Well, I can say this much: never discuss your philosophy on life and death with your doctor, because you'll need to find another doctor after they flip their shit and assume you're going to off yourself.

I guess it depends on the type of philosophic thinking.
What?
The cynicism of reality;
the full spectrum of self awareness;
the layers upon layers of conflicting correct perspectives;
an understanding of the duality of order and chaos;
the crippling nature of battling a skilled Platonic sophist;
unmasking sadism;
the constant internal revisionism of curiosity and self growth;
the abstractions of the philosopher must come at a cost, and one must ask what is the price of thought.
itβs that kind of thinking that gets me hard
Depends on what branch of Philosophy you follow.
They can happen at the same time, but no, they're entirely independent
Not necessarily. Philosophy has several currents of interpretation of reality
optimistic nihilism. Life is meaningless so might as well thrive.
one is a mania with a physical root cause while the other one isn't.
huh
