I don’t understand my own head.

0

I just feel so indifferent. I hate it. I. Hate. It. It’s like I’m empty. I try to think of my opinion on things and I just… it’s nothing. I get nothing. It’s like I can’t articulate my own thoughts and my own opinions. I hate myself.

Try creating or finding your own opinion.

By creating, I mean trying to reach a conclusion about something you're thinking about.

You can do that by asking yourself every question you can think of. What's my favorite color? What kind of music I enjoy more, and why? Why are some people evil? How can someone feel sad after watching an awesome movie? What makes a movie awesome? What is right and what is wrong?

You can ask superficial or deep questions, and just by trying to answer them you manage to get a lot of information about a lot of things.

By finding, I mean researching something, usually to get more information to reach a conclusion, or to see someone else's viewpoint.
This can be done by reading, listening, touching, talking, basically anything that you makes you absorb information.
You can read an article about health and say "Hm, I agree with that", and that's you just getting yourself a new, fresh opinion, based on someone else's.

It's not as easy as it seems, it takes work. But it is rewarding. By the end of each questioning, you build a bit of your own identity.


PS.: I'm not really sure this is your main issue, so forgive me if I said something unrelated to your issue.
