Does therapy really work or is it just a meme?
I'm very directionless in life and don't know what to do. I don't have friends, a meaning in life, passions or hobbies. im at home 99% of the time.
Will therapy help me or is it just a normie meme? is it just a place to vent or will my issues be solved?
>>17122345
no therapy doesn't help. no other person can give you the will to live, they can't give you the meaning of life, and they can't guide you to satisfying and fulfilling hobbies. they are money sucking leeches that pretend to care about you.
Only you can help yourself. There just saved you some money.
>>17122345
Well for starters, it is somewhat of a meme.
>normie meme
Now that's just retarded.
However, I understand what you mean.
It still is. People presume therapy is a magic cure for depression and shit. For your problem, I think you can solve it yourself. It took me 3 years to find out my path, and no therapy was needed.
Meaning in life is something you'll just find someday, which there's none, but to make something out of nothing is an achievement in itself.
Friends aren't a requirement, but are fun to have. You'll naturally get some as time passes.
Passions and hobbies are like life-meaning, you just find them out eventually. Although it's much faster to find those out than the meaning of life.
For example, I box as a hobby. If not boxing, I try and learn how to dance. I also manage a garden while doing the former 2. As for passion, I'm still finding that out, but my goal to be a desk worker at a phone company has been met.
Point is, therapy is worthless and >>17122352
has the right idea.
What can I do with a nursing degree other than nursing? Can't really afford further study right now. I'm UK based. What are my options? Been trying to find decent paying jobs that take any degree but so far no luck
>>17122336
well what the fuck were you thinking? that's like saying i got an accounting degree but I don't want to be an accountant, or I went to the police academy but I don't want to be a police officer, or I got a phd in dentistry but I don't want to be a dentist, or I dropped out of middle school but I don't want to be a loser
WHAT DID YOU THINK WOULD HAPPEN?
>>17122374
I know, mum.
>>17122374
You raise some good points. All I can say is I thought it would be better once starring work as an actual nurse. I was wrong. I also wanted to see what I started through. Anyway here I am. So have you actually got anything to contribute? Sadly I can't undo the past
Its happening again. I got the girl I wanted for so long, but now that she's mine, I'm losing interest.
Why does this happen, I wanted her so badly. Does this happen to any of you too?
pic unrelated
you liked your idea of her, not HER. now that you get to know her, your enthusiasm is faiding.
also, you are only in for the hunt. you wanted her only as a accomplishement. "arm candy", so to speak. that's never really going to cut it
>>17122324
Is it possible you wanted the idea of being with her as opposed to actually wanting to be with her? Am I even making any sense here?
>>17122330
Yeah you do make some sense. But I don't know, she is nice and attractive and I would think about her a lot, I liked the idea of being with her, but something is off and it just doesn't feel the same.
>>17122329
I think you might be right here
i done got wasted last night and passed out in my own puke the first thing i see in the morning is my phone screen with a sent message over facebook to a girl proclaiming my love for her what do?
javascript:quote('17122188');
>>17122285
i don't know what happened.
however,
you own up to having been drunk out of your mind and also own up to the fact that drunk texting holds some truth and that you'd like to ask her out on a date
>>17122283
Why exactly can't you just move on?
You have a crush on her? She's a long-time friend? She's a coworker? More info please. If isn't anything special just leave it, bro. Shit like that happens all the time.
Got dumped yesterday
Already one match on tindudes but I want a decent haircut.
What is undoubtedly the sexiest haircut I could have to pull ladies???
>>17122266
Forget the haircut. Your head is on sideways.
i don't see what i'm working with properly. do you have a less slicked back pic so i can see the lengths and body of your hair?
>>17122280
Yeah!!!
>it's an "Anon mentally replays every interaction he's had all week over and over and reinterprets everything everyone said and did in the worst possible light" episode
Why won't everyone just outright reject me already? Why do they have to pretend to like me just to give me false hope?
>>17122225
Basic social graces dictate that we jump through hoops to 'say without saying,' because if you're direct about disliking somebody, you usually look like a retarded asshole
>>17122249
How far does that have to go, though? Is it really necessary to accept my invitations and act like friends? They're not even giving me normal hints, I only realize this shit a week later after replaying it a hundred times and analyzing everything
>>17122225
Stop being so negative you doofus. Focus on improving your interactions with people.
Not everyone hates you, that is just you assuming the worst.
How can I find my purpose in life when I dont even have dreams?
you accept that your purpose in life is shitposting on 4chan and jerking it to futa
>>17122209
Just be yourself
we don't have a purpose in life
you were lied to as a child
we just exist, we aren't here for anything or any purpose. You get to set your goals and acheive them but don't think there is a god watching you, and don't think you are 'meant for something' because that's a lie.
>be male
>extremely emotional
>feel intensively lonely
>come close to tears and hate myself when i am shunned from others
>find it difficult to control my anger at videogames
>become extremely judgemental of people
>24 years old and its only maybe gone down to 80% of how bad it was in my teenaged years
How do I stop living like this? I'm waiting to go to school right now and I am completely NEET except for friends who I have on skype and self study, but I am going more and more insane by the day.
How much do you masturbate?
>>17122207
Pretty much every night
>>17122230
thats the point i think, same problem here
Anyone here smokes weed?
Is smoking weed bad?
it's not bad but smoke only with good friends and do it with good attidute in comfy safe place
You know that meme about vegans announcing their veganism at every opportunity? Weedfags started that.
Your grandma must be so disappointed.
Just don't make a lifestyle out of it. People who do end up as losers.
Guys... I feel so empty and dead inside. How I can get rid of this fking depression?
Pills and therapy, but say goodbye to your libido
>>17122158
This.
...or you can end it all.
>>17122163
What's the best way?
>be with gf
>she dumps me in february
>it still hurts as fuck
>see on her facebook walls posts from begining of march adressed to her new bf
>"I love you honey" and shit like that
I'm mad as fuck and depressed
how to I get over this?
>>17122136
Stay away from her Facebook page and generally avoid her as much as possible.
>>17122136
dont read ex's facebook...its always going to be a disaster. The first thing i do with ex's is delete every point of contact. You are always going to find something you dont like if you snoop around.
>>17122136
> 1st come to terms that it's over
> Breifly forget she ever existed.
*unfriend her/block all contact
*delete any photos, memories
*make sure you never see her again/work with her
>begin self improvement journey
> read, Biz, Fashion, and Fitness
> find passion
> let 2-3 year evolution begin
> become happy with yourself & accept yourself
> suddenly notice pussy, money and respect pouring from every direction.
>more and more people respond to my reasonable and coherent posts with confusion and bewilderment
What's going on
you are buying into questionable mindsets
>>17122126
Chances are that you are not as reasonable and coherent as you think.
You're freakin' nutty my man
It happens
Remember Israeli assasins are trying to kill you, dont leave your room
I have a single small pimple lookin flesh-colored bump on my scrotum, there is no other bumps or anything anywhere else on my genitals except for that one. I was pretty worried it was genital warts so I looked up some images on google but none of them really look like this. The images on google look all crusty and shit mines pretty much just a round little pimple thing, at first I thought it was an ingrown hair but theirs no way to pop it. It could have formed out of a rash or something from having a sweaty ballsack but it's been there for a few days so idk. Can anyone give any educated guesses on what it might be?
I'm getting tested sometime this week just gotta check my schedule for next time I'm off, but still it's bothering me and I wanna know now.
I wanna know this too!
Then again, I am op..
I get those from time to time, Just a pimple deep under the skin.
>>17122106
It looks like Amata.
Is a CS degree worth it if you're a sperg that can't network well?
>Having a degree about going Long A and making sure you plant for long so you can AWP the defusing CT
>>17122035
Just dont be sperg/autismo in the interview ans youll be ok
>>17122035
learning how to network would make mostly anything degree more useful OP, it's how you get employers to hire you.
>be me
>be a permavirgin
>be not able to buy one urself cuz of laws
>have no friends who would help u
How do I asky parents for a fleshlight? I will never losey virginity but I at least wanna know what pussy feels like. I'm so sick of jerking off it makes me feel like crap. :( how do I get my family to buy me 1?
Lose my* fucking phone keyboard.
Why can't you buy one youeself? How old are you?
>>17122007
Ask them for a hooker first. If they say no, back it down to a fleshlight. It'll seem much more reasonable by comparison.
