Yeah, a lot of people just have coping mechanisms, and they're not like bad for you, necessarily. And for me, you know, I like to do certain things to distract myself, and they might be a result, or me being a product of my environment, which could also be a good or a bad thing, depending where placed, what other new environment that I'm possibly engaged in. But it's like, also, you're aware of this. It means you're self aware. Like some kind of lucid dream state, this thing called reality. Or you could just follow your ego, your false perception of self, with delusions of grandeur, and make rash decisions while you project your insecurities on others. Pretty much every fucking American president, administration, or anybody with power in government.
