I am not even that horny, a lot of the days I force my self to do it while not even being in the mood for it, it's just the most effective way for me to cope, masturbation is free, gives you instant pleasure and can burn for you many hours at the time, there are times when i find my self touching myself just so I can use it as a way to distract my self for my anxieties and negative thought loops, as soon as i start touching myself all my anxiety and negative emotions start to dissolve as much as i hate and it hate how much i overdo it, i can't deny it makes getting through my days easier when i can just touch my self for many hours instead of just sitting there being miserable feeling hollow bored to tears and empty or anxious and overthinking at worse, my point here is that I believe the addiction for me is a mere sympotom, something I use to escape my negative feelings and the emptiness of my daily life, thanks for reading my blogpost

I did no fap for 70 days once but now I realize that was fake it didn't interrupt the addiction. I now genuinely have lost all interest and don't think about it at all and even when stumbling upon random material when browsing the web it doesn't do anything. Not sure if this will go on but it's the first time for almost two decades that I'm not prone to pornographic material. Certainly it's liberating I even play single player video games again.

None of those things prevent you from taking care of yourself. You being emotionally immature and having occasional localized muscle spazms doesn't prevent you from washing yourself, preparing food for yourself or your mother, or doing pretty much every other basic household task. Have some self respect. If I was a dad who had a son who considered himself too "bipolar" to take care of himself, I'd probably try to spend as much time at work as I could too. Why don't you get disability for yourself? Assuming you live in a California or someplace that considers emotional instability to be a disability, you're an adult so you can just get the paperwork and tests together yourself without your father's help.

Its hard being bad at everything, even the things you do for yourself
Whatever I touch usually ends up ruined
Its very hard on me because I allready expect to fail at whatever I try nowadays
Maybe bad luck is real, but whatever I lay my hands on usually ends up more damaged then fixed
Id like to say electronics are a hobby, but i have destroyed more then I repaired
I have no talents no ability to put any Idea I have in my mind into reality
It doesnt matter if I prepare, if I practice
My fingers dont do what I want them to
Something unexpected happens
I couldnt even fix a carburator on my bike
And I couldnt get the replacement to work either
There are very few times I have tried something and got positive results
I have been fired from every job i have ever gotten quickly
I have been learning japanese for 3 years now and I have seen other people become fluid but despite the time I poured in I still suck
Its very hard to explain to other people, they will say "you have to try more or try something different"
But I am trying and failing
Its not that im just seeing the negatives, when I actually succeed at something it makes me very happy but its a rare feeling for me
I try things, even follow tutorials and it never turns out well for me
I have ruined many things I love by trying to fix an issue and breaking them irrepairably
I just want a bit of sucess in what I do

It's not about outside perception. At the end of the day, you have to take a good, long hard look at yourself in the mirror, and you can't lie about yourself. You can't force yourself to like what isn't likable. A lot of those intelligent, creative people while having those qualities just aren't good enough - they don't cut the mustard. Could society be set up to be more forgiving? Sure, but that doesn't change the fundamental reality.

you have unfinished goals that your subconscious keeps on trying to solve, that gives you that restless feeling of wanting to do something. try to make them explicit in your awareness and either fully give up on them, get some kind of closure that allows your mind to stop obsessing over them, or actually do stuff that's relevant to those goals (but often there isn't anything you haven't already tried, which is why you've dissociated from them in the first place).

Might just be one of the myriad of things from health issues to shit life syndrome, but I've been thinking maybe my small living space is affecting me.

Still live "at home" in a flat with my mom at 30, my room is 2.5m x 5m so 12.5 square meters. (134.549 ft²american)
With all the furniture I have a usable space of about 0.8m x 3m maybe, so less than 3sqm. (25.833 ft²)
Spend all day sitting at my desk anyways so whatever.

Been wondering if maybe this tiny space is part of the reason why I just don't do anything.
Do any of you have experience with living in a small space for a decade+?

Sounds like over pathologization of a something that is just common sense. Restlessness, irritability, difficulty concentrating, etc. are all just bullshit symptoms that could apply to anyone in any situation.
Yes, if you're couped up a tiny room for a prolonged period of time it gets boring and annoying and you want to go outside and have a change of scenery.
Nobody would say that you have "doctor's office-fever" which includes symptoms such as "irritability and restlessness".

Whatever validity there may be in acknowledging "living in a less than optimal state" has physical symptoms, balkanising the causes seems counter productive.

Does anyone here struggle with alcohol, or have managed to quit?

It used to be a good coping mechanism for me, but it seems the older I've gotten the worse it feels, and it's become detrimental to my health and the way I behave around people. Easily annoyed, constantly starting shit, tired all the time, strange pains. And I was still getting worse, fast.

This has been a wake-up call and I'm realizing I need to quit before it's too late. Though that's easy for me to say now when I'm still feeling bad, and I fear the cravings will come back strong, but I know I've got to try.

Curious to hear others experience with this.

I just now went for a walk and saw two kids playing with a ball, it came over to me so I passed it back. It was a weak pass. I barely touched the thing and it meandered slowly back across the grass. They made fun of me. I told them to fuck off. We then had a twenty minute anime battle through different environments, ending in Dead Rising tier weapon combinations and chairs beat across heads. Then I woke up.

Been out of school for over a decade and still get little reminders like this of the shitty time I had, lol.

This thread is for talking about OCD, addictions, or those kinds of disorders that ruined our lives
>So
When I was a kid, I had some pretty OCD-like behavior—I’d touch things and check them over and over until I felt reassured that everything was okay. I also used to walk on my tiptoes, which is a bit autistic, but I eventually stopped doing that (I don’t know if I have autism at this point bacause never did a test, but whatever).
>So what’s up with you?
Well, in my case is limerence (some studies say is co-related to OCD)
>And what’s that like?
Well, imagine a succubi (for some people even can be the other sex you dont like) talks to you and treats you kindly once or twice, and then you start getting way more than just nervous around her because your body starts releasing dopamine, serotonin, and all that shit. And since you don’t know what’s going on, you think you like her or have fallen in love, but its NOT.
really it’s just fucking anxiety toward a “thing.” Because you’re constantly seeking validation in some way—whether for friendship, attention, or love but you have this anxiety that you know is inappropriate, and if you act on it, the feeling of danger gets worse, it’s almost like you’re having a heart attack. and as time pass the thing got worst and worst and you get more obsessive, nerveous and get a peak of anxiety, even start to rumiate or have that thing of limerence (LO) living rent free in your head bacause your brain cant stop thinking about your LO
>What was the worst experience you've ever had?
Even you will end starting to dream with the LO and have happy dreams or nightmares and waking up crying bacause you are getting the peak of anxiety and dopamine,etc sec before waking up. this shit can even ruin friendship.
>Why the hell does this happen?
I don’t know, genetics, anxiety, depression, emotional dependency, low self-steem, negligent parents, love hungry, maybe OCD etc and a whole lot of shit
>You're larping this nonsense
but in my case, it’s not like those internet memes of bitch tumblr succubi where it only happens once and they use like a joke for love or crush
>You're a retard and you fall in love go fuk yourself wizard
No, no it’s happened to me constantly over the Post too long. Click here to view the full text.

You limerance object is probably a poor person who masks it well or something of that kind.

Normally, people wouldn't notice but you can sense there is something off about the person. Wears second-hand clothes, maybe? Smells with many people at once because her jacket has never been washed despite several people have tried it?

You probably may pull a "if her clothes did not give off that second hand punk vibe…" rumor to remove the limerance object out of your epsilon-area

OCD robbed my adolesence and ruined my life.

When I was an unborn baby, I was in the womb of a succubus who had a faulty heart tube due to childhood rheumatic fever, was nutritionally deficient, ate poorly, smoked and did drugs (but no alcohol surprisingly lol), and was under chronic stress. My prefrontal cortex was largely underdeveloped. On top of that, she was very abusive. Imagine being a mother, giving birth to this fragile baby after nine months and violently beating the baby because it didnt immediately act like an adult. Yeah.

As a result, my brain is permanently hardwired to be mentally ill and retarded. I tried my best to exist, but its very difficult. Killing myself sounds really nice these days, but the pain of living gets so overwhelming that moving around is painful, let alone making the effort to die. Why does dying have to be so effortful? I dunno.

I’ve come here to bitch, wizards. I’m an apprentice barely, I suppose (22 years), but I will be a wizard (for multiple reasons and beliefs), so I like the site a lot. Anyways, I’m in despair and will be in utter and complete despair for two weeks.

My parents forced my NEET-ish ass into university because they mean well and don’t want me to die on the streets once they die but not only is university/studying not for me but I’m on med school of all things, I’ve already flunked more than one class since I started the career like 2-3 years ago, so shit isn’t going well, not only that due to a stupid retarded class I’m being forced to spend two, I mean TWO fucking weeks with normies to do sort of stupid social work in some shitty rural town that’s even more shitty than my already dog shit town (not rural), I can’t even go back home for a single day on the duration of that, I’m not sure if I’ll survive, thankfully due to my mental illness (Szpd) I’ll probably be able to detach and survive but it’s going to be horrible, I don’t even like sleeping, bathing etc on the house of my grandparents (probably the unique people whom I somewhat trust and feel “oka-ish” being around outside of my parents and older brother), I might not really feel stressed, despairing and such but I know it’s happening, I just can’t feel it due to being mentally ill, of course I can still get the somatic part anyways, so my stomach is a mess right now and I feel like shitting for 5 hours straight, my hands have trembles a bit too, it’s like I’m in purgatory or something, what the fuck did I do to deserve this ? I guess that’s what I get for being depressed and suicidal for years all the while still keeping up the lie that “I want to be a doctor” because I didn’t even think I would be alive to reach university or the career itself, nor did I have (or really have) goals or a job/career I wanted, it was easier to lie at the time and just kill myself eventually. Thankfully, I got better, and I’m even content with my life in general (which is the closest I can have to happiness, as I only get to feel emotionally happy here and there for a couple of minutes a few times per year), but now I’m stuck in this horrid situation. At moments like these, I kind of wish I could at least not be mentally ill, I would have found something I really wanted to do by now or would be able to push through this career even if it’s exclusively for the degree.

But such thinking is useless, I’m now sPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

you would probably stutter trying read your own post out loud in public, and it’s understandable since most people on this site spent years isolating in their room and lost any meaningful ability to communicate, being able to speak to normies without wanting to run away or shoot them in the head is a very difficult skill that needs to be practiced everyday to not be atrophied, most wizards cannot afford to speak to someone every single day, the fight or flight response is an annoyance at best and sweating or having a shaky voice is not going to save you from being beheaded by a normie anyways, nobody is going to give you a medal for making things harder for yourself, just take drugs and use any advantage you have to survive the horror of being alive, human bodies are imperfect, just because it’s natural for your body to release adrenaline in everyday situations doesn’t mean you should put up with it, just take the easy path

You probably should ask chatGPT/some other AI to cook a convincing literature club grade story on how horrifying it is to be a doctor.


Take 3 online tests to determine what kind of job you want to do.
Because, if youre afraid of blood and biohazardous materials (get infected once and you're in for a costy treatment)… but okay with being covered with coal and oil, then mechanical jobs are better for you than doctor ones.

 No.308578

Old people will form the overwhelming majority of the population in a few decades, so being a doctor sounds like one of the few jobs guaranteed to exist, if you're going to drop it don't expect to get a comfy job in the third world instead, unless you have rich or well-connected parents.

What is the average wizard's relationship with religion like? No religious person has ever been able to give me a good argument for why God, if he is out there, is not the most maximally evil being in the universe simply by the virtue of creating suffering when he could have chosen not to. Saying "suffering builds character" and derivatives of is just a manifestation of their stockholm syndrome for this vile entity

Tried to convert to christianism 2 times after reading the Bible just to give some meaning to this life but after some internal strife my mind said nope, I just don't see what would be the point of so much suffering in the world being created just for muh testing, if another human killed your family and claimed that he's testing your soul would you take it kindly? Because that's exactly what happens in the book of Job after satan suggests it to god, the book was likely written by an atheist that hated religion because you can clearly see a change of style in the second half of it where Job just bends over and takes it, that was an addition by jewish priests.
