(Mistake -I referred a post)Thank you @Leo Gura for the considereration but I would describe my situation as the following like I have anger due to past bullying, rejection, insults, boys bullying me infront of girls etc. I have eaten antidepressants and antipsychotics for 5 years but now I am off from them. My mind imagines that past by taking hypothetical scenarios. I have been meditating daily for 4 years but this year it is irregular, contemplating for 3 years but again this year is irregular. I have been on therapy and I have discovered that the techniques they share with you are equivalent to self help techniques or even I find self help content more better than what my psychiatrist said to me. Is it accurate to remind myself in the midst of suffering that suffering is temporary and future adversities will also be temporary and I will soon be out of my college having an improved life ? Could you suggest some mindsets + action tips for me ? And also I have discovered that being authentic is related to being in the present moment. Like yesterday my friend said something on WhatsApp and I said what came to my mind and he responded by laughing emoji. And also how to be authentic around girls ? I also discovered that positive self talk during feeling bad lessens feeling bad .

@Leo Gura thanks for putting effort into helping people but I cannot buy your course as it is very costly for me as I am from an Indian upper middle class family and $250 translated to rupees is a huge amount sorry. Maybe I must rely on your free videos and the self help courses that I took earlier for my success. Sorry.

I am now practicing detachment by not looking at every girl who passes by and it has improved my results with some girls looking at me . Even tough I must balance it with conversation.

@Princess Arabia I saw some girls staring at me and then I looked away.

Hi , a 23 year old Virgin here. I am sorry that you are going through this . I think that prostitution is like spreader of STDs.

@Leo Gura so frame or confidence is the belief in oneself despite others judge you or criticize you ?

@integral From my experience I think that it is not right to expose normie to your personal development materials. Sometimes ago I made a post titled - Embracing the path of personal development. They even don't follow their own philosophy or their own truth and just give advice to other's.

@Leo Gura ok thank you . So for me being social is the key.

@Leo Gura does game/pickup apply to India. If I am an Indian and I am being rejected by girls always then what's the solution. Can warm approach/friend circle work ? I once said I love you to a girl online , she rejected me and the next day her friend gave me a threat over phone. Is it true that I can find someone else despite not having an initial relationship experience in college ? But how to do it because cold approach doesn't work in India. When you approach a random girl you get threat from either her boyfriend or her friend. And I don't understand even tough it's an issue of past and is gone why does my mind keep bringing that issue again and again . Also it is true that rather focussing on getting a girlfriend, I must focus on finding a girlfriend? Must I focus on future rather than past to move ahead of rejections ?

I have frequent thoughts of past like how people hurted me , bullied me and by remembering that I either say nasty things to themselves in my mind or feel angry. How do I overcome it or do I have to do self reflection which is feeling inwards?

Guys , the thing is that I have immense anger against girls who didn't loved me /rejected me and because of that I couldn't sleep whole night. I am cursing them , praying that something bad befalls on the girls in my batch who have boyfriends. I am acting as tough those girls are present infront of me and I am beating those girls who rejected me and then went to some other boys of my batch. It is happening right now. I know that it is bad but I don't understand how to control anger. Is hoping that I will find some other girl and I need not care about those girls who treated me badly the key ?

@Ben2204 same here dude I am also a 23 year old guy but I have never punished innocent girls . I have been abused , bullied by girls too. Threatened by their friends , boyfriends. Never had a girlfriend. I think that the solution is to realise that you are already worth of love wether girls love you or not.

@Lyubov thanks . Currently , I read the hardcopy of a self help book that I bought - The courage to be disliked and it said that my / one's worth ifor love and respect is inherent irrespective of external circumstances.

To all those struggling with mental health -- we will make it through , best of luck.

@Leo Gura yeah hope your health improves.

I have frequent thoughts of past like how people hurted me , bullied me and by remembering that I either say nasty things to themselves in my mind or feel angry. How do I overcome it ? @Leo Gura any upcoming video on emotional mastery or anger or do I have to do self reflection which is feeling inwards?

@Applegarden8 yeah but her profile is showing that she last visited the forum on May 2 don't know that will she return or not

@Rafael Thundercat yeah that's right. And also I need to limit my exposure to them .

Hey everyone ,it is difficult to walk the path of personal development . My friends insult Western philosophy like stoicism ,Greek philosophy they say that it is not rational and they insult me for watching these kind of videos. They say that God Krishna (Hinduism )has got a superior philosophy than other philosophies . Whenever They see me reading a self help book they say that to read Bhagavad Gita . I appreciate Indian philosophy like Bhagavad Gita besides Buddhism and Western philosophy .I can say that Bhagavad Gita gives the freedom to believe in any God they betray their own philosophy by misunderstanding other religions. They never watch personal development videos but rather Instagram reels , YouTube shorts etc. Some of my friends who are not in my group and who give me advice to read Bhagavad Gita smokes cigrete while being college students , spend hours watching reels , YouTube shorts, playing video games. Even tough different philosophies talk about different things but the function of these things is to improve one's life isn't it ? They themselves don't read Gita .And psychology has taken a counterintuitive route such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy which integrated Western stoicism to mindfulness of Buddhism ? Recently I ordered a book Tao Te Ching on Amazon Kindle. So guys you can share your thoughts on this.

@Rafael Thundercat nobody I think.

@Rafael Thundercat yeah I must not expose them to my personal development materials.

@thenondualtankie ok.

@Nilsi yeah .

@Nilsi ok.

@Nilsi I understood it a little. One of my friends told me that you are not Oppenheimer and you can't practice philosophy if you are a student of science.
