This will likely fall on deaf ears, ‘cause this sort of advice didn’t work for me when I was in your position. But please, trust, I have been in your position. I am substantially better off now, but not because I’m unfeeling - because I have found good people to surround myself with and become less shy about sharing my feelings with them. The best apathy you can nurture is the kind where you can accept who you are and what you’re feeling without caring what others think about it.

You wanna be like the guys who blow up at the smallest shit because they didn’t develop a healthy coping mechanism? Just go through the emotion

Don’t turn off your emotions, you’re only human. just how you handle and cope with them matters. learn coping mechanisms i promise it’ll make a huge difference

Yeah, caring about everything all the time sounds way healthier. In all honesty though, we don’t know what homeboy is going through, maybe apathy is what he needs right now.

You can’t escape yourself, and you’ll only get hurt trying. Make peace with yourself, and peace will come to you

Hm yeah that’s definitely what I said Dawg what I just told him to go through his emotions and basically don’t let it build up to the point where he can’t emotionally regulate at all
