Title: What is your greatest fear?
Post by: joywind on July 09, 2013, 08:39 am
My greatest fear is solipsism. I had an intense paranoid feeling when taking LSD some time ago that I really was the only consciousness in the universe and all my friends, all my family and everything and everyone I knew and loved were just an illusion I dreamed up and then deliberately forgot that I was dreaming to save myself from a primal, inescapable loneliness.

Death....not my own really, but my loved ones.   I think that's why I take drugs...people close to me cut down in the prime of their lives and the fear of losing more.   If anybody ever figures out a way to proactively handle grief,  let me know.   Thanks for starting the thread...good question.   8)

I have worked hard to develop that ability to not let too much shit get me down, and not stress over what is out of my hands. But, I still worry about bad things happening to my family. I'm devastated by the thought of my kid or parents or close family having an accident or a terrible illness.

That's not a fear, that's how things are. Your friends, your loved ones, the outside world etc. are all illusions in reality. The only real thing is your consciousness and you cannot be sure of anything else. You cannot separate the seen from the seer, so everything that's not the seer is an illusion in definitive, it's not real (for what it concern the fact that you can be SURE it exists).

But the point is that it doesn't really matter. On the contrary knowing this should give you liberty and freedom, because you understand that life is a theater and you are an actor in it, and this will give you the power to turn a possible tragedy in a comedy and enjoy what's happening to the most. In definitive it doesn't matter anything at all if your friends, your loved ones etc. exist or not, it just matters if you enjoy the illusion or not.

If you do, then enjoy it to the most, and if you don't, just turn the eyes somewhere else and immerse yourself into another kind of illusion.

My greatest fear is strangely my greatest fantasy. Being completely destroyed, as in a fucking industrial grinder or crushed by a crane or something sick that a good Loan Shark would opt for....

No, wait. I take that back. Maybe, just life after death. Yeah... that.

The whack thought processes that many powerful individuals and others who influence geo-political forces run thru before making retarded decisions that would be funnier than a circus clown - if they were even funny. Not really a fear, because large communities have some good pull for decision making, although at the large scale over the last few years, failure to find common ground between varying political ideologies has shown the stupid and aggressive side of humanity.

We're animals without societal expectations at least in basic terms, and the thought that a common civility can't often be found between several religions and cultures is irrational, but irrational thoughts, unsupported by solid facts can help us thru the most disturbing events in our lives. Stay strong minded and true to your principles. Don't; then I fear YOU, Punk Ass Muthafucka!

I'm stoned trying to keep to the topic, but I have a question for scammers (actually, no. People with ethics that know the tru side of a smirking dickhead screwing normal people because they think their lying is cleaver and manipulating. So to stay on topic, my fear changed to unethical scammers in big industry and lone douchebaggery BS. How do we exterminate this problem?

Death.

If I could be immortal, Highlander style (but without the swordplay), that would be juuuuuuuuuuust peachy.

Instead I have to face an eternity of non-existence. Can happen at any time too. That sucks.
Title: Re: What is your greatest fear?
Post by: GlenRunciter on July 20, 2013, 09:33 am
I don't think an eternity of non-existence is anything to fear though....IF that is what death is.   We won't be conscious for it, so it's not like we are going to be sitting in a pitch dark room twiddling our thumbs for eternity.....conscious of our boredom.   It will be like sleeping...or it will be nothing (like being knocked out for surgery).    Either way, it's nothing to worry about or fear.  It just is what it is.      We're all going to the same place...so it will be like a big, unconscious mind-meld in the sky.     No sweat.     8)

Without trustworthy lieutenants, being an autocrat is pretty much the suckiest job ever.

One of my greatest fears is being put in a situation where I cannot procure drugs of any kind.  Societal collapse of some kind where Internet access goes out via widespread electricity failure and sabotage.  Mail service is cut off or scaled back due to the skyrocketing cost of gasoline or the government's inability to pay postal workers...back to horseback parcel delivery.   Ground transportation comes to a screeching halt, borders and Customs offices are closed due to emergency conditions.   Street dealers quickly run out of stock b/c they cannot be resupplied.   All of sudden, you are forced to rely on extremely local hook-ups or be self-sufficient by creating your own drug supply.  However, due to dramatic shifts in the climate or nuclear contamination, no vegetation can grow anymore or be consumed.  So opium poppies and ganja become out of the question.....anyway, the remaining marijuana plants in the ground are immediately dug up and used for hemp products....since we can no longer import cheap clothing from China.   Opium poppies are all yanked out of the ground b/c of global morphine shortages from mass casualties and civilian injuries resulting from a multitude of regional wars breaking out over dwindling natural resources.     Chemicals used in meth and pharmaceutical labs are confiscated and used by our military and emergency responders because of major shortages due to the global emergency at hand.   All of a sudden, wondering how we get our next meal and protecting our home and family from looting and roving militias becomes a higher priority than drug seeking recreational amusement.  The party is over.  Sobriety sucks.    ;)   Smoke 'em while ya got 'em.   8)   And stock up  while the getting is good...three years worth of your drug of choice in an underground bunker, like the Mormons do with food.    ;D

We should have a survivalist retreat in the upper atmosphere housed in a giant zeppelin.

It's a lot cheaper than a space station, a lot more practical, while being way out of reach of nuclear holocaust and contaminated water and soil.

Use hydroponics, water treatment, large greenhouses and other systems aboard a huge zeppelin to create a survivalist retreat that's more or less entirely independent.

Obviously, you want to stock up on food, water, medical supplies, opium poppies, ganja, the basic medicinal herbs, basic food crops, basic lifestock, etc, etc.

And DRUGS. In a post-apocalyptic world, you need as much drugs, sex, gambling and partying as you can get.

You're going to need it.

And stock up  while the getting is good...three years worth of your drug of choice in an underground bunker, like the Mormons do with food.    ;D

I'm surprised when people put "failing" as their greatest fear.  Failing is a part of life, and a great learning experience.  I know there is no right answer to the question "what is your greatest fear?"  but -failure- seems like a lame answer.   It also doesn't seem realistic.

+1 for this.

The first thought when I read the thread title was being eaten by spiders, followed by my wife dying before I do. Those are the greatest fears I still harbor.

The life span of grief seems infinite at times, when I am wallowing in my own crapulence.

"I know about pain, I know about suffering, but I just wanna FUCK!" My nod to Jane's Addiction.

Spiders creep me the fuck out, seriously. They breathe through their hairy skin, have eight legs and eyes, and require the death of living things to sustain theirs.

never finding "true love" 

I have trust issues in general with humanity. . .

i'm great at attracting women but suck at relationships probably because i project an end to the relationship before i even give it a chance to blossom. . .



Title: Re: What is your greatest fear?
Post by: GlenRunciter on September 01, 2013, 02:42 am
Well I wouldn't be too hard on yourself.  ;)  I am very skeptical about the reality of "true love."   It's likely just a myth.   :o   I think there are many, many people out there who we could be compatible with.   It causes me to be skeptical of monogamy itself.    :P   Are men and women -really- supposed to only be with one mate throughout their lifetimes....that actually doesn't seem to comport with our natural instincts, human nature, or even what we see in the wild.   

The fact that you unconsciously try to sabotage relationships before they bloom into something truly meaningful seems fairly typical.  It's a self-defense mechanism...to keep from being hurt when the relationship eventually crumbles, and also to provide a WAY OUT of a relationship...by acting badly, we almost force the other person to kick us to the curb.  This helps the ego too, b/c we end up rationalizing the break-up as the fault of the other person..."well, she was the one who kicked me out, I loved her and wanted to be with her....blah blah."  But really we're just forcing her hand by acting out.    At least this is how it's always worked out in my relationships... so maybe I'm just psychologically skewed.     ::) ;)

At present we only use 6 or 8 and for that reason we are where we are .    Do not fear there is no need too.. Live with LOVE and only LOVE.

Something like this, probably.

But it's a bit hard to say. What is your greatest fear, or what are you most afraid of? What I mean is, what are the chances someone would torture you to death. Unless you're James Bond, that chance is not that big.

Otherwise I can just say "watch the Saw movies", and that'll be my greatest fear. And while that's not impossible, most of us would not be very scared of that happening because the odds of such a thing happening are so small.
Infinite Time :/ Scary as hell to think about...
Good one. That's a bit like solitary confinement in prison. Time seems endless, and you are quickly done exploring everything there is to explore.

If your time was really infinite, you would eventually have explored every nook and cranny on this earth. It would feel no different from solitary confinement. Civilizations coming and going.. So many.

"High up in the north, in the land called Svithjod, there stands a rock. It is a hundred miles high and a hundred miles wide. Once every thousand years a little bird comes to this rock to sharpen its beak.

When the rock has thus been worn away, then a single day of eternity will have gone by."

Quote from The Story of Mankind by Hendrik Willem Van Loon.
and getting caught in a situation where i dont have a gun and i cant even shoot back or run (just stuck)
This happens to me in dreams all the time. Been a while now, but I've dreamed it several times. In those dreams I do have a gun, but the trigger is stuck somehow. It won't fire.

Let me tell you this. When some of your biggest fears already came true, when you've got nothing left to lose. You won't be afraid of death anymore. Neither will you have anything to live for.

It's actually good if you're afraid of death. It means you still do have something to live for.

My biggest fear is reading through five pages of this thread only to realize I actually didn't post on here before hahah, but seriously...

Infinite time seems very scary, because on a deep shroom trip I feel like I experienced that and it scared the fuck out of me.

I used to be scared of the after life, but through psychedelics I now look forward to it... Just not anytime soon lol
I used to be scared that when we died everything went black and there was nothing, no me, no consciousness. Then I thought, well shit if that happens I won't have to worry about it because my existence will be gone only leaving behind my impressions I left on individuals on that strange rock I lived on floating through space.
Then I thought, okay what if there is a heaven... I'm not talking catholic type heaven having to obey the commandments and shit. But I believe that if there is a heaven that as long as you are a genuine good person you should be straight. And yeah I've made some bad decisions in my life, but I strive to be a good person. I hope that counts.

I'm scared of not being able to protect my family when they need protected. I exercise my second amendment rights to carry a gun, but what if I'm not around to help them. I'm scared of losing my mind. I've lost my mind on intense trips and through all the blur I remember some aspects of it and if I lost my mind for good that would blow.

But honestly my greatest fear is getting raped pulp fiction style in the basement of a pawn shop.

I wish I could wipe away all these fears.
