Quote:Have you talked to a professional about your feelings, because you seem depressed to meYes, its faulty genetics. I inherited Asperger's syndrome, autism and personality disorders from both my mother and father that often lead me on downward spirals to self-hatred. Its a vicious cycle that repeats.
Quote:I'm getting slightly concerned.So what? Naturally, we've evolved, so you're "programming" to feel that way and be pro-life.
Why can't I cherish life only because its finite and eagerly anticipate my death whenever and wherever it comes? Because it scares you?
No I was worried that you might decide to do yourself in, if your cycle of misery and self loathing continues. Not scared, but concerned for you - that's just the way I am.
I'm sorry I bothered.
You are currently experiencing a lucky and very brief window of awareness, sandwiched in between two periods of timeless and utter nothingness. So why not make the most of it, and stop wasting your life away trying to convince other people that there is something else? The reality is obvious.
