I've always been an outdoors type of person, but I recently noticed just how much time I spent online. Some changes had to be made. I ditched social media and my smartphone and have limited my online activity significantly. So far, so good. Go outside, my friend. Lots of adventures await you. A nice hike thru the woods will help clear your mind. Wow, you found one of my earliest (and cringiest) posts here... I can't deny I still spend a lot of time at the computer, but my outlook on things isn't as overly negative as it was then. I'm glad to hear you've made some progress in that regard, my friend! Being outdoors more is something I need to try too, weather permitting. Edited November 13, 2019 by Tacodidra 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flutterstep 46,298 November 13, 2019 Share November 13, 2019 (edited) I always have and always will. I’ve tried the whole friendship thing in real life and it’s not my cup of tea; MLP has only put an unrealistic expectation on the whole concept. Being on my computer all the time has given me enjoyment and knowledge I wouldn’t get anywhere else. Sure, there’s times I feel lonely and worthless, but the silver lining is I could be so much worse off. Being poor, unhealthy, homeless and fighting for freedom would be far worse alternatives.

Sherem 4,807 November 13, 2019 Share November 13, 2019 do to a political situation, I have not spend lots of time here in my PC because we have been on the watch for rioters or criminals in the streets that would like to take advantage of my country's unrest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Here No Longer 5,270 November 13, 2019 Share November 13, 2019 (edited) That's me, and a lot of that time is spent arguing with the dullest tools in the shed... The people who get triggered by how I play a character in a video game because it isn't meta, the hypocritical right, and some of the others of the absolute dumbest.

They call me Loyalty 1,941 January 21, 2023 Share January 21, 2023 On 2016-12-14 at 7:58 AM, zerox said: So I spend most of my day in front of my computer. I don't have much to do as I'm unemployed, I'm disappointed that my father passed away in Oct of this year, I don't have much friends (I could use some more internet friends). Well does anyone else spend most of their days in front of the PC? I am sorry to hear about your father. And I hope you are doing well. Also, I do the same thing. There is an escape inside the screen. You can live other lives and stories without getting hurt. Losing yourself in fantasy. It is all I ever wanted. Because it always felt like I am hovering over reality. And a part of me wants to fall into it for once. It is the part that wants to fight, even when I know I am too weak. But you have been running away for too long, and the fear has become too great. Dissociative disorder is a predonminant factor in this family. Most people in the latest generation are very self-destructive. For me, this is the understanding that sooner or later you are gonna fall. And it is gonna eat you alive. Because you are too weak to survive. You always were. Because you were not meant to survive to begin with. My mother was extremely ill when she was born and would have died without intesive medical intervention. And because of her unmerited survival, this weakness got passed on. This is not how nature works. Because this is what happens now. I happen. This is the animal understanding inside of me that seeks self-destruction. Because it knows it is wrong. It knows I am wrong. Because this is not how life is supposed to be. Our family is basically a group mental patients that survived because of external support. But without it, it would have been what was always meant to happen. So, there is this unrealistic perception of the world inside my head. Like a dream that keeps me safe from the realization. And since this realization is inescapable, because it is yourself. Most of us dissociate. It was a mistake born of misplaced good will. Understand nature. This is the reason it disposes of the weak. Because the strong have to suffer now. Like my grandfather suffered when he had to shoulder the useless weight of his defective son and daughter until he died. Or my own friend. I don't know how the genetic material could have deteriorated so much. But there has to be a way to identify these problems so the life of the child can be ended. Because healthy and productive people are gonna suffer, otherwise. And when I reach into the core of my mother, or my uncle. It is the same as with me. They don't want to be here, because they should not be here to begin with. Sometimes is a mercy to end a life sooner. But this is the real answer for my addiction. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
