Yeah, my anxiety disorder has been really disability. Mental health suck. Really i would rather physical pain than mental one. And yeah, it come from stoic philosophy which is kinda the best mindset to accept hardship in life and things we cannot control but don't like. It very hard to assimilate though, especially for a ruminating anxiety prone mind like mine, but there is not better way to handle things in life than being a stoic.

Well, I'll leave it to her to see if she can help you haha.

She has made me happier, more positive and so fucking horny :D

Two? One is more than enough. You can't handle so much perfection at the same time, without having an heart attack anyways :D

Fuck yeah to Stoicism. Glad that your also talking about therapy and meds, really bothers me when people tout Stoicism as a cure all for everything.

Stoicism cannot cure pathological problems. But can help to handle it a lot. Therapy is based on that. Meds, I took it in the past, they help surely, save your life when you only think about killing yourself and make you fuction like a normal person, but I will try to not to be dependant. But if things get rough I will happily use it.

Yeah, Stoicism has helped me a lot, I think the more people that are aware of it the better it's a much healthier way of looking at the world. Stoicism for day to day living. Therapy and/or meds for pathological problems.
