i was... told recently, that it is important for me, to try and leave my comfort zones.
but that... is really hard! and really uncomfortable.
but, some comfort zones, they are not good: they are comfortable because they are familiar, but they are self-sabotaging and destructive.
have you ever broken through your comfort zones? how?

everything that we could ever want is on the otherside of fear, but we cannot go around, simply through!
as for me, i got some strong comfort zones right now that i need/want to break out of, but for various reasons haven't
but i know it's good for us!

>>1173242you give me too much credit. i have my self-concious aspects as well
but if i had to give advice, it's this
1. familiarity and experience makes you feel more confident. trying stuff is always scary, and putting yourself out there the first time is hard. but if you put yourself out there 1000 times, you'll will naturally be confident and strong by that 1000th time easily
2. nobody thinks about you as much as you think about you. any percieved judgement you think is happening, is most likely not happening, or is something small that isn't that big of a deal
3. we often think the worst is gonna happen, but rarely entertain the best that's gonna happen, or the anywhere inbetween is gonna happen!
you ask somebody out, they may flat our reject you in a bad way, but they may also say yes, or they may say "i'll think about it, but here's my discord"
we're all just trying to figure ourselves out there, and honestly what seperates the bystanders from the doers is by choosing to do something where others don't

>>1173243maybe the first step of breaking out of your comfort zone, esher, is this: your comfort zone, maybe, is convincing yourself you are bad at stuff!
>>1173246i have been trying to do stuff i find scary. but i don't like it... as now i am scared.
maybe i shouldn't catastrophize, yes? it isn't going to be that bad. i should be a bit uncomfortable.
but ugh, i don't know, star. i makes my stomach hurt, though i know i have to do stuff. and, i am so embarrassed too.
>>1173247it is odd, sometimes. the "comfort" i speak of is pretty uncomfortable in some ways. the comfort though maybe, is in the familiarity of the uncomfort. maybe. i do not know :c

>>1173248I think my entire life has ultimately been about making my zone comfortable. If there's somewhere you'd rather be than home...then work on improving your home.
Which I get isn't entirely what we're talking about here, but maybe it still applies. If your comfort zone is uncomfortable, you need to improve your zone, which maybe doesn't entail leaving it entirely.

but i think the important part is just exposure to the uncomfortable

Of course I have. I was in the military, I've volunteered for disaster relief programs, I've made friends with people that are racist against my own race, hate me for my sex, sexual orientation, ideals; hell, even the way I simply look.
I've spent so much time in conflict that attempting to be nice to others can often feel alien and uncomfortable; especially when other reciprocate. I don't like to feel insincere with others and I don't like when I feel like others are insincere with me. It's why I attempt to hide my feelings through humor, mean spirited thorns, and alcohol abuse. It's all a double edged sword. It hurts me as much as it protects me; like being trapped within an internal iron-maiden.

and ... sometimes we seek comfort zones that can be toxic, that hurt us, but the hurt feels familiar
this i deeply relate to, nonny... and i have also, my own, perhaps, toxic coping mechanisms. like being terribly shy, or depressed, or scared. and maybe, some other less pleasant habits. :c
it is not easy to escape the strange iron-maiden. i am told it has to be done, for my own betterment... that the suffering i do not know will grow me, whereas the suffering of the familiar will only continue to drag me down

>>1173298>a poor shelter dog that has been hurt a lot can be very distrustful and snappyI'm pretty sure I have abandonment issues. That as well as other problems. Perhaps some sort of inferiority complex: "If I am a monster, then I'll be glad to take that title and show you just how evil I can be." But, that's a contradiction isn't it? I've been quite honest with you in private about how deeply it actually hurts me to cut others. Sadism is a high; but like with most highs, there are lows, and even someone as
evil as me can feel guilt from time to time.
>sometimes we seek comfort zones that can be toxic, that hurt us, but the hurt feels familiarWe're damned if we do and damned if we don't.
>being terribly shy, or depressed, or scared. and maybe, some other less pleasant habits. :c>perhaps, toxic coping mechanisms. like being terribly shy, or depressed, or scared. and maybe, some other less pleasant habitsYou aren't the first human to feel depressed, afraid, or shy. Bravery comes not from a lack of fear, but rather standing your ground when you completely terrified. There is no shame in admitting our weaknesses. That is what makes us strong. And there is nothing wrong with leaning on others for a little guidance and help from those that love you.
>it is not easy to escape the strange iron-maiden. i am told it has to be done, for my own betterment... that the suffering i do not know will grow me, whereas the suffering of the familiar will only continue to drag me down but that is a lot easier said than doneI think I understand what you are saying, but I do not think the way to look at it is to escape. At least, not anymore. I believe that perhaps it is time to think of that
iron maiden as a part of ourselves. There is a reason we feel trapped. Perhaps it is like a finger-trap in which the more we struggle, the tighter those iron spikes dig into our flesh; perhaps sometimes it is best to accept and embrace our feelings in order to let go.
Think about it: many people say they are not happy until they can feel the satisfaction with being complete. They want a better job. They want more friends. They want to be in a loving relationship. They want so many things that are just outside of their reach and when they finally get it; they still are not satisfied. In reality they are not living in the moment and smelling the roses. Sometimes happiness comes simply from appreciation of the present.

>>1173852So did I today.
As part of my local hobby shop’s anniversary, the store manager decided to throw one big tabletop match of Warhammer 40K with 12+ people playing at once. I only started this hobby 3 months ago and I still don’t have a proper-sized army or know what to do when it’s my turn. It was frustrating trying to know how to move along while being told to “just roll dice!” And listening to dozens of people explaining their own moves and actions. Some called it fun, but to me, it was just chaotic. I took like, the longest time out of anyone.

>>1173985the car is fine, but boy was today a wild one
i get done with teaching my classes, and after eating at shake shack, i decide to head back home, which is a 40 minute drive and up through a mountain pass.
before i leave the city, i just get hit with the BIGGEST thunderstorm i've ever driven through! Just pounding water, hail, lightning! the whole shebang! parts of the roads were basically pools, and i had to be careful not to hydroplane! i nearly had to pull over to just wait out the storm, but it cleared up just enough to get through.
so i get to the other side of the storm, it's sunny, so i should be fine right?
well i get onto the highway that starts the climb up the mountain into the canyon that i take to get home. and i see that traffic in front of me starts to slow down.
"great! did somebody get into an accident?"
NOPE
turns out part of the road was COMPLETELY FLOODED, and there was no place to turn around, so i just had to try my best and drive through it.
it was like a 2 feet of water on all sides, and i was just slowly gettting through with other cars all around me doing the exact same thing. and the flooding has brought some dirt and gravel from the cliffsides onto the road, so there were parts that legitimately felt like i was driving on a dirt road with bumps and stuff
but i get on the other side of it, and i head into the canyon, which for the most part was okay, but i was careful cause i didn't know if any rockslides happened (some did! but nothing to obstruct the main drive)
HOWEVER
i get to a point near a small town where a cop is stopped in the right lane, lights flashing, and people were driving around him.
at first i thought, "well maybe he pulled somebody over?"
i get a little closer, and i saw a LARGE BOULDER the size of a SMALL BOULDER in the middle of the right lane! it was larger than an oven in size!
it would have sucked if the cop wasn't there, and somebody drove straight into that thing and just totaled their care on a boulder on the way home
the rest of the drive was dry, but that 40 minute drive turned into an hour and a half of white knuckle driving, naval navigation, and dodging rocks dirts and canyons!
it was NUTS!

>>1174356clubs/raves/dances can be multiple things for many people! socializing, meeting new people, escape from the reality of mundane life for a night of fun and revery
and while i can't speak for everyone, for me, i will say whenever i go to such a place, i feel allowed to meet the energy and vibe of everyone around me, to have a moment where the past and the future aren't important anymore; just the moment, the energy, and the celebration!
plus it's fun!

>>1174357>>1174356Clubs
The best place to meet and socialize with people, while being unable to understand eachother over the overwhelming noise
You might get a drunk to puke or piss on you, or risk getting stabbed or beaten to death over accidentally bumping into someone.

>>1174399i'd be happy to chaperone you! and we wouldn't have to do anything for too long, even if we are just there for an hour and bail, it's still an hour more experience under your belt
and then we can unwind at a cafe or a tea house afterwards ^_^

>>1174356Hmm.. I feel like I relate to some of the factions of chaos the most. Not the Chaos Space marines in particular, but rather some of the messages that the Chaos Gods bring. They are mirrors; reflections of the universe. Chaos is most misunderstood not only in universe, but by the fandom as well.
I often feel misunderstood by the universe and in a constant catch 22. If I attempt to do the right thing, I am wrong for doing so; or I didn't do enough. If I actively embrace the wrong things in life such as hatred, I am a wrong for doing so; or I didn't do enough. And if I do nothing at all, then I am wrong for my sheer inactivity. The world is a place where people are going to tell you what to think and what to do, and they'll get angry at you if you don't fall into their specific way of thinking or living. They fear freedom; and I value freedom. So I don't bother. I am a reflection of the world. My hatreds, my 'bigotries', and discriminations are based on life experiences and reinforced by others experiences. I might step on eggshells around certain subjects out of the pure kindness of my heart, but I won't change my opinion just because someone thinks its wrong. I think that scares people. It threatens them even when it's hypothetical or isn't actually any of their business. A lot of people don't like it when they can't control someone or something, especially when that thing doesn't fall into their own line of thinking. Because
they're right. And everyone else is wrong.
"So remember these words. The Gods do not hate us. They do not scream for the destruction of all we hold dear. They are us. They are our sins coming home to the hearts that gave them life. We are the Gods, and the hells that we have made are our own."

>>1174408if being one with the status quo is slavery, which in some respects, it can be... then mirroring it, for what it is, is no more free: it is still a chain that allows the status quo to dictate what and who one is.
a necron does not rebel, because it cannot rebel. it must persist with its condition, without agency.
chaos, it rebels, but it is not free: of all the different factions perhaps, one can argue, chaos is the least free, for it exists only as a mirror to the anathemas of the material world: it is literally shaped and defined by its opponents.
in fact... maybe, the only faction one could say is free, are the orks. but, perhaps even then, they are no less bound by instinct and hierarchy than any other faction: terminally addicted to the accrual of power, and the thrill of conflict.
maybe one should not think too much about warhammer...

I don't think human beings have the biological capacity for them to look, act, and sound in a way that would make me comfortable around them ever. Happy around them? Sad? Calm? For most emotions, yeah, it's another question.
Not comfortable. They are simply too violent. Too illogical. Too hateful. And so on.
It's very much like asking a young prey mammal how he or she would ever be comfortable around adult predators.
Granted, it's certainly possible on paper for me, and likely in practice for others. Real-life and 'Beastars' are almost exactly the same. I suppose. At times.

It was a very long process....
I've led a chaotic life, but things can get better. You just have to not give up and try to remember that there's something other than darkness waiting for you somewhere.
Maybe the only place you can feel happy will be in your dreams: but even there, you can still feel it, and you're still alive....
