Don't give up on Stoicism

For some odd reason I decided I was going to slack on my studies, and within a week my anxiety came back, I became super afraid of death again, I argue pointlessly with people, and I forget whats in my control and whats not!

I am going back head deep into stoicism starting tomorrow- fear really is the mind killer. I haven't felt fear like this in 5 years and its all for whats always been there but I never cared for.

I use to hear people say they are self medicating with philosophy and thought , "how so?" little did I know that ive been doing that ever since I found marcus aurelius's book.

I wanted to stop because of a stupid reason not realizing that it has been keeping me together during all of life's difficulties.

Be strong guys and keep studying!
