Suicide: The Facts

[Stoner Shadow Wolf]

i think i see where ssw is coming from. but to me, i see the brain as a transceiver, accepting and sending out intangible info, brain rain. also saw that somewhere talking about spirituality.

me again.


yes, the brain recieves input from the mind, things like speach, and blinking, heart beat, and balance. that is mind - to - brain.

brain - to - mind would be sights, smells, sounds, tastes, and feelings.

the mind and brain must work simultaniousely in order to perform magic.

this includes pyrokenisis, telekenisis, telepathy, clairvoyance, and empathy.

people who lose one sense are granted a gift.

they are given an oprutunity to realize their other potential senses, someone who loses their eyesight might be able to see into the future. the loss of the sense of touch is replaced with a heightened understanding of sounds and light, so as to SEE and HEAR what you would normally FEEL. this cannot be explained, only experianced.


and about the numb thing, i dont actually know that, they could be given pyrokenisis for all i know lol


i lost most of my hearing, and i have poor eyesight. in turn, i have been able to filter thought bullshit very well, i cannot hear all the lies, but the truth is always glaring. if it is not spoken, it has been seen, and eventually confirmed in speach... sometimes research :P


god, shut me up!

Where the fekk is this "remote control", ya mean Big Brother has a chip in ya making you perform to specs? Your "mind" is a collection of thoughts, experiences and sensations stored in the Brain. Your brain is the computer.

you ARE the remote controll. YOU as in your spirit, soul, mind, and ego. the completely nonexistant YOU.

that is the remote.

your mind is the remote to your brain which is the remote to your body.

you forgot apathy

[Stoner Shadow Wolf]

apathy would be learned, it is an additive, negative thoughts and feelings are not immediately natural in a virgin ego, untouched by the thoughts of the omniverse, the mind.

and in such primitive circumstances as lacking physical substance, one would treat negative thoughts like sin, it would be the equivelant of a physical death to observe the thought of hatred.

Yeah just about everyone gets depressed at some point in their life, some people attempt suicide, it's just one of life's things. I went through this cycle, and I may be back there again. It may be considered selfish, etc. but the fact remains that people usually do it because they feel there will be less pain after the fact. I don't think suicide is a good answer, but I feel like people that have taken this particular fork in the road in the past have probably had some sort of mental illness, so therefore I don't consider them stupid or pussies.

One thing that always made me think twice was my little sister who is 13 years younger than I am. She's 12 right now and since she's been able to talk she's been bragging about her big brother. I could never ruin her life by taking mine. Not everyone is like me however, and if you're reading this and are thinking about killing yourself, you shouldn't.

I agree, perhaps buck up isn't quite as 'nice sounding' as some of the other things you guys said... but all in all I meant the same. As the one who claims my post is the most ignorant he's ever seen... well, I'm don't quite feel like stooping to your level, so... I'll let have fun with that one ... Perhaps my negative offset for this thread was influenced by the famous "truestoner" who snowballed a wopping 18 pages yesterday on what was nothing more then a cry for help, and for that, I apologize. But by no means am I, as you said, "ignorant." I just want there to be less pain in the world. It tends to eat at you when you've witnissed as many suicides as I have... Just please, please do NOT call me ignorant.

all that for apathy? lmao. its just the opposite of empathy dude simple n plain.

[Stoner Shadow Wolf]

yes, i know, but apathy is most often used negatively. unto itself, apathy is neither positive nor negative, it's in the grey area, it can be used to protect yourself from the emotions of others, that could be positive, but doing such detatches yourself from that person, which can be negative.

lol sorry for the extensive reply

[UnViaje]

cool with me man, ur just using ur head

think of the brain as an RC human.
think of your mind as the remote controll.

if the reciever in the RC car, the brain in the body, gets broken, why is it the controller's, the mind's, fault?

Humans are not remote controlled toys. Your analogy is weak dude. Humans are completely self-contained.
