I'm in my mid-20s, have failed two college degrees, may flunk a third, am underweight, , have no friends, am mentally ill (ADHD), never had a job, and am generally a loser.
I'm in my late 20s. Have failed two college degrees, one of them twice. Good thing education is free where I live, or I would be in a lethal debt. Am currently overweight, but was obese, then underweight for a brief moment, then moderately ripped, and now am a weak, flabby creature of fat. Have no friends, never went to a psychiatrist, second full-time job, and am generally a loser.
>>208137 Most first world countries have free college Most first world countries do not have a school shooting problem, either And believe it or not, socialized healthcare is real too
>>208147 >Most first world countries have free college I dont think that's true. All the anglosphere is fucked. Only a subset of european countries; even in europe i'd guess it's not the majority. Even in the nordic countries, socialised healthcare is so slow and bad that many people pay for private healthcare. I hate how americans assume everyone is american but in case i dont feel it applies.
>>208147 most posters are american, or at least this seems the default 'culture', for example you are even speaking english. you dont need to be so snooty about it, i wish you guys would always preface your posts with your country, it inevitably becomes a guessing game of european countries
>>208129 Thanks, I wish you the best as well! >>208135 No, I don't have a car or license. I live in the city so it isn't needed plus when you have no social life you don't need a car. I'll look into Amazon and the shrink though. >>208137 >>208147 I am from germany, a semester tuition of college costs around 200-400 bucks.
Go back and finish them. I wanted to quit my degree after I had to spend an extra year on it, and I'm grateful I had parents to push me to complete it. You will never leave the depressed quagmire you are in without financial freedom, and you need a degree for that.
>>208154 >tiers above being an uncomfortable skinnyfat alien build I feel like this'll be me if I lose weight at the gym. I've always been a bordering-300-pounds lardbutt, since pre-puberty, and at age 19 I have two big luscious milky titties that I already know I'll need to get surgically removed regardless if I lose weight the "right away" or not. Once I stop being a poorfag NEET I'll most likely get lipo, but I'm wondering if I should just save up for the surgery instead of paying for a gym membership.
>I'm in my mid-20s, have failed two college degrees, may flunk a third,
do you even like college or the jobs that you can get with a degree or the companies that offer jobs to people who have the degree you are aiming for? i was a fool who studied into my 30s only to learn that i completely reject the principles (profit over people) that the companies who are offering jobs are subjected to. also i learned nothing of any significance, it was nothing but useless torture and i threw away my youth. >am underweight
that shouldn't be that hard to fix. >have no friends,
this too is well within your ability to fix. >am mentally ill (ADHD),
never use their diagnose, it is not helpful. always describe your mental health by the actual symptoms you are experiencing. you can not trust this corrupt system to represent you best interest, which after covid should be obvious to anyone. you have to learn about this shit yourself. >never had a job,
good. all it does is wear you down and crush your dreams. >and am generally a loser.
losing implies viewing life as a competition, which is a perspective that more intelligent and aware people generally don't align with. traumatizing people into considering life a struggle and a competition is what school seems to be actually for and it is just an evil trick to get you to sacrifice yourself and your dreams in order to make others rich. don't fall for it.
>>208166 You don't lose weight at the gym, you lose weight by eating right. If you go to the gym for intense cardio, you'll get hungrier. Try walking instead.
I'm in my mid 20s I drop college because dont have money to keep paying and also I dont have motives to continue. I just got into it because my parents push me to do it.
I don't have a job,wish I had one.
I don't have a birth certificate, my parents never cared to do it and wasn't aware of that until 18. Legally I don't exist.
I've tried to get my documents done but my parents need to show up and they don't give a fuck.
I don't give a fuck either
No one in this damn fucking house gives a fuck
We barely had electricity
and food to eat
I wish to kill myself, and sometimes my parents too.
>I've always been a bordering-300-pounds lardbutt, since pre-puberty, and at age 19 I have two big luscious milky titties that I already know I'll need to get surgically removed Don't fret. For men, the fat they put on easiest is the first to be burned. Diet, drug intake, sitting posture, and even sleeping posture have a huge influence on the particulars of a fat man's fat man body shape. Don't let yourself be held back by the prospect of "This ugly part of me may not look better". Rather, do your best to get healthier overall and if something still doesn't look right by the time you're feeling right, seek special solutions. Also, exercising your pectoral region will encourage elastin distribution in the chest area which will help to rectify much saggyness.
>>208185 Faggot! Your post is very bad. The man is trying to get his body in to shape and you're trying to sway him away from that. I think you are trolling by pretending to be a female. >You don't lose weight at the gym Yes, I and millions of other men do. Fat is expended when one burns more calories than he takes in. Resistance training burns many calories. Every gram of muscle a man builds also burns calories passively throughout the day, so the larger his muscles, the more fat he burns. When a man does intense training and achieves hypertrophy, his muscles use up new nutrients to repair, so what he does eat, less of its calories get stored for later as fat. >you lose weight by eating right. We lose weight by eating LESS >If you go to the gym for intense cardio, you'll get hungrier. Yeah, and the solution to that is to endure the hunger. Build discipline and reconfigure our bodies to be less sensitive to the feeling of an empty stomach. Fat people who sit and eat all day are the most hungry because they've let their body believe that being stuffed 24/7 is normal, so it signals hunger when there is a moment of diet. A man who eats small portions and combines that with exercise will be satisfied with small amounts of food will never "suffer" from hunger. >Try walking instead. Burns very little calories. Squats would burn more. Though every obese man should walk in routine to maintain lower joint and vascular health.
walk on the first day, then walk more on the next day, then more on the next day, then more on the next day but never walk so much you can't walk the next day.
if you are intense on your first day then your result will be muscle ache and frustration and by the time your muscles have recovered, you forgot that you wanted to start doing sports.
on day 10 you can start to increase the intensity.
building of the habit is so much more important then giving your all once. on the first day it is enough to just put on your sports wear on to walk a single step in front of your door (assuming this will help you will walk two steps the next day).
>>208220 Okay, I guess I should reveal more about myself (I'm 300 pound anon) I do physical work, roofing to be specific. I think this is the reason why I'm consistently the same weight. I never gain any weight, but I seemingly don't lose it either. I actually do take nightwalks; I talk walks in the woods and don't stop for hours. So, I'm not a newcomer to physical training so to speak. My muscles wont collapse on themselves if I start working out at the gym; all I plan on doing there is 45 minutes a day on the elliptical
>>208221 >I actually do take nightwalks; I talk walks in the woods and don't stop for hours.
oh wow i think you are doing your body quite a big favor with this. this gets the lymph pumping (helping you release metabolic waste) and maybe you sweat and thus release additional metabolic waste. believers in naturopathis principles such as myself consider the failure to release metabolic waste the single most important issue in human health.
to reach 300 pounds even though you are doing the night walks i consider quite the rare achievement. makes me wonder if you eat a lot of garbage. in other words i suspect that small tweaks in what you eat should results in big effects in terms of weight.
elliptical seems like a wise choice though i (who prefers to err on the side of caution) would start with something 25 minutes on day one and then 35 on day and 45 on day 3.
>>208213 >and also I dont have motives to continue.
i've grown up in a time where the internet was something that i used because i liked it and it helped me. it had not become this content horror show that it is now. i had quite the innocent youth and i am still quite innocent. not innocent in the sense of being unaware of the horror but innocent in the way of believing the world was heading in a good direction. if i was a young person now i would have the same hoeplessness that i only recently noticed in myself that honestly i don't really feel like participating in this scumworld. probably nice to be young while there is such easy access to information and material; meanwhile horrible because you are basically unwelcome everywhere on a dying planet. i'd love to give you some wisdom that helps you and make you feel good but i don't think i have any.
>Legally I don't exist. actually sounds nice to me. i think i'd like that.
>>208225 >I can't go anywhere if I dont had papers, well I could… as a homeless person and probably that's where I'm going to be in a not so distant future. >Is that or commit suicide whatever comes first.
commit suicide is a quick way out and in an existence that is torturous, it is understandable. i don't like it since humans die anyways so what's the rush. life is quickly over anyway and it's very seldom the assholes who kill themselves, unless they are surrounded and about to face justice, like hitler did it.
>>208229 >Yeah I do eat plenty of trash. Trying to cut back and learn how to cook. Its a work in progress
i've been eating so healthy most of the time, i couldn't even justify eating trash anymore. the human organism on plenty of exercise and good food is something completely different then stagnant and full of industrialized food. i look at trash eaters in disbelief in how this could be chosen over health. i guess they don't understand how big of a difference in quality of life it makes. i take zero medication or supplementation, i never have to go to the doctor, i regenerate quickly and the only limiting factor i experience is psychological, never physical. i guess nobody knows life can be this nice.
>>208270 >i take zero medication or supplementation, i never have to go to the doctor, i regenerate quickly and the only limiting factor i experience is psychological, never physical. i guess nobody knows life can be this nice.
>>208116 >le no frens, useless cucked schooling system, jobs being crap when they are not utterly hard to access Stupid is to blame yourself for not being surrounded by proper peers.
>>208317 >Being young makes an even bigger difference.
how'd you know, normal people have not understood the difference so the people whose opinion you have uncritically copied who are doing your thinking can not even account for that thus it can not be known to you.
>>208322 I have no idea what you are trying to say. Anyway, not having to worry about chronic pain and illness as a young person is nothing to write home about. When you'll be sixty you can brag all you want.
oh so that's what i was doing all along, bragging to some clueless has-been who doesn't do his own thinking.
the other day i heard someone middleaged describe that when he was a child he would not believe when sick old people tell stories that begin with "when i was as young as you" and simply don't believe them, just assuming they were doing something wrong. just refusing to believe them they were young. "no you were never young."
i get a similar feeling with you. there is important stuff you have not been doing and now you are trying to talk to me like you did all the important stuff.
>>208116 ADHD has no treatment. I'm guessing that 80% of the success stories you hear are from normal people with just mild inattentiveness. I've tried multiple amphetamines, ritalin, research chemicals and the like - mild to no response to all of them.
>>208753 >ADHD has no treatment >I've tried multiple amphetamines, ritalin, research chemicals and the like - mild to no response to all of them.
but what have YOU tried? those are just medical system for-profit answers to it. what else have you tried to your condition and how does the adhd manifest?
how many hours have you: >meditated? >exercised? >fasted? >prayed? >danced? >smoked weed? >went to explore nature?
what about playing instruments, taking enema, going dancing, sleeping in a tent, trying extreme sport.
pills and chemicals are not how you make your life better, you make life better through your choices on what to do.
>>208783 Medication is the treatment for ADHD, not exercise or meditation. And I do exercise, so the point is moot anyway. Praying to God is of course good for my immortal soul and the longing for the beatific vision, but it won't fix my neurons.
>>208116 ADHD is not quite a mental illness but it kind of is. Okay don't freak out about the idea of it 'mental illness' type of thing. These psych people seem to be like making some kind of guide to figure out how to help people and if the sign posts later point in a different direction go there.
like you could see your doctor about wheat or dairy intolerance or maybe sulphides, rule that out and see if it gets you on top for awhile and if not dont freak out
the test they do for adhd is fucking boring. its not just you have adhd so you find it boring no it is fuckingboring
and sometimes it is hard to pay attention to people and remember shit even without adhd all them normies forget where they left their keys routinely, they seem to forget they said shit
why should you be bashing yourself up for doing adhd level of distractibility when yourre not in control of it yet not saying you are going to be, but you could have more control with the resources out there,, there's mind training websites and such
its something to do
and if you have adhd flunking a degree is really not a surprise. okay that shit is known to have people forgetting what year it is and then winding up at exams late. no really you can have alarms and shit and still do that. bet you have. bet you really tried. bet you still went off with the pixies and didn't know what day it was.
not your fault.
you can try and fix that there's tools available but ultimately you might need to except that their system of fake time control and associated wankery is just unnatural and driving everyone exhausted. so youre not the problem
>>208786 >Medication is the treatment for ADHD, not exercise or meditation. And I do exercise, so the point is moot anyway. Praying to God is of course good for my immortal soul and the longing for the beatific vision, but it won't fix my neurons.
i don't agree. you have to try all the stuff that makes your life better and when you are on a generally good trajectory in life, everything becomes better. everything fixes itself when you are on a good path, why would adhd be different? you waste your life searching for a 'treatment'. what a dirty concept. when they say treatment they mean recurring revenue motivated slight relief solution. you don't want treatment, you want cure.
the world of stagnant spew that we exist in has a phsychic stench that burns a hole in my soul and looking at it i can only brace for the fires and stare into hell
>>208116 I'm 34, dropped out of high school in 2006, have made two, three, four, maybe up to five attempts at earning my adult high school diploma, am nearly 90 pounds overweight, haven't had any "real" friends probably since 2002, haven't had any "internet friends" since 2009, am mentally ill (MDD, GAD, SAD, ADHD, PDNOS, PTSD, DD), worked as a mall cop for one month in late-2011… >How are you guys? Could be better. I could be playing video games if I had the money.
I'm doing just fine. Few weeks ago I declared this to be my summer to take a break from all the things I normally make myself do and just take it real easy and it's been working out just great for me brah
>>208116 Close to me, but I did manage something eventually. I just cant see myself finding whatever I do meaningful enough to just survive. I guess survival is what we're here for after all.
Just spent $250 on a psych visit and got a prescription. According to the psych I have to check in once a month (and pay whatever fees for that) to keep the prescription.
The cost is absurd for treating this disease. It's probably cheaper to synthesize the drugs from scratch in your fucking basement than be throttled for all your income by some faux-doctor.
>>209237 What pickles me is how I will hyperfocus on a certain conversation or emotion and be unable to get off it. Usually, it's negative emotions. My memory is also dogshit and I generally have to be reminded every 5 minutes or I go off track.
