My life is characterized by want and coping

[YewTree]

I want to be attractive, intelligent, competent, satisfied, and so on. I want to be free from the constant feeling that something is wrong and needs to be corrected.

That's why I cope. Coping is my only solace. When I cope, with anime, reading, etc., I'm barely aware of my body or my surroundings. I forget that I'm a 3D human living in the real world; my consciousness is drawn out of my body and it migrates to a world of escapism. I take on the role either of an observer or a participant, depending on the form and content of the media, and I feel as if things are "correct". Then, by ruminating over the memory of this experience, I can modify it, improving the experience so it feels less distinguishable from reality, but is also better at fulfilling the wants I cannot stop thinking about. Coping is the one good thing I can point to about my life.

Anime is the best cope tbh.

Yeah, steam is a good cope. I used to play video games a lot but now I cope mostly with anime.

I too like to forget about myself, the 3D world is garbage.

True. I suppose the only difference is that I also attempt to change parts my "reality" itself, not only expand upon it. However what works for one person might not work for another. I cope hard tbh.
