How do people do it?

[DizzyDi]

I wanna know how you guys that have been on this earth longer than me manage to stay sane in this world with the amount of bullshit that we are bombarded with everyday. How do yall go about living when no matter where you go theres always some shit goin on. You go on the internet, people whining about any number of things. The news that constantly feeds the people sensationalist stories that are obviously exaggerated or sometimes just flat out lies. The government that seems like it can't do anything right except fill its own pockets with money. It really seems like there is no where to go to just catch a break from this stuff. How do yall do it?

[ABDUR101]

You concentrate on the things that actually matter. Random people online, random sensationalised news stories, who gives a shit? The government? Again, who gives a shit? You're not going to change something like that with anything short of a nationwide uprising.

Concentrate on things that actually matter; you, your friends, your family, your own life.

[Sayara]

^ If you are directly involved with it then it matters, otherwise i could care less what Bush does or what some super bug is doing or whatever.

[BlaizeYES]

when you think about it, you are just becoming a product of it. it doesnt matter

[Katrina]

Family / friends, someone like minded to confide in and talk with, to sort through the frustrations life sometimes throws your way.

Having an outlet to relax, unwind, unclutter the mind. There's in-numerous outlets for this. For some ppl, spending time on a hobby or something they enjoy will help shift the focus from life's daily stresses to a more positive outlook.

Meditation and relaxation, exercise (one you actually enjoy doing, a sport you enjoy, hiking, what have you as opposed to feeling like you're forced into a routine), and religion can bring balance for some ppl. The whole healthy mind-body-soul deal.

The rationale that most other ppl go through the same stresses, ups, and downs, and bs that life throws our way to varying degrees.

[DurakkenX]

You know...things you mentioned were so kind of trifling that it's no real big deal...The things that are the big deal are the little things that cause small amounts of stress over time...so lets go and list some of that...

#1. The thing that bothers me the most is feminists and current view of males and females in general at this point in time. Women are so portrayed as victims that it is ingrained in us and men are ingrained as brutes. Economically, socially, culturally, almost everything is pretty much feminist propaganda that doesn't look at the facts in this age and over time it is the result of most suicides in the world ^.^ I was gonna give a huge list of things, but one that stands out to me is everyone over here is all up in arms, especially women, about the removal of the clitorus in the middle east in women and use the argument that they do it to remove please, but don't say shyt about circumcision and most will have their children circumcised without much thought to it, but biology has shown that the foreskin is one of the most sensitive parts of the skin. It's the same thing and noone says anything about it because it's done to males and it's in our culture v.v

#2. the next big stressor for me actually comes from knowledge of the shyt that is supposed to happen or could be happening this moment. We are late geologically on having a Super Volcano go off, and a Meteor to strike. The Earth's magnetic field might be turning off soon as it switches it's poles and some scientists think that soon we will experience one of the worst solar storms in history. On top of that a Super Tsunami is just barely not happening, but could happen any second that would pretty much wipe out the east coast of america. Antimatter is being produced and collected on the planet and if they make a mistake it will blow a lot of shyt up. We may have created a black hole that will be in the middle of the earth slowly about to kill us. There nay be a wormhole/black hole through the planet. The core of the planet may stop producing a magnetic field soon. We are about to run out of oil and don't have a reliable fuel to replace it and not just as gas but in many products. there's global warming that if scientist predict right may effect us at the same time we run out of gas...how ironic. And that's just sensible things that may kill us all in the next 100-1000 years. I haven't even listed moronic philosophic and religious things ^.^

I think after listing those two things it pretty obvious when looking around at culture there is very little you can do because you look silly as fuck or you have no power anyways so all you can do is say fuck it all, ignore it, and just try to live your life as happily as possible.

After a certain point, you stop caring. It seems like the mass media's job is to make us fear EVERYTHING. In rare cases common sense screams "bullshit" for us, but other than that I figure if everything is going to kill me, might as well live it up and indulge.

Although I do take special care to try to avoid death by car accident or cancer. Those suck.

[Mystil]

When it all comes to it...at the end of the day, the bullshit stops the minute your house door shuts behind you.

[Leviathan]

I just don't care anout that anymore.

If people on the internet are pissing you off: get off the internet.

If you're with a group of people that are being idiots: move away from them.

Its simple just detach yourself from them, its what I do.

I really don't understand what you mean by that.

I usually am the kind of person not to let this kind of stuff get to me but lately it just seems like no matter where i go I'm faced with these things in some way ya know?

[Blue-Hawk]

The only thing I truly let bother me is the fact that everything is going up except my paycheck.

[Noblewine]

That's completely normal the best advice I got is to ignore it if you can't talk about it to one of your parents or friends. They are there for a reason talk to them when you see fit.

[Kikumaru]

Well, this one is quite simple. Something that Bush addresses as a nationwide problem may not be a problem for myself as an individual. Anything I am not a part of or my friends are involved with, I don't worry about.

As far as meeting morons and such are concerned..I've learned to not even bother talking with some people. If I wanted to talk with a brick wall, I'd do so >.>

I tend to just ignore those kinds of people. Idiots, noobs, elitists, brats, etc. If they get on your nerves, just ignore them. There's no sense in wasting the time or energy on matters so small.

Also, a few things I do to get through my days are:

Call my friend to see how he is doing. Even if I don't have much to talk about, it could be a good way of relaxing for you, regardless.

Watch some anime. I watch some stuff that either gets me focused more on that or makes me laugh and forgets about the crap I went through earlier.

Listen to music. This is like a coin, really. I can never really tell how this one will go. I've listened to some music before and it has relaxed me and helped the situation, but some times it has also worsened the situation and made me start thinking about my life and whatnot, so..I'm not sure about this method, honestly.

Also, go online, browse through some websites, forums, talk with people on a messenger client or play an online game with your friends.

If that sort of thing doesn't work for you, then go find another game to play. It may sound a little childish to some, but sometimes I like to just play an action type game and kill things, and that helps me relax, plus..if I'm so focused on the video game I'm playing, I won't be thinking about the stupid situation from earlier which made me so stressed out.

Well, those are just some ways I get through my day. One last thing you could try is..I know it sounds so simple, but..sleep. One of the greatest things about sleep is when doing so, you don't have to worry about ANYTHING. You just...relax.

Sure, that doesn't mean you won't have to worry about it when you wake up, but at least..for the duration of the time you are asleep, you can relax and not worry about anything in the world.

I've done that a few times myself actually. I just didn't want to think about anything at all at the moment, since I was getting a little pressured thinking about a lot of things, so...I took a nap, lol.

I woke up and my mind had already straightened a few things out in my sleep, so I was thinking more clearly when I woke up.

Speaking of sleep...http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_sleep.gif

[Darkly]

I've got to go with the advice here. Media tells people to do this, think that, feel bad about this andblame that and so on.

Distance Yourself, what i mean is take a break from it all. Only care about what YOU want to care about.

[omegapirate2k]

Heh, I just think that everyone else is incredibly stupid unless they prove to me otherwise.

Works for most situations.

I THOUGHT YOU LOVED ME DIZZY! D:

On topic, I basically agree with Abdur et al.
So I guess that makes me an apathetic, defeatist, bad global citizen type, who, through inaction, is arguably complicit in "bad shit" happening and the perpetuation of immoral socio-economic and societal institutions.
On the other hand, I sleep pretty well at night, being quite exhausted from my own activities, problems, etc.

[DizzyDi]

What I meant to say is that I assume everyone is a troll or retard until proven innocent.

And like I had said before, usually I don't care but it just seems like lately its just been an overload of "bad shit". I just wish I could do something about or SOMEONE would do something about it. Just seems like everythings going in a downward spiral.

[AlexCraig]

One person alone can't fix this downward spiral, as you put it. We need a large majority of individuals to right the ever increasing wrongs. I know that many people out there would read what I say and post something like "it doesn't concern me, so why should I bother?" But the fact is that it eventually will effect you, whatever the hell "it" is. Small things grow to big things, and it is these big things that effect everyone.

But what does it matter what I say. I am just going to be flammed mercilessly for saying something that is on my mind http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_nono.gif

No no Alex I agree with you wholeheartedly. I feel like there aren't enough people in this world who care about the important things, instead they worry about whos doing what on X reality show. I know that every generation goes through their own trials and tribulations and such but it just seems to me that this one is sucking pretty hard.

[Dre_o]

Death Note!!1 Righting the worlds wrongs (in the first episode at least)

....
erhm...
anyways...

My heart has sank by reading this thread. I'm fully aware that life can suck really bad. I've got both the SAT and the ACT in a little more than a month! That's pressure! On top of that, I've got to go to work AND school tomorrow AND Tuesday!! THAT BITES!! And THEN I have to continue to arrange my career shadow!! GOD IT SUCKS!!

But you know what? Do you know how I can keep on going? Do you know how I don't go emo/angst/cutting wrist/suicide/blackdressemo? I remember this little fact:

It can always be worse. ALWAYS. ALWAYS. ALWAYS. It can always be worse.

How? Ohhhhhhh you don't even want to get my vivid imagination going on THAT one....noooo..there isn't a post long enough to fit what I could say in.

And if that though doesn't work, go for a jog. OR..oooooo this one is a good one!! When it's snowing and everything is covered in snow: go for a walk. Find a desolate little park or something and just sit there. See if you can hear anything. Just trust me on this one. Just go. If you can't hear anything, you may just realize the golden fact.

This world will continue on without us. Whether we nuke ourselves or just plain kill ourselves, this world and the other organisms on it will go on. You will then realize that it isn't worth it to sweat everything. It simply isn't. If it happens, it happens. "We'll all float on."

[AlexCraig]

My mother and I had a discussion yesterday about a similar topic; people these days not giving a rats ass. I don't remember most of the conversation, but the one thing that stuck out in my mind is when I said to her:

"You are going to have well educated grandchildren. I will make sure of that. Just look at my sister! Nine years old and she prefers watching the Discovery Channel over most cartoons. I intend to teach my children, from as soon as possible, every good moral and value I can. Now I know that might be wishful thinking now, but it is something I will enforce. Hell, the other day, my boss and I were talking about how poor the education is around here. I told her 'That is why I watch History and Discovery Channel. I knew I was not learning enough in a way that suited me'. So, you can be sure you will have some well brought up grandchildren."

[Weeaboolits]

History/Discovery channels, I watch primarily because, unlike the other crap that's on, they're actually interesting.

what i mean is that when you begin thinking off all the negative things happening in the world, you're going to start viewing everything in a more pessimistic light. you can be aware of the negatives, but you can't let yourself be affected by it. it's always going to be there, focus on the positive aspects of everything rather than the negatives.

what i mean about "becoming a product of it" is that when you allow yourself to think constantly of everything in the news or how horrible everything is around you, you are only proving why the media concentrates on shittiness to begin with. thats all people will focus on. they wont focus on the stories that make people feel good, people instead want to hear about how there is a bacterial menengitis scare at a local college.

i'm not saying to "block it out completely," because thats impossible. you cant use ignorance as the resort to being happy. but you need to accept what you cannot change, and change what you can to make yourself a little happier.

i hate to admit it, but i've read that book "the secret," and although the book itself is kind of filled with a great deal of BS, a few of the concepts in the book i did like. the "law of attraction" is half true, but unlike the book says, it isnt about making yourself delusional to the point where you're tricking yourself to believing "checks are coming in the mail instead of bills." but you still need to see positives in everything around you, and be a little more optimistic.


and probably the main factor in how angry you get at everything wrong in the world is because you're given too much time to think. when you stay busy and goal-oriented, its much harder to think of how terrible everything around you really is.

the mind can really dive deep into meaningless details, and when you give yourself the time to really think on the bullshit around you, you'll only feed it. and for some reason, people tend to feed anger and sadness more than anything else when you have plenty of time to analyze. emotions only become much more intense when you give yourself time to exploit them.


so for my closing statement, i will say this: of course theres a million things to hate in this world, and theres a million reasons to be depressed. but at the end of the day, allowing yourself to become emotionally involved to anything you have no control over will only make you insane. feelings will never bring about change. action will.


instead of thinking "how i feel," think of "what can i do" or "how can i make myself better." dont give yourself time to feel, as horrible as that sounds. dont let yourself indulge into depression.


like that dodge commercial says: GRAB LIFE BY THE HORNS

The History Channel has a reputation for being highly inaccurate. It really is for the most part, but it's a great place for general information on a subject/event.

I figure that I'd rather influence the world in little subtle ways that I'll never notice. Maybe I'll smile at a stranger, or make a nice meal for a friend, do little favors here and there. I'd rather make people happy then engage in the Grand March of self-promotional protest, or think that I'm so wonderful because "I care." I don't.

I'll be happy while the person that "gives a rat's ass" is pulling their hair out over an event hundreds or thousands of miles away. What will my sympathy do? Nothing but make me feel like a good person (vague Seinfeld reference).

If you're stressed about fiscal or foreign policy, you won't have the energy or the desire to be kind to those around you. I'd rather be loved by those close to me than admired by thousands or millions.

<font size=-1>[ This Message was edited by: Solstis on 2007-10-22 14:54 ]</font>

[AlexCraig]

It is not about love or admiration. It is about fixing problems. You see, you are one of thousands, hell, millions of people who either don't care or feel that it is not their place. Well, I say, who the hell's place is it?
You may not care, and decide to leave it to people who do, but the point is that the majority doesn't care. The numbers add up to the point where more people don't care than people who do. That is why things don't get done and fall for worse.

What things need getting done? Oh, let's invade Afganistan, that'll be nice for the people that live there. They'll enjoy that whole death thing. Same sentiment, different mission. Let's change the world!

Er. Okay.

[AlexCraig]

No no no. I don't mean invade a country. I am more or less concerned with issues here in the states. And you can't tell me you don't see what problems. As for changing the world, that is damn near impossible. We can aid people around the world, we can try to get more allies than enemies/rivals, we can attempt to get at least some stability in an already deplorable economy.

[Darkly]

For some reason I have always been more concerned with myself and those around me - family, friends and girlfriend. I choose to enjoy my life on a day to day basis, playing video games, eating nice foods, going out with people, rather than become obsessed with the state of the world.

I suppose you could call me apathetic, but i didn't choose to live in this world, I don't really see why i should care about problems that don't concern me. In reality if something bad happened where i lived I wouldn't want others to feel pity, try to help me etc. It's because it's my or my families problems. I always tend to be lighthearted - I would always rather watch a comedy channel over the discovery channel because it makes me happy. That's not to say i do not watch the discovery channel because sometimes things that inerest me make me happy too.

I will help those around me without a doubt but unless someone gives me a direct way to help out others, i dont think i should have to help.

[AlexCraig]

Well, the same goes for me most of the time. Usually, I don't pay any attention to anything outside my door. I would mainly be concerned about my family, friends, and other such close knit people. It is just that I hate what america has become lately. I want to see it go for the better, but that just isn't happening yet.

lol that statement sounds like america is a close friend of yours. to me, this is just a country i happened to be born in. if only i had an american flag on my car or had a bumper sticker saying, "PROUD TO BE AN AMERICAN"... but the truth is, i dont really care where i'm from. pride means nothing


but i know, i think about that from time to time, about how much i would have loved to live during the 1950's and early 60's. the lifestyle, the morals, the innocence, and work ethic those years embodied. but america is "evolving" into laziness and oblivion.

i dont consider myself to be a devoted patriot of america. i could really care less what happens here if it doesnt affect my life. i'm studying abroad next year, and then eventually live in various countries around the globe. mainly for exploration purposes, get an unbiased view on the world toward reaching enlightenment. I AM ADDICTED TO INSPIRATION. everything inspires me, well except posters or readings that try too hard at it. thats just unoriginal garbage

I'm not sure if that's what he intended. If anything getting more people involved in the war might bring about a swift end and bring the troops home. Instead, the majority of us in the States bitch and complain about the war instead of doing anything about it.

Anyway, that's not what I wanted to add to this topic .

I guess the way I deal with it is to know when to care and when not to care. The majority of “problems” that we have in our lives tend to out of our hands. In the short amount of time I've spent in this world I've realized that you can't go about your live worrying about things that's you can't control. The best thing you can do is cope with the situation the best way you know how. If ignoring the problem works, then by all means do so. I also tend to take comfort in the fact that people are going through the same (if not worse) problems that I am having.

While that may be a sinister thought there is something very fundamentally human about knowing that others are dealing with the same problems you are. I guess that's why we, as a whole, tend to bond in times of peril and tragedy more so then in times of glee. And when you think about it, what do we tend to worry about; the raising price of gas, the poor economy, dirty politics, the murders that happened over the weekend, that convicted rapist that just happened to move next door to you and the only way you knew that tidbit is thought the various web sites that list the addresses of these fiends and now your teenage girl can't wear skirt during those hot murky summer days cuz prev boy may be watching with some KY jelly in hand. So what I'm I getting at, we tend to make ourselves ever more paranoid by accessing information that is crafted to scare us into being more precautious. This precaution leads into a false sense of depression and pessimism that is completely unwarranted because the chance of it affect you directly is very slim (and if it does...ho HO I feel sorry for you.)

And most of things were tend to worry about are material to being with. Well, maybe this isn't true in the strictest sense because what most people actually get angry about is the emotional appeal that object or ideal has to them and the sense that by taking or molesting this thing they have be disrespected and their honor must be avenged, but we're not talking about that. The point is in the end it really doesn't matter because there isn't much YOU can do (as an individual...with little influence.) So why stress yourself out over it? Try to get the most out of life, it's too short as is.

So, when do we care about the problems we have in our lives? When it directly affects us, for example someone close to you has died...yeah...this is when you start giving a shit. When your father loses his jobs and someone has to pick up the slack for a bit to make sure the family has a place to live...this is when you give a shit. When you find out your newborn will have some type of genetic defect and you're given the option to abort the fetus...give a shit at this instant. Things like that really matter, they are life altering and character defining moments that really tell us who we are and what we can deal with. Not the latest beef with blah blah and so so and how badly you bombed on that test...they're of no importance and artificial. I guess there are some gray areas where as thought no one can dictate when and how you should give a shit...like fidelity in a relationship. Do you go ape shit when you find out your wife/husband been doing the nasty with another man/woman/dog? There are things you have to factor in like do you really love them, how long you been with them, was it a family member...blah blah blah. I going leave that subject alone. (Personally, if it was for a short time I would just cut my ties and look for another girl...besides...cutie with the pigtails over there is looking FINE in that miniskirt!)

It's funny, life doesn't get “bad” until you get older. As a child you really don't think about things like you do now. Your routine was simple: get up, eat breakfast, go play, do something dumb, try not to get in trouble, blame it on someone else, go play, do something dumb again, get a beating, go bitch about how mean your parents are, eat lunch, go play, get beat again, eat dinner, sleep, and that's it. I guess that's the beauty of being a child. You spend most of your childhood blissfully ignorant of how ugly the world really is and yearn to be an adult. As soon as adulthood hits and your introduced with the concept of “responsibility” you yearn for childhood. It's irony at its finest, it really is. I guess, to sum it all up, things that are of not penalty to you are things you don't worry about. That may be a selfish viewpoint but in the end the only one you can take care of is you. You didn't make this world, you just live in it.

[DurakkenX]

You know... it's hard to stand in a torrent of bullshyt trying to knock you down. The fact of the matter is that changing the world would be easy if people were open to change or the facts or truths, but every time a truth or new fact that totally shifts basic concepts of reality come about or reveal just a little bit of the truth to most people the person that brings it is almost always destroyed in some way. Socrates, MLK, Jesus, and many others I can't remember the names of.

As far as things being so bad... C'mon, once you realize that everything is transient you either go insane, stop worrying so much, or shut off. I mean seriously a lot of the abnormal psychology stuff happens to be semi-true. For example everything is coming apart, according to physics it really is. So when all the stuff that we used to think were just people going nuts are sorta true a lot of people do go nuts...but if you don't well you either accept or turn your emotions off for the most part. It's not too hard to ignore most of the word's problem when you realize no matter what you do and how great you are it will all end one day and mean nothing at all.

[BlaizeYES]

lol. this is turning into a discussion on the meaning of life, i sense it.

i am glad someone finally said something about being selfish and only looking out for #1, and i really didnt want to be the one to say it. but sometimes to be successful, you need to be, and you need to put yourself in front of others. that is why my relationships always fail, girls just want the drama and excitement of the boyfriend always showing how much he cares, and i am unable to do this. so a female will frequently do some sort of action so i will get mad and pay more attention, only to find that their attempt to have me admit my love has gone unanswered. goodbye relationship


moral of the story: dont care about anything except your own goals and aspirations. eventually when you're retired, you have all the time in the world to think, and care about meaningless things. if you're young, you still have a job to do. why worry about a problem that you cannot control.

you cannot change the world, this isnt hollywood. live with it


BOOM
