Ryoposting #2: WWRD?
I'm having a hard time recently. I think that's evident just from the fact that I'm posting these rants on here! Something that helped me recently is just being a bit more delusional. I think that's kinda the only way to survive in our current state of the world. Delusional optimism will save us all!
Unfortunately I'm too rational of a person to go completely delulu, so instead, whenever I get stressed and worried I think: WWRD? (What Would Ryo Do?)
Before my exam? Ryo wouldn't care about how well he did in an exam, Ryo doesn't need external validation! He has more important things to care about, like impending doom, fuzzy red ball demons and his demin best friend!
Talking to someone new? Ryo wouldn't be shy talking to someone new, Ryo says what he thinks and doesn't care what someone else thinks about him.
Existential dread over the current global climate? Ryo knows what that feels like! But he still takes time to drive fast cars, blast demons and party. The fall of society is no reason to stop having fun!
Basically I'm acting like a kid again. But people say when you are having a hard time those methods that comforted you as a child are what you'll fall back on. Of course I'm obsessing over a fictional franchise again, of course I'm drawing again and playing video games. Anything to help me escape a little. I thought I'd grow out of these things, but I guess there is no definite moment that I'll be a "grown up".
