    I agree completely.
    All I ever lead to is chaos.



    If, after we have recognized intuitively a number of simple truths, we wish to draw any inference from them, it is useful to run them over in a continuous and uninterrupted act of thought, to reflect upon their relations to one another, and to grasp together distinctly a number of these propositions so far as is possible at the same time. For this is a way of making our knowledge much more certain, and of greatly increasing the power of the mind.

    We ought to give the whole of our attention to the most insignificant and most easily mastered facts, and remain a long time in contemplation of them until we are accustomed to behold the truth clearly and distinctly.

    The Meditator reasons that he need only find some reason to doubt his present opinions in order to prompt him to seek sturdier foundations for his knowledge. Rather than doubt every one of his opinions individually, he reasons that he might cast them all into doubt if he can doubt the foundations and basic principles upon which his opinions are founded.

    Personally mate I try to avoid the nut jobs online who are so biased they are almost directly on the lines of insane. I don't subscribe to hating any one people as I save my reservations on what I hear and see about their actions. Personally however I try my very best to be as neutral as possible. Why bother trying to win someone over? If they want to see your line of thinking then they have to step in the middle like everyone else and look at it from the opposite's perspective. But that is just me.

    I agree on the fact that they are judged. But I like to think they're only judged if they want to be judged. Seriously, it's the internet. Nobody will ask or point a finger towards you unless you tell them you're fucking crazy. A nut in their entire mind (couldn't have phrased it better..) doesn't go all over the internet bragging about his issue in order to hear people's opinions. That's an attention whore's job.

    If they don't like to be judged then they shouldn't let people know in the first place. That, unless it's obvious, in which case I suppose they just have to deal with some things. My opinion is that, if their illness is that obvious, they should learn how not to give a shit anymore. If they want to be on the internet, that is.

    It's interesting but I think especially personality orders are blown way out of proportion. I don't mean their portrayal in films etc (people like that do exist, after all) but the effect they have in somebody's daily life. It's different for shit like schizophrenia, which legitimately debilitates a person completely, but anti-social personality disorder and the like can go without diagnosis forever. It doesn't have to impact a person's life much.

    Yes, they can go without diagnosis forever and a lot do. But I'm not that sure about the impact on a person's life. After all, a person's life can be controlled by the way the person does things. The deeds of a person are all relative to the way the person thinks. If he will think differently than the other people, the life shall also be different, of course. I suppose "grades" and "types" of a personality disorder are different in every person, because in all the other people whom I've met that had Antisocial or Schizoid Personality Disorder it would manifest differently. But all the cases I've seen also seemed to have a radically different life from a completely normal person's one.

    I should feel sorry for having not understood a single bit of that or its purpose in this subject.
