Not looking towards negativity - beta trait?

So today, one of my friends gave me shit that i am digging my head into sand, trying to hide from the world and being beta.

That is straight up projection, projection involves projecting undesirable feelings or emotions onto someone else, rather than admitting to or dealing with the unwanted feelings. So fuck your beta friend for doing that to you.I'm rarely reading news nor I'm watching them, we're 100% being fed psychological warfare, brainwashing and hysteria. So I'm constantly making an effort to unplug myself from the matrix, and I recommend you to do that too. Focus on yourself, love yourself and go towards improvement. You can do this champ. You can always count on us degenerates from TRP.

I don’t pay attention to that shit either, do whatever you want and if he keeps sending negative shit just block him

It can be if you refuse to acknowledge reality. But not filling your brain with useless outrage is selecting what you fill your OWN mind with, which is alpha.

Your friend is right, but because you are shoving all your emotions down. You don't want to hear bad news because there would be one more emotion to shove. And when you suppress the emotion it tries to break free all day all night, it's always in the back of your head scratching. I feel for you, being depressed is horrible. At one time in my life I would give my arm just to feel happy for a week. What you need to do is face these emotions and observe, it scratches and hurts, good, try to see where the pain comes exactly, notice it and allow it. It will slowly disappear. Drop the antidepressants they dont help you. And run every couple days, it's great way to regulate your chemicals in your brain. If you are interested I can share the best guided meditation I have found, which would be great for you.

You might think I don't know what I am talking about, it's your choice to be ignorant, or you could try something else and see if its working for yourself.

Bro, one of the least beta traits is having your mindset. You became aware of an issue that makes you worse off, and you're making a choice to better yourself without hurting anyone else. There isn't anything wrong with focusing on things that improve your life and state of mind, and ignoring the people/things that detract.

The media preys on people's anxieties and fears .. fear-mongering all the way. By disconnecting and removing that stuff from your mindset, you're only going to help your depression issues. I do think there's some truth to the importance of accepting reality, but I don't think you would say these negative, depressing things don't exist, or that your don't care about any of those things. You just don't want to allow it all to negatively affect your life.

You're asking if you should avoid bad news that effects your mood negatively? Uh, yeah.

If seeing that someone getting killed in your city makes you go bonkers, fall back and watch cartoon returns all day.
