@mistermircea how do you stop thinking of yourself when you've been doing it habitually your whole life?
What do you think about everyday?

Do this for a few minutes and gradually do it more. You'll experience existence beyond the mind and then you won't be so attached to it.
-
Think of anything that relates to the idea of "I" as a ball and chain and observe how it pops up constantly. And simply let it go.
-
Still don't understand what things relate to 'I'! Things like emotions, loneliness, etc?
-
The mind creates a self whenever it relates any experience to 'I' 'me' or 'mine'. There is no permanent 'I' only a process of identification
-
Now you are lonely, tomorrow not. The mind posts an experiencer separate from the experience but if you observe it you won't find him.
-
So whenever I feel lonely or insecure, just think of the ball and chain metaphor?
-
You must be pretty young? No, I wouldn't suggest that in this case. Human connection is what you need.

Do something about that loneliness and insecurity. We're all in the same boat here. Trying to figure it out.
