Don't deconstruct or whatever. There is immense joy in setting standards for yourself and living up to them. Not the joy of victory or acquisition, but of serenity and being fully OK in any moment.

I can't really see that point; but I'm not totally sure why I'm convinced about doing this. I may think my life would be easier without some obstacles and doing things that in any other way, I would feel guilty of.

the rules of moral codes are generic.

for instance 'thou shalt not kill'. but there are plenty of laws and even instances in the bible that say it is okay to kill in sthat circumstance.

and realistically it is. you dont deconstruct morality. you simply live by the following
>do your best to enjoy life without hurting others. Take everything that happens case by case.

since I applied morals to myself I have only been getting unhappier year after year

it's not even hard holding them up, it's easy as shit, makes you wonder why people do so much messed up stuff like cheating
it's literally super easy not to

but it's hard having a working moral code and taking things seriously
I used to laugh about everything, now I am just depressed, because I can't not take things seriously anymore

May you be a psycho? Because I just feel bad almost doing anything, I don't find it easy at all...

I had that as a kid, my mom told me it's a sign of weak character to feel remorse so I kind of abandoned it

and then I was a major asshole, who bullied other kids and hit girls, got in fights etc

when I was 16 I kind of changed a lot, because I noticed I didn't have any real friends I read a lot about morals and set up some boundaries in my life

but since then, I don't know my life is going great but I feel depressed about everything, I never used to feel sadness until I was like 17-18
But since then it only gets worse

I don't know if anyone but me has this problem though

People who do "bad" things often don't realise they're being bad because they have a predetermined hierarchy of morals.

For example, Hitler was able to bring himself to be responsible for the death of a bunch of Jews and other people because he believed their lives were nothing compared to the greater good of his nation.

If Hitler could rationalise a way to murder lots of people, so can you about cheating.

Most people I know that cheat, have a different perspective of life than me. I would never deliberately cheat or betray anyone because the satisfaction I'd get by doing it would be, in the long run, lesser than the suffering I'd cause to the cheated/betrayed. (I base some of my life's choices on the principle of Utilitarianism). Although, the perspective of a cheater towards life is more of a YOLO kind of thing and «what you don't know won't hurt you».

In my experience, the dumber and the more ignorant you are the easier it is to give in to imorality. But what do I know...
