How do I make myself realise that my life isn't significant and it does not matter if I'm going to CBT?

[Spitfire]

Language with syntax in humans gives rise to higher-order consciousness allowing its possessor to be conscious of being conscious. What?

So... can another, higher-order (or even highest-order) consciousness have given rise to the higher-order consciousness that allowed the processor to be conscious of being conscious, and would they all be the same thing?

Or, can consciousness be explained in terms of biologically available evidence based facts scientifically?

It is ridiculous! Lol! Do not mind me. I was just rambling for some unknown reason?

Hope this helps?

I can share some personal experience, maybe it can be helpful for you.

I turned vegetarian two years ago, but when i think how many animals were killed and tortured through my whole life just for the purpose of questionable consumption pleasure, then my own death seems to be something very trivial for me as well.

(I assume that, as Mr. Darwin said, we are all distant relatives, and that, as Peter Singer said, anthropocentric attitude results only from our species' chauvinism).

Yes, it does make me sick how anthropocentric humans are, and religion only makes it worse by giving the false belief we are above the animal world.

I'm vegetarian too! Good outlook.

We're just animals ultimately. We're bundles of stuff moving about, and yeah we can have our feelings and care about things, but there is no greater meaning beyond that and when you stop caring life is pointless.

Watch the brain by Dr David Eagleman, it might dispel a lot of these idiotic ideas about tunnels of light and what "they" say.

There is no colour, no smell, the world you live in is completely different to the illusion your brain constructs.

Watching it now, it is interesting.

It is really interesting, the world is nothing like we imagine it to be.
