In capitalism, responding in a wrong way to an email can start a chain of events that lead to you being let go, which leads to almost immediate threats to your bodily existence from lack of shelter and food. So in a way, it’s understandable to feel this level of anxiety about this situation.
responding in a wrong way to an email
It’d have to be pretty wrong to trigger that chain of events. It’s definitely possible but being that wrong would probably get the sender into trouble in other economic systems as well.
That’s a fair point 👍
Random door-to-door sales person: knocks on door
Me: “OMG THERE’S A SERIAL KILLER AT MY DOOR!!!”
This sounds like it was written by a dog.
“This is London, Jen. It’s not someone with cake. Unless that cake is made of dog poo and knives!”
Stoicism, meditation, mindfulness, yoga, reading, whatever other thing that makes your inner voices stop (flow/focus state)
I wonder if there’s a community for sharing tips for these things yet
Let me know if you find one :]
cool although I don’t like stoicism cause it sounds to me like dissociation, never actually learn from the bad experience
It’s very much not dissociation
stoics have a concept of preferred indifferents which are things like life, health, a good income/wealth, social status, etc that you’d rather have than their opposites, like death, sickness, poverty, bad reputation, etc. From that not sure one could label stocism as a form of dissociation.
Well you can try whichever philosophy that resonates with you, I said Stoicism because is the one that focused more on how to stop anxiety, but in reality all you need to do is focus on the trully important things, wich is the final purpose of any philosophy
Holy fraggle rock the anxiety I get from the most non live human interactions is astounding.
