Discussion My only addiction - The dangers of Music and other stimuli

[D. B. Gooner]

Music. I can't spend a moment in silence. Not when I'm walking, not when I'm shitting, doing anything really. And the effect it has on me is awful.

I felt in the mood for some sad music. Had an average day. Went for an hour long walk. By the end of it I was having suicidal thoughts.

As I was listening, I imagined myself as a fictional character and started analyzing my tragic psychology. How much of an isolated self-pitying self deprecating coper I am. I started thinking about how my life would gain worth if I died, I would be fully realized as a tragic figure.
If you lead a depressing life and get a happy ending, you're just a recovering loser who stumbled into a life everyone else already has.
If you lead a depressing life and die in that same light, you become somewhat of an artpiece. Like Romeo and Juliet. People would appreciate me so much more if I killed myself.
That's what 1 hour of sad music got me thinking.

The emotions music envokes is unfathomable. Imagine a person from 100 years ago experiencing the range of emotions I experience every day just because of sad/happy/hype music. I'm leading the most uneventful life, yet stimulating my brain as if I'm living in a drama. Same goes for watching emotional tv shows, we are just not meant to experience this many emotions.

So whats the point? You'll die anyway. It doesnt matter what the negative effects are.
Those people back in the day had it better tho yeah

I wanna live in the moment. Yeah I'll die, so before I die I wanna be happy. I keep wasting all my emotional "energy" on music. It's like it steals my life force.

Idk in my opinion theres not much else you can waste your emotions on
My life is just boring, so its either music or some other slop

 

[Soystein]

I listen to music all day every day.

me too and this loops back into worse addictions as well becuz its one big feedback loop with a lot of things (music x driving, m x running , m x sleeping, m x any substance, etc) they compound each others euphoria . im addicted to feeling

Just realized how much musick is jew meme poisoning and you will .stop craving it as much.

For me, I just hate all the loud racket! I prefer the sounds of reality.

There's a type of music to it...

interesting, personally it seems to pull it out from deep inside me

Well yeah it pulls it out and thus steals it. Like working out. In the moment you feel energetic, afterwards you feel fatigued.

Personally I have never understood how people can have music on in the background. When I listen to music I make time for it and nothing else. But I am still a music obsessive, I spend all day every day thinking about music. There is no greater escape in life than music.

If the activity is very basic (eg. walking like OP described), then practically all of your attention is able to go to the music you are listening to.

Walking, driving, sure. But normies blast music off their phone or speakers in their living rooms no matter what they're doing.
