Never fear things you can't prevent because there is nothing you can do to change them.

Only focus on things you can change, or the effort you put into life.

That alone will alleviate much anxiety.

Why would I fear cancer if there is nothing I can do (smoking aside) to prevent my cells from going wild?

I can't control the actions of a crazy person...why fear the threat?

We're all gonna die. You can only influence when it occurs, within reason. But don't fear death other than making yourself ready for it's outcome ... whatever that means to you.
Damn I was in a really good place in 2023 :wow:

Not really. It doesnt help to be anxious over something you can't control. The Outcome is the same whether you are chill or a nervous wreck; so you might as well chill.

You only worry or fear things that you can actually change.


I'd be more concerned with the method of death than the physical state of being dead . For example, I'm not trying to die from stage 93 cancer or Alzheimer's or some sht like that. In such a scenario I would hasten my own death.

@CopiousX in what ways would you hasten your death?

There are billions of souls that have walked this earth in the eons of time that have passed. My friend, I tell you, this ain’t your first go at it. And it ain’t gon be your last. Religion can help you live right so that you are born into favorable conditions in the future.

All you doers of evil, persist in your ways. And you will become wise…but at a painful cost.

Goodnight children.

:salute:

Insignificant posting from an insignificant poster
This Jamie Foxx thing and the Lance Riddikk thing hitting me different. It just makes me think about how I will handle my time and I get so anxious. Why is life so fragile. :to:


Ur attachment to life, while understandable and normal, isnt realistic, nor is it healthy.



The beauty about people like me who live one day at a time and like its our last, we have a full understanding the nothing is permanent and we are all mortals by design.



But you not only overthinking and having an existential crisis… it appears to bother you. And what that does is rob you of the moment. Live in the now breh. This shiit is a gift that shouldnt be squandered on the what if thots of manana.



Dont fret my pet.



Live, love, lose and jet set.



Bet.

Only thing I worry about is my parents

A physical life is a spiritual death

Morphine and no-parachute sky diving. Would be over in 0.002 seconds :wow:



instead of living in agony for years. :picard:



But again, this only the answer for a few rare life scenarios like debilitating disease, or chronic injury, or torture . Think ALS or Alzheimer's or flesh eating bacteria, or highest stage cancer , etc.


But suicide is rarely the answer because most earthly problems can be solved given enough time.
