You can achieve the same state awake as you do dreaming. While dreaming, you can come to lucidity; while awake, you can detach from experience and reach a sleepless dream.

The sense of detached experience common to dreams can be cultivated while awake through what I call the 3rd-person-view thinking process.
In the first stage, you simply hone your awareness of your experiences as something separate and other from you. The easiest way to start is during a repetitive physical activity, such as running: as you run, notice that you are no longer consciously putting in effort to make your arms and legs move, but rather just following along for the ride while another force (your unconscious mind and your body's reflexes and instincts) seems to pilot your experiences. Do this often enough and you will have the sense of acting on autopilot during many activities beyond just running or whatever you started with - typing, walking, speaking while thinking of your next words, and some other activities will give you the same sense of being piloted or driven.
In the second stage, you cultivate this newfound detachment from experience further, by taking active notice of your "automatic" activity in other contexts. Now not only the activities listed above, but most other things you do should start to seem automatic and driven by an external force, and eventually you will notice this pattern even with your own stream of consciousness. At the end of this stage you should be able to observe your own thoughts externally to a more base awareness.
In the third state, you practice what I call active detachment. The easiest way to do this is while lying in bed for sleep. You will notice your body with your eyes closed, and actively think of yourself as a point of light inside the darkness inside your own body, like an explorer in a vast cave, rather than identifying with your arms and legs and so on. You might feel tingly feelings or shivers or suddenly jerk out of it, which is a natural reaction to the para-hypnagogic state you are placing yourself in. With practice, you will separate the conditions of your experience - body, thought stream, and even emotions - into something other than the base awareness which you use to experience all of these other things. Once you have experience with active detachment, you can start to turn it on while doing normal activities, leading to a dreamlike, detached state in which the flow of cause and effect seems sealed together and you seem to not need to actively "do" anything for things to happen, caused by your "unconscious" or "para-conscious" mind which you have deliberately separated away taking on the burden of actively doing things and making decisions. This is what I called the "sleepless dream" - a form of escapism in which "you" separate from "yourself" and drift into a waking dream.

Is this good for you? No. Actually it can cause quite a lot of distress and possible psychosis. But hey, you asked.

Back in High School, our AP Literature teacher assigned us to write a short story with a hero's quest plot structure. Me, being edgy and on a huge Nabokov kick, wrote an obvious ripoff of Lolita.

I still got an A+, and in the margins, the teacher wrote, "not a hero's quest" lol

My health has been improving and it's given me the clarity to work up the nerve to go and sign a 4473 and acquire a handgun and read up on suicide victim coroner reports and trauma medicine reports to understand where the most painless place to aim is to kill the brainstem instantly. I think I am going to buy a handgun soon and I will have my escape ready at will. My friend from high school shot himself in the head around this time in January. Usually the pain that this would inflict on what's left of my family would kind of horrify me but I think I have the clarity to push through it. I can forget all of it. I can do it.

I don't have feelings about anything and it's led to this pretending otherwise to preserve the peace with other people but it's just accrued pain from the awareness that there is no way forward that I feel associated to. I can't really keep this pretending up. 17 years of this lack of feeling. I can't define anything about me. How am I supposed to act when I feel nothing. How am I supposed to act? Why can't this clarity about suicidal intent not bleed over into something else in life? Why can't I really care about my family or the day tomorrow? Why did things end up like this

I can't form an emotional connection to anything, therefore trying to act as if I do by laboring through a hobby or a job feels like meaningless work. How am I supposed to form a goal if I don't have any stake in the end result? It just turns like into endless labor, and endless labor can only make you tired, and when exhaustion is life's only reward then death becomes the alternative. So why live?

Have you tried having a romantic relationship? Many people find meaning in life through that, if not through their career.

Also, why anyone in this day and age would commit suicide with anything but fentanyl+alcohol-included CNS depression in your sleep, I'll never understand. Plus you get to at least have an extremely pleasurable night before you go, and there's no mess.

How old are you?
>>
>>25036701
I'm 27 but I've been in an arrested state of development since adolescence, arguably since childhood since I lost the ability to be engaged with anything beyond distraction from about age 7. I couldn't beat apathy and work through high school. I've been terminated from several jobs and resigned from others because of apathy, emotional dysregulation, or incompetence. I'm going through cycles of reckless pleasure seeking through recreational drug use and sobriety. I really have no future and I'm just delaying further suicide attempts like this. I'm in poverty. I don't think finishing a GED and going to community college is going to work out because I find it too rigorous and I wouldn't have a plan or any sort of genuine interest in anything there. I don't know what I'm doing besides procrastinating signing the form to buy a handgun to destroy my brainstem.

The only thing that would guarantee that you would have no future is the end of your life. Until that point, there is absolutely no way to know what your future holds or what you might experience. Why think of yourself in such static terms when your life could look completely different just a few years from now, due to factors that you cannot foresee right now?

I'm nothing. I've been nosediving through life and it's culminating in pain and I don't want it to continue if it's going to be this pain like this. I don't see how somebody as inept and despondent as I have been could in any virtual likelihood come into happiness by unforeseen fortune. I wasn't a formerly successful person that lost something, I've been lost the entire way through. What are the chances someone with essentially zero education, money, or connections could suddenly get better, especially when my 20s are nearly over? How? I'm nothing.

i hate having adhd
it feels like i never really grew up, like im still the same easily confused, forgetful child making a mess of everything i try to do. and i hate how many equivalencies there are between me/adhd and the wider generational problems of brain rot / arrested development.

You're only saying this because they still had hair into old age, and since these two both happened to be big in the entertainment industry, I think it's not unlikely they had hair plugs installed.

I've come to realize that most people dont know what they are talking about. Most people go with the herd and cant really think for themselves. They might function well enough in their own lifes but taking advice or opinions from them is like taking poison. There is no substitute for thinking for yourself and for acquiring your own knowledge. The masses are almost always wrong about what does not immediately affect their own life. Democracy is rule by srupidity.

Do the people on this board understand anything, have you guys learned anything from your years of interacting with art and knowldge, because it seems like you haven't. Every time I show up here I'm always a slightly different person, I've always learned something new and I can't stand to stand still but it seems like you're all really just seeing the world through the same goggles of shallow modernity that everyone else is, bitter at the current state of the world but not doing any work on yourself or how you see things to change it. maybe i'm wrong but this is the vibe i get. If you have any real great pursuits or dreams in life you're just not going to get there by holding this boring fucking normie view of everything, I really hope you guys understand that

As a retired cripple NEET i'm sometimes appalled/delighted by how little tradesmen, even of my own age, make for their time and effort. In terms of "real" income I suppose I'd have to make about 100K to live as well as I do in most North American circumstances, though I haven't worked since 2014. Sometimes I think they enjoy my company more than the money--or at least respect my potency when it comes to review. Does anyone, in the whole colossal Hell of Bangladesh, look on Versailles as a gross, foul-smelling preliminary?

She was so sweet and vulgar and she was always so happy when she saw me. Often I looked around and noticed that she was staring at me, when our eyes then met, the most beautiful smile spread upon her face. Imagine that a person can be happy to see me.

i like when i begin a book on a subject i've already been intensely thinking about myself, and it's as if everything the author says is so much more meaningful than it otherwise would be, as if they know and are alluding to the things that have been rattling around my mind.

but if you asked me to summarise 'the gist' of the book, i'd probably give you an identical answer to if i'd read the book a couple years ago, before i was interested in the topic. this is why i'm wary of people who think reading is purely about extracting the gist at maximum pages-per-hour.

deleuze talks about books as machines that plug into various flows in the real world. understanding and enjoying a book is about knowing which contexts from your experience and imagination you can productively plug the book-machine into; otherwise you're trying to run a machine with no fuel, no inputs.

Stepping from a warm sedan

Faraway vivid red and blue, in the cold
And turbulent air outside.

Then I saw Orion
Just, Rigel

And Betelgeuse the same grey
By comparison.

Anything above 9000K looks pretty much the same
To the naked eye, such as it is,

Same as average blue sky
If not for roses

Here and there, charisma's warmer sons.

That's sick. What if i were to take it to the extreme and imagine something even worse while squeezing the tube? Like imagining having sex with an animal, or even my very own mother? What about homosexual intercourse? Is there a limit or do you think it's all fine to rub the puppy while thinking of little prepubescent girls?
>>
>>25038609
I think masturbating to ones own thoughts is completely fine and these moral constrictions you place on yourself FOR THINKING SOMETHING because weaker men wanted to control you is pathetic.
>>
>>25038528
One can masturbate themselves into all manner of things. Don't take it seriously. If it's too disgusting for your conscious self, refrain. If you can't climax without it, refrain anyway. Your mere thoughts seem to bother you greatly, so exercise your self control. You've committed no immoralities to have ever indulged your thoughts.

>>25038627
I must say i agree more with Aurelius on this one. The things you think about determine the quality of your mind. Your soul takes on the color of your thoughts. Thing is, it is funny because as a roman emperor he probably enjoyed having lots of sex with both prepubescent girls and boys. To be so right and so wrong at the same time.

How did i ignore you? You said You've committed no immoralities to have ever indulged your thoughts, and no he never hinted at anything like that but from my understanding that is just how the romans are, and please, do not call Aurelius insipid, he is one of my only masculine role models in life

the transition from short story writing to long form fiction has absolutely broken me
gone from 'yeah this is doable' to 'wtf am I even doing' to 'have I actually written a sensible plot in my life' to not writing at all.
Now I'm stuck just writing to write in hopes my ego doesn't jump back in the way or actually sit and take the time to figure out wtf I'm fumbling on (but potentially write nothing as result of circlerjerking)

Most likely because they are miserable themselves but when I say "for no reason" I mean they don't set a boundary or tell you to stop or say that they have had a bad day and don't want to talk. They just straight up attack you for no reason and then have the gall to say "Men can't communicate" when they go from 0 to 60 with no warning.

I have hand cramps all the time from writing by hand or drawing. Is that because of dysgraphia?
>>
I have a single friend I still talk to, just one. Everyone else drifted away. Even if I try to initiate a conversation with those, it never goes further than a few sentences. But that one guy writes to me almost every day. At first I thought he was like me so he'd have latched onto the only person that kept replying to him. Then I found out he actually has quite a few even older friends who he still talks to.
Now I think I must be more like his other friends. We'd all be utterly alone if it wasn't for this one guy with the innate ability to indefinitely keep in touch.

I always thought the argument about whether god exists silly when it started to use ideas like omnipotence or omnipower. These ideas are used to argue both 'for' god and against. The 'for' argument making the concept of god tautililogical. The against argument pointing out contradictions in definitions that use such grandiose terms.

Because I dont think god needs to be all powerful. Just much more powerful than people. Or even the typical person. There are probably tech people or fed spooks with access to enormous databases of messages and other private data on a lot of people and who have found ways to skirt oversight. And I bet they feel like god.

There are bureaucrats that via the position they have achieved in a state, intentionally or just by happenstance, get to regularly be in situations with such a power or agentic imbalance Im sure they feel godlike.

And i vaguely remember stories of psychopathic killers enjoying the complete dominance they gained over their victims and describing it as feeling like god.

Maybe I don’t have thoughts. I do feel empty where once I thought I had a frightening conceit to display.


Yes, it’s quiet. There’s no thoughts. Is that supposed to happen? Is that bad? Is that good? Should I be praised for that? Should I be praised? Can someone praise me for that? Can someone validate me please? Please, someone please validate me. Please, someone please console me, please; I’m distraught! My heart rate is climbing. I’m afraid…

Yes.
>And you also think you are good?
Yes, that’s right.
>So then how come you are not thinking manly, tough or strong thoughts?
Well, I don’t know, but I do know right now that I think those three words, “manly,” “tough” and “strong” are all starting to seem very cringe and gay.
>Cringe and gay? That’s such a strong reaction. Only just moments ago you were searching for those things and now you’re repulsed by them. What do you think happened? Tell me in the simplest words you can, whatever comes first to mind.
I think I got into my own head about it and tried to correct it. Now it’s different; I’m not in control of it; it keeps changing and I don’t know why. Something’s wrong.

>Are you in your own head right now?
Yes, very intensely: I feel trapped. I feel, actually, as if a lot of pressure is building up between my eyes but up, on my forehead. It feels… heavy, and warm. I want to say tight as well but it doesn’t seem accurate and I can’t pin down why.
>Ok.



It still feels that way. It could even be described as hard. It feels hard.
>I have an exercise for you to do, sweetheart: imagine a forest, a dark, quiet forest where, all around you, there are tall trees full of green leaves. Are you imagining that?
Yes, I am.

I can hear the leaves rustling against each other; I can hear a bird tweeting; now I hear the leaves again, like waves at the beach crashing on the sand.
>Oh, wow: that sounds very nice. Now, tell me: are you alone?
Yes, I’m alone.

We wouldn't be confused by that, in America the race of a person changes if you walk around to the other side of them.

That's exactly what I mean, they don't live in segregated neighborhoods and intermix at commercial areas. They live in whole segregated towns and villages.

Imagine growing up thinking you're still living in the America of the Jeffersons and Washingtons just with modern ships and slavery abolished. You would think it to be a world full of life and possibilities, right? You would genuinely believe that you can stakelessly fuck shit up without consequences because if someone confronts you you just say "don't tread on my liberties" and then you'd snip your finger into their face and walk away with a smug smile on your face and you'd walk by the natural park and smoke a cigarette and then an brown man comes out of the bush and scares the hell out of you. So you beat the crap out of him because you're a strong white man, or you try to cool down the situation and walk away unharmed. Just imagine the idea, conceptualize it in your head. You'd never loose an argument again.

Can a man not be a law-abiding citizen and be a man of trouble at the same time?
>>
>>25040608
Maybe back in the 70s-90s but it seems that those kinds of people either jump to have the noose hang them or the noose slowly ever tightens around their neck before they are allowed to jump.
>uhh... What?
It seems those who try to be both eventually go to jail from their own actions or the law in legislated in a way that they go to jail anyway.

The unfortunate truth is that an honest, law-abiding citizen is constantly going to get you in trouble. To quote the famous philosopher Jean-Jacques Rousseau, if you ever work for the state (like in the army), you can be sure you will get fired if you actually do an excellent and honest job. But this doesn't only apply to state jobs, it applies to almost every single facet of life. An honest life is a recipee for big big trouble, and the good thing about that is out of all the possible outcomes, jail eternally remains out of question.

Which is why the Cathars were ultimately correct. This earth is tainted and fallen it is not only the outermost level of Hell but also a Hell that contains even more Hells. Do you think it was a mistake that many of the people in the Bible came from rural or pastoral areas? Nope, living in cities or living in highly diverse areas are smaller, microcosmic hells within a larger Hell. The goal is to live in a small community with space, that's the closest you can get to Heaven in this life and on this earth.

This ambience of despair is indeed terrifying. One thing I know from me just going through life is that being alone is very hard, and pushing through alone is very hard.

When I work on myself, if I want to do stuff, it is generally with a great expectation that by end of all efforts I will enjoy every results with many friends, and that's when I find my best energy. And I can see this being a vicious cycle that dooms everyone: Working on myself is great, but what's the point? Why am I alone to enjoy things? Life's so hard and everyone concerns is directed at senseless things, fuck this! etc.

Or, alternatively, you live your life as an honest man against all odds and engage in daily brutal fights as a result. Who doesn't love chaos? Nothing creates more chaos than a sincerely honest man in an environment of normies.

That's such a stupid thing to say. I'm talking about beating a thug trying to steal from a lady type of fights, but you need to reach some kind of no stakes attitude to life in order to even consider such a thing.

>i like when i begin a book on a subject i've already been intensely thinking about myself
Yeah, that's one of the feelings that makes not regret starting reading late at all, most of what I'm reading would have completely went over my head in my adolescence or early twenties, I'm glad I wrote my thoughts on art and ethics etc. before reading people, it's fun to see that my ideas coincide with some people on many levels, and If I never went on writing first and reading second, I might always have had a discomfort where I wouldn't know whether I was good enough to generate good thoughts on my own.

>understanding and enjoying a book is about knowing which contexts from your experience and imagination you can productively plug the book-machine into; otherwise you're trying to run a machine with no fuel, no inputs.
In general, I see the human base state as a symmetry evaluating machine, that encompasses trying to see beauty and structure everywhere, as well as making sense of what you observe, in art, in books, by way of symmetry and just comparing what you see with what you've seen and the knowledge, memories, and instincts you have developed; Always seeking harmony, finding truth by noticing contradictions.

In contrast, people don't think "Logically" most of the time, in the sense that logic is making careful small steps, nor do you read logically, or watch art logically.

Why would you want that? There's not many great things to read, and most good words deserves to be read again and as slowly as possible, and paused upon. If you feel some paragraphs are getting redundant just skip them while just glancing over the words until the subject changes.

I went to this workshop to work on my job-finding, anyway there was this girl, typical leftist, but I couldn't care less. She was just thin, spoke well and felt comfortable to listen to. And when I conversed with her, she'd stop and look off to think, I love girls who think, took her time to respond, she had a soul, and that pleased me, I love intelligent girls, I just liked listening to her; there are some times where I stopped processing her words and just enjoyed her grace and voice. She mentioned a boyfriend and I don't think I was that much into her anyway, but still, it was a pleasing encounter, intellectually joyful.
