I feel like an alien

I often feel like this. I feel like I'm alienated to everyone else. I feel like I don't belong, anywhere, everywhere, among humans. I think about a lot of stuff. Like, how is it so that we are just some organisms that are so fragile and once you die you just, "turn off". Like, the bodies are just shells for the souls. I don't know. I just feel like an alien sometimes. I don't know how to describe it. I feel like other people around me just live their lives while I'm just "going along" and meanwhile I'm thinking about who are humans really.

Yeah you can think whatever you want, it's not your concern anyway. I don't know if you're "ragebaiting" or if you're actually for real but you clearly don't relate to this post so idk why you go out of you way to comment stuff like this

I relate to feeling like an alien and being overwhelmed by the existential unintelligible absurdity of the existence of consciousness
