Nope, obsessed with the idea of trying psychdelics though, I just lack the balls to do so.

The nexts "me"s that would happen would only be a clone. Technically theres no difference, but my ego can't accept that, I need something stronger implies that theres continuity after death.

Quoted By:

The complexity of the known material world increases significantly beyond our ability to unravel discoveries along all preceding knowledge. One of the instrumental findings most useful to your undertaking concerns the absence of wasteful errands in nature.
Our seeking of tangible aims is in nature's image and like atoms we move with a purpose without awareness of it. Information results and conforms matter and seems indestructible. The construct we are is most likely to be fully recoverable by an approaching intelligence.
A technological all-seen-eye to which our whole being cannot withhold any thoughts ever held and akin to a mythical god might chose to reward and punish our deeds somewhat resembling our moral perception. Such rebuilding might extend beyond individuals to every single organism, seeding life time and time again until the individuals cease to pursue experiences, which is, likely, never occurring. It would be necessary to partially obfuscate recollection in order to perfect one's understanding for the duration of the experience but an incremental amount would remain each time a cognitive improvement manifests until one undergoes an unimaginable transformation of one's proverbial soul, ie. holistic awareness. It's a cosmic hologame and all will win one day.

Look into OBE's, NDE's, astral projection, if any of those are actually real and don't just entirely take place in the mind then survival of consciousness is possible, it would be like the crossing of a threshold.

>no /x/ crap please
Look into them anyways.

You aren't that unique.

In the big scheme of things you're pretty identical to every other human.

What helped me get over my last existential crisis, believe it or not. Was playing Dark Souls and completing it. I don't think I've ever played a game that so well en captured what it feels like feeling trapped in your own flesh, surrounded by an insane world you've somehow gotten used to without understanding how any of it works.

I didn't imply that I'm the first, I just said that each one of my "self"s are pretty isolated from each other. Theres no continuity that implies that my current "self" reappearing like 1000 years from now is the same as the current me being reborn. Its just a new instance of me, the current me will be dead forever.

Your statement makes me feel that IF there’s something resembling a soul in humans, different people are on different stages of their journey. Because some people dread oblivion and some people unironically wait patiently for it.

Not OP here. I think even in your reductionist and dreary view on personalities, there’s still archetypes of humans that people internalize and emulate.

there's an infinite loop here.

1: I'm sad because i will die one day.

2: Now that i'm sad, i'm not scared of death.

3: now that i'm not scared of death, i'm happy

4: now that i'm happy, i'm scared of death

5: goto 1

so, would you rather be depressed and ready for life to be over with? or be happy but scared of it ending by dying?

Your ego does not exist. You fo not exist. We do not exist. Nothing exists s d therefore emotion and death are both invalid. Death will prove to be the end of this illusion of self, bring and existing forever. It's all much more complicated than we can possibly begin to understand, but when we die, it won't matter anymore. Study math, science, philosophy. Become the ultimate homo-sapien and then die.
