Philosophically, What is the opposite of stoicism?

If you're proud of your stoicism, are you really a stoic?

Re-roll, I already don't

Perhaps melodramaism

Doesn't sound like you're that proud of your stoicism.

Have you never been unsure enough to remind without judgement?

I already don't do any of these except for occasionally reading fiction. If my grandparents were alive I'd probably ignore them though.

I don't know if stoicism is going to work for people who are so perturbable

An actual stoic wouldnt care about what others think or do.

There's no excuse for your autism at Saturnalia

Our entire culture is argumentative to a fault. If you were a vegetarian they'd eat smelly, copious amounts of beef in front of you, trying to get you to prove yourself wrong.

Let’s rollllll

I think you could have handled that better so you didn't look like you had some sort of mental issue

Nigger Chryssipus died laughing his ass off at a drunk donkey. Lighten up, you're practicing Stoicism wrong
>"The most certain sign of wisdom is cheerfulness." Not a stoic, but still

>The most certain sign of wisdom is cheerfulness
You were almost the first animeposter to convince me that animeposters could be saved. You didn't have to mention Montaigne, but you're doing him wrong by saying he's not at least an inheritor of the stoic school of thought. Great quote though.

>Chryssipus allegedly died of disdain for plebs

>Shoehorning philosophical schools of thought into everyday life

I've been guilty of this before. I found that "jus b urself" is actually unironically the best advice in those situations. If you start ruminating on philosophical considerations, it shows in your demeanor, you become a lot less confident and secure. Basically, don't turn to philosophy for self-help
