I believe this is easily a pillthat can rival other truly brutal ones, due to the immense suffering our own bodies can cause us. Sometimes we forget that we are closer to tragedy than to success—or anything like it—and this becomes more evident when we realize we inhabit machines of flesh and blood, with hyper-complex systems that interact with one another. We could even say it's a miracle that something doesn’t go wrong. Still, given the imperfection of our design, we are not exempt from the immense pain we can endure when something goes wrong with our bodies. Illnesses that arise on their own feel like a betrayal... How is it that a system designed to keep me alive becomes the very thing that makes me wish I were dead? Is there a greater betrayal than that?

One of the main causes of suffering is the body, which is ironically designed to propel something forward, that is for existence in the flesh to thrive but laughably it has its faults despite its induction into reality being to sustain something. This shows the imperfect nature of life, how its one big meme. This leads me to believe the body is a vessel, a meat prison, one for which we have immense Stockholm syndrome for.

*watches three and a half minutes of an animated video essay on Nietzsche
funny but actually if you read his works, you will find an inextricable connection between the body's differentiation and his conception of the Will. Can understand how it sounds cringe though especially to someone who has in fact only watched three and a half minutes of Nietzsche

returning to Schopenhauerian metaphysics and Manicheanism is a low level move esp. when you criticise Nietzsche who has transcended both conceptions.

Nietzsche just strikes me as a cope.

Also its worth stating, My beliefs or statements just came to be naturally though slightly influenced or rather encouraged by gnosticism. That is to say I have not read or researched a single philosopher or philosophical branch in depth.

he is definitely cope according to the popular interpreation, muh "Vril coded". He was actually a very astute, subtle, and erudite philosopher , not a schizo living on a mountain who just made up stuff from nothing.

Nietzsche is the philosopher every 13 year old who is slightly edgy vouches for tbh.

That is my personal belief.

This is not as to say he is a fool, he certainly touches on juicy concepts from what I have seen. Though the crux of his philosophy is cringe to me.

There isnt. Those who dont have chronic illness, consider yourselves lucky. It’s harder to enjoy anything when you’re in pain or have other weird neurological symtomps. Everyday is impending doom, knowing there is no cure, knowing symptoms could get worse. The moment my eyes open in the morning and I remember my life, the misery of living ensues.

A bunch but worst is TMJ disorder has been a pain in the ass. Neck, shoulders, and jaw hurt, tinnitus, muscle spasms, ear pain. One night i went to sleep and felt like I was suffocating due to pressure in my face. Best part of this all, no cure!
do you hear a clicking sound in jaw like a side of ur face almost feels numb but theres a low but constant pain and it gets worse when you do the chewing motion? i had it once, but i dont know if thats tmj

It is. If it went away, it likely won’t progress. If it was numb your jaw might have locked very slightly or just became inflamed a bit. Usually if you overchew for a period of time it can happen. You're not supposed to chew so much if so and to limit inflammation as much as possible. Sadly mines is probably due to a stupid fucking orthodontist who made my jaw move in an unnatural position and caused my joint to move out of place. At least thats what i think now, going to see a “specialist” soon lmao. Also for the record, i dont chew anymore kek. I eat like im in a fucking nursing home without dentures so my joint doesn’t deteriorate

your body when it configured itself was innocent, it was following a simple metaphysical will to power. The fact that such a metaphysical will exists is itself one of the most heroic and also the most tragic thing at the same time.
Let me tell you bro, but I felt that you wrote this with your heart... Like so tragic, yet so. I can't write it because I admit I'm still highly pessimistic yeah... Beautiful, beautiful was the word.
