The Psychopathology of the Self
Some people say that what we need to do is realize that the self is an illusion. It may be, at least for me, it was extremely harmful and perhaps still is. Sometimes these lessons that are told to us by philosophers or spiritual gurus should be taken with such a grain of salt. And I've come to the conclusion that if it's not life affirming, then perhaps don't follow that. Perhaps use that as a clue that that's a pathological path and don't do anything that can be drastic. Don't give up because I felt like I was in a state where I could snap and feel like, well, this is all a dream.
