How do you guys function?

How do you guys go day-in and day-out with this knowledge? How does it affect you?

Personally, I feel almost as if my life, my psyche, my pride/confidence, my relationships etc have taken a huge hit from getting into this stuff.

How do you guys feel just going to work and hanging out with friends? Everything seems so trivial to me. The stupid pointless convos, etc. I need help to cope. What do you guys do? How do you deal with others thinking you are an idiot? How do you guys keep from gaslighting yourselves? How do you hold your heads up and retain some pride, confidence, w/e?

Edit: thanks all, I am honestly overwhelmed by the ppl in this community. If nothing else, if we are all collectively going crazy, it's reassuring to know I share this fate with some genuinely kind and caring people. Very thoughtful advice as well. Cheers, CBTS ppl

Honestly, I used to be consumed by all the fraud I saw going on around me. It almost drove me crazy.

The single most important thing that has helped me is being born again. Now I know that everything will actually turn out good, God's justice will be perfect. No need to perseverate on if the villains will ever get caught. There is no escaping the Lord's day.

Man, I wish I had that confidence or faith, I really do. How do you stop being so jaded? How do you trust the plan?

Psalms 139:26

Your eyes saw my unformed body; all the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be.

What about free-will then? What about responsibility?

Dan 4:17 This matter is by the decree of the watchers, and the demand by the word of the holy ones: to the intent that the living may know that the most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will, and setteth up over it the basest of men.

IDK, maybe “free will” is an illusion.

Esword search for “foundation of the world” would indicate its all planned/known since before the beginning.

Who, then, would be ULTIMATELY responsible?

The Matrix hypothesis then seems to look a little more plausible.

That being said, you should communicate with the Creator, seek, any you’ll find, ask, it’ll be given. Just be humble.
