Are you taking an antidepressant? SSRI?

I felt this way for a month or two when I started taking paxil. It's called derealization. It was uncomfortable.

I have to sleep right now,
I don't visit 4/pol/ often, but this was a surprisingly fun thread.

Kek bless this thread and Kek bless each and everyone of you anons.

Link to previous thread?

Where did her body go, wtf??

greenscreen.

I don't take and pharmaceuticals and neither should anyone.
I know antidepressant's literally give you depression if you stop taking them while making you feel numb when you're on it.

Red Ice radio has whole interviews with people who use to work for big pharma spilling the beans how they would coax doctors into over prescribing knowingly harmful pills.

I bet Molyneux has video on them, he always has based content.

May as well kek post. This timeline resurrected an Egyptian god for kek's sake.

I think Trump's entry into the race caused another shift off our previous world-line, different than the one that shifted us from Berenstein to Berenstain on 9/11. Maybe I was/am just crazy, but before he entered it seemed like a sure chain of events was forseeable, Jeb/Hillary with Clinton winning and getting a second term. That scenario being disrupted feels 'wrong', in a way that's great for us.

Hope to hear from you.

>tfw beranstein bears never existed

They've worked well for me.

If I would've been born before SSRI's I have no doubt I would have to be institutionalized. I had panic attacks to the point where I almost couldn't leave bed.

I once hyperventilated while driving, to the point where my fingers and toes went numb. I thought I was having a stroke and called an ambulance.

I don't feel any side effects now, except a decreased sex drive. Small price to pay for me.

>Fermi paradox

The fermi paradox is retarded. There's only a very small period of time in which a civilization will be emitting detectable signals. After developing technology it's only a short matter of time until the encryption makes it undetectable from regular static. The odds of two civilizations within range of eachother in both distance and time being in their development stage where they can emit and detect but haven't brought their encryption to that level is incredibly unlikely

Everytime I watch porn for hours, I feel like I'm transported to a different dimension.

Anyone else get this?

this is the dawning of the age of aquarius

will we go up or down in consciousness?

I'm pretty tall I am saying up

To me it feels like culture was paused around early 2000s which is why we have bands that should've been dead a long time ago still on the radio and all this nostalgia.

...

>shifted us from Berenstein to Berenstain on 9/11
Haven't heard it connected to that date before, what's the evidence?

I read the Kyballion years ago and while it changed my thinking I don't know how it's relevant to the thread.

I took them on and off for 6 months. Prozac and Seroquel. 150mg Prozac, 300mg Seroquel. I've been off of them for 8-ish or so months and I'm just now starting to feel clear headed. I feel a lot better, really. They're awful.

It's not, that's for the person I replied to.

things are getting fundamentally transformed

nature as we know it has changed for good

there is no going back by now you know it deep down

It's nothing, when you see a thread like this created by ONE FUCKING PERSON, everyone starts to think it then more threads are created and it just keep going

You dumb fucks, it's all logic

>B-but what about pepe! and how we made the main stream media talk about it!
Well no shit, that's logic, when something get's popular enough, but have unpopular ideology, of course it'll get media coverage, just look at black lives matter, what i'm trying to say, if enough people come together and do something, it'll make it into the public. For a random example if a bunch of people got together in California and spray painted a bunch of frogs on public buildings everywhere, NO FUCKING SHIT IT WOULD BE COVERED BY MSM

You are all being paranoid, if you want to continue this shit go to

this is 2016, where social justice and accept-ism is the norm in society, so of course if a racist meme becomes popular people will freak about it, use your heads you fucking schizos

Berenstein Cabal detected

Nothing more than a hunch, other anons have stated that as the day things felt like they shifted out of the previous 'age' and into the current one.
Whether this is metaphorical based on the West's perception changing in unison or legit reality-jumping I don't even know.

>Berenstein Cabal detected
i dont even know what the fuck that is

What we're experiencing goes beyond Pepe.
Pepe is the humorous icing on the cake.

There's also a difference when the news reports on a cartoon frog and when a presidential candidate wages war against it.

Just giving my 2 cents but I don't think it is. Why?

When I was younger I was diagnosed with Generalized Anxiety disorder, GAD. A part of that was derealization, which mean I felt like I wasn't here, or real, or reality was changing and shit. Of course that wasn't happening, and the chemicals/adrenaline in my brain are all on max drive and made me neurotic, while seeking/seeing patterns that weren't there, like solopsism and other forms of thinking.

What I'm getting at is, this election and this year as whole have been so tumultuous and energetic it's making us all feel overworked and anxious. Checking the computer all day, constantly going to social media, worrying about things that don't directly effect us, getting constant gratification, it's extremely unhealthy for your brain.

Are you surprised that humans have thoughts like this and feel this way at a time when we are farthest from our natural habitat and hormones? Instead of being outside, moving, playing, not worrying, and being comfy at night with a steak around a fire, we're doing drugs and sitting in front of screens for hours. It's a travesty.

So all I'm saying is, you guys are freaking yourselfs out like I was. You could take pills sure, or disregard all of this and ignore me, and continue to indulge in this conspiracy. But do me a small favor, a stranger on the internet.

Turn off the computer, don't sign into jewbook or twitter or anything, don't play any games. Lift some weights, go outside, walk around, read a book. Do this for a few days. See how you feel. Seriously. Try it, because I did, and I beat my anxiety and don't worry about shit like this, which was horrible. Not feeling like you're real, or possessed, or gonna die. Just go outside, look at the trees, fucking anything.

I passed out the day before 9/11 and when i woke up I had a horrible feeling that something really bad was going to happen. I asked my parents to call our relatives and find out if they were ok.

I havent felt the same since.

Whut?

I don't worry, and no user should.
It's more of the starker disconnection from normies and the sheer movie-esque plot that's unfolding in the world.

I'm not worried, I'm just baffled on this hilarious time line ride.
And very optimistic

How long did it take for you to tame your GAD? I ask because I'm going through exactly what you're describing.

Will quitting porn help or nah?

Of course you don't! *wink wink* right?

I was having pretty severe derealization episodes in the past months but now it's a little better

Take at least 500mg of magnesium sulfate a day, and 50mg zinc supps too. Take my word for it.

I know what you mean, and it has that movie quality because we're so invested in it. For those who supported Ron Paul in 2012, I'm sure it would have felt the same if he won, and the "it's happening" meme manifested itself everywhere, or even kek, which I have fun with and occasionaly indulge in for shits and giggles, but at the end of the day it's just a joke frog picture. Clinton and such post about him because we put him everywhere, they're not retarded. If democrats posted a picture of a camel in a tophat named keek or something everywhere for months, we would notice too, especially if he was a communist that espoused the killing of right wingers or something. That is a noticeable image that trends.

Considering we have that, coupled with a crazy presidency, it seems surreal. But people with a broader understanding like Scott Adams and Ann Coulter predicted his rise, we've seen it throughout history. Anyone with an understanding of that past was practically waiting for his nomination and betting on it, like I was and I'm sure others were.

The way to beat panic attacks without drugs is to short circuit the positive feedback loop. You know, whether anxiety sets it off or physical stimulation, either way it is the fear that makes it worse, and then you feel uncomfortable and that discomfort makes you more scared of it and so on. You have to challenge the panic attack to do its worst to you. Do this inside your head and try to mean it. It will shut the panic attack off. Then go out of your way to trigger it, take a hot shower or whatever can set it off for you and demand that it kill you. The panic attack will fail to materialize and you'll be free of them for the rest of your life.

It took me a minute to figure out how to manipulate potentials as things. 2023

>GAD
my nigger

i used to be constantly anxious to the point that i would be hyperaware while asleep. one time my dad came home from work at around 11 pm, i was asleep, and i was already out of bed and holding a cricket bat by the time he was in the door.

medications don't do shit, an important thing to remember is that you are the result of billions of years of evolution. if you are constantly anxious, there is a reason for it and it's very rarely genetic.

there are three common causes for anxiety (as in disorder level anxiety, not just normal anxiety) i've seen:

1. actual threats. if your safety is not guaranteed your brain will naturally start operating at 110% all the time and as a result you'll go into the fight or flight when basically anything happens. in this case, your best bet is to get yourself away from the threat to your safety.

2. constant stimulation. if you have a bunch of different things going on all at once for a long time, your brain will eventually adapt and will monitor everything. the results end up being the same as the first cause. in this instance the solution is to separate yourself from the stimuli, and create a clear set of goals with well defined punishments and rewards. you will feel better instantly.

3. a pre-trained response. in this instance, nothing is actually posing a threat to you in any way. however, your brain has already trained itself to treat something as a threat and will create anxiety to get you away from it. in this case, the only solution is to physically confront the thing that makes you anxious. it will teach your brain that there is nothing to be worried about and your anxiety will vanish almost as quickly as it came.

All of these

T. Citizen of Earth 2.0

It just sort of went away after like a year. I didn't even notice. Eventually I realized, my god, I haven't had a panic attack or derealiization in months, fuck yeah.

I basically just made lifestyle changes that a normal, healthy human should make. There is a reason why normies are so happy. Because they're ignorant? Sure, but we can't afford that luxury. But also because they're not stressing on image boards about the election and worrying about reality and berenstein bears and other bullshit.

What did I do? I started lifting and running. I started dieting. I read for 2 hours a day while I walk in nature. I reduce computer time. I reduce areas of stress and anxiety and try to understand 2 things, fundamentally:

Things will always go wrong, and they will always solve themselves. I didn't get a job? Nig deal, worrying about that just slows me down. I'll get one eventually.

Realizing that reduced my stress massively. EVERYTHING that has EVER gone wrong with me solved itself and worked out in the end. So I stay positive and high energy, like the Donald, and don't take life to seriously. Just enjoying myself. Like in the life of Brain by Monty Python, "always look on the bright side of life".

It's cliche but really let it sink in, do more then just repeat the phrase to yourself in your head. Live it, practice it, like a philosophy.

...

You are halfway right I think.

There is definitely a positive feedback loop.

The first panic attack is triggered by something concrete. The next panic attacks are from fear of having more panic attacks. You are right that this loop has to be broken.

For me I don't get caught up in them mentally anymore, but I can feel the physical effects. Essentially it is your fight or flight system activating. For me it activates at semi-random times.

I think for myself I'm legitimately chemically unbalanced. Same thing happens to everyone in my family. SSRI's make me feel much better. I don't feel much side effect from it, just less anxiety.

I don't think they are for everyone though.

The other day I had one so bad that I wound up breaking down and crying in front of my folks. Thought I was going to die right then and there. Felt like such a little bitch, but it's interesting how the brain can mess with you like that.

Either way I'm sick of it, can't live like this any more so I'm going to try working out again and adapt that "fuck it" philosophy you seem to have.

I'll look for some supplements of these.

yeah I blame it on the 4 hits of acid I took last summer

there truly is no way back, sorry guys.

Nothing is real, except the Jewish threat.

witnessed

That's very accurate my man. You need to remove percieved threats or learn how to deal with them while recognizing they're not dangerous. Last time I had a panic attack I splashed some water on my face, drank some water, and sat there letting my chest tighten and the world crumble around me. I thought about some ancient warrior, Alexander the great or something, looking at me like a pussy knowing full well they have faced actual threats. That helped me put things in context, knowing cavemen lived happier lives not trifling with mundane bullshit. I went from a neurotic mess to one of the calmest, cool under pressure guys in the world.

>I once hyperventilated while driving, to the point where my fingers and toes went numb. I thought I was having a stroke and called an ambulance.

Wow dude, just wow. I had the same thing happen to me when I took the bar exam. Couldn't type because my fingers were completely shaky and felt cold as ice. Same thing happened again when I was seasick on a deep sea fishing boat in the bahamas. Happened one more time after my girl broke up with me.

I never took antidepressants but instead focused on breathing techniques and meditation when I feel that type of stress / panic attack come on. I'm not saying it can work for you too, but it's better than just jumping straight to the medication senpai.

Good luck

Thread is starting to resemble a fucking eerie T.Stock/Gate convo on infinitychan last week...

>But also because they're not stressing on image boards about the election and worrying about reality and berenstein bears and other bullshit.

I realized about this about a month ago. My life pretty much spiraled out of control this past year over this shit. At this point I'm just going to wait until the election is over. This election is pretty damn historical and since I've already invested this much time and energy I feel like I may as well pull through. Normiedom can wait

>this report will close in 3...

I know what you mean, I check Cred Forums and twitter and the news religiously for new info and shit, but I try to just filter out the bullshit. Stick to the election, the facts and reality, keep my feet on the ground. Once people start talking about mandela effect and kek and reality and illuminati demons running the world and all that other shit I just learn to laught it off and not consider it, like that illuminati insider user that comes on Cred Forums every now and then, he's just some roleplaying faggot with a good vocabulary and decent grasp on pop culture/history, nothing more. Just ask yourself, what would Han Solo do? Their is a guy with a level head who could filter bullshit, my idol during my times of anxiety and panic attacks.

This seems so true objectively in my experience and I believe it. Feel like I conjured my gf. Ive been insanely spiritual for 16 years, Buddhism and Hinduism. Started with Daoism. Was super soar and wanted to go get a massage so bad and was thinking about going to maybe a Thai massage place but didn't want to get a dude. After 2 days on 3rd day met asian thai massage girl named Dao. 3 months later and we are like Lennon and Yoko Ono.

> nature as we know it has changed for good
> changed

Nothing changes... There is nothing new under the sun.
Nature is like a rubik game: The combinations could be endless, but the colors and rules are the same.

Consciousness is a dangerous word (An evil one to be precise), because it could be used on the
"individual context" creating a tricky anomaly: Reality could be produced by "demand" through choice.
So, everyone has now it own concept of reality and detached from "what is", therefore denying truth and producing
disorder.

But now (especialy on the age of aquarius) that effect will increase exponentially through the "lunarization"
of our society: Individualism, relativism, subjectivism are all woman characteristics.


Singularity is harmful
This would destroy humanity permanently.

Same. I hate taking the pills, but I swallowed my pride and tool them so I could finish my education. My family has mental health problems spanning further than ww1, I definitely would have a been a hermit reading books my whole life before now but I have an opportunity to live albeit quietly.

I realised I was having trouble facing reality so I stopped with the alcohol and realize I was just taxing myself in an unhealthy combination.

There happens to be quite a few of us that rely on medication on Cred Forums. I know it's sketchy but I remember what my life was like before effexor and I don't want to go back.
