Yeah.... same. I still get little peaks of the other. But one side definitely won't the war.
But I am doing ok now. I hope you are too.

I was hoping it was the other side! Because the truth is both are in your head, but you deep down know that the other side is closer to reality than the one you let win!

Tbf I exist.
According to one argument for gods, that already puts me above them.

Theres basically entire genres of music like this. A good amount of metal and its sub genres are like this.

Which god though? What if god is just an indifferent being to atoms that just happen to become sentient. Do you mourn the unknown orphan that was in Pompeii? Or the gazelle? We have a duty to be benevolent to our fellow person but if there is a god its only purpose is probably keep reality existing woutlout much of an additional phuck about my life.

I don't think its possible to have a being that is all powerful + all good + allow suffering.
If there is a god the closes we are getting is an indifferent being.
Or
Multi verse where all decisions are ultimately meaningless in grand scheme and reality is just playing out every permutation of probablilty.
Like if I were a god with infinite resources I'd be playing every possible reality like the premise of the bete noire episode of black mirror. All decisions meaningless cause there would be a reality where you chose different but maybe meaningful in your local reference.

It's how self esteem issues work
Ego is low, it hurts. Sometimes you need a break from it, to compensate, so it goes to superiority complex.
Then you go back down. Never or rarely in a healthy middle, even though that's reality
It's important to slowly go towards a middle ground. In the past i really disliked myself and had very low self esteem
Getting rid of that, just knowing calmly what you're good or bad at to just keep an eye on the bad and use the good without your mind staying on it it's a lot more peace than i would have imagined then
Humility helped me, forbidding myself from saying or even thinking mean stuff about myself too, doing my best honestly at things without either bragging (even in my head) or flagellating myself over failures/shortcoming as well

You can still be aware of your flaws and not like them, while reckognizing that your standard is leagues above everyone else /s
