  1. ⚠️ Warning If I learned any valuable lesson in recent years is that emotions need to be expressed rather than repressed. And the way that they are going to be expressed here may happen as very strong language. There's nothing personal in that, this is just me expressing myself and expressing repressed emotions like anger, rage, pain, frustration, sadness, depression, despair, etc. Keep this in mind if you choose to read.

  11. Leo has typical INTP issues.
  12. Personal Masculine / Feminine Balance I took this test and got a brain that is 58% masculine / 42% feminine. I remember taking it previously and getting 50% masculine / 50% feminine. Even though I think the quality of the questions is pretty low, the results relate to how I feel. I also took this other test and got a similar result. This makes perfect sense. I never really felt hypermasculine nor hyperfeminine, I don't relate a lot with people who are on the extremes. I think that I'm most of the time balanced with a slight preference for masculinity, however, it varied multiple times during my life. I had periods where I felt very creative, artistic (right brain) and periods where I felt very logical, analytical (left brain). It can be a bit difficult to handle and can feel like two people fighting for control on how to approach life, but even though this is challenging I consider this balance as a strenght. Overall I feel less masculine and more sensitive than most men and at the same time less feminine and more emotionless than most women.
  13. 04/06/2021 (Week 19) If I bring 5 percent more integrity to my relationships... my relationships would be more meaningful I'll be more honest in my relationships people would appreciate me more I'll attract conscious people I'll value relationships more I'll get more satisfaction from my relationships If I remain loyal to the values I believe are right... I feel aligned with myself I entertain high integrity I'll would be more authentic I'll be whole I'll see less the need to defend myself people would respect my more If I refuse to live by values I do not respect... I feel more authentic I entertain high integrity I'm living life for myself rather than for others I'll let go of people who don't resonate with me I'll let go of unneeded thoughts I'll increase my self-respect If I treat my self-respect as a high priority... people would respect me more my life would go my way I'll be more able to make change my life would become a high priority life I'll more joy from life things would go my way the quality of my life would improve
  14. Actually, I feel a bit more clarity after masturbating but that's mostly after not doing it for 2 - 3 days. Masturbating every day do numbs me.
  15. @Striving for more Interesting that you've added socializing into it. It also seems to me that any life experience can improve someone's mental capacity and that any experience can be used later in a different field. The more diverse life experiences someone has, the more flexible its brain is.

  17. I have so much things going on in my mind. I maybe should try writing bigger posts more regularly, however, my issue is that I don't have that much time to journal everyday. Maybe I could try one very big deep post per week. I see that some people journal in order to empty their mind. It could maybe work for me too if I find enough time.
  18. I think that these small posts with a few lines are just a survival strategy that I developt to avoid digging deep into myself.
