Am i losing my mind?

7 Comments

For a long time I have seen people as some structures or programs, organisms, you choose.. Like I'm just terrified by the fact that, for example, we eat some chemical structures and process them into other chemical structures that we later on reject from our body or transfer into energy, so we can live!! I mean, what are we? And all these complex things we do, like helping each other out, where does that even come from? It used to help us connect as a team, while we were still hunter-gatherers, probably. And what about our weird bodies? Why does this all seem so creepy and alien to me, it's driving me nuts. I can't go outside without becoming terrified from all these organisms, I've become extremely disconnected emotionally, and nothing makes sense. Every normal bodily process seems so alien, like an itch, a pain, a fever, a movement, anything you can imagine. I don't know where do these come from, and I am so disconnected. It's so so very creepy. Am I losing my mind? And if so, what's happening to me?

    It sounds more of an obsession than a realization. I have a form of ocd that is all about that sort of stuff. I'll put the world or people in a different frame and usually one that depresses quality of life. You should get help if this persists.

    Perhaps you are an alien (no not a Latino without papers) whose programming is wearing off and you are indeed a stranger in your own skin.
    Time will tell.

    You're actually a lizard person born in a human body.

    In my mind, I'm just gonna guess that you just now realized this about a week ago (no pun intended) and now it's driving you Insane. Well, that's just what our bodies do. Every organism is made up of insanely complex, and sometimes simple, compounds, elements, and chemicals, whilst we eat, and drink to process them. Or like a plant can automatically harness the power of the sun just by growing from the mere sapling it once was, all by repeating the process. Harness. Procreate. Repeat. It's simple, yet if you go deep, it's complex. You went deep. From our emotional and mental spectrum, we're meant to just eat, sleep, and gain intelligence, and whatever else you, or anybody else thinks.

      I've been thinking about this for a year. I always knew that that's how we work, but in my mind it just seems creepy and nonsense, like why do we do this?
      And I went totally asexual. I only see people as some structures, I'm not attracted to them anymore. Like you'd say eyes are pretty, but I only see some complex structures used for noticing things around us, nothing more. Not pretty, not charming. Just some structures, within other structures, all contributing to a nonsense.

        Eh. I feel the same way... I don't think any part of the human body is pretty... (Except breasts, but that's actually on topic) it's all just meant for survival, and basic needs. And sometimes, eccentric. It's all the body is, complex workings of survival, all organs supporting your brain, and so on. But I find it a tad odd how your brain sees people as structures, and not actual people. I see people as little tiny mechanical cogs, all working in a much bigger clock.
