Why am I so weak? Why can’t I just stop feeling? Why is my mood ultimately decided but what others do instead of what I do? There’s no thing such as lifting away these feels anons, thats just cope. Time doesn’t heal, just makes you forget about it temporarily. I wish hitting the gym would have fixed me mentally the same way it did physically

You're overthinking this.

You're not responsible for other people's feelings.
you can't fix them, you cannot save them. at least not at the expense of yourself.

you need to prioritize like this:
1. you
2. your needs
3. your goals
4. your wants

anyone else.

But how? I keep repeating this to myself but my subconscious can’t change it. I was very influenced by disney and their happy endings that are always two people being together or finding happiness in someone else. I enjoy being by myself but hate being alone. I don’t know how to prioritize myself instead of others

We are humans. We feel. You can’t change that. Just get used to it

Just spam antidepressants and kill your emotions
Or stop suckling on others’ teats for emotional nourishment and look inwardly to fulfill yourself. Why are you unhappy when alone? When you sit in a comfortable position, close, your eyes, and take a deep breath, what’s the first thought of anxiety that crosses your mind?

I enjoy being by myself. It keeps my head calm. But as soon as I start thinking a bit, I feel like I’m missing something. Like I’m not as happy as I could be. I have friends, family and they are the reason I’m still somewhat sane. But they are also the reason why I’m so dependant on others for my wellbeing.
What’s this? An author or a title?

>I don’t know how to prioritize myself instead of others

Is your goal the pleasure of others? are you a prostitute?

no, of course not. you have goals and aspirations. whatever they are, you need time and energy to achieve them.
if you're constantly changing course because others say so you end up going nowhere.

Set your mind to the task at hand, and do nothing that is not to your benefit or for the benefit of your goal.

Ultimately you will achieve your goal or you will find an excuse. Which one do you want?

And what goals should I go for? The most important one I have is finish college and find a good job. But I can’t think of other thing than that rn.

He was a pretty decent philosopher who wrote some shit you’re not going to fully grasp without an undergrad degree or equivalent in philosophy and the user suggesting him probably doesn’t understand Spinoza either.

Also he was Jewish, just in case you’re one of the nazis that post here and that dissuades you.
