Can someone debug my brain?

[stefanhendriks]

Actually, since 3 weeks or more i feel depressed. I am not gonna tell why and all, but i will give you hints:
1 personal past
2 dad
3 school
4 gf broke up on me (now that aint a real hint hmm)

Especially point 1 and 2 are important. Point 3 is important , though i do not care about it due point 1 and 2. Point 1 is also related to something i am used to do, thinking in negatives (ie, its never good enough, its never gonna work out, etc etc etc). Can someone debug my brain to remove that? It would make life a lot easier.

sad.. depression is the worst.. best thing is be with freinds you like and not cut yourself from the world

got to talk with someone at school. He said, not to worry about the tests i am having this week and just do what suits best for myself. So i am gonna swim today... clears ur head.

As you can see with this little simulation you can reach nirvana by your 52nd year.

We don't know whether being optimistic in life is a rational choice or not. However, choosing to be pessimistic, IS an irrational choice. Not only it does not solve anything, but it stockpiles additional trouble on top of those we have, and it is by essence a painful thought.

Identically, chosing to feel depressed about things you can't control is irrelevant since there is no choice in these cases, but to integrate these things as facts. As long as you'll be refusing to integrate them in your own system of thought, you will think wrong, you won't understand why, and the bigger your troubles will grow.

Don't forget who you are, and formulate for yourself clearly what you want.

Heyyo,

LMAO @PMB's code post: hahaha hallarious.

Yeah dude, just be with good friends, that always helps dude. I ain't no lama like PMB, but yeah, friends is always good. If they're good friends, they'll hear out out no matter wth you say. Sure, after highschool n' now I'm in college I've changed over to the quote "cool" unquote group, I still remember who me buds are, n' we always ramble on msn messenger with stuff like, "dude, come play Far Cry Coop with me," and he'd be like "no dude, Far Cry netcode sucks!" and so on... lol.

Yeah, whatever makes you confortable always sets you at ease. I was taught to make an uncomfortable situation easier on you is to imagine yourself, doing what you love to do the most, and just remember how you felt then, n' how hey, you should always feel that great. It worked with me on tests. My fav place is yep, on the coutch infront of the tv. Since sometimes I used to try n' do homework, it kindof helped during tests, cause I'd be like, "Ohh yeah, during the 2nd commercial break to 'The Man Show' I remembered reading a paragraph about this question on the test!!!" So dude, if you can somehow manage to tie in homework with swimming? (maybe laminated papers or water proof paper/pens? ) it might help during tests.

And here's another thing you can do dude. Every time you feel a letdown, give yourself an affirmation like, "I chose to remember the past to remind me that I do better now." The hard part aboot good affirmations, is it can't contain the word will, cause that leaves you an option, and you might exploit that n' decide not to kindof thing.

Heh, that little course of "Thought Patterns for a Successsful Carrer," is starting to come in handy again. It's a crazy course man, if you can? take something like it... it teaches you to think aboot your thoughts, and teaches you how the common sense our brain employs on anything... it's deep man... like, and not deep end of a pool deep, like 2000 leagues under the sea deep...

trouble /= self_confidence;

be careful that you get no divide by zero ... somewhen this float will be zero and cause fpu faults.

( i could start such a thread almost every second day cool, isnt it )

so now all we need is access to the basic OS of the brain, and the decompiler - bet we can't find that on downloads.com

If anyone does figure it out, can you have a go at debugging mine? I seem to have a number of problems, including, but not limited to, depression, skitzophrenia (that's hearing voices), talking to myself, answering myself back, and delusions of being a Radio DJ (LCR 1350AM, Monday, 1-4PM BST - catch it live on the webcast at www.lcr1350.co.uk)
