Like life really IS being controlled by something? Sometimes it seems under my control, moving nice and slow. But there are times when it picks up and too many things happen at once to be a coincidence. It seems as if some supernatural force propels me. I'll try and explain better later. Discuss till then, maybe some of you understand my meaning.
-
No, I've never felt that way, though I've read that schizophrenics sometimes feel like they're being controlled by an external force.
-
Not controlled, more like guided or steered somedays in the direction I need to be going or to something I need to learn to help me move along in life.
I'm not much of a believer in coincidence, I think everything happens for a reason, even if that reason isn't clear until much, much later.
-
Yeah sort of like that. Its easy to deny things like that, but sometimes it just seems a bit too "guided" to ignore.
-
Nope. Never.
-
I am in complete control of my own life at all times.
-
I prefer to think I'm in control of my life, but I do seem to stumble onto streaks of luck or specific coincidences every now and again. Was just commenting on that last night, actually- how things sometimes seem to 'double' or come in multiples in my life, and silly things like how I halfway believe in streetlight phenomena even though I know it's prolly bullshit. It's prolly just an extremely low level of psychoticism on my part that serves to make life more interesting and amusing every now and again.

I better back off before more people start to notice :cthulhu:

The cowards and idiots oppress us! :tantrum: :arrr:

And the morons are everywhere.

This month has been horrible. Like someone planned it it all to hit at once.
I am actually looking forward to exams. Less stress.
-
My life is out of my control.

My life is out of my control.
Ditto.

My life is out of my control.
:( Sorry. Same here. I've learned to just sit back and enjoy the ride, wherever it takes me.
A few years back I did have these feelings of being. It's been touched on already, the depersonalisation and derealisation that many people with schizophrenia or some personality disorders have. But it was never like that. Just a doubting of reality. Feeling that I was put here to just follow this set journey and that no one around me was real. It was all a creation of god (not the God of Judeo-Christian theism or, indeed, any god of any religion). More a creator. Like Descartes deceiver perhaps?
