So whenever I used to not know something, and it could be everything, I would turn to other people for advice. And if there wasn't an answer, I would turn to the internet. And I noticed that a lot of my beliefs about the world come from the outside. Also in part it was books. But it was often like, "Alright, so I have this really specific problem, I just need a quick info on how to do it."

And of course on forums there's malicious people, so I built a lot of malicious and disempowering beliefs into my psyche at those places where I had the questions.

So I have a question, there's basically an opening in my mind to take in the answer, I turn to the internet, or to other people, or to books even, and they gave me limiting beliefs and I built them into my brain.

And up to this day I have a hard time figuring out the truth from lies. I know when people are lying, I know when something is off, but I cannot really pinpoint what it is.

And by the way, if you are hinting at autism and whatever, this is not helpful. Not for me, not for you, not for anybody.

The question is if you can relate. And what you did yourself, if you can or could relate, to get out of this. And only speak from experience, I don't want some "ten rules on how to do whatever" by some guru, but I want your real experience, how you handled this, how you got out of it, and how you started trusting your own opinion more, or how you found truth outside that made you so secure in a solution for problem or gave you a lot of answers at once like an avalanche.

Just in general, what is your source for answers?

PS: Currently AI fills this void for me. It's much better than internet trolls but it's still biased.
