Do you practice either (or both)? I got into Stoicism a few years ago, but I felt like it was not complete enough. I'm currently learning about Buddhism, and I find there is a lot of overlap between the two philosophies.

I don't know if I'd call it practicing it, but I've been interested in
buddhism for some time since college. I like the interconnectedness that
it, IMO shares with hinduism - being nice to each other helps us as
well, since we're all interconnected.

Tim Ferris, the podcaster, talks a lot about stoicism - check him out if
you haven't already. I downloaded Seneca's works after listening to him
talk about it.

I tried Stoicism once, but then I remembered I was a human being.
