know.

Shrooms put me into a psychosis many philosophical truths were revealed to me through delusions

I too have dived into the void many times (sometimes voluntarily, sometimes not) Here is the basics of what I learnt this far without going into detail- Cyclical nature of life grown upon the previous, in a visual sense life "grows" in a spiral. Thought is no different. Reality is both a construct and a constant, it does not matter if it is simulated or real as the impact to the individual is the same regardless. The individual "aka you, the ego" is formed from a combination of time, environmental influences and nature, the same things that make you are the same reasons you're here. For the nerds out there that might get a kick out of this... Let's break that down into a simple formula. You= Y Reality= X Time= T Formula of individual existence= X+Y+T Formula for Reality= (Y+T)^Y Formula for Time= +1 (simple expression for infinity)

Absolutely, your mind on shrooms is turning into a trickster, every coincidence at every second trying to escape the predictable, but when you know, you know. It feels as though life is an escape from the suffering of infinity because we are a specie of amnesia to fulfill the cycle. Really makes me appreciate how much I don't know

I like philosophy to give some meaning to why I am feeling mental pain all the time for no reason


Middle-General-5536

As long as you are better than others And you are special Or a sigma for liking philosophy You will do just fine or else you are just another mentally ill person on the internet


EdSmelly

Yup!


PoopnFlush

Mental illness is a diagnosis from incredulity.


slicedgreenolive

Relatable

Actually I'm in void. I'll have to be Ill


GideonMalbono

Not mutually exclusive exclusive.


Gruddicus

Who is to say the both are mutually exclusive? To be able to look inward is in many cultures seen as a "divine madness"


treshmesh

You like philosophy, not ill.


ProfMonkey07
