Constant depression and on the verge of suicide everyday. Currently in CC until I get the credits to transfer, but I have to work full time so I'm not homeless and have nowhere else to live. It's fucking my studies up and I feel like I'm fucked. I went from two 4.0 semesters to a 2.3 semester because I couldn't devote the time I needed thanks to my shitty job. Just kill me.

damn, im one of the oldest here

30. got fired from a shitty low end bioscience job cause of my raging alcoholism. now ive conquered that so i feel a lot better. have had relationships, only one fulfilling and i still miss her like hell. i know right now i dont have much to offer women, and as i get older the time is running out. about to move from the sf bay area to the central valley(the armpit of ca) and live on one of my parents rental properties for dirt cheap. its not quite as pathetic as actually living with them. hoping my godfather can hook me up with a job working in a milk lab testing for pathogens and what not. shits definitely not going that well but now that i am embracing being a loser and just content to stay inside playing vidya all the time i feel surprisingly ok. at this point i dont even necessarily want a gf unless we have a shitload in common which is rare to find and even rarer that they are attractive and want me back.

One even said "I seem wonderful" but pretty much the second they find out I'm unemployed due to anxiety & depression they instantly lose interest.

Why am I even bothering..I have nothing to offer a relationship..I have no worth as a partner..all women at this age are looking to settle down or find a betabux provider for the kids they already have...

I have considered maybe a cert IV in IT or something (I'm Australian for reference). I'd love any insight into this if there are any aussies about.

I will definitely get a job asap, I'm working on updating my resume at the moment. I got first class honours last year, so I'm not sure if that shit will be a help or a hindrance for basic work.

I am 31 and have a job as a OTR truck driver.
Started back in October 2013.
I am getting tired of it. I miss being home.
I love the money but its just too much.
Before I got this job in trucking I was a NEET for 8 months in 2013.
Before that I worked in a factory during all of 2012.
My advice is to never date someone you work with because it fucked me over.
2009-2011 I was NEET after being in the military and spending 2008-part of 2009 in Iraq.

I think I will quit next year and be a NEET for some time while I decide what I want to do.
During NEET time I will try out juicing to lose weight, the downside of being a trucker is I have gained a lot of weight and am now obese.

doing PhD and working part time to make some extra ends meet

holy shit i would be gutter trash if i didn't have the one profession that allows me to be a weird fuckup and no one cares. i almost get fired from my "real" jobs twice a week. even my nice bosses see me as an incompetent retard. late every single day.

i'm really on point while i'm there, i do good work and i don't slack off. i even work through my breaks just because i want to get jobs done etc. but in terms of actually dragging myself in, i just have the worst track record, and i constantly shoot my mouth off and get in trouble with normie coworkers who can't handle some autistic guy saying he hates every pop culture thing they like and occasionally semi-racist shit.

i would be serially fired from every job if i had to be a regular 9-5 guy. the only thing that makes these ones even barely tolerable is that i know they're not permanent, and if i get fired i don't really care that much. but if this were my actual life, let alone if i were trying to start at the bottom of a ladder and work my way up, i'd be fucked forever.

I dont know if I want to be a truck driver anymore after next year though.
Also the local jobs where I am at dont pay as much as OTR, and the local jobs require more physical work.
I work for a small carrier and in 2015 I made 65k. I can get whatever time I want off and can have however long I want off.
I have friends who are local drivers only making 40k a year and they work long hours and its physically demanding.
My stepdad is a delivers fuel to gas stations but he needed 4 years of experience to get that job. After I quit next year I will only have 3 years of experience.

There are some LTL jobs that are drop and hook buy they only pay 35k a year.

Being a blue collar guy sucks. There's no "skill shortages". It's a fucking lie to try to lure in more fresh meat. When someone says "we need more welders" they mean "wah, I can't find welders willing to work for ten bucks an hour and a bronze health plan".

There's all sorts of shady seasonal layoffs, under the table work, forced travel, and weird hours in the blue collar world(your boss doesn't give a shit if you fall asleep behind the wheel on your way home or have no social life).

Oh, and have fun competing with all the people who are getting laid off from their oil jobs in the Midwest.

Yes I have very good benefits, along with a 2015 international.

The reason I cant do much physical work is because of my ankle and back. When I was 19 I got hit by a car and had injuries. I can do some physical stuff but I cant do it day in and day out for weeks on end like my friends explain.

If I want a local job I will have to get a seasonal dump truck job, a season snow plow job, a fuel delivery job, or a LTL job.

Dump truck and LTL dont pay much and fuel/snow plow require a lot of experience.

Maybe I will go be a garbage man, my city only uses those garbage bins that require the arm to come out from the garbage truck, no more hands on garbage cans.

>It's a fucking lie to try to lure in more fresh meat
people quit, retire, and are fired, they need some rotation. it doesnt always mean theyre lowering the bar, a company's best asset (in terms of at least somewhat skilled labor) is not so much how low he'll bid but how secure of a hire he is

Too many feels in this thread, though somewhat comforting I am not the only one going through similar circumstances.

31, cyborg. Left job and its 8 year career history because reasons. Mostly cause the pay was poor, I hated it so much and was having health problems. Had to move back with parents and have been here for several months. Completely losing my mind because it's a small shit town I so desperately tried to escape. Luckily I saved up money so I can pay some bills for several more months.

Not sure what to do anymore. Local job market is terrible and has been well before the economy tanked in 2008. Only had skill sets for one particular job and now I can no longer get hired doing much of anything else. Don't even want to deal with women at this point, even more so because now I'm like George Constanza.

Hair is slowly falling out and I'm losing hope daily. Want to die in sleep but keep waking up the next day. I wouldn't wish this existence on my worst enemies. Get old sucks, bros. Enjoy your 20's while you still can cause I wasted mine.

havent read a single comment yet, and my first time ever on robot, which i hear is a pitiful place (was just curious.)
joined the navy 1 year ago at 27, now 28 and finishing photo journalism and videography course for navy, go to San Diego in one month.
previously was half/half a restaurant server/personal fitness trainer. Made easily 3x the money then, but the benefits in military are good, plus I wanted to be something more than a waiter/gym employee before I was 30 and had kids.
Seeing the most wonderful girl here now in Maryland, but she's younger than me (20) and I leave to San Diego soon. Would really want it to work out, I would marry her, but she's so young, there's way too much ahead of her. It probably won't work out, oh well- such is life.

In my future is mostly shooting photos and writing stories for my ship, a flagship aircraft carrier, and soon enough deploying to travel the ocean blue for 9 months with those same duties but with more vigor.

Can't really complain.

Its ok.

I will most likely just NEET around for 6 months and get healthy during that time.

Then most likely do a LTL drop and hook job for a year or two to get my experience up to where I can get a fuel delivery job.

OTR has been fun but its just getting to me now. This winter has been retarded, California and Colorado requiring chains when the roads are clear. Hell I was doing donner pass on I80 in california and they were requiring chains, it was raining out and it was 38 degrees out.

That and just too many retarded people driving cars that know nothing about the road.

>>25856339
been there done that. That's what led me to pursuing jobs that payed me well and saying "fuck you" to school. And why I ended up joining the Navy. (im the navy fag from above.) im telling you, people give me shit all the time because it seems like im always trying to recruit, but I just love the options and benefits- contact an Air Force or Navy recruiter (NOT MARINES OR ARMY FUCK THAT GAY SHIT.) They have so many options- sometimes they just agree to pay for all your schooling, lodging, and even give you a paycheck, as long as you agree to become an officer for X amount of years afterwards. And being an officer is the absolute shit. Seriously, being an officer in the armed forces is like being an upper level executive in a company- you are immediately in charge of enlisted and work in an administrative or research capacity in your field. Officer Candidate School is no joke though- way harder than bootcamp. Longer and with alot more studying. They want officers to be intelligent and dedicated.

navy dude yet again... wtf this whole board is fucking depressing. Ok, first off- military is way better off for all of youg ys. Second- I went out and got jobs as a waiter and personal trainer. Granted both require some level of charisma, but a waiter at a decent spot (which anyone can work up to after a couple years) netted me $150 to $400 a night ,for a 5 hour shift, and personal training was anywhere from $20 to $80 an hour... and before you say personal training requires some impossible level of fitness, you need to realize fitness simply = basic biochemistry + biomechanics, which is easily easily easily researchable on the internet- then you simply apply it, and use your body as marketing.... These may be poor examples, but anyone who has drive and can think well enough should be able to net more than what you guys are.. Its like you need something linear like "go to school. take class. get degree. get job in field." to even process... Just think outside the box and apply yourselves. I was earning more than you guys with NO degree

way to nihilism, friend. Anyways, us Active Duty think reservists are fucking scum. Active Duty has rewards for consequence and work. That's what you want. Anyone (nearly, just dont admit to anything medical or psychological or anything- most the people in the military are actually totally aspbergers autist weirdos, never seen so much NEET shit, just dont admit to shit until youre out of boot) can join, and then youre introduced to a very simple promotion system based on merit and work ethic, and if youre in enough years everyone is paid well and gets all the benefits. it really is the easiest way to a guaranteed good life. but you will have to pay in some way or another.

The thing is that I /want/ to go to school. I'd rather be there than at a a shitty job. At least there I feel like what I'm doing actually matters to someone because I'm also a tutor. I'm that crazy freak that actually enjoys math.

I will be fair and say that I have put a lot of thought about the military, but I'm flat foot, colorblind, and very overweight. Frankly, I doubt I'd pass any mental health exam, too, but I did get a 92 on my ASVAB, so there's that. I made a lot of recruiters very sad that year.

most i made in one year of purely serving tables was $65k. none if it I had when I found that out of course, it all went to coke and pot and bitches. I have no records or anything, I don't know what you want me to say? That year I worked somewhere where the average plate was $20 to $30, and the average table was 4. That usually meant at least 1 bottle of wine- which is where charisma comes into play: If youre boring and leave them to their own devices they may have a good time, they may not. If you're a fucking riot and strike a personal chord early on the environment becomes more hospitable-seeming to them and they start enjoying themselves more. That means more appetizers, more bottles of wine, more time sticking around talking to you- more drinks, and then hopefully a dessert. That should net you at the very fucking least $200, 20% of which is $40. you are juggling 5 to 6 of these tables at once, lasting about an hour give or take each, before its flipped and you're re-sat on each. So thats generally let's say $200 an hour.... Although it doesn't ever work out that way. Some people tip shit even if you're great, some people sit too long- which is fine. It's not applebees, youre not trying to flip too much. You want to create regulars who request you by name. High end service is just as much entertainment as it is food/wine/beer knowledge, and also working well and making fast connections with the cooks and bussers and runners, and all sorts of other shit.
Either way you can work your way into these kinds of places/situations starting at applebees or wherever. Just work you way up and always apply somewhere better every year.

im telling you bro, don't admit to the flat foot or colorblind. Seriously its that easy. If dont say your flat foot, no one calls you out on it. I remember my colorblind test at MEPS, the guy was in a hurry and was like "what do you see?" sort of, and I told him I couldnt hear him and he was rushing, and he just pushed me through. They dont actually give a fuck.
As far as the overweight- 1. get on top of that, its not hard, its just something you should do if you want to be worth a damn 2. that could have alot to do with your energy and general demeanor and shit. That's your health bro, if you let a house go to shit, you wouldn't want to live in it. Well that's your body homie, get to fixing that shit up.

I wish it were that easy, man. I've lived a life of depression that is now getting complicated by hypothyroid that I can't afford to treat. I envy people who are capable of such passion, because have never felt it. Whether or not you choose to believe me though, I tried. I really did, but even a wildfire needs more than a cold stone to continue burning. Eventually, it runs out of fuel and leaves the rock behind, and the rock is no better than before the fire.

I wouldn't last long in boot camp or officers school, anyway. I'm too pig headed and ask too many questions. I need reasons beyond getting constantly yelled at and reprimanded. The whole idea is to break you, right? I know I'd just an hero before then.

32, still live at home, decent job, cute gf

I cant take any of these things to the next level because im "that guy" that no one likes.

Pleasant, competent, quiet. I can never fit in at any job and live in constant fear of being fired for poor fit, and stress due to openly hostile coworkers who dont respect or support me.

The shittiest part of getting old is realizing that its all just survival of the fittest. In an office environment, this means being a brown nosing bully, and there is absolutely no room for an introverted beta male unable to charm or impress the stereotypically alpha male company bigshots.

"Culture fit" is the buzzword of modern employment, and from what ive seen its far more important than work ethic or ability.

career crashed, love left me/nonexistant, living with my mother and sister.

No quiet, timid, virgin, reasonably attractive woman wants a fat, old, virgin male nerd/vidya type who would actually love, cherish, and appreciate her. And the ones that do would never reciprocate that love; just use me for what little money i had then divorce me.

why does life have to hurt so much, why do i have to be alone? why does everything have to end in failure for me?
>>
>>25860801

Most interviews theyre just trying to determine if they like you on a personal level. In a "can we be friends with this guy" sort of way.

This leads to extreme cronyism and an environment that is hostile as fuck to beta males, introverts, or really anyone who truly thinks out of the box.

Im not sure what youre trying to tell me... impress coworkers by taking out a mortgage?

Honestly, my main issue seems to be that in every job ive had a bully who was out to get me, either overtly or covertly.

The last one was just a ruthless openly hostile fucker, but this one is a behind the scenes character-assassination type. Its pretty clear in my current gig theres someone with an agenda to kick me out, but im not sure exactly who.

I cant last much more than a year at any job because of this shit. How do people find workplaces that arent filled with these types of bullies?

Nope. There's plenty of cases of people reinventing themselves in the 30s and 40s. Those cases are the minority because it gets harder and harder with each year. Not impossible. Most quit without trying thinking it's too late. They keep telling themselves that and then 20 years later they realize it might not have been had they tried.

With parents. This is mainly because I was helping them stay afloat until their workers comp cases and social security disability gets granted to them.

Bad thing is that I got laid off from the same job I've been working for the last 4 years 6 months ago. I've been having trouble looking for a job and those bills are catching up.

Just wait. If you arent really cool, attractive, or talented, then you'll have to work like the rest of us, handing over your destiny to the kind of alpha men and women who likely bullied you in school or ignored you thereafter. Your likability, as judged by the douchiest of douchebags, will be of utmost importance.

Assuming you dont just come to R9K to troll, im thinking that you score low in likability, attractiveness, and talent. The adult world is a nightmare, unless youre the kind of person who has never had any sort of interpersonal struggles.

26, minimum wage job, living with my parents

Not a KV, I'm female so it was easy to check those off. But it turns out I don't like sex or relationships. I'm starting to look less kawaii than I did when I was younger, which is fine but now I am bracing for the incoming "bad female aging" and osteoperosis.

My parents are encouraging me to go back to college, which is nice. I dropped out when I was 22 because I was too autist too handle it. Grade wise I had a 4.0 because I was taking some dumb social studies type classes (russian culture, greek mythology, latin amerian history, shakespeare etc.) to fulfill some general ed requirement. But socially I couldn't hack walking around and having to talk to so many people all the time. I moved out and lived with my bf for a while. He and I had dated for 7 years and broke up 2 months ago.

I think I could take college now. After working in retail for years, I have developed a bit thicker skin and now that I am in my late 20's I feel like I don't really give a shit what people younger than me are doing and I would feel pretty free to tell them to stop talking to me if I am feeling bovvered. Pretty excited for that college life, I really want to take some interesting classes and get out of minimum wage, although I have no idea if it will actually happen.

This. Life always felt surreal for me past puberty, but I felt some kind of self-righteousness in doing my own thing and keeping to myself. Experience has dulled a bit of that edge and now the only things that feel real are the loan repayments and insurance fees and my car lease payments. I'm more alone than I've ever been in my life and it's hard to see that changing, even though I try my best to stay healthy now that my back and knees aren't what they were ten years ago. I was never Chad at 20 and I'll never be Chad at 30. I don't lead a blessed life, but it could be worse. I suppose you just sort of tread water and try to do the right thing and be a good person moment to moment. That's what keeps me sane and lets me live with myself day to day. In the end, I hope that's good enough.

Anon, if you feel bad, at least you are not me.

I'm 32 years old. I live with my mom who has cancer. I working in a shit tier minimum wage job. I'm a handholdless etc virgin. Nobody ever loved me. My mom only puts up with me because she knows it is mostly her fault I turned out like this. I'm fat and ugly. I could go on with the usual machildish problems but even if you read this I bet you don't care.

You know people always view men in their late 20's hooking up with teenagers as creepy or predatory but in my case it's just desperation and complete lack of self-worth, if anything they're using me. How pathetic is that, getting toyed with by teenagers. They've all definitely been smarter and more well adjusted than me. Anyway here's hoping I die soon.

It's about attitude, man. The first thing you learn when you enter the "real world" is that it doesn't exist. Beyond showing up at the appropriate times and paying what you owe, nobody cares what else you do with your time. That is entirely on you. It is also entirely on you how you choose to view your situation. I've seen dudes selling steak knives act cockier than teenagers because they see it as a road to bigger and better things. I've seen dudes making 65K a year beg death to take them because they feel trapped. Experience shapes your perceptions less than you might assume, but it is easy to get caught in a rut and imitate those around you. You have to have a decent plan and set goals, the sooner in life the better. You also need to learn how to ask for help from the right people. Life flourishes in some truly shitty and godforsaken places on this planet. If it can, you certainly can too.

I'm 20, three years into a shitty university (in Europe) with a shitty performance so far. I received a honorific mention because I was the best student to get into my degree in my university. Since then, for external reasons, I've plummeted to the bottom. Now I want to drop out of my degree and start another one because I need a fresh start. Also, I'd change university for a better one.

On the other hand, I'm not a virgin, had a gf for 2.5 years and I don't have to pay for university. I guess my overall situation is not that bad. If I start a new degree now I will be 24-25 when I finish it.

Not him but I had to take care of and support my mother after her divorce. From 21 - 25 I was basically a write off as a human being because I essentially became her surrogate husband. And she doesn't even have cancer. She's just dumb, lazy and lives beyond her means and I felt bad for her. I'm 30 and a fully functioning adult now but I get kinda mad when I think about how much she held me back during that period. Not gonna lie, she did do a lot for me and that's probably why I felt obligated to support her for those years. I suppose in a way realizing you were the one taking care of your parent made me grow up quickly in a short span of time so for that I should be thankful.

It's alright, I live by myself and I'm a database administrator. Makes good money and I enjoy the work.

I'm pretty happy all things considered. All my old friends from high school and college are divorced or getting divorced and paying alimony or child support and hating life.

I literally had to explain to him that he is 70 and that if he extends this loan he will have been in debt for most of his life but also die in debt leaving his children nothing and have nothing to show for it. keep in mind that this guy was a school counselor and he was fucked before his stroke and heart attack.

Yes, I guess it's not that bad. In perspective, I'm barely starting my life as an adult. When I finish my new degree (if my father accepts this decision, since he's the one who's gonna pay) I'll still be young and I will have opportunities.

>>25861654
That was some real talk, femanon. Respect. I did mostly the same when I was an undergrad (bullshit classes, high GPA) to the point that I didn't major in what I would have actually liked to. The courses were too rigorous and the heavy schedule would have driven me insane, having no social life to counterbalance it and all. Ended up doing grad school to put off the inevitable, but I feel like I'm going through the motions at this point. I've felt like an opportunistic impostor for a while and wonder how I ended up here all the time. It seems really surreal.

The worst was when I moved to campus and into my new apartment. For a month, I woke up in my bed expecting to be somewhere else. I would panic a bit and have to remind myself where I was and why I was there and that I was ok. Even amongst the grad students, there are so many chads and stacies who continue to do what chad and stacy did in high school and college, just with a bit more foresight and maturity. They schmooze like hell and I can already see it paying off for them. I've tried to do the same, But it just comes off weird and aimless. I thought I would finally fit in for once in my life. I don't. Even in a fucking PhD program.

I get what you say. I know I'm smart, but I've had problems with the way university works where I live. I've seen really dumb people pass courses I couldn't pass because they're used to memorise a list of problems and then solve those same problems in the test. That's how it works here, at least: professors take 4-5 problems out of the whole problem set (which we've solved through the year) and then you solved those problems to get your grades. But I can't do that because you don't learn shit that way. I've head people with half a chemistry degree fight over how vapor pressure works. Plus, my university is shit, and if I start a new degree I'll have to go to another university, live with some friends as flatmates and have a fresh start. I'm going to promise my father that this will be the last year he's going to have to pay for my education.

That fucking sucks, m8. I've been there too. Because of a family thing, I got really good tuition at a so-so university (I could have done better). As a result, I stuck around home way too much and played referee between my mom and dad, going out to dinner with them every Friday. Maybe a movie on Saturday. Pick up the house a bit on Sunday. Were I not there, I wasn't sure I would have a home to go back to and I was always too much of a pussy to tell them to get fucked. In a fucked up way, I almost felt they were being nice to me by letting me kick around at home. It wasn't until I left and my mom and dad began calling me all the time without the others' knowledge that I got what was up. They had used me as a fucking backstop for years, certainly since my older sister moved out.

My dad just had a stroke because he's older and, quite frankly, he's having to put up with my mom's shit no holds barred. Now she's trying to get all holier than thou about caring for him and telling my sister and I to not be so "critical of him." Kek. She's projecting so hard now I feel like popping popcorn and selling tickets. I feel bad for my dad, but at the same time am just disappointed with both of them. If I ever meet somebody, I am seriously tempted to lie and say my parents are dead.

>I've come to hate traffic more than women at this point

This. There is a point where day to day hassles almost let me forget the fact that I'm alone. I'm often not sure if I should be grateful or resentful of that. Of course, there are always the occasional bouts of extreme loneliness and need for companionship. Experience them enough and you realize that they pass and are likely the result of responding subconsciously to something you saw/watched/played. Going screens dark for a few days and exercising tends to help me through the worst of it.

I've turned my life around after I gave doctors the flick. check out Ray Peat, broad Barnes, Danny roddy, raypeatforum

Just turned 26 last week, work in telemarketing because im too dumb to get my diploma. Friens are finishing school, buying houses getting kids etc. Im renting and my freetime goes to gaming and tv-shows. Had a shitload of one night stands but never a gf. Becuse im socially retarded. Always felt like a young soul who had all the time in the world. But now i suddenly feel too old and its too late...

>not killing yourself at 25
You're either a normie or a pussy.
>>
>>25863058
Because some people never learn that the grass is always greener on the other side, always. Rich people are not immune to this. Also, you can't be serious that teen pussy is off the table at a certain age. Hell give those bitches some make up and costume jewelry and they're dripping. Really, you really think you cant get that teen pussy especially with money at any age. kek

>money will make me happy
pathetic
>>
>>25863423
If sex makes you happy, you do know that women sell it right? If relationship makes you happy, you do know women sell that right? Money can literally buy you anything but immortality, yet. With money you could also buy these things called drugs to forget your sex and or wife is bought. The best part about buying them too is you have more of a choice. there is a wide variety of women paying student loans etc. and it almost doesn't matter one bit the type of person you are.

>probably still have 4 years until I get my masters
As long as I can keep my tutoring job, things will probably be fine. I seriously fucked up by working in an office for four years which was hell, but fresh out of high school I had no idea what to do and my parents thought it would make me more social. It didn't.

>>25863486
I don't care about sex
women are bitches who will never love you for you
I've been on drugs before. It's better to go without them

all I need are basic things. Like food, transportation, health, and of course entertainment via vidya or socializing, etc

25 next week. Live at home happily. Go to Starbucks then dog park every day with dog. NEET but shipping out to the Navy in 7 months. Trying to sign up to drive uber in the mean time. Dad takes me out to eat all the time. Have zero bills and about $400 left. Gonna go back to college to meet girls and get a higher pay grade when I ship out. Working out, browsing 4chan, playing tf2.

It's not bad. Not sure what I'll do if Navy falls through. Life's not pleasant as a 24 year old with low education and lousy work history. Fingers crossed!
>>
29, no job, khv, not even a driving license because I'm afraid to drive

My life was pretty much good until college, then I lost all my friends, never made new ones, started suffering from social anxiety and life has been the same boring shit for the past five years.

>I just want to go back to these days when life was all about pogs, hi-tops, watching Clarissa Explains It All, going trick-or-treating with neighborhood friends and listening to the radio all day long
>>
>>25863408

You can never replicate or pay for the unique, once in a lifetime experience that is being a teenager and getting prime teen pussy. There is nothing like it and every single person who ever experienced it would give up everything to go back and experience it all over again. Paying for it when you can afford an 18 year old isn't comparable
>>
Major thing for my job is coming up in a few weeks was moved ahead of schedule. I'm really concerned about it.

26 here,

>career
Quality control chemist. It's a fun and stable job, no complaints here

>love
Been single and without sex for 8 months now. I'm starting to believe that my ideal gf, one who is simply introverted, white and thin will always be barely within my reach, feels bad man.

I've had gf's before but they were all frumpy and/or gained weight through the course of the relationship. I'm afraid if I manage to marry, my wife will be no different.

>Living
Have almost 10k saved up and live with parents, I want to relocate somewhere eventually but have no idea where

26
realized im better off alone so not looking for gf
been battling depression/anxiety the last 2 years so basically done nothing
don't care about having fun anymore, have chats with close friends sometimes though

i have no degree, no plan, no idea what i want, i hate the normie lifestyle and don't want it
i have some self-taught skills in coding/art but im terrified of the idea of getting a job (probably couldnt cause nothing on cv, and too anxious) and think id rather kill myself than be forced to wageslave every day the same shit.

all options to me seem bleak, so i waste every day at my parents. i have no idea what im gonna do really. nothing seems worth the effort - dunno if thats me or depression..

I'm noticeably hotter than when i was younger, taller too (6'4), but my face stills ruins everything.

It's been two years since i realized that and i still can't fucking get over it, fuck.

I'm turning 27 and I'm hating every moment of it. I wasted my 20s being a lazy neet stoner. Then I spent the later half of my 20s in and out of psych hospital due to psych drug withdrawals. I get crazybux, and I'm taking 15 units starting tomorrow. I live with my retired mom, bro, and gf that wants to move out. If I wasn't in school this house would be full of depressed neets
>>
>>25865757

How can you be taller anon?

You stop growing; at most by 22
>>
27, live with parent, no license, virgin.
i work graveyard and don't have a cell phone or a facebook, having a social life isn't an easy thing for me, even with the tools.

i don't know what to do or where to go and i'm too afraid to go up to people i don't know and start talking to them, especially women.

something scared me back into my shell, i think it was my friends dying too rapidly, i'm traumatized but i don't want that to be the answer because then no one will want to deal with a burden.

This thread is inspiring stuff. Honestly I am not where I really want to be long term. I don't want to dig a bigger hole for myself as I go into my mid-20s. Going to write goals on a piece of paper and stick it on my wall. Don't want to end up pathetic.
>>
>>25866575

GTFO here normie faggot. It's 25+
>>
>>25865885
I grew up like a motherfucker from 18 to 22 years old. When i say "younger", i say back when i was 20 years old.

It's nice and all being tall, but shit if i wish i had a better face. Plus, i'm doing virtually everything i can to improve, nice clothes, lifting weights four times a week, got my ears pinned back, got a lazy eye fixed, got my teeth checked, but it seems it's just never enough. It's just never enough, i can't bypass that fucking genetics dice.
>>
>>25863486
It's not about sex and that's what you retards need to understand.

It's about being desirable. Every single man wants to feel desirable at one point in his life, and that shit just doesn't happen to us. That's where all the problems come from, even if some aren't aware of it. This is the root of depression.

I gave up on finding anyone in my 20s a long time ago. Everyone I know is married and missabrle. So I'll wait until my 30s and find some broken guy and be a stepmom.

Kinda anon, I have a good job, my own apartment and car. I've managed to work out the basics of shit like cooking, cleaning, budgeting, clothing, hobbies etc.

>What's your career, love, living situation like?
career: grinding my way up the IT chain, currently level 3 support. pays well enough and the work is interesting.
love: i want to try and meet people but something is always holding me back.
living: have my own 2x1 apartment that i love. at first living alone was terrible but its so good now.

I miss living alone. Sadly I've doomed myself with my mother moving in for medical reasons.

If you want to be a qc chemist or tech, just get a STEM degree. I see lots of openings that even ask for no more than a HS diploma.

25, accountant. Bores me to tears but it's tolerable and I make good money, minimal soicial interaction. I'll never "move up the ladder", open up my own firm, etc, because I'm a social retard with mental issues. Just trudging away saving up money until I have enough to go semi-off the grid and move out to the mountains where I'll live off the land and my savings until I decide to kill myself

Going it to end it soon.
I'm old enough to know there are no 'wizard' powers unless you pooled in shitloads of hard work.
>>
>>25868614
Got something you always wanted to do but held off? Do it. I'm 32 and I know I can never leave to backpack a country because I have to care for other people now. I can't leave the state for a new job because I need to care for a sick family member. I can't do panio lessons because that money can be used in my savings account just in case my dumbass 3 year old jumps off of another thing and breaks his arm again.

almost 28
I don't know who I am anymore
I don't have a degree
I don't have a job
I don't have any money
I'm recovering from a health ruining opiates addiction
I recognize that I could have many possibilities in my life yet I lack the will to do anything
I sit on my ass almost all day
Only thing that saves me in this situation is that I currently have a very nice loving gf

An old family friend once said to me
>You will suceed in everything that you will want do
problem is: I have a crippling laziness that sabotes me in everything I want to do

Part of the issue is that on the internet I can be really mean to girls and they love me for it and send me pictures of themselves with their clothes off too. In real life I'm generally nice to girls and they don't like me much.
