This entry will be about anxiety problems. Do you have anxiety problems? Does your tongue get stiff whenever you talk to people of authority or really hot chicks? Are there certain situations that trigger certain symptoms like: heart palpitations, shortness of breath, nausea and chest pain? Are there certain situations that you fear so much that just thinking about them makes you sweat?

I’m not here to make fun of you my dear reader, if you have anxiety problems. I’m usually into the habit of making fun of other people’s shortcomings or disabilities, but not this time… because, my dear reader,I also have anxiety problems. I suspect this may be a result of being bullied back when I was really small. I never got a chance to get back at my bullies. My current inability to locate the whereabouts of my bullies and pummel the sweet bejesus out of them is giving me chronic anxiety, I believe.

My anxiety problem is intermittent, meaning it’s not always there. But I always have to watch out, in case it decides to rear its ugly head

My anxiety problems are wreaking havoc on my dating life, which is practically nonexistent right now. I’ve courted a total of two girls in my entire lifetime. (The word ”courted” is being used very liberally here) The others, I just give them hints or flirt with them and hope that they would court me in return. But they never do. So I just wait and wait for them until they get snatched up by other guys

I've developed a few ways to cope with my anxiety problems. Here are some of them:

Be badass

“What is the meaning of life?” The question has been pondered about by countless philosophers for centuries. It makes me wonder why… because I think it’s a pointless question. But I don’t think the question is pointless because I think that life has no meaning. I think it’s pointless because the question assumes that there should be a general standard for meaning and that it has to be defined external to the person asking the question.

There was a commercial before by the World wildlife foundation which I found to be a bit intellectually substandard. The commercial was about wildlife conservation. I don’t remember the exact words, so I will paraphrase: “It is perhaps the greatest question man has ever asked. We know that plankton exist to feed the whales, we know that zebra exist to feed the lions, we know that (insert species here) for (insert species here). What about us? What is our purpose?

I didn’t like the commercial for a variety of reasons. One, because it states that the inane question “what is our purpose” is the greatest question man has ever asked. Two, because it seems to assume that there is a universal purpose for why we are all here

From a lion’s perspective, a zebra’s purpose may be to satisfy its hunger. But from the zebra’s perspective, the purpose of its existence may be to get through life without satisfying the lion’s hunger. Purpose comes from either the lion’s or the zebra’s intent to achieve its own respective goals -Goals that are diametrically opposed to each other.

One may say that the purpose of fire is to give us warmth or to heat our food. But fire didn’t come into existence to serve man. Fire existed and then man found purpose for it. But that purpose only exists to those with minds to see benefit from fire. From fire’s perspective, it doesn’t care what man does to it. Fire itself has no intrinsic purpose for existence except for the subjective interpretations of purpose that man assigns to it.

Meaning is de(Read More)
