If idealism is true, then there is nothing concrete which suggests that experiences which you construct intentionally are any less real than anything else in your life. Once I started thinking like this, I felt a lot better. In fact it just became progressively more obvious that it's true over time, and it's hard to imagine that I used to believe otherwise.
Tbh I think that the best cope is intentionally dissociating yourself from the world around you. Once you realize that none of it ultimately matters, and that it's essentially just one long dream of being a person, it becomes easier to not care so much, and not be so attached to things.
exactly .
There is a lot more pain than pleasure on this world
and even if you somehow '' make it '' , ascend or whatever , each struggle will just be replaced by a new obstacle .
Literally any Philosophy there is is just a new Reality you try to force upon yourself until you believe in it
, a new lens in your brain changing the way you look on life and how you interpret it .
Either you become a stoic and try to '' enjoy '' the pain , cause it make you grow mentally and physically
or you just accept that life is a random bunch of suffering and death , every animal just crawling in the dirt of this shitty planet ,
stuck in the same old slave system of our instincts .
Become reliogious , become a narcissist , become a cynic , whatever .
these are all beaten paths , copeing mechanism , subjective realities that wiser people envisioned a long time ago .
In the end , Nihilism is the only truth .
In the end , it all boils down to cope or rope .
And dissociating yourself from this world + indoctrinating yourself with a new subjective reality is the best cope there is .
