By the way, my last comment was in response to Alice’s comment.

Just stumbled upon this site and finding a lot of the information here resonates with me, having, like many, a life beset with problems and seemingly paralysed with inaction and irresolution through procrastination and avoidance, both of which have become ingrained. Frequently, I feel ‘overwhelmed’ and often unfocussed. I am one of those who spend infinite amounts of time deadening the pain/angst, whatever, with endless brain-numbing tv, googling and, ultimately, avoiding. At the same time, however, my endless surfing has led me to this site and many others dedicated toward self-improvement and ‘taking control’ and I find, bit by bit, that some of the advice and information is ‘sinking in’. So thank you for contributing and providing another valuable resource. It’s important for me to find my own truth and way through the fog of anxiety, indecision, etc., etc. This helps!

In reply to src. Well, wouldn't you rather feel happy not valuing a damn thing than unhappy doing it? If so, there are a bunch of things you can try that might help.

In reply to Spencer. Yeah... can't seem to value a damn thing these days.

In reply to src. Because you value being happy, or because you don't want to suffer, or because you value helping others, or because there is a change you would like to make in the world, or because you don't want the people who care about you to suffer, or because there is something you'd like to accomplish.

Sometimes I wonder what the point is of any of this. Why not just wait to die?
