Existential Dread

Does anyone else get feelings of existential dread?

We only get one body in this vast universe and to think that ours has been broken by a drug causes me profound psychological torment.

But yes, I understand your pain, profoundly.

It’s difficult to avoid fixating on these types of thoughts. It harmed me nearly as as much the symptoms themselves.

I have this too but help counterattack those thoughts with the thoughts:

-Well, it doesn’t really get any worse from here
-Nothing else in life will bother me now
-If I ever figure out this puzzle I will have a greater appreciation for life than any human being

Also meditation can help. I have even heard psilocybin or ibogaine (second is very dangerous) can also help with rumination and self loathe

Just remember your current state of mind has nothing to do with your state of mind in 5 or 10 years. Maybe in 5 or 10 years you feel happy and then that’s all that matters.

In the meantime it’s a struggle we have to accept.
