I don't know, I'm 24 years old and basically I haven't done anything but stay in my room. I'm usually on the computer and reading books, although lately I've let myself go and just been eating snacks and using Steam. Being flooded with strange thoughts, I've tried to write to you all, but the writings are even stranger. I also know I'm very slow because I'm contemplative, and in general, I find it hard to adapt to anything or do anything. I don't know how to do anything particularly well, and feeling like everything outside is such a rushed, chaotic, dangerous world… I don't know, it scares me. I feel worried about my future. Although I feel good walking in the woods, I don't even know why I'm writing this. I don't know, like many other things, I just wanted to write it, maybe with a hidden reason inside me. I haven't been feeling well lately, although it's been an interesting and incredible trip. I'm sleepy. Hugs to everyone, I love you all.

Thanks for the correction. For some reason I keep thinking that Biden (1942?) was born the same year as Clinton/Bush Jr/Trump (1946?), but I couldn't recall the exact year so I lazily specified "1940s" while forgetting that the generations are divided in that decade.

I'm lamenting the end of anonymity of the internet. It's been a slow burn but I'm really starting to feel it. I can't even read manga now on some websites before it stops you and forces you to make an account. Pirating is about dead, everyone just overpays for low quality trash. Even imageboards have some gay discord attached to them. I can't be apart of real society and now online cliques are taking over everything. I just want to enjoy something in peace.

I predict it'll come back once the AI bubble bursts and there's just no use for all the accumulated data on everyone. I think the business model of the internet, with free service given in exchange for personal data, will collapse. Things will decentralize back down to private servers or decentralized forums.

Already you're seeing Amazon's business model buckling under pressure now there's no easy money from the fed.

Would they? I've been thinking.

My mom is already LDAR'ing due to the debt and she's already lost one child, so I think either by suicide or stress she would die. My dad? He didn't seem to care that much when my stepbro died, but I am his firstborn. I don't know really. My little brother would probably just turn into me. That's my only concern. Everyone else, would cry for a day maybe.

I have a friend who would care I think.
Though not in a devastating way I believe since he has other friends too. I'm fine with that if it ever comes to that.
Mom might care too I guess, but likely in a relief kinda way.

I thought that at 44 years old this stuff wouldn't get at me anymore but I was wrong.

All those cute couples rollerblading. Young mothers pushing strollers and smiling. People laughing in the park. People playing soccer in the field. Everyone is so happy, so content with their lot in life. They are so well-adjusted to this life.

People talking in upbeat tones. Groups of people socializing, laughing, smiling.

Everywhere I went today it was like this.
Its amazing how easy life is when you are neurotypical. It's like everything falls into place without much struggle and effort. You are always pre-programmed to get the most out of life without having to do anything special to make it happen.

>Everyone is so happy, so content with their lot in life.

What i'm hearing is you're not happy with your lot in life.

Are you missing rollerblading or pushing a stroller, or are you missing something that it represents?

Cus something we have to remember is not comparing our happiness to others. We don't have to be well-adjusted to someone else's mold, and our happiness can be a different shape and size and still be enough.

This is just a small visible percentage of social reality that mainly consists of well thought out, intentionally demonstrated „personal well being and a competition of showing to others how great and awesome (your) life is“. This is not representative of truth, it is an aspect of one part of reality and it has some biological evolutionary functions and it is not a bad thing per se but it’s not necessary to live a good life. Have you grown up in a family? Have you witnessed neurotypicals being in a bad mood, angry, sad etc.? In my family there was so much dispute and troubles but I always was silent one, the person who witnessed all the problems but never took part in these interactions. But even in public sometimes you can witness the stress and dispute families and other gatherings go through, I'm glad to not be part of that. People in public normally make a good job of hiding all the suffering, the imperfections, the socially incompatible side of life. In fact you can find solace in the insight that you don’t have to pretend, don’t have to act as if everything is great, you don’t have waste an ounce of energy to participate in this showcase of socially acceptable behavior. Mind you, a sub-percentage of the displayed behavior actually is people being happy without having to pretend. But don’t think this is permanent or the usual case. Most normier suffer because they have been part of this percentage of social reality and only then know what it’s like missing that, the work you have to put in to keep it going, the fear of losing touch, the knowledge of how fragile and often times dishonest, artificial, superficial this whole thing is. We have none of those worries. So that’s nice.

Fuck spring/summer lately.
One day it's almost 30C the next it's 5-10C or lower and then back to hot.

Insane humidity swings and temperature swings are fucking with me physically.

What is everyones thoughts on leaving a suicide note? Is it necessary for closure for others? A way to get everything off your chest before you ack? Or just a waste of time?

I have been staring at my .60 cent retirement plan, and am not sure if I would just like to go out and just have everyone guessing. Or if its right to leave a note. Most of my family thinks I am useless or lazy. However they have no introspection on that they are the ones who raised me.

That greatly depends on who it's meant for. Closure is not something anyone is entitled to. It's better to just go no contact gradually. If anyone actually cared about your life, you could leave behind breadcrumbs, not necessarily anything big like a journal.

I'm pretty anti-suicide unless you are suffering physically.
I'd count that if you are being forced to work a physical job with a fucked body or homelessness is on the horizon, otherwise just don't do it.

On the note thing, I'd leave a note I think.
Something that absolves them of any responsibility because honestly I don't give a shit if I'm going out anyways.
I'm beyond hating them at my age.

Would you trade autism/trauma/neurodivergency/lifelong depression/emotional neglect/whatever else that makes you a visitor of this forum to physical disability?

like you wouldn't be socially and emotionally stunted but instead didnt have one leg? or you were deaf? or blind? would you take that instead?

My autism is quite mild, I'd happily double it to get rid of a similarly mild stomach/side pain I get.

Your question more leans into me paying for being a typical "normie"? Let's say I could become one. There is nothing I'd give for that lol. Maybe ignorant levels of motivation I'd consider a trade, but I have no desire to fit into society as a whole.

Ok i gonna give you some advice around hypnosis and mind (the thread of magick tech have some info books and etc around this)
>how its works?
Just imagine a kid waking up by her mom/father/tutor in the morning yelling out him with insults while maybe hit the kid, this kid will have the day ruined maybe with bad humour and negative ideas (imagine this everyday, of the childhood) and it will feel like a total piece of shit, the other personal thing of this kid doesnt matter for now but get the outcome.
now compare this to a kid waking up by her mom/father/tutor with a warm -good day, today is a good day!- in a soft loving tone voice while try to maybe hurry the kid a little or help the kid to wake up (or even try to wake up the kid with more time to not hurry you too much)

These two kids in the waking up (even adults) are incredible suggestionable, just imagine who of the two will have a more good outcome in the day, and even in the next day if the first phrases they listen when wake up and enter in the mind are like
-Wake up little piece of useless meat-shit asshole fuc…! hit and yell the kid*-
and
-Good morning, honey, kiss in the forehead while some family touch* its a warm day, wake up you need to go to prepare for school!-
You get it?

>Mind Hygiene

Try to no listen to sad music, sad pop music etc (lana del rey, billie eilish and etc)
Try to no listen to sad music before bed/before sleep/when wake up
Try to no listen to music that trigger rumiation or bad sad ideas, even before bed
Try to no listen sad music when you just wake up (you still can listen happy energy music)
Try to no rumiate before sleep or have bad sad ideas bacause maybe you can wake up with that idea in mind in the wake up and this maybe can ruin your next day
Try to no watch sad or deppresive things in media, or get straight out of the media and ignore it
Try to listen to happy energy music in some activies to make a constant trigger for you when you need it (the same sad trigger of music can be made with a happy trigger of energy happy music)
Try to NO have negative ideas or rumiation when you just wake up (next tip explain it why and how to use this in a positive way around hypnosis) and if you got into it, try to use a reality check technique later i mention

This book around Clinical hypnosis and CBT and the books of Michael D. Yapko are interesting, these have some good tips for self-hypnosis or methods for treatment for deppresion for lay people and therapists.
The Adam Eason book is still a good book for start.

Yapko focus is non-drug-based therapies in the treatment of depression, his focus is Process-Oriented Hypnosis for some problems.

The New Harbinger books have a lot of books around self-help method based in techniques around therapies like CBT, DBT, ACT etc if you want to investigate more techniques or skills training that have some scientific support that help.

No, its not just a worksheet like these for help during therapy session working, these books are like manuals with explanations of methods techniques and training in skills.

Thanks for the advice, I am keeping an eye out for those types of jobs. I just don't believe I'll ever be that lucky. When I was a kid my mother had to drive my dad to work and I'd be with them. It was often dark outside, there was a single booth with a guard inside with a cup of coffee and a book. He'd just say hello to my dad and let us through. His job was literally only letting people in, and just answering the phone if someone called in sick. Literally nothing as my dad later confirmed. I need that so badly.

Another ideal one would be the typical dark room with 20 monitors at the mall or something. Perhaps something more quiet though, that same room but at a muesuem at night time. All I'd have to do is a walk every hour or so. God. Can you imagine that? Boredom wouldn't exist as you can bring books and listen to things. I still get a little upset when I listen to any story detailing a job like this, it's often used in creepypasta stories about some lone security guard with a comfy job..

We get like 0.5% a year as a raise and corporate really pat themselves on the back for it. Then they don't hire people and run skeleton crews as it makes the paperwork look like they're better at running a business. The job needs 20 people, it's run on 1~5, maybe 7 on the busiest days of the year. All of us are stretched thin.

>>308261
They are well aware, they probably have thousands of applicants emails lol. This is why they can treat us like shit. My boomer dad sometimes tells me stories about how his workplace treated people. They used to get DOUBLE pay on ALL holidays and overtime, the day after/before holidays was also double time + an extra lieu day. Bonuses were handed out every month which was like 2 weeks pay. Every Christmas they had a raffle and gave shit away like BBQs, 500 dollar vouchers, and the main prize would be a brand new car.

He was an untrained factory worker in the 70s/80s.

Does anybody else live with family who have seemingly not a care in the world to be careful with your belongings?? It's incredibly annoying and often blood boiling. I have a lot of collections, and attempt to make models like tanks/planes/warhammer stuff and quite often my parents will "inspect" my room for whatever retarded reason and often break several items. I internally call my dad "The grabbler" he picks up delicate items with his full fist, all fingers perfectly alinged - like a special ed kid grabbing a pencil. As you can imagine, this often BREAKS anything even remotely fragile.

This has been an issue I've dealt with my entire life. I'd have my pokemon cards on a playing mat in my room, parents barge in and walk right on them despite them being able to walk around it, and I wasn't even in the way. Or other times where they would grab my school work with greasy/chocolate coated hands and get stains all over it. Also they love coughing and sneezing without any attempt to cover their mouths. You will see spit and mucus stains EVERYWHERE in the house. Especially on the shared computer screen, utterly disgusting.

I have tried everything to get them to be less dirty and more respectful and mindful but they just don't care, my mother is literally too stupid to understand, my father just doesn't care. I don't really want to move out either as it's not a possibility on my wages unless I want to live in a car or next to criminal social housing with even more disgusting people.

The list goes on and on about all the dirty behaviour they get up to. I might even jot down some greentext stories if I'm bored later

Already happened. This was just the recent one, it's typically my own parents breaking things. My dad especially. Let's say we have a rare playing card, he will pick up and scrunch it up in the process. Purposely bend it to "test it" and it will have HEAVY crinkles. He denies its worth anything. He will sneak into my room whilst im at work and inspect/damage my items. I have a lot of stuff sealed and hidden away because of this. I keep bait stuff out for him to meddle with. The worst part is he is just really that stupid, it's not even malicious. Stupid and ignorant, can't explain anything to him. You could show him how a card is selling for 1,000 dollars and he says its a lie and rips the card up to prove it (didn't happen just an example of what hes like).

Other than being quite dumb and extremely impulsive I don't think there's anything medically or psychologically wrong with him. Some people have no filter and respect of boundaries, he just acts. The kind of person that would blurt out loud in class "OH MY GOD DIDN'T WE HAVE HOMEWORK TO DO?" as the teacher had forgotten to check.
