I'm 30 y.o. now. What is the best game to play on the end of my life?

Do something that requires a reasonable amount of dedication

>learn a language
>hit the gym and actually achieve something awesome
>take up music or art and git gud through lots of practice

It should only take you like 2-5 years to reach a respectable level of any of those things, yet normalfags always "wish" they could do those things. So fuck 'em and go do them. Literally all you've gotta do is, it, every day.

Only difference between being 0% good and being 100% good is how much time you put into it. Talent is a meme. Age is a meme. You can do whatever the fuck you want as long as you're willing to put the time towards it.

Stop playing video games, stop browsing Yea Forums, develop a skill

Ex convicts who spent all their twenties in jail somehow find a gf and get a career going. I'm lower than these scum because it's all about looks.

delusional boomer

Well I got fired for poor attending and remember being depressed working. It was a boring no progressive kind of job that could easily have a robot programmed to do. In the few years I worked I never made friends and leaving felt good for a while. I convinced myself all I need is video games and shut the world off. I tried getting help but was always brushed off.

>get a career going
Lol no. Many go back to being criminals, the rest are doomed to a "career" of packing bags in a supermarket because most businesses don't want anything to do with an ex-con.

This to be honest. 30 is too late to start a new career, you'll be 10-15 years behind everyone else. If you didn't find what you want to do, you're fucked. It's still doable, but it's extra hard now and it will only get harder.

>Im depressed because nothing that would make me happy in life is simple
How about stop being an entitled millennial and start working hard and accepting that not many good things in life are gonna come easy and without any effort on your part

You can live from art I guess, if it's applied to something practical like making textures for vidya, you can live doing that.

I'm an artist, also learn japanese on my own also gym and stuff. Still want to finish myself.

So no, it doesn't helps at all.

>artist, also learn japanese
Can you BE a more stereotypical NEET?

No, it's realism. If you spent all your 20s drifting here and there never holding onto anything, what are you going to do for work? are you going to start at the bottom of the ladder again? what are your prospects for dating, marrying, funding a family if that's what you're interested in? Are you going to start having kids at 40? be damn near 60 when they graduate? etc.

>30 is too late to start a new career

My dad started working as an electrical lineman when he was 45 years old and is still going strong 14 years later. The man absolutely loves his work and has been making tons of money and will be able to retire when he's 63. He regrets not doing it sooner, but there absolutely are careers you can pick up later on in life without too many issues.

It's you who delusional here. I was born in 88 and I can say that our generation is cursed. People born in those years would never be happy because they've seen the most depressing time of humankind. They would never be understood by anybody, even by people that were born in 95.

This world is not for us anymore.

Living with your parents is nothing to be ashamed of, user. At least you got a job.

You're me except I don't even play games anymore.

>most depressing time of humankind

LOL

>there absolutely are careers you can pick up later on in life
Sure and there are some you can't. If you're 40 and you're getting into a career for the first time you're competing with people who have been doing this job for 20 years longer than you. They have more skills and more connections, so why hire you?

>are you going to start at the bottom of the ladder again

thats usually how that works. sometimes you get lucky. you have to put in the effort at ANY age to get somewhere.

>what are your prospects for dating, marrying, funding a family if that's what you're interested in

Its annoying how much people on this site put so much emphasis on relationships. learn how to live with yourself before going after a 'relationship'.

Who is this grill?

I was also born in 88 and I think this is the best generation. We saw the world before the internet but young enough to adapt to the internet effortlessly. We saw the most exciting years of vidya and we're about to see the most exciting years of VR vidya, then we'll see the most exciting years of robotics. Holy shit did we get lucky, we'll experience it all.

How is death inevitable? Why do you believe in something that you have no proof will happen to you?

Okay, but for the people who do care about relationships, surely you can understand the dread that comes with getting older and still not being in a stable relationship. For women, there's the biological clock ticking because there's high risks that comes with pregnancy after around 30-35 and for men, well the dating pool gets smaller and smaller unless you're comfortable dating someone 10-15 years your junior. Also, it's a point mentioned in the first inspirational post ("get hitched with your soulmate") so it's not really going on a tangent. You could still feel young as ever at 30, be very healthy, have a good job, and so on but societal/parental pressure still exists.

The vast vast vast majority of jobs are not critical. Most jobs are in transport or service.

Here's my advice on death that I received when I was like 15. It stuck with me for years and honestly cured my existential dread. Here it is: you will never die while you're alive. Think about it. You will be dying while you're alive, but you can be dying and still have hope that you won't die. At no point will you actually go "oh, I'm dead". At that point you will not be alive to make the observation.

why do people live like this? i'm not saying that they should spend thousands of dollars on shiny useless crap but that place screams depression and stagnation

There’s fucking NOBODY in these careers

i'm still depressed faggot who thinks about suicide every day for the last 7 years
sex is a meme

Anything like care work, waste management, food picking, cleaners. Every time I see someone cleaning at a mall or hospital they're always old women and men.

Not everything is about sex, cum filled retard.

Probably because they are depressed and stagnated.

It's maternal age that matters.
Men produce new sperm constantly, whereas a woman only has as many ovum as divided during maturity. The older they get, the shittier they get, and then you end up with something like a 10% chance at Down Syndrome at age 40. Autistic? Your mother was probably older than she should have been when she had you.

What a shame, they'll have to offer better pay, education and lower the absurd entry requirements. Think of the poor corporations!

The quality of a man's sperm is at its best from 18 to 25.

Because that old shit is history and they love their family that bought that old shit. It reminds them of that family they love. Zoomies wouldn't understand

>i'm not saying that they should spend thousands of dollars on shiny useless crap
That's good because even lackluster, functional crap still costs thousands of dollars. That might be the barrier, as a matter of fact.

I can sort of relate but its really unhealthy to be stressing about it that much. people can sense desperation and its not attractive.

are you dumb? teens working summer jobs is a stepping stone to building good work ethic you moron. some dont take it seriously but the fact that they are putting in the effort says alot.

tbqh the only generation that moved past the "living with your parents" phase were boomers because they lived in the greatest economic boom seen in history.

We just went back to what it has always been once that passed, the rest are on you though m8

Actual Sunlight if yo do not manage to follow this anons advice

I'd consider 40 the upper limit to have kids, older than that and you're just going to be a burden later in life for them and that's selfish. So at 30 you have 7-9 years to get married and have kids if you want 2 or 3 and that's presumably with "the one", so you should have known the girl for like 3-4 years at least. Doesnt leave you with much time.

That doesn’t mean anything. They all work bullshit easy jobs like stocking shelves or selling clothes. Nobody wants to do any work that matters

>Its annoying how much people on this site put so much emphasis on relationships. learn how to live with yourself before going after a 'relationship'.
>on this incel centric site known as 4channel
this site is like the only one site where that isnt true

My parents bought a 3 bedroom house in the 70s by the time they were 23. They now expect me to somehow live in my own place at 30 despite how housing demand is higher than ever.

Hey man, everyone dies. It’s not like everyone who passes, even if they’re relatively young, regrets having lived before they go. I knew someone who had terminal lung cancer and died at 26, yet he lived his heart out to the end, finished a lot of stuff on his wishlists of things to do, and died happy surrounded by the friends he loved. You can hardly get existential about that.

The goal isnt to not die, its to make living worth it. If all you’re doing is wasting days regretting not having done more, then change your life and fulfill some meaning. You dont need to change the world dramatically or anything either. Just set small meaningful goals and meet them, and if you’re open to the possibility, you’ll start feeling like life isnt just meaningless existential angst after all. Existential dread comes from feeling like life is meaningless, but dont fall into the trap of thinking death invalidates or erases the life you’ve lived.

this, most people waste their 20s on frivolous, useless crap anyway, 30 is usually when you really start to get your shit figured out and lay down a good foundation for your later life

you have depression because you don't have any positive interactions with other human beings
going to gym alone, getting a dead end menial job, teaching yourself languages online etc will do nothing at all to fix your depression
best thing you could do is take up a hobby or go to some kind of classes/workshops that involves actually talking with other people and then pretty much just speak with as many people as you can
even if you are a massive autismo sperglord like me you will end up clicking with at least some of those people and developing a bit of rapport with them
doing this will then make you feel more happy and confident to talk to even more people and you just slowly snowball upwards from there until you have fun hobbies and a circle of good friends to enjoy them with

It's not healthy. I worked with old people and time and time again I took care of old ladies whose husbands had died and they just never moved on. Same chairs, curtains, wallpaper, sofa same photos on the wall. I'm not saying burn it down but living in the same shit you've been living in (with someone you love) for 60 years and suddenly they're gone no wonder you're depressed every day. You don't move on in your mind and you don't move on in your surroundings either. The two things that helped my grandma the most after grandpa died was 1. Meeting people. 2. Moving to a different apartment and getting rid of a lot of old stuff. Medicine and excercise helped but those first two were the big ones.

Nah, I've been a shut in for 5 years now and I've only been depressed once in my life ironically when I wasn't a shut in.

You know the great thing about suicide? It's like the ultimate release. You're a neet with no future? It's okay once you die that'll all disappear. You're a wagey thats fed up spending all your free time making someone else richer? Well just suicide and you'll never need to worry about working ever again. Worried you're ugly and you'll never find a gf? Well just commit suicide and those worries will disappear! And the most important one of all. Once you commit suicide you'll never have to wake up feeling tired ever again. You'll be free of that tired feeling forever.

Really life just blows but suicide seems like the best option as it'll just make all your negative emotions go away. It isn't worth having to deal with the weight of negative emotions for those short moments of happiness. Even when you do find that short moment of happiness eventually it'll just disappear because nothing in life is permanent.

I personally don't know a single person who went bald, but yes, higher T does lead to baldness and estrogen can help you keep it. Hell some freaks even recommend pink pills so you don't lose your hair.

This is the worst fucking meme.

Why does everything have to be "meaningful" or something you can live from?

"what can you do with (skill)" is just a bullshit passive-aggressive tactic used by boomers to discourage anyone from doing the shit they want to do.

Just do what you want and accept that some people get more opportunities with fewer skills, while others are good at everything and yet have fucking nothing.

Life sucks, just have a decent time while you're here and it'll all be OK

Take antidepressants dude.

suicide would be an option then

The salary of those jobs will then increase, then more people will go to these jobs, then balance restore. "I fear for the future of humanity" based on a conjecture of an projection of a bias, sure thing, buddy.

Trade jobs are already DESPERATE for new blood to teach as most of them are old and already past normal retirement. It's going to get much worse in the coming years. They don't give a shit how old you are so long as you can work.

Get a certification or two, maybe learn the basics and people will be beating down the door to hire you. Hell some especially desperate places might take apprenticeships with 0 experience if you'll work hard.

Or join the military. 30 isn't too old. The opportunities are there but you have to put in the work and face time. You can't get them behind a screen.

>I can guarantee you have some form of depression
I've lived with parents, friends and gf and now I live alone and to me there's barely any difference. Don't project, user.

Same, but sex is like lifting, it's not a miracle remedy, it's just another dimension that should be fulfilled and help once it is. But life is complicated and you need a million thing right to be at peace, it is an endless struggle for stability and meaning.

what if you've been hiding mental illness for 24 or so years because you saw your older brother and mother both get institutionalized as a child, so not only did you hide your mental pain and anguish and severe difficulties with normal things, but the 'normal' you crafted for yourself meant that any praise and such was for this fake person you were trying to present to others in fear of men in white coming to take your freedom away and lock you up forever
so essentially you've never been given a compliment you believed, never felt pride, never looked up to anyone, and can't connect with anyone on an emotional level because you're broken upstairs but have still tried your hardest to be a good person and nice but slowly fucked up all your friendly relationships because you have no real idea how to be a long-lasting friend on account of all the other shit
can you still play that game then

Have you considered the possibility that some people are just not made to mesh well with others, and no matter of self-effort or self-confidence is going to fix that? Also let's assume this is true for a moment, even if you were going to be more outgoing, find a hobby, meet new people/friends, they all have their lives already and are most likely very busy if they're similarly 30+. This isn't high school and you can no longer casually insert yourself into a group of friends because you meet them on a regular basis at the same place.

the main reason people don't actually commit suicide as often as they think about it is because the actual mechanics are risky as fuck, for example firearms usually being around 90% successful over the years. so do you want to roll the 1/10 chance that you'll end up a crippled sack of suffering ever worse off than you are now? and those are the good odds.

>just do x/y/z bro, it's guaranteed death

it's not, there are always all kinds of problems with this shit, it's a rabbit hole that you really gotta explore to understand the suicidal mind. I'm not going to kill myself these days but I would have years ago and a big thing people ignore is that there are A LOT of people who aren't just little emotionally waffling fags about death, many do wish to die without any hesitation or sadness but death is harder than you think

It's so sad. My 60yo uncle outperforms 20yo fit guys at bricklaying. Many try it for a week and never show up again.

>you need a million thing right to be at peace
That's what people trying to sell you a million things want you to think. Only thing you really need is to be left alone, then it's up to you and your brain.

Definitely hop on finasteride as soon as possible. You can get an online prescription from medicalwellnesscenter easily, and it's cheaper than going to a dermatologist.

>Trade jobs are already DESPERATE for new blood to teach
They are desperate for new blood who're already taught the basics. Employing a person without any knowledge and training them is expensive; not to mention a big gamble because either they aren't actually fit for the job or they'll leave for a different job the second they've got enough experience.

Also suicide is a permanent solution to what may be a temporary problem.
There's nothing wrong with killing yourself, I just think the wrong people do it.

Suicide is admitting defeat, and an easy solution to a complex problem, but an incomplete one at that. Life shouldnt have existed at all is a compelling argument when yours is tinted is so much suffering that it becomes unbearable, but the thing is that you can experience such wonders in life if you're lucky enough that the same suggestion that such an experience exists either fully or party in us or in other, is enough for most of us to go through its bullshit.

Pretty sure the reason most people don't do it is because they're pussies.

Unless you're able to trick yourself so hard that you can be at peace with nothing, but that is an herculean effort and chances are that you'll just become crazy.

You're living in a time where people are fighting over jobs, 3rd world people are immigrating for better lives much more than before. A time where companies don't hire you out of college if you don't have years of experience under your belt. Where women are expecting more and more out of a relationship. You're also not only fighting with immigrants, you're fighting with non-skilled diversity hires. Companies merging into bigger monolithic entities and sharing employee information with each other to 'avoid' employees they don't like.

>people DONT commit suicide because theyre pussies
I seem to remember a time when when your entire justification for suicide was being an absolute massive pussy about life being too hard and painful. Oh right, it was that giant detailed post you wrote just minutes ago. Suicide is way easier than accepting difficulty and overcoming challenges and making sacrifices and changing your mindset and enduring hardships, you absolute goddamn coward. You think you’re being some kind of intellectual writing out a huge ass argumentation when really you’re just whining and failing at what the majority of humanity continues to do: have a tough life and keep on living.

What if I don't have that meaning. Never had. Life is literally pointless to me.
And sure as fuck I don't give a shit about humanity because humans are terrible creatures.

Anons. I had sex with a girl and we talk everyday and she tells me that she loves me.

Is it okay for me to leave now? Can I turn my back on this place and go now?

Maybe he did, faggot?

This in a way. when you're 30 you still have plenty of time to reevaluate your life/hobbies/friends/partner/professional career

You just have to be honest to yourself and not be too much of a pussy to take a risk of doing what (think) you want to do

>Coping so hard you have to make up a new definition of happiness
It's over for you. You can keep lying to yourself thinking theres a higher sense of happiness but you're just the cuck that accepts it's okay his wife gets fucked by tyrone because it makes her happy and so you happy except not really because you're just coping.

Almost everyone takes finasteride orally. Also you don't know what you're talking about in regard to minoxidil.

I went to a dermatologist initially, it's not like they're going to do an examination to see if there's anything specifically wrong with you, they just looked as my receding hairline and asked some questions and that's it.

Since this is /ad/v/ should I work in clothes store or shoe store? I want the want with less talking.

The most successful person I know dropped out of high school in the 9th grade to become a diesel mechanic, and he got recruited by the mining industry.

They do. It's not a career you're starting first, it's TRAINING for that career. And yeah, there's a ton of people who started learning whatever they do now at 15. When it comes to vidya, every other artist and programmer started at 15. You'll never catch up to those people if you start at 30.

it is never to late to start something the problem in most cases is fear to do so

Actually, yeah. Better to finish it before you relationships come to the mediocre level.

Take the IT field most Yea Forums autists would be interested in, it's very possible for a 15 year-old to take interest in it, start programming small things and what not and eventually make a career out of it. Why would anyone hire (You) who's just starting on C++ for Dummies instead of the guy who's made it his craft for 15 years?

So I guess I could see this like I'll end up regretting my choice no matter what I do, or it could be that the only losing move is to not play.

>the other half says you should travel and experience the world in the way that's only possible in your 20's
This is factually untrue for our generation. Every single place in the world is massified and commercialized and the few that aren't require way too much money and planning, on top of everyone having some surface-level knowledge of most countries and le epic globalism that makes most cities feel the same.

Work and focus on your social life and hobbies, that'd be my recommendation.

How exactly do the "chemicals" make your follicles weaker? Arguably the biggest thing minox does for your hair is stimulate the blood vessels in your scalp which increases nutrient flow to your follicles. By any non-retarded metric that's strengthening them, not weakening them. The only reason you shed hair when you stop is because, as you said, the underlying condition still exists. No one said it was magic

you know jerking off and playing games is not so bad either

It's not that "there's still time", there's always time while you're still alive.. but you have to be reasonable with your goals each time you re-evaluate yourself. The more you age, the less opportunities present themselves, people your age are getting families and are less open to having newer friends than before. Sure, there's always luck, but let's be honest: part of why you didn't get your shit together like other people is because your happiness isn't defined by what other people thinks as successful.
You love your hobbies, and there's nothing wrong with that and you can continue to work your job and immerse yourself to that hobby as long as you want.. just don't expect to be some bigshot billionaire unless you're fucking lucky/at the right place at the right time.

what movie/show is this from?

What if she liked you back, and it was too difficult for her to keep being friends with you knowing you could never be together, so she deleted you because she felt like she needed to move on and not be tormented by that fact?

Nah, I backpacked across europe in my 20s and I'm not rich at all. It was fun and I do think I can never experience something like this now that in my 30s.

I'm 29 and like you

>All those psychologists doing nothing but shitposting here
Get back to work fags

>this, most people waste their 20s on frivolous, useless crap anyway
Most people don’t understand society has pushed for that.
We’re encouraged to go to college in our 20s, take out a shitload of debt, and waste time trying to find out our ideal career.
By the end of it people are almost 30, with crippling debt, and no set career path. I see a bunch of our younger retail workers in their 20s with meme degrees expecting to become millionaires before they hit 30.
No wonder there’s so much depression these days.

I'm 23 and still in my first year of college. Is there any hope for me? What should I start doing today to avoid ruining my future any further?

How are you on neetbux for nearly a decade? what's your made up disability?

i think the reason i didnt kill myself when i turned 30 was because i dont feel or look old.

theres always 31

This. I always believed the travel meme. Everything is basically the same thing painted differently, unless you're going to the super hard to get to places.

Travel really isnt worth it unless it's a MAJOR life goal to see something for whatever reason.

nice. I'll be 30 tomorrow. I'll be a wizard. Are you a wizard? Anyway right now I'm playing celeste, it's pretty good

PSA to all you gloom and doom NEETS:

Just because a job posting says they want someone who already has experience dosent mean they will ONLY hire someone with experience, especially an entry level position. You are weeding yourself out of the competition by not even applying. Also it's legal protection incase a minority sues for hiring discrimination they can just say "its not because your black, its because you didnt meet the required work experience"

Just regular old depression and anxiety. The UK benefits system is a joke desu I was supposed to have an appointment months ago but they regularly forget.

I will be turning 30 this month and my life is going nowhere. Hang in there guys!

I hope you can all be happy someday. it makes me sad knowing your all sad. I'm a jobless neet and I'm happy and you can all be happy too

The only reason I haven't is because I've been extensively planning it to cause maximum legal damage on the ones left behind.

You're not my generation, fuck off.

I would say any form of travelling that requires you to get on a plane, pay for a hotel, and keep you in big cities/tourist traps is an absolute waste of time and will not contribute to your personal growth as a human being.

Strapping on a backpack and walking down the road to see how far you can get? That changed my life.

It's all about how you make the experience happen.

My grandparents were like this. Super funny and cheery people but every single time they were facing a camera they'd go stone cold no-expression like they were having flashbacks from the postwar they grew up in.

keep it going, user! I'm proud of you :)

Where do you see a problem?

I think the thing that hurts me the most is that I've been relatively blessed - I was fairly spoiled despite being poor and having three brothers, and despite the entire student body of my Elementary School ostracizing me I eventually made a friend that 100% accepted me without fail and then quite a few more
I even got a gf(that I didn't want, but felt it was necessary) who ended up being a friend and eventually lost track of her too
this gf's dad was a Lawyer and I was in with his very rich and influential family - I had the possibility of massive, beneficial connections had I actually cared at all, but in the end I'd spent so much time trying to be normal and trying to hide my various physical tics, my stimming, my godawful voice, etc. that I realized I'd never even thought about my own future or dreams, just the future and 'dreams' of the fake person I continue to present to people
though I guess it's only going to get harder as I get older, because it's one thing to have a teenager with this nonsense, the older I get the less patience they'll have for someone like me

i have really good friends and parents so even though i may be failure sometimes i still have people i love around me

Well, that's a good reason to finish yourself.

Wait for the market to crash again and buy housing on the cheap.

The old classic.

I only suggest it because something similar happened to me. My best friend for years who became the girl I fell in love with, who’s always loved me intensely and wanted to meet with me IRL everyday of our friendship.... we were always separated by distance and she eventually cut off the friendship, blocking me on every device we used to communicate on. It puzzled me too. On the one hand, she told me she wasnt interested in staying friends anymore, but the real reason from all other evidence is that she felt so unbearably split by the love in our friendship that she had to move on, and it was painful for her to think about me everyday.

Yeah its dumb. It put me in torment and threw me under the bus, sure. But I know how much we loved each other and I still wait for a chance that she will change her mind. Its just, life is hard and people are dumb sometimes, nobody knows always what the right decision is to make. Sometimes people feel like they have to cut their losses and protect themselves before stress drives them insane, even if its not actually a reasonable or productive solution.

I'm not talking about myself, retard. I started my current career at 25 and I'm 5 years older than everyone who's my equal at my job. I work for people some of whom are younger than me. And that's just by starting at 25. If you start at 30 it's bound to be worse.

"Death, therefore, the most awful of evils, is nothing to us, seeing that, when we are, death is not come, and when death is come, we are not. It is nothing, then, either to the living or to the dead, for with the living it is not and the dead exist no longer."

I'll have a long time to stay dead.

All the pain I've experienced so far is nothing compared to the joys and pleasures I've had.

Choosing to live through pain for a modicum of happiness is worth it imo.

I can relate
Has anyone ever fixed sleeping problems? I have slept like 13 hours a night for over a decade. And i have multiple dreams a night

It's true though. Especially when it comes to artists. Most pros started learning at a very young age.

Stay in classes until you find a better way to start a career. Don't depend on college to help you start a career, it hasn't been good for that in decades.

Because humans are scientifically proven to be terrible at putting themselves on someone else's shoes. They assume that, since they themselves have no problem handling social events and if they were stuck at home they'd want their friends to drag them out to party, everyone else is also like that.

This is goddamn accurate.

You're vastly overestimating the time it take to train for whatever it is you want to do, vastly overestimating how serious those mythical 15y/o prodigies used to work, how sure they were about their career and life choices at the time, and how many of them even exist.
25y/o is when your brain fully develop, the long term planning part in particular. That's also when most people become absolutely certain of their life choices and that's including work. 30y/o is only 5 years after your brain become physically able to make the right lifelong decision. So no, it's not too late at 30 and if you're serious with a lot of discipline (something very, very few 15y/os have), you can catch up to a lot of people who casually became better at whatever it is they did for longer.

I'm an artist. I started at 27, 3 years later I surpassed some of the artists I looked up for more than 10 years.
So no you're wrong. It's all about your hard work and how much active training you're doing.

Van Gogh started at 27 year old.

You need to have a sleep schedule and follow it. That way your body and mind adapts. I used to sleep at different hours and for different durations and it fucks up my whole circadian rhythm. When I made myself follow a 12AM-6:30AM, it's a bit hard at first, but some time after, it feels natural and I don't feel tired or messed up at all.

I work night shift stocking shelves, which is part of the reason I still have problems sleeping. I work with mainly old and incompetent people, which really drags ones mood down.

Do I also need to B myself?

Have you tried cutting out caffeine, and any stimulants up like nicotine? I feel like as long as I'm not consuming soda or caffeine regularly I'd be able to do fine if I didn't have such a shitty work schedule. Though honestly I'm not even addicted to games at this point, I was up until about 8 months ago.

>adventure time cake
nah, probably a gigglesquee deviantard

it is bad advice defeatism did never helped anyone
while i agree that empty phrase are just that phrase you can and you should work to become better person there is enough material to help people who have low social skill to overcom it in most cases the main problem is motivation these people are not willing to change becouse it is scare them to do something with the situation as it may be uncomfortable

I still have no idea how to actually fix a sleeping schedule. Sometimes I'll take a nyquil and pass out, but I always wake up anywhere from 4-6am and am unable to fall back asleep. Doesn't help I often get bad stomachaches that last the whole night so if I do get on a decent schedule it only one stomachache for it to all be for nothing.

>>tfw reading school life manga makes me depressed
holy fuck are you me?

Thanks for the support dude. I know how it sounds but I’m convinced she’s just being young and stupid at this point, but that her love for me was genuine. I still love her, she was just so cute and innocent and beautiful and precious to give up on, and I have a feeling she’ll probably unblock me and apologize about everything someday, I dunno.

This is the only time she’s ever done something drastically selfish like this. She’s done so much over the years that shows she truly cares about me both as a best friend and someone who wanted me to marry her someday, that I have to see this as..... just life being tricky and people not knowing how to deal with things. That’s why my input to this thread is that, if women seem like they’re being weird and giving you cynical impressions, maybe things are coming more from a place of naivety and incompetence than malice. I forgive her already, and Im just waiting and hoping for her to come back.

Fuck you and all the other faggots thinking life is easy as fuck, it fucking ain't, "don't give up no matter how hard it gets" is the life advice equivalent of "just be yourself bro" with women.
You have no idea how hard shit can be , you don't have any idea about people's backgrounds or where they're coming from. Life is fucking hard for teh vast majority of the goddamn planet, what are you gonna say to the kid starving or the homeless man, "Just believe bro, a house and food is gonna happen shortly"

Nigga we're the first generation that will never die.

The world is a smaller place than ever and meeting new people easier than ever. There is also a very toxic though spreading through women of the whole "you can do better". Eventually that'll disappear once so many women end up alone. The old guard of women who pushed for such a life style are already regretting it and starting to talk about that.

its going to be great when the internet starts to fall apart because the literal boomers just kept hiring h1b street shitters to handle day to day maintenance and never let anyone rise to a position of power and authority and therefore actually learn how to take care of and replace our infrastructure in a meaningful way beyond basic maintenance. A bunch of cross ocean hops have already disappeared and arent getting replaced and nobody cares. Obviously, that applies to pretty much everything to. Going to be fun living in a dystopian shithole because an entire generation of faggots selfishly refused to let their children inherent their positions and one day we wake up and its basically like we are in africa with nothing but broken roads, collapsed bridges, and random power plants just spontaneously catching fire as people leave their old devices and machines in the street where they fail because nobody has any clue what so ever how to fix basic shit.

We're the first generation that will be less well-off than our forefathers.
The economy actually recovered really well from the GFC, but while the common man is still afflicted by hard times it's because the rich have pocketed all the wealth.

It's no different than people who want to become movie stars or musicians.

If you fail the form on the routine, that's a failed rep. You can keep doing it til you get it right, as in don't progress in weight. That's what those beginning training routine is for. Having a bar on your back is way better to feel out form. You don't have to put weights on the bar and can just get a feel for it with just an empty bar.

The mass amounts of dopamine released fucks up your brian, it means you need more dopamine to feel normal/happy, having your dopamine receptors fucked also takes your motivation away

It's pretty bad. Many of them refuse to retire, refuse to raise their children but will happily spoil their grand children (gotta sabotage their kid's kids), but controversially refuse to pass on wealth to any of their descendants while also REFUSING TO DIE because they got the best locked in health care rates back in the 50s-80s when health insurance was cheap as shit and instead try to prop up foreigners so they can pat themselves on the back and proudly demonstrate how not racist they are while living in their monocultural neighborhoods. It would be one thing if they at least betrayed us all to prop up black americans but no, it has to be some brown skinned foreigner because they are also the most covertly racists who hate blacks because they personally witnessed the chimpouts of the 60s 70s and 80s.

If I had to describe american baby boomers with one word, one word to encapsulate an entire generation of people it would be this: hypocrites.

Something tells you're not better than any of them. If you think you are, you're probably so bad you don't even understand how bad you are. Raita is a god, his level cannot be achieved in 3 years. If you don't understand this you're probably not even close to mastering art.

Yep. I live on a foreign country now.

I left out one of the more important parts in that post. I've gotten to the point where I dislike interacting with people for the most part, and I can barely carry on a conversation unless it's about a specific subject that I'm knowledgeable on. So even if I were to add you and try to be friends, it wouldn't really work out or be of any benefit to either of us anyways. This is probably my biggest problem since having positive relationships is probably the most important thing for someone, maybe second to having meaningful work.

Its my birthday today, I also turned 30. I wanted to turn things around actually start life get out of abject poverty. Find some sort of purpose and meaning. But I'm a jobless loser, no friends, no marketable skills, unattractive, unintelligent severe mental health issues schizotypal personality disorder, depression, anxiety. I don't want to say I have it because of connotation it carries of people false claims they have it but the symptoms are consistent with PTSD. 9 years ago there was accident that left me with permanent facial scaring and required major reconstructive surgery. If nothing else started working out last month lost 7 pounds, 20 more to my goal but its hard to stay motivated when progress seems slow it feels completely negligible. I don't want to go on anymore its too hard.

I only coom once a week and take all the vitamins I lack yet I'm "depressed", what gives?

I didn't say it would cure all your depressions
Just that jacking off and not getting the right vitamins can lead to an even deeper depression

Dear Esther

Just ignore society and start meeting people. That's different.

Also, yall need to stop fapping and use that energy to blast through your hobbies and jobs, most of men use waay too much energy on thots and delusional thinking about women, stop that shit right there and your life will improve little by little, you can still fap but just keep it one a week or some shit like that, but since you are all serotonine depleted you won't be able to exercise self control at all you fucking weak pussies, so cut it completely at first

Try zinc, magnesium, look there is a kind of depression which is entirely normal, it means you are aware that life is almost pure cope hope and it shouldn't be taken as seriously, the kind of depression that lets you drink a beer a day just to get loose, that's normal adult mindset, but if you have the kind of depression that makes you sleepy all day long and want to just eat junk food all day then it's because of energy levels and you can fix that through nofap, intermittent fasting, magnesium and zinc

I wasn't entirely serious when asking why. I know the reason is due to having no hobbies to kill time with, and I hate trying new stuff so I'll need to get real desperate before I do. Was just trying to say that your advice isn't some magical fix, in fact I doubt it would help even 1% of depressed people.

I guess, I could find something to distract myself with and at least try to enjoy today a bit.

It isn't a magical fix because there is nothing that gives you instant release or fixes you instantly, it's a long road trip where hope makes you stay along for the ride, it's not like chess where suddently you get the king, you just basically try to get more options while cutting the bad along the way little by little, it's long and tiresome, there is no tactical winning where you can just get the best outcome instantly, it's a long strategical position game where you need to get ready for the least expected times

Sometimes i completely give up, and let me go for some months, like real bad, i get isolated and run the booze like water, then unexpectedly a chance to improve my life comes and im so depressed that i can't even use it or i don't get as aware of it as i could be, and then i realize that if i didn't took that route months before i could have seized it and get new options later on, this kind of hope is what makes you keep the road but that hope is just lost on people who have got fucked too much through life, i lost that hope once both my parents got fucked in health and i could never recover it, just trying these days to keep some hope for the future but its hard, the things i have posted have helped though

If you're willing to, why not? This becomes a choice of

>I am willing to suffer and work to do something I like, even if I start off behind the curve.

Your lesson is literally the lesson of complacent impotency. "It's too late, just accept your sorry lot and mold over until you die". "Don't try and do change, you're doomed to failure". "Just settle". Not people dreaming of delusions of becoming a star athlete at 30 or a supermodel or an actor, but something as simple as a rewarding and fulfilling job.

There's no end of people who bounced back from drug or alcohol addiction in their 30s (or worse). Or who started a career later in life. Are they CEOs and movie stars and high-status businessmen? No, of course not. And they were never going to be one to begin with. 90% of the people were never going to be one to begin with. You were never going to be one to begin with. It's this false equivalence borne out of the usual "I'm a 19 year old hedgefund manager with a 6'6 Nordic blonde 12 year old girlfriend and 300k a month salary if you aren't at my level you are worthless" larping.

I kind of started getting worried i saw you posting about career prospects and shit. Im 26 and make like 27.55 an hour but hate my job. Im about to take a job doing the same thing at a university for like 22 an hour but the work life balance is much better, so are the benfits and just general stress levels. Ive been all worried how its going to affect my life, career and future but if youre doing hvac and feel comfortable its probably a sort of similar pay rate. Its not like i do anything with my money but save it anyway and the pay should climb back to where i was in time

Advice of the fallen.

>Help is only offered to the successful.
Seems more that it's only taken by the successful.

no nigger, being cynical is not a valid replacement for being smart

Shit advice. You pick someone up from the mud by getting dirty yourself too. Not by throwing flowers at him while the sun shines behind you.

This, I'm closer to my 30s than I am my 20s and holy fuck is life looking up; finally escaped my crazy and uncaring family, soved my suicidal depression, have been dating the same girl for over 4 years, we got our own apartment, finally doing the work I like, have a lot less of an aggressive desire to change the world and just sort of made peace with modern civilization the way it is.

There's a reason why the boomer in the meme seems kind of unrealistically upbeat, nostalgic, and happy with the little things, it's because adulthood makes you that way.

Sure life is essentially just being squeezed through a small tunnel until the rough edges are gone, and you essentially become numb to things that drove you to tears before, but in the end you find a way to make peace with things even when you have to be a little ignorant to get there. You dont hear from the people that didn't because they're the ones that ended up killing themselves, I've lost a dear friend to suicide and his reasoning was pretty sound, I just choose to aggressively turn myself away from that kind of thinking.
