| >vague things on general
*in general, duh
| woop, i was pretty sure i was creating a thread in /u/
my bad
this whole thing is really getting to me
| Nah, don't off yourself. I guess you are still quite young? Still a teenager? Don't mean to offend by that. As you get older, things will not faze you as much, you start not giving a shit. May not be true for everyone but that's what happened to me and a lot of others I know. Anyway, I recommend you read Epictus and Marcus Aurelius for starters, stoic philosophy might help you a great deal. For real, check it out on the internet, you don't even have to buy a book. Good luck g/u/rl.

nah, haven't been a teen for a few years already. and i'm pretty sure i gave less shits before than now
idunno, it's hard to pick any kind of philosophy or new outlook up from books through a heavy dose of skepticism
| >>181113 I'm a skeptic myself but that doesn't mean I can't apply "book knowledge" when it fits my life and values and makes sense to me. You could just give it a go with an open mind and see what resonates with you. Or don't, it's your life, you are the master :) - I wish you all the best and hope you can find inner peace.

| i dunno what to do
i'm stressed out enough already about my past and future and a lot of vague things on general
but that's not it
my niece really gives me a lot of trouble and i have nowhere to run
she's like 4 but she has some issues so she just screams a lot and runs around grabbing and biting things she's not supposed to do that to or climbing furniture and whatever sometimes proceeding to fall from it and scream even more
i just feel on edge constantly, even considered suicide
