Psychological Problems: Get Over It

There's an old saying that says (I'll paraphrase) when looking for a girlfriend/boyfriend, it's not a matter of finding somebody who doesn't have a psychological problem - it's a matter of finding one that you can stand. I'm not sure if that's really an old saying, or maybe I just made it up. But the point remains - there are so many people with psychological issues that sometimes it seems like there's nobody without them.


But what is it about people with psychological issues? Doesn't it bother you when you see somebody making decisions from a reactionary stance - IRRATIONALLY? I'd say there are few things in this world that bother me more than seeing somebody be irrational. Very few things. And I bitch about EVERYTHING. So, yeah, do the math.

Now, everybody gets in a bad mood sometimes. It's not unusual to get cranky when you're tired, or have low blood sugar and what-not. But I'm talking about somebody who makes decisions on a regular basis based on a skewed reality.

When trying to function rationally in life, one might take what he/she believes to be an absolute and apply logic to it in order to deduce whether the decision he/she is making is rational. But what happens when what he/she believes to be an absolute constant in society is actually very skewed from reality? Or what if their ability to logicize is skewed? Then the results are skewed, and what you have is somebody with a psychological problem, running a muck in his/her life, and denying the whole thing.

Of course here comes the part where I don't give a crap. What's wrong? Abused as a child? Parents were screwed up? Witnessed a murder? Killed a man? I JUST DON'T CARE.

Next time you're making a decision, stop for a second, think to yourself, does this make sense? Having trouble figuring out if something makes sense? Ask somebody. You don't have to agree with them, but get some perspective. Nothing fights psychological problems like perspective. In fact - from my perspective, I can see ALL your problems. They're petty, stupid, and it's time to move on.

Ultimately, my goal is not to better the human race by eliminating psychological problems. No. My goal is to get stupid people to get out of my face. Because while some people might label it a "condition" or a "problem" that can be overcome, I see it in a much clearer light. If you cannot utilize logic to come to realistic and rational decisions in life, then you lack basic skills that would allow you to contribute to society. As far as I'm concerned, whether it's because you've got a psychological problem or you're just plain stupid, the net effect is the same and either way you just shouldn't go outside.

Oh and do the rest of us a favor and stay out of the dating world too.

"The only problem I have with this article is that there are some conditions that are chemical imbalances, but even then, people just need to take the medicine prescribed to get over it."

"people tried to get me to correct my chemical imbalances with certaindrugs but i just can't do it... im not really one for taking a supplement on a daily basis in order to distort my perception of the world... yeah maybe i bitch a little here and there but i don't want to be able to watch my cat get hit by a car and grin and be like "oh yes that looks like it hurt, what a pity, well back to my cocoa" .... there have been times where i have been on the verge of wanting to take happy pills but i still haven't... its kinda bullshit to me... the only thing that really stops someone from being happy is themselves... maybe there are a few exceptions but all and allsubject B(someone else) cannot be blamed for your unhappiness, yes they may be a douchebag and should be stabbed with a broken bottle in the throat and bleed to death slowly... but still "
