Tried Sertraline and Bupropion, bupropion was better, however as I have some ADD tendencies. Sertraline I tried for about 2 weeks and bupropion about 4 weeks. Also therapy was much better for me in the end.

Maybe a sign of jealousy. This is not supposed to replace therapy/shadow-type work for people struggling with mental health. Yes on the other side there's tremendous peace and love and serenity but that's not some guarantee it's up to the individual.

Tried a few, they have the effect of numbing you down emotionally as well as giving me some anxiety/heart racing problems so I stopped. I have some back ups on hand for 'emergencies' but don't usually take any nowadays.

Uh... unless you want to play God forever... what else is there to do?!?!?

??? Whatever it's not the dealbreaker anyway if the attraction is there. People can work this stuff out amongst themselves.

LoL how about guys who want to both use the woman as emotional dumping ground (as opposed to connecting) and "no strings" sex? This is actually really common from my experience. Point is reciprocity. A one sided relationship of whatever kind becomes toxic.

Become the "rockstar" in your own way/in accordance to your path/life purpose.

Yeah of course be aware of potential damage/hurt and having empathy and act accordingly.. but it shouldn't be the entire basis of our actions.

Oh trust me it happens to both men and women ???. Especially in the 'family system'.

@patricknotstar ?? no problem yeah glitches happens.. I noticed especially on mobile.

It happens to most of us I think - not being allowed to be our true selves from an early age. And then the collective as a result adopts a similar outlook. We internalize this in ourselves and fear being rejected from the herd. Individuality is a rarety under the current situation we're in. But you have the power to change that for yourself and those around you.

I would take it in a heart beat if it was something offerred in mine.. but the question is why not if you're interested in the subject? If I could do it over college should've been more around exploration.. though maybe I would've just taken random courses from a university and did a technical college instead.. anyway.. I usually take it if it speaks to me just out of curiosity.

D'awww thanks @Preety_India.

It's a feeling, it's as real as it gets for you. Justifications sound like something to appeal to/not upset the collective - which isn't what you want deep down anyway. Deep down you want to live your truths.

@patricknotstar True I generally don't take it well .

@StarStruck You really don't need to justify not wanting to dance with certain people rofl. No guilt, just have fun! Enjoy the life you have.

Sorry to hear about your frustrations. It truly is the 'untrapping' once you're on the other side. Don't give up! But yes maybe take a break from it. Sometimes things don't go in a 'linear' fashion and come to you unexpectedly.

It's like an intense version of the 'bubbling up' of emotions that were trapped/suppressed. And it's so intense that it seemingly throws the person out of control.

Honestly you should really only compare with yourself/your own progress, otherwise it can be overwhelming and you become discouraged to stay on the path. There's often a 'dip' when working at something and it can be easy to give up during this phase even though you're still actually progressing, just not as obvious. Once you come out of the 'dip' you will see progress. The key is to motivate yourself not to give up on something you cared about. Maybe find more people who can encourage you, sometimes it can be hard to do it all by yourself.

I thought the definition of friendzone is you're not more than 'friends'... not some friends with benefits situation lol.

@StarStruck Maybe it's a great opportunity to collapse the duality between 'old' and ' young' . Not that you have to dance with them.

@integral you're on a streak today. ?

Art is essential, but is difficult to exist without all the other survival stuff being taken care of, just like spirituality - which often merges with art. As an aside: one can infuse spirituality and art into anything, including engineering. Also your profile pic is Steve Jobs, his success came because of an appreciation for artistry.
