That's weird and hard to comprehend. I know what you mean. When I was young, I would try to comprehend the absence of the universe -- complete oblivion. Not sure why that was on my mind at a young age, but it was, and I suppose it's psychologically equivalent to trying to comprehend my own demise, but on a grander scale. Superficially one can say "yeah, the absence of the universe, okay, so there's nothing, duh, easy to understand." But I would seriously focus on it, close my eyes, and meditate on nothing. No space. No time. Just nothing. And sometimes I felt like I would get close, inching a bit toward understanding an unfathomable notion, something my mere mortal mind is incapable of comprehending -- but even that tiny, infinitesimal foray into grasping oblivion left me with such a profound sense of... I can't even really describe it. Philosophical terror, awe. It's an ineffable sensation. --- Venmo @JosiahP17 (Send some cash my way because I said so) <cite>Josiah_Is_Back posted [p:950073696] in If death w...

Wetterdew 01/29/21 11:15:09 PM #8:	Like, after a long enough time of living in your subconscious without any real interactions I feel like your mind is just going to deteriorate and you'll lose your sanity. Your mental processes are really crippled during dreams. You can't think straight. And after long enough I feel like your dreams and mental state would deteriorate to the point where you live in this kind of reality https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jE6UqdoOtHo And yeah I'd rather just stop existing than be trapped in that kind of mental state. --- Talking about video games? it's ok to just disagree with each other on the internet.
