I'm seeing one. She tells me to comfort my inner child and parent it so that I can grow up properly... however I'm supposed to do that.
When I get into these paralysed blockages of terror at my own inertia, soul-searching is the last thing I want to do. I just want to cease to exist so that it will all go away. Hence nihilism and dead bodies. Sometimes when I do this I feel like I am committing a long, slow suicide. I am checking out of life until the storm passes... and the storm will never fully pass...
Well, forget what you were told. What do you remember about what your childhood was like. You're allowed in think whatever you want to think, OP. No one can tell you what to think.
IIN I feel so overwhelmed I just give up?

Get some purpose going in your life. And lower your stress also, possibly see a therapist for that.

I somewhat understand that suggestion, but therapist ought to give OP some guidance on how to actually parent his inner child.

Same - it just sounds super strange out of context.
Dafuq? Isn't that the black kid walking around the 'hood with his pants pulled down, or am I thinking of DeShawn.
Your therapist sounds like some hipster tard. Get a new one.
What was your childhood like?

In a word - passive. Life, school, my parents' will just sort of carried me along. I kept to myself and waited for my mom to tell me to do something.

I don't know. I was told that I was happy and wasn't allowed to think that I was anything else.
