İnsanların büyük çoğunluğu yüzmeyi öğrenmeden yüzmek istemez. Ne anlamlı bir söz, değil mi? Yüzmek istememeleri doğal, çünkü karada yaşamak için yaratılmışlar, yüzmek için değil. Ve düşünmek istememeleri doğal, çünkü yaşamak için yaratılmışlar, düşünmek için değil! Evet, kim düşünürse, kim düşünmeyi kendisi için temel uğraş yaparsa, bunda ileri bir noktaya ulaşabilir; ne var ki, karayla suyu değiş tokuş etmiştir böyle biri ve bir gün gelir suda boğulur.
Sana dans etmeyi, oyun oynamayı ve gülümsemeyi, ama yine de halinden memnun olmamayı öğreteceğim. Ben de senden düşünmeyi ve bilmeyi, yine de halimden memnun olmamayı öğreneceğim.

do you ever get so annoyed at everything that you start to get pissed off at even little things like a spoon clinking against a bowl or sounds of people talking
I think it’s called sensory overload. It’s really common in people with anxiety
it can also be a result of sleep deprivation, stress, or ever dehydration !!
thanks i thought i was just a bitch

Simple
Bazen kendi bakış açımı nasıl sunacağıma o kadar odaklanıyorum ki, karşımdakinin umrunda olup olmadığı önemsiz bir ayrıntı gibi kıyıda köşede kalıyor. Aynısını yapan bir insan gördüğümde ortamdan uzaklaşasım geliyor.
Mental olarak çöktüm ama dışardan bakıldığında hayattan zevk alan bir şerefsiz gibi yaşıyorum
Tüm sırlarımızı, alışkanlıklarımızı ve pisliklerimizi kendimizi özel olduğumuza inandırmak için kullanıyoruz. Sadece bizim bildiğimiz o bilgiye sahip olmak yüzümüzde sinsi bir gülümsemeyi ve akıl almaz bir egoyu doğuruyor. Ve bu sırlardan vazgeçtiğimiz anda boş, sıradan ama özgür bir insan oluyoruz.
Self Judgement
Occasionally, you find yourself thinking about few things that you think people judge you about. But is that really the case. You know, most people don't care about anyone as they care about themselves. Don't you think, it's you that's judging yourself rather than some people who doesn't give a fuck about you.
I think it's one of your major problems. You don't know how to relax. People seem to fix that problem by smoking some weed, drinking alcohol or doing some other activity. But you can't do that, you try to do the same thing. But after a while, you feel the urge to show everyone that you're actually relaxed, you're normal. And it's making you feel judged again, by other people and by yourself.
Clearly you're judging yourself. It's not like you're a weirdo and you like who you are. It's more like "I hate who I am and I need to change it, look at all the stuff I do and accept that I'm actually a changed version of myself". This is forced, this is not okay. Why are you trying to show other people that. Why are you so needy.
When you're trying to make peace with yourself, you start to build an ego. You feel like you're superior to them. That's why you used to see all the socializing unnecessary. That's as bad as judging yourself, because you didn't actually stop judging yourself. You're just making excuses for the things that you can't seem to have.
I guess the only solution is to love yourself in a way that's not egoistic or narcissistic. Accept that everyone is having similar problems as you do. People are not what they seem like. Most of the time, you look at someone and think stuff like fuck my life, I've lived all my life in isolation while this person lived his life with lots of excitement and happiness. And then question yourself about why you couldn't do that. After blaming every possible thing in your life, you come to conclusion that you are the only problem. You just lack something that other people have.
But that's the wrong way to look at it. Everybody is different. You can't have what other people have or they can't have what you have. We're originals and we are significant in our own ways. Don't try to show off, be what you are. You've spent a big portion of your life to be good at stuff you'd like to do. That doesn't make you superior to other people. That just makes you someone who made a decision. Not a life changing decision but a simple decision.
Love yourself because everybody needs and deserves to be loved at least by themselves.
Social Anxiety
It starts with a little anxiety, one doubt is enough to trigger everything that follows it. First you feel questioned, judged. Few minutes later, you're already questioning why you're there. Why you're at that place at that moment. It's not you, it's some plastic model staying in your position trying to act like fake you. Once this happens there's no escape. You regret leaving your comfort zone till you get back to it. Everything that happens after that moment makes you stay away even more.
So what's the solution. You've already tried isolating yourself from the rest of the world, living in front of your computer for 5 fucking years. Did that help, did you feel a little bit satisfaction that no one judges you. No. So what do you need to do, force yourself to become social, or accept your situation. None of these have really worked out for you, did they?
But at least you're trying. You didn't give up. I guess that's your current hope. Is it more realistic than changing everything and expect it to solve all your problems?
You're focusing on a problem, not trying to solve chaos. That's good. It means you're taking responsibility. You don't use everything bad about your life as an excuse. If something is going bad, it should be solved one way or an another. Maybe some problems can't be solved easily. And it's okay to let them go. But be careful, that one problem can fuck up your life. Even if it's hard, you should not escape from that path.
Something about me
That you really don't care about.
A little joke about the situation you've been in earlier.
Something about sex, oh look at me I'm living my sexuality at full.
Throwing shit at other people, because they don't agree.
