Rationally, of course. You're free from something that undermines your clarity every waking moment of the day.

Rationally, of course. You're free from something that undermines your clarity every waking moment of the day.
- morpheos137 4y agoRationality doesn't work great because if you are unemotional why does option B seem more rational than option A? I think I am some kind of failed psychopath or schizoid. I am not violent or a criminal or even too much of a liar but I can't get my life together despite high intelligence. I move from one impulse to the next driven by weak emotions. Feels bad but can't seem to do much else. I have tried therapy and medication. Therapy didn't help. Medication helped a little but I always revert to the old pattern of procrastination.
- aintmeit 4y agoHonestly, option A sounds as good as option B. Either way, I'm feeling an even keel 7/10. Not a bad outcome for choosing to be rational. By the way, if you're neither violent, nor criminal, and only sometimes a liar, you're doing better than 90% of the population. Ninetieth percentile is nothing to scoff at. Unless, of course, this very statement of yours is you lying, in which case, you're not really in the club. Are you even as smart as you claim? If I were in the shoes of the person you describe, I wouldn't feel bad. So don't feel bad. Or do. I don't care.
- morpheos137 4y agoI don't feel bad. I don't care. I think most psychopaths are narcissists. I don't feel narcissistic. Therefore I guess I am schizoid. To me the garden variety or even corporate psychopath seems more normal than myself.
