Post here when you don't have enough to say for a topic and it's too depressing for the general crawl thread.

My grand plan was that once I ran out of distractions I would become productive but what happened instead is that I just feel even more depressed and lonely and have even less energy to do stuff than I did when I spent 16 hours a day on imageboards when they were still novel to me.

Normalfags really have it backwards. Productivity arises from mental wellness when they think it's the other way around. (In fact many normalfags truisms are like this, confusing cause and effect).

You can't force yourself to be productive. It's not a thing.

Difference between levels of suffering. If you have money you are inoculated against many of the demands and external stressors of the world. If you’re a fucked up retard who keeps getting fired from jobs from fucking up in constant mental stress, getting welfare significantly improves your life.
If your poor life is just mediocre life that is equal to sitting at home doing nothing with money then you’re a lucky person in this world.

As you get older as a wizard the problem of boredom becomes harder and harder to solve. I'm really banging my head against the wall trying to find anything to absorb my attention.

Can boredom be painful? Does any wizz know what I'm talking about? Like physically painful

Yes, I've complained about boredom a couple of times here. I'm 25 and I've gained so much weight as of recently, because when I'm bored I just eat a lot for the dopamine rush or smoke a cigarette. A pack a day. Sometimes I read a book, but it's hard for me to finish one, because I get bored halfway through. I don't like music. I don't like games. I used to like movies, but I feel like I've already seen all the great ones.

Life is pretty fucking boring overall.

I want so badly to take a needle or a knife or some sharp objects and stab them into various points of my skull and along the base of my neck. The pressure is driving me insane. Literally it's eroding my sanity
Years and years of it. In the last 15 years i can only recall a handful of occasions when the pressure went away. The relief is impossible to describe. Bliss beyond words.

I cant help but think if i put holes in my head then maybe the pressure will finally release, like air coming out of a ball.

And then theres my arms. I really want to slice off the skin there. Its also a thought ive had for years and years. This doesn't bother me nearly as much as the feeling of pressure behind my eyes, but its another strange thought that has persisted all these years. I know this is insane and of course if i did these things it probably will only cause me problems. But i cant stop wanting to do it anyways

Found my reddit account from 7 years ago and I was complaining about the same issues I do now and asking how to get started on things I never did start with in 7 years.

I legit have a several year long hole in my memory of what I did all this time because I have no milestones of any kind. I have to go through my computer and look at the timestamps of images I saved from browsing and bookmarks to get some idea of what I was doing all these years.

This is just scary how you can live continuously every day and suddenly you don't remember what you did a few years ago. Is it time to start journaling? I just hate the idea of having all my intimate thoughts in a place where someone could access them.

Another weekend alone in my room. 30 years old. Curtains drawn, no lights. This cannot be normal.
If only someone had pointed out to me when I was 16 that it wasn't normal. That maybe I could do better, and that I had something I could offer.

Being a wizard on a shit hole 3rd world country is more difficult because you don't have any support.

If you go to a hospital on the US or some other decent country and tell them that you're depressed or you want to kill yourself you may be able to get some help or even neetbux, if you do that on a shit hole they will laugh at you, they won't care or they will arrest you or something.

The thing is most wizards if they have to get a job, will get a wizard friendly job like being a night porter or a security guard.

I've lived with a guy that had been a NEETs for like 2-3 years and then became a night shift security guard. This guy was obese and didn't really look after himself, and his health really seemed to degrade upon getting that security job. His health went to shit, he started smoking weed all the time, he looked visibly stressed and tired all the time.

Of course over the years he somewhat came right because he was a normie with problems and eventually got a social job on a pig farm. But those wizard friendly jobs are psychologically not much different to NEETdom. You're not going to find meaning or motivation mopping floors at a hotel at 3am.

>The average third worlder has children as a teenager, cannot understand any English at all and spends all his free time drinking cheap beer and talking loudly in some shithole bar about succubi or some type of ball game with his retarded friends.


You really don't understand how much the world has changed in the last 20 years, do you? Not every thirdie is some Nigerian living in Lagos in a slum. There's a tremendous amount of thirdies online that are fluent in english, are posting on an old computer from 2010 the second hand shop that idles at 80% of memory that they got on the cheap. Or they're posting from a cheap android smartphone. Even poor pajeets in slums have smartphones and spend a good portion of their day online. Every second thirdie zoomer is fluent or close to fluent in english in many parts of the world. In places like Kenya, a day labourer will go home after work and chat online with his smartphone on Whatsapp.

Brazilian, Argentinain, Columbian, Egyptian, Indian lower class thirdies are often like this. The difference is there is no NEETbux and there's no possibility of getting them, and they're working full time for the same lifestyle NEETbux gets in a western country. A Jamacian wizard posted about his shithole 48 hour work week.

I learned from my very first job that working in a office is hell for the average wizard. I prefer manual jobs that keep you busy and you can just zone out during the whole shift.

i'm tempted to say this is made up or exaggerated, but then i remember university where i didn't talk to anyone in my class for like 3 years while i was there and everyone knew who i was, but i didn't know anyone's name or really cared. constantly saw and heard people talking shit about me behind my back. "there's that guy that never talks to anyone" but this one gurl actually defended me because i helped her out once during a lab thing and said i was "nice". i guess she felt bad for me.

still, i can understand why people disliked me. think they thought i was stuck up or retarded or something. i had really bad anxiety and felt the most comfortable just keeping to myself and ignoring people.

even when you're just keeping to yourself, your body language is signaling something to other people, either that you're scared or stuck up and it gives them cause to fuck with you. fortunately, i never had outright bullies, people just looked down on me but it wasn't high school so outward bullying wasn't that cool anymore. i did get bullied by some teens on public transportation tho, probably younger than me lol

The concept of copium actually fucks me up mentally.

What if all my thoughts are copium? I like to philosophize in my head but what if instead of searching for the truth I am just searching for a philosophy that will help me cope?

I was reading a thread where people complained about their programing jobs and in a moment that made me feel less worse about dropping out of computer science but what if I am just coping and seeing a vocal minority complaining as proof that graduating college and working in tech would not have made me happy so I shouldn't feel regret?

I went through the same thing with heroin years back, and it took me a while to get to baseline.

>I genuinely can't find anything to cheer myself up
I don't think you should cheer up, I think you need to find a lot of things to do and focus on.
Think about it as an onion. Until you get to the rotten bulb, delay yourself with questions (why did I quit? because it made me feel sick), maybe say a prayer (any Entity will do, even Conan's Crom), hell, you can even recite the litany against fear.
When the urges come remember, that part of you is dead and what is dead will never come back to life. Maybe visualize this craving moment as a duel in some old b&w chambara movie.
Focus on yourself for the time being and stay away from news and TV.
Find distractions that accomplish something (painting miniatures, gunpla, hobby electronics) - basically do something with your hands.
Reality hits very hard when your're off and you remember that next hit will never come, but then again, you'll never stop fighting.
At some point you'll feel like a veil has been lifted from your eyes, just as you learn to use them.
Awareness is the perfect drug. Be ever vigilant, brother.>>277814

I think I've had just about as much as I'm going to get out of life but I'm in a comfortable enough position to wait for an appropriate moment to exit. I'd like to have a safe exit on hand.

I have access to insulin (my pancreas died about two years ago now, standard autoimmune causes so no liver toxicity drugs or anything). However I can't seem to find any clarifications regarding how to dose out a suicide. Mental asylums used to OD patients on insulin to put them in temporary comas but I can't find good quantities in literature on that subject either. I hope it's not anything too insane but I've read about people walking into hospitals after taking 3000+ international units, which would be the entire 3 month supply available to me. Seems like something I'd need to add on to another method instead of relying on. I've read about a lot of doctors and nurses murdering people with insulin but sparingly few murders outside of hospitals or care facilities. That probably means the quantity required would exhaust my supply. If it was really easy then "natty" bodybuilders would be falling dead left and right.

Charcoal/monoxide is flat out. I'm on the second floor of an apartment building over a home with three children, if I wanted to go out as a murderer I'd murder more deliberately. I think this rules out a nitrogen exit bag too. Helium might be in, but I'd need to be sure it's not doped with breathable oxygen due to "global helium shortage" lies.

Hanging seems like it sucks.

Fentanyl seems like it's stupid-hard to get hands on for anyone who isn't already familiar with the arcana of drug purchases.

Intentional vehicular collision suffers from the same problem as hanging.

Guns seem to have a really good mortality rate but suffer from the attempt raising general alarm, meaning I won't bleed out to death in the event of a failure.

I guess my issue is having too many interests especially for someone who doesn't have the drive or brain power to follow them all like a renaissance man.

Instead of collecting scale models I would love to be able to make my own. Make models of video game characters I like, robots, cars, make my own OC or vehicle designs…

and just designing stuff in general like custom keyboards which has become popular recently or make a cool PC case

also I would love to be able to make clothes

and of course making a video game would be cool

and I also always had an interest in robotics

it makes it even more ridiculous that I would laze off instead of getting to it ASAP because time is of the essence ESPECIALLY for an untalented person like me who learns slower. If I got my ass to learn to draw at least I would already have a good base skill for designing stuff. Starting to learn something at 30 feels so bad when all the good artists started early.

I have pic related on my house because I live at the bottom of the hill, it's a septic system with an electric motor that pumps sewage up to the main system. It was put in pretty shady, it's a suspended motor hanging in the tank above the water line, with a normal single phase power cord (the type for an indoor house) running up across the lawn and into an outside outlet. No RCD on the thing, so if you broke it and stood on it, it could kill you.

Anyway, I had an RCD on it, but I accidentally hit the cord with the lawnmower, the motor failed and within 3 days the entire area was flooded with sewage. Because one of my renters has like 40 minute showers the water from the drain just kept on piling in. I had toilet paper and shit floating in a pond over the tank.

I had to spend all yesterday getting it fixed, in the rain, standing in literal shitwater, trying to fix wires, duct taping and sealing off the exposed parts to the fence, praying like fuck no current would leak out. The motor was submerged but managed to get working, and drained the water away. But fucking god I'm still having nightmares each night about shitwater all over the lawn. If I didn't get that fixed, or if the motor fully fucked out, I don't know what I would've done, it's been heavy rain for the last few weeks. It would've cost thousands to get the septic vehicle in to pump the shitwater out, a day to dig massive irrigation channels to filter our the rain water, money for electricans and mechanics to fix and rewire everything.

I can't do a full proper repair until summer. But because I can't afford this thing to fail I'm just going to have to wait until it's all dry, drain the tank manually with a shovel and burn all the shit on the lawn, double check everything inside the tank, take the motor in for maintenance. Get a proper cable in protective plastic, have it run underground and then up around the fence to the power box, install proper waterproof RCDs that won't fuck out. Every night I'm just having dreams of my lawn getting flooded in shit again and it's fucking scary.

Being a tall 6'3 guy that's reasonably attractive, but still autistic and mentally ill, alternating between NEETing working shit jobs, I really seem to have problems with short men.

It's like they never forgave me for being tall, never forgave me for being what I am. Every time I come across manlet middle managers they seem to always aim to publicly humiliate me or flex on me. Seizing any excuse that comes up and running with it.

I remember going to school with a guy that looked like a model but was mentally slow, close to forest gump levels of slow and he had the same thing happen to him dialed up even further. It was even normal men doing it to him because the disparity was even further.

Things seem to be going well but those negative and self doubting thoughts always creep there way back in. I haven't had a psychotic break in a long time and the medication + nootropic really is working, I've increased my support worker sessions and still go to therapy once a week to get out of my head being an Hikki. I got sober and been that way a while but now my mom is suffering from the same disease of alcoholism I had, she's ruining her life and doesn't grasp the social and personal consequences of her actions, in hospital 2 weeks, back on the piss when out rinse and repeat. So fucking frustrating I wish I could prevent this and be an example since I was worse but she's pretty fucking bad and at the mercy of addiction. After weeks of searching I found the right website which has a catalogue of courses I can do online to break away from NEETdom but I'm doubting whether I'm smart enough and if this dream is a foolish gamble, I have been molding a personality by having genuine interests in podcasts, politics, conspiracies etc, I was usually spending my days laying in bed sleeping and on my phone not even socializing digitally doing nothing productive or occupying my time at all now things are progressing. I really worry about my relationship with God and want to keep maintaining my bond with him and understanding my value while leaving the unknown to the Lord because he got me this far, I don't want to go to hell and I'm concerned no matter how much I repent or turn away from sin it's inevitable(I was a piece of shit years ago fucking certified looper), although I'm not praying or reading the Bible as much as I should I think it'll never be enough. I'm not keeping discipline to stay away from porn, it has become a habit and I feel guilty and ashamed after each wank(not really the content more letting myself and God down it's really debilitating). Others around me consider myself to be a good man with a good soul and respectful also intelligent but I question the genuineness of those claims. I find it hard to engage in interests and hobbies, I'm a Hikki/NEET and can barely bring myself to watch an anime or TV show when they're binge worthy, why is it too much to just get into media(reading included), the same can be said for vidya I want to play but just can't, feel it requires too much effort when I have unlimited time. I know this is depression and I'm honestly glad I didn't go through with suicide years ago but I still feel empty? I guess being a loser with zero IRL friends and on my own will do it, I have made significant improvements though and don't want to go backwards I can't touch alcohol even though I miss it, to unwind with a beer or bourbon would be nice but too risky. Being a paranoid and anxiety riddled guy is keeping me at a disadvantage, I guess this new me with new prospects just needs to understand depression will dip in and out and its okay for me to have troubled thoughts, I can't emphasize enough how vital it is for me to go foward and never revert back to how things were

Think Armie Hammer. Guy is like 6'5 and he literally told his dating companions he wants to eat their body parts while they die.

Since size creates a fighting advantage, it's plausible most tall men are just psychopaths or sociopaths due to historical reasons.

It's not height causing psychopathy per se, it's the most violent ancestor propagating their genes successfully. Then as they gain more male heirs that become bigger and bigger, we have a fisherian runaway where humans who are historically 1,50m to 1,65m warp to 1,90, 1,95, 2m+.

They are also a small portion of the population, but so are psychopaths. Only about 1-2% of the population are psychopaths, but also 1-2% of the population is around 6'3+. See a pattern?

I'm not saying all tall people are psychopaths. But when we look at big shot CEO's, many politicians (Trump in fact is a tall proven psychopath at 6'3), most of them have strongly dark triad traits.

If humanity wants to improve we should hire more average sized or short people. For every Napoleon who wants to kill people there are 100 tall psychopaths who go undetected.

There isn't really anything to say about anything. Life kinda just feels like a dead-end or a formality. Dissatisfying, underwhelming, mediocre, disappointing. I think that no matter how favourable an external circumstance I were in, I would still use those kinds of adjectives to describe life. This feels like purgatory. A damned, hopeless place.
But unless i'm under a severe misunderstanding, the normies seem to genuinely enjoy this life thing. That seems odd, because if they can, than it must be possible for me to as well. But I can't even imagine what that would be like. It wouldn't be like living with an endless stream of pleasure, because pleasure doesn't subdue my dissatisfaction. What would that be like?

I feel the same way about life, more or less. I'm at a point in my life where nearly everything that I've wanted I've either already gotten, like a fair amount of mental and spiritual growth, or things I am repeatedly denied, such as a high degree of solitude, a sense of purpose, a comfortable living situation, etc. All that's left for me to gain in this life are things I simply don't care for, basically normalfag desires like sexual relationships, popularity, lucrative careers, expensive possesions, wife and kids, etc.

Much like a video game with poor end-game content, I feel like I have 'completed' my life and have no logical reason to continue, only really a vague reluctance to end the game. However, I have decided to do exactly that and end my life. I know people like to pop out of the woodwork with their typical combination of empty platitudes and suicide-shaming, but my resolve to end my life is not born of misery quite as much as a desire to conclude a pointless cycle. There's simply nothing else I want to do here, and hanging onto life for no other reason than a fear of death seems silly and shallow to me.

Seems like fentanyl/heroin is the most peaceful suicide option.

You don't even have to shoot it up. You can just snort the white pure powder and you'll go under in a couple of minutes and then eventually overdose.

Imageboards and online games feel like an invention of the devil.

It has been years that I got tired of imageboards and somehow they still manage to make me waste an entire day refreshing the catalog like a monkey.

Today I fell into the rabbit hole of youtube recommendations and it was such a richer experience it made me question why I would ever waste time on imageboards. In 30 minutes I can watch a mini-documentary that teaches me something about the world. Meanwhile 30 minutes on an imageboard go by fast without learning anything.

Same for online games. The ability to quickly jump into a 10-30 minute game and the familiarity of the gameplay is so addicting even if the game isn't satisfying. Meanwhile singleplayer games require a time commitment and may have unpleasant parts like the dreaded underwater escort levels.

Is it time for me to accept that I am mentally weak and just quit imageboards and online games fullstop? No "I will just check this board when waking up and I will just play 1 game". I've been frustrated by how slow wizchan has gotten but it might actually be for the better in the end.

If you stop framing these things arbitrarily as a waste of time you'll most likely feel better about it all. Really there is no ultimate difference whether you learn something or just read some anonymous shitpost. In fact I'd say imageboards and online games fulfill an important role for hikki NEETs by giving us our fill of social stimulation during the day, which is just as important as learning. Unfortunately we are monkeys and not robots so our brains just naturally drift to these activities that seem illogical and pointless, I too would rather pack my day with deep meaningful activities but unfortunately it's just not possible, so there's no real use in worrying about it as far as I'm concerned. Embrace the waste

>arbitrarily

It's not arbitrary. On these fast imageboards most posts are shitposts. But just the possibility, no matter how small, of something interesting or funny popping up for the small investment of pressing F5 makes imageboards very addictive. It's like playing slots but you pay with your time. Every F5 press takes just a second so it's easy to convince myself to just refresh one time only for it to add up to hours. Same reason why I manage to procrastinate things for years by just telling myself I will start tomorrow.

The way posting on imageboards works is not comparable to even chatting online so it's a bad substitute.

Normally when I'm depressed or angry, I know why. There's a reason behind my mood and I know what that reason is, but today I was at a loss. I clearly felt horrible, but I couldn't work out why, I couldn't pinpoint the cause of my pain. I know happiness is fleeting, but this is getting ridiculous.

It can be really irritating when people are outside more during summer. A couple days ago there was a succubus literally flirting with a guy on the street right next to my window at night.

When I go "lol nah" all the glib happiness stopped in an instant and he doesn't speak to me.

But I'm more annoyed that I seem like that sort of gullible retard that he even tried it. It's funny how I always worry about breaking the law over the most minor shit, but there's people that just perpetually perform the same obvious, illegal hustles year in, year out and just get away with it.

I've learnt to shut up about certain things when talking to my mother because she would constantly get in my shit and try to manage me like a toddler even though im an adult. I think helicopter parenting prevented me from learning basic grown up stuff because my mother never gave me enough chances to make mistakes and instead managed me in any way possible. She also often gave me bad anxiety about things with her neurotic bullshit. The best solution for invasive parents is to keep them in the dark even if you have to lie. Lying to your parents is not a bad thing and it prevents a headache for both parties so it's a win win situation. Keep comversations light and try to not mention anything of importance and when they ask about stuff just act like there is nothing to worry about. Treat them like any other clueless boomer.

Recently I noticed that stopping myself from having certain types of thoughts, like how people judge me, really improves the way I feel. I just focus on the presence instead.
However, this approach is antithetical to what is praised in psychology, which is to understand the root cause of why I'm having these thoughts to begin with.
A therapist would say that I am suppressing something, which could lead to erratic behavior.

I'm in a strange situation with my autism where people think I'm a gullible fool, and will try to bait and manipulate me into certain situations. Except with me it blows up in their faces and they lose jobs or face huge consequences for their gayops, leaving with their tail hanging between their legs.

It plays out the same way, I'm indifferent to people and just like to politely get along with them. And while they're constantly praising me and telling me I'm the man, getting in close, I'm like "cool cool" and not really caring. Then they switch to aggressively demanding something, try bullying me or try to pressure me to do something wrong, and then I all at once just roll on them to authority figures, stating explicitly what was said and what happens in detail, and they get dealt to.

I've cost many people jobs this way and I just can't work out what it is about me that attracts this sort of attention. Why I seem to signal weakness constantly. They legitimately think they're getting close to me with all the praise, but I just don't care to correct them I guess.

Lack of aggression or the unwillingness to act with force are equally perceived by the rabble as signs of weakness. Kindness is taken to be weakness by succubi and most men. Their brains are judging filters that are querying for the dominant social elements in their environment; if you register to them as different and passive, they will rank you at a lower position and target you for manipulation. I don't necessarily think you are "signalling weakness" but rather you are signalling "differentness/difference" by appearing socially self-contained and this registers to their normie hive-brain as something that is irregular and so vulnerable and exploitable.

I get if you like specific things, I get if you're interested and you decide to do these things and get good at doing them, but then to me it feels like as soon as you share then you're just like everyone else and I don't care about you. I just don't get the point behind why people do what they do and why they see a purpose and feel happy and fulfilled when I am so far from being able to achieve the same.

No need for scars if you can just hurt your nipples, man.

Also, what do people who hurt theirselves this way have in common? Guilt? I have experienced many downs but never thought about hurting myself this way

 No.278574

>>278571
for me personaly it's a mixture of:
** conformism : there is a stereotype that people who cut themselves are losers and I feel compelled to conform to it
** I use cutting as "training" for suicide. I hope to gradually get desensitized to pain and the idea of wounding myself so that one day I might be able to rope. Not sure if it works

not guilt in my case because my situation is due to external factors (genes)
ironically I also do hurt my nipples lol

Another day I wasted just browsing the internet aimlessly. Why am I reading discussions about movies I never watched? I have ideas for how to better spend my day like reading, learning how to draw, learning how to cook… but doing anything but lying down or sitting at the computer feels like lifting heavy furniture. And I am past the point where I enjoyed the distractions… I know I don't care about the stuff I read but yet I keep refreshing the catalog. I couldn't even get myself to play one of the PC games I bought years ago on sale.

Cutting exists on different extremes. There's no end of extreme cutting in prisons and so on, and it's a common way to deal with extreme mental stress. Self mutilation is common in animals as well as human. Now, I don't want to see it, read about it, or have anything to do with it. But I will defend people getting shit on.
OP is a bit silly though talking about never washing wanting to get an infection.

I rejected a minimum wage retail job offer a year ago because I thought things had to be better elsewhere. Well the pay is better elsewhere but I'm not getting it. In that time I have had several interviews but failed to secure a job anywhere else. I have zero standards at this point I apply to every shitty fast food place or retail or restaurant and even tried the factory.

I prepare and prepare for the precious few interviews I get ready for all kinds of questions and get the most phoned in half ass attempts from interviewers who are obviously just checking me off a box right away. I redid my resume and online profile on sites like indeed. I have a reference on hand nobody has even bothered to ask for. I don't have a criminal record. I have good reasons with documentation to explain at least half of my admittedly big work gap, but no one ever asked about the gap in detail anyways. None of them ask me jack shit besides just confirming my info and one or two canned questions like, "Why do you want to work for us" now that I think about it. I spend over an hour on just making sure my appearance is ok because at this point I'm thinking maybe I have a random swastika or something branded on my forehead I'm not aware of that's spooking anyone and you can only see it at a certain angle of light what other possible reason could make this whole process so awful.

Last interview was a Wendy's of all places. I show up 12 minutes early. Interviewer is 7 minutes late. I have to go up to the front counter twice to remind them that there's supposed to be an interview happening, obviously in more polite language than I'm using now. She looks surprised when an employee tells her as she walks in that I'm there. Shows up with a piece of scrap paper and has to write my info down so they checked nothing beforehand and she told me she'd only been there a month herself. No job offer. Previous interview was months before that, next is who knows when.

I can't talk about this to anyone in real life because nobody wants to work anymore and they'll take anyone off the street and one of my coworkers is a druggie they hire literally anyone these days and that place you have 3 closed applications with is hiring you should try them and just magically spawn thousands of dollars and a credit line and a car and move.

Supposedly from crawling around online people in tech and other industries are experiencing this as well, with a couple sudden drops where recruiters just stopped calling people or people working in companies saw massive drops in hiring. But I'm not trying to get a cushy coding job or admin position in a big city I'm just trying to just put boxes on a shelf or flip a fucking burger it shouldn't be this hard. And I know these places have high turnover rates and aren't just running skeleton crews on purpose they're replacing employees with other people never me.

Sitting for days in my room depressed, unable to do anything. I realise that the only thing denoting the passing of time is how full my pissjug gets. I think, thing is full again, how long has it been. Sometimes I empty it, sometimes just start another. Feeling like I'm in a management sim game, waiting to empty it. Everything is a blur until I see the jug full again and I know I have to empty it. Time collapsed and punctuated by the pissjug of time, the liquid hourglass.
Just a pissjug thinker.

i cant accept the fact that my life is over and there's only unbearable agony for unknown time and death left. i spent all my money on doctors and found out i have allergies, asthma, ibs, nafld, scoliosis, eye problems, head problems, etc. I cant make money cant eat cant breathe and now cant sleep anymore, lost 25kg. These past few months have been nothing but utter hell. now im always in pain broke in debt and my life is over. i hope i will be able to kill myself its my only last hope left, or life will kill me instead. once u lose ur health there is nothing left and reality is worse than the worst nightmare i could ever dream in my entire life.

There’s virtually nothing to do in life unless you spend money. And even if you spend money, the older you get the more you realize you’re just a consoomer, throwing cash at businesses doing another transaction. And one can only go for a walk around the park so many times before you realize (((this))) is all there is.

Well they are, and thats exactly what is happening. I work at a call center and after 5pm we only have like 20 people taking calls for a major company. I worked food service prior and about 2018 was when they started having only 2 people on for an entire night shift after 3 pm. Its not you, its just greed.

So, I haven't given up just yet (I'll only be 24 this year), but things feel terribly bleak. I have a CS degree, I got it in May. I've been searching for a job since January: nobody is phoning me back. Nobody. I had one golden, perfect offer I really should've taken but didn't because it required relocation (within my state! And I'm earnestly searching for things outside of my state as I now realize how crazy the market is). I don't know what's wrong with my resume. I mean…I'm getting rejected by fucking call centers alongside SWE places. Is it just senior level workers trying to coast in entry level jobs? Kill yourselves.

I just want out of this shitty house with my awful father. He could be worse, I get that, and I'm thankful that I'm not out on the streets. But holy shit he is an annoying bastard to live with. I want my own space. Can he fuck off on vacation for the month again so I can larp as someone who owns his own property.

Deep in thirties. Every opportunity at a better life I end up letting pass away. I'm just too far conditioned to my awful mode of life and being, that It seems I can't step into any sort of wider/better life, even when there's a chance - or after I've worked hard to create better conditions.

May as well kms at this stage

No I had money at one point. There's nothing to spend money on. Food, unironically, lasted the longest in terms of enjoyment. Eventually the joy you get from eating diminishes to where you need to eat to the point of obesity.

Really, what are you going to spend money on?

Programmer here. I dunno about call centers, but I think this guy explains the tech job problem well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kte-t1pQQ3I&pp=ygUPdGhlbyBqb2IgbWFya2V0
TLDW is that big tech companies laid a ton of programmers off, those companies went on hiring freezes, and the laid off programmers are taking up the jobs left over at other companies. Also, employers are stupid and picky, but that's just a universal problem.

Sounds like you're getting filtered out at the resume stage, so make sure to look up "resume ats checker" to see why you're getting filtered out. Look up interview prep + leetcode. You can also do free practice peer interviews at interview.io
Don't outright lie on your resume or interviews, but you'll have to stretch the truth a bit. Especially when interviewers ask about why your job hunt has gone on for so long
Sorry that I don't really have anything encouraging to say :( just don't beat yourself up. I had to apply to 100+ companies in my last job hunt, and that was with 3 years of experience
