For example, myself, I love to help others but rarely can I help myself, I'm too indifferent, I have no goals, nothing to strive for and it pains me because I know I can achieve if I apply myself.
How does one find themselves if everything is subjective?

I lost my confidence.

My knock knee condition has led to an inferiority complex. I was able to live life fine until co-workers pointed out my legs.

"Does your knee hurt?"

"Your knee is not right."

Then, I remembered all the other people who asked about my knees since I was a boy. My teacher in college, my P.E. teacher in seventh grade, etc.

I know I shouldn't be sensitive, but I can't stop the punches.

I quit.

Psychologically, I am ruined, much like a traumatized dog.

In 2012 and 2013, I used to go running outside, ride my bike, play basketball, go to the gym.

Those days are behind me. I don't have confidence anymore. I'm always -- and I mean ALWAYS -- thinking about my deformity... even in the confines of my bedroom.

I used to have confidence until people shot me down. I'm like a boxer who took too many blows. Never the same.

Ah, anon, I feel you, if tangentially, I was bullied pretty harshly throughout my schooling years.
It's a pain that never really heals
But you have to rise beyond that
And I KNOW its hard, if not almost impossible
But you have to live life for yourself, and only for yourself
So what your legs are fucked somehow?
What does that prevent you from doing?
You have to realize that people are assholes, it's the nature of society to shun those who are different, but does your mind still work? Of course it does!
You, and only you, choose how you live, fuck everyone else, they, in the grand scheme of things, are not important to how you live

A brain damaged football player said,

"The things we do to each other..."

Humans ruined me. I lost my confidence, my self-belief, the very thing that fueled self-improvement.

Sadly, now my anxiety has worsened and I am noticing the early signs of depression.

Don't let them take your soul like I did. Fight back till the bitter end. Stand up for yourself no matter what.

Escapism anon
Do not let it control you, yes, it is fun and yes you can avoid your responsibilities, but what do you do then?
Obviously you are unhappy that you can't get motivated, why is this?
See? There is a part of you that strives for something more, you must find out what that is.
Only you can do that, but we can help, infact as fellow humans, it is our duty to try.

It will not have a negative influence on your body, the only thing that might happen is a "negative" influence on your mind, should you use it too often and in too high a dose
Shrooms (psychadelic ones) are a poison to the human body, that's what causes the effects, but with moderate usage will not do any permanent harm.

Well, I don't personally have OCD
But, based on my experiences, I believe it will help you
A mushroom trip, much like acid etc, is not something easily explained
It imparts a feeling of letting go, of just being, appreciating the intricacies of life but on a whole new level, once you come down, you will carry the experience for life, but it is not a burden, but a learning experience
You will learn about yourself mostly, and that is the most important part of the trip.
It's funny how it seems a daunting task to trip on mushrooms. Much like trying any other drug for the first time, the stigma attached is large, but if you are in a good state of mind, with friends you trust, in a controlled environement, it can only be beneficial to you.
If you are looking for advice on setting up your mushroom trip I would be glad to answer your questions
>>
>>578624137
I think I understand more now. I'll think about what to do next. I think that letting go might be just what I need at the moment. Thanks for the advice man; I'm gonna go write an essay now.

You see what happened there though?
Strangers don't mean as much when they criticize you, now co-workers, that's a different story, you feel a small amount more trust towards them and they let you down. Learn to never trust others anon. Except those who you KNOW are trustworthy, just because someone is nice to you, doesn't mean you can trust them.
Let that be a lesson learned, ultimately, that is the way society functions.
I don't know you anon, but I love you. You are not alone

Good luck my friend, and remember, there will always be people out there like us, you just need to find them. You would do well to find any of your friends who have done mushrooms before and consult them. Should they try to explain the trip to you, stop them there and just ask how best to prepare and enjoy it. Godspeed

It does, yes. Does it comfort you as well?
It makes me happy that despite what I may or may not have, mentally or physically, I have the capacity to help others. And I would like to do so in whatever capacity I can, it gives a sensation of moving forward even though I am not.
This will have been my first ever thread, perhaps I should do more in the future? Im unsure.

Haha, for sure, it's funny, you always underestimate the amount of people that are just like yourself but somehow you never connect
And, escapism is a terrible thing but also sometimes necessary
Anon, 90% of people on this earth cant cope with life, it's just that most people lie to themselves and tell themselves that they can.
And though it is a daunting task, even if I can help a few people, it's still worth it.
History never mentions the people behind the success (tangentially) because they are not noteworthy, however, you and I both know that people like that are the most important, we just don't worry about fame or fortune

Alcohol is an anchor, it is good in moderation, but in large doses, it keeps you docile, it destroys your dreams, it holds you back. You must fight the temptation to be a nobody and coast along.

You see what I'm saying? And I don't mean to patronize but you could have all the help in the world, hell I've been depressed a long time, I;ve had alot of friends fall by the wayside because they gave up on me.
Why did they do that? Because they can only push you so for, the rest is up to you. People will help you as much as they are able but damnit man you need to help yourself!

But the next day I just sit on my couch and get super drunk and lose my momentum.
It's an uphill battle to be sure, I know exactly that feel brother.
See, what I've figured is, it's a lack of will, motivation, you need a goal, you can self improve but it never gets far before falling into the old cycle, you've yet to find your "calling" as it were, I feel that so hard.
Your english is immaculate, don't worry about that.

>>578628802

I have the same problem. I just can't motivate myself to do anything for my own sake. I used to work really hard for the sake of my girlfriend and getting to see her but she's gone now, so I'm just lost and really unmotivated. I think if you think about it you'll be able to come up with something that motivates you personally (like working for the sake of people close to me for me)

>>578629140

I do, as well, have problems, not talking but reading people and their reactions and feelings. I guess its something one has to learn. I really can't initiate a conversation either, but once its started in rather good at keeping it alive.

>>578629036

You truly are ^^

>>578621559
Ok OP, hopefully you're still here because I really need some help
I haven't gone to any of my classes in 3 weeks, and I don't know what to do. I didn't go before because of my social anxiety, ADD, and general lack of motivation. Now my doctor has doubled my dose of sertraline and prescribed me adderall, and I feel much better. However, I don't know what to do now, I'm afraid to go into class because I have nothing to show for the 3 weeks I've missed. I've missed also flat out missed a test, as well as multiple essay deadlines. I don't know what to tell my teachers, either. I've had this same problem in the past, and have been on academic probation fall quarter freshman year and winter quarter sophomore year, so I am in danger of being kicked out.
My parents are also paying for my tuition, yet have no knowledge about my academic probation. They think I'm doing fine. I feel terrible letting them down like this.
I have no idea what direction to go in, I feel like a complete failure. Please OP, I really need guidance.

This man, how do we get past this. I've seen so many chances that I could've taken, but if I take them i'll just be awkward and not know what to start talking about.

Yes see, you're like me, you thrive on good conversation but you don't much mind how it starts but you enjoy guiding it.
Anon, I suggest you learn, that is the most important part of life (imo) being able to read others, work on it, it will reward you.

>>578629806
Ok look, like I said, you absolutely have to have some skill in reading emotions of others, otherwise you r conversations are not going to work out my friend. Focus on what has been said, think of how you can continue the conversation, and improve upon it.
Conversation is all about steering it in whatever direction pleases you.
It seems shallow but most conversations are. It takes practice
Also, sometimes you're just apathetic, thats why you dont want to use the conversation, I feel you, I usually let others talk before reaching a point I feel I can butt in and make myself known.
I'm sorry all if my responses aren't adequate. I am trying, I'm only one man, please be patient.

are you me? my only little motivatien is just to do something productive with my life, actually change something for once instead of deluding myself
>>
I'll just post this b4 I g2 sleep:
Your mind controls how you perceive everything, how everything is taken in, how you project urself.
If you want it, take it, don't be a cocky little shit, but literally mindfuck yourself into generating a more dominant state. Women notice it instinctively, but that isn't the point,
Why do you make gains at the gym?(if you go)
It's not for anyone else but for you. Everything you do is self interested, even selfless behavior is still committing to your self Interest to not be selfish.
Nurture, not nature, is why most poor people do not build themselves. The lazy stoner cultivated his environment. The asain foreign exchange student created his lavish but undisciplined lifestyle.

Look around at the people around you and contemplate how the end up where they are? This isn't some "how to alpha" bs. You are your own god. You create the experience.
Suffer the pain of discipline at training g your mind to be motivated, or suffer the pain of regret one year from now when you wake up feeling exactly how you are feeling today.

See, you're problem is you care too much about other people, yes you should care about them, but ultimately, life is about numero uno
Yourself
If you're not interested in the conversation you need not apply yourself
However, socializing is an important thing.
All you have to do is find a common interest, or topic of conversastion, it seems hard but it is quite simple.
Happy to be of service :)

for the past 6 months or so i should have been doing physical therapy to fix some things after my surgery. i did it consistently for the first month or so but stopped once i stopped going to my physical therapist. i have all the routines and equipment needed to keep doing it on my own but i'll do it once or twice then stop for a week or more. i don't know how to keep myself motivated. the fact that i can't get a job or really do anything isn't even enough to get me up off my ass

Don't try to do it all at once anon. Tell yourself that you'll clean your room / appartement / house tomorrow. Then the next day tell yourself you'll wake up earlier and have a proper breakfast, or take a shower or whatever. As many have stated, take it step by step.

I've been in that exact position, and in a way am there even right now. I was motivated by my girlfriend, the thought of being with her and seeing her made me work really hard (we were long distance)
Just start from small things. I started by deciding ill only play one match in a videogame and then stop. It makes you feel a lot better when you realize you actually stopped after that round.
Best of luck random anon, I hope you manage it all well.

I got a concussion about a year ago and it ended up making me fall into a crazy depression. I gained about 35 pounds which shattered my self confidence and made my social anxiety increase. It seriously fucked me. Whenever I try to be active I run out of energy in minutes and I had to leave my school cause it dumbed me up so I was failing all my courses. Been thinking about suicide cause I honestly cant see me getting much better any time soon.

Two of my friends and one family member died in the same month. This was 5 months ago. I have been diagnosed with clinical depression and have been taking 100mg zoloft each day.

I feel more pain for the passing of those two friends. they were closer than family.

Dad died when I was 8, moved out of my moms house at 16. Don't speak to my mom or my older sister. Dont know their birthdays or nothing.

Those friends were I all had. Also filled with regret for being a shitty family member.

I am on the 6th week of a 10week college session. So there are only 4 more weeks left of class. I havent gone to campus for lecture or studied in the past 6 weeks.

I have a job offer. It's a very good job. The only contingency is I have to graduate in 4 weeks. I am taking difficult classes and havent done anything yet. Hard to get motivated when I wake up.
>>
>>578621690
Are you me? I can give anyone advice, constantly go out of my way to help friends achieve their goals, romantic advice etc.

I have wasted many of my natural talents, settled in at a shitty job just because its easy and kinda safe, still havent gotten my bachelors and am in a difficult relationship. I know i can do better if i put my mind to it, and ive started to, but its so hard to find motivation when i dont see a future for myself.
