The Hunt (2012) - Deeply moving film about being an outcast, judgment and Truth Manchester by the sea (2016) - Deeply moving film about the vicissitudes of life. (Forgive the verbose language, but nothing else quite encapsulates it!). Corey Affleck at his finest! Dead Poet Society (1989) - An emotional inspiration (Even outside of my teenage years!) Palm springs (2020) - Dream girl vibesss. Surprisingly outstanding film. Incident in a Ghostland (2018) - Vivid depiction of dissociation. Not for the faint heated. The Graduate (1967) - Relatable af. Well ...to some degree at least ! Midsommar (2019) - Needy reality vs Non-needy reality. Devastating opening sequence. Brilliant acting from the lead actress, especially in the opening sequence. ... Your need for love will make you blind. Gladiator (2000) - Stage blue at its finest, with an integrated stage red. Loyalty. Honour. Revenge. Perks of being a Wallflower (2012) - Amazing. Hard to put into words. (very relatable even outside of teen years). Great depiction of serious emotional issues/ adaptations. Its kind of a funny story (2010) - Especially for the non-normies among us, intensely relatable, yet surprisingly upbeat depiction of adolescent mental health issues/ adaptations. The Godfather (1972) - A genre of its own. Stage red posing as stage blue.

@funkychunkymonkey I am careful who I spend my time with, and with who I bring those subjects up with.

Yeeeeeeeee boiiiii. Am ready to nerd out on this one!

Heya! Let's see if we can help you out. I struggle with that as well. Maybe we can help each other out. What do you like to do in your day to day life? (If anything :))

@Vivaldo Suicide is an action driven by impurities. Impurities comprised of egoic defence responses to the various traumas of life. These impurities are like parasites upon us, and therefore are not us. We find ourselves in our intuition. Our intuition, or soul, is what is left once we are stripped of our impurities. And our intuition would generally never direct us to end our own lives. Therefore, generally we would never direct ourselves to end our own lives. Therefore, generally, no one ever commits suicides. It is their parasitical impurities that end up killing them. NB: I use generally in extreme circumstances, such as an act of heroism.

@Western Buddha If its really affecting you badly, EMDR. People laugh at it, but its a form of sexual assault imo. Look into PSTEC. Run the basic click tracks on the events, and you'll be a-okay

If anyone has a link to a similar thread, please feel free for that, as well.

It depends on your nature. An ADHD person usually does much better at a project if it is one of many projects. However, for others it is the opposite. HealthyGamerGG has some great information regarding this. Look for his discussions on elemental models (I.e. fire, wind type personalities)

@Buba What type of meditation were you doing?

My current understanding is that the effects of coffee differs significantly from person to person. Perhaps, it will require experimentation, and data collection by yourself. I suppose this forum could aid you in interpreting the data you collect. By data, I just mean i.e. I slept well today after having bed at 11am and sleeping at 8pm. That's my 2 cents!

Just remembered! There is an Actualized.org textbook floating around the forum somewhere. If you search for it, I'm sure you'll find it. It has notes for loads of videos! Further note: Apologies. My intuition tells me some aspects of my previous posts, notably my vagueness, were ego-driven.

I see. I see. I cannot send my notes. I mix in personal content with my notetaking. Also, there's something to this video. There really is

@Esilda Understandable. One day you may come across the same video, and its recommendation may flicker in your mind. Then you may watch it and see what life could be. And perhaps what it already is lol.

It would not be a refraining from fear of transpeople it would stem from a fear of death. Transphobia does not exist. It is an artificial category. Look at the base fear.

@Esilda hahaha I think that is precisely why you must watch the video. These videos are what give meaning to life.
