What the fuck to do in this life?
18 yo guy, good looks, 5.0 gpa starting premed this year.
Inside I just feel emptiness and weariness. I can't be happy from anything, I just feel complete lack of motivation. Money and status doesn't motivate me, the most I feel towards girls is indifference, I don't feel I can trust my friends I just feel aimless, sad, annoyed, and without purpose.
Tell me /adv/ what to do in this life?

You might find the fulfilment you're looking for by getting out of the academic education rat race and taking on a more friendly career working with your hands, in a field like carpentry. When you can take pride in the results of a job well done, you'll have a warmer outlook on life.

This is part of life OP. You'll have some lows but as you get over them more and more you'll become a stronger happier person. What you are feeling is normal.

Congratulations on doing so well in school. My biggest tip would be to try to find was to enjoy what you are studying. If you are in stem then read or watch related things outside of school that are interesting and inspire you. Chemistry is pretty cool, physics is pretty cool, biology and math are pretty cool...there's got to be something in there that gets you up every morning excited to learn.

Ask her on a date.

this. no reason not to
>>
>>16799112
Not OP, but... I can think of a pretty good reason.

You don't want to make things awkward. I'm constantly in this position, and I don't want asking someone on a date to mess up a friendship. If I can't date them, I still want to be in contact with them. I only ever ask someone out if I for sure know that they are interested in me, which has only allowed me to actually pursue two girls even though I'm 19. Besides that, I'm a pussy and fuck things up with being too scared to actually try to make even the smallest of moves. It took a lot of courage to even attempt to hold hands with a gril. I always say to myself I won't fuck up like that again, but it's way easier to say that I won't do it than to actually not do it.

>19 in college
>little brother is 15
>go home
>little brother's room reeks of weed
I havent had any freinds or anything in a long time so I have no experience with this. Worse i've been posting on 4chan for years so my worldview is super warped (spent the superbowl looking for subtle anti-white messages in the ads, found some too) but ultimately I know nothing about drugs outside of alchohol.
Is it really that bad that he smokes weed? Is the normalization of weed something worthless stoners push to make themselves feel better? Or is it really okay to smoke weed time and again?
His grades seem fine. He's playing football. He has freinds. But it makes me super nervous he's doing drugs in his fucking room. He listens to rap too.

What the hell should I do?

Anyway, no, it's ok OP. Just make sure it's only weed.
>>
>he listens to rap too

This is irrelevant.

As far as his health goes, its really not that bad. Unless he's doing it excessively like every day. It can become a mental addiction. Some people forget how to cope with things and become dependent on it. But that's fairly rare.

You really should be worried about the legal trouble he can get into. Assuming it's illegal wherever you live.
>>
>>16799085
Tell your parents. 15 is young for smoking, you don't want him to become a burnout. His brain is still developing and it can have an averse effect on him neurologically. Idc if adults smoke weed but substances are dangerous for children.

I score far above average on IQ tests compared to my peers, yet I feel dumber than most people because of how many stupid things I do and how many mistakes I make by just having my mind in other places.

Am I missing something or i just everyone not as smart as I might think sometimes?

Or is intelligence something that also fluctulates alot?

Some opinions on this would be appriciated, because I know we all think that were smarter than average, while we obviously cant be, which is of course our flawed perception and fallacies but I had some form of proof, multiple tests.

IQ is a poor measure of intelligence, it really only tests one limited subset of it.

Ultimately who gives a fuck.
>>
>>16799083

they say the deepest flaw with IQ is that it only gauges your ability to learn. the test doesn't expect an inherent knowledge, rather a way to take knowledge and use it as requested.

you have to remember that common sense, human interaction, and many other things arent IQ worthy.

if you sit there and study history every day, you are going to know a lot about history. but if you've never been to a bank, you're not going to know how an interest rate works or how to write a check or what have you.

I'm german high school student about to graduate. Should I study engineering or physics? I think I'd rather do the latter, but I'm worried about my future. How are the job prospects?

Any europeans here?

jup, austrian here. I think engineering has more job offers. It depends on what you want to do later and what you are interested in

Germany is overrun with graduate engineers and physicists looking for work. Get into a field with serious job demand, like carpentry.

Yeah, there's a few.
>>
>>16798992

yes, by countering them in a smart way. it requires whit. not everyone has it.

so you might need to sit down and think out something clever about that person that can be used. whats their flaw? whats their weakness?

girl i know used to be a horrifying twat. she stopped when i said 'thank god you miscarried, your kid would be miserable'.

Whiny teenager here.

I have this feeling that my life is in a warm, uncomfortable position, I'm not miserable but I'm not happy either, I'm in some dull place in the middle. I see all the hobbies I had as plain boring and I think TV shows and videogames have lost their joke and became predictable, just as most of my friends

I know the most effective way to get out of this situation is to wait until I become an adult and get my shit together, but I also think I'm letting an important time of my life slip away

I also think the best way I have to get out of the routine is to get a girlfriend or something, but I'm a 0/10 if I don't consider a slightly above average intelligence for my age and that I treat people well

Hahaha I won't try anything until I'm in my mid-twenties, when it's more likely that I'm clear-headed and I'm sure I'm a screwup

I just got done sabotaging my life. I canceled three job interviews I had this week (to be fair, one of them was for a position I did not even apply for and I was grossly underqualified anyway), and turned down the one job offer I got.

This is because I am having a particularly bad depressive episode today, and now I despise myself even more. I already go to college, and the thought of adding a job on top of that filled me with so much dread and anger I felt trapped. What makes me feel even worse is I know working and going to school at the same time is pretty much required in this modern age. It further made me feel like I have no control of my life and I can only do certain "appropriate" things on 1 linear path.

What do I do? I don't think this is healthy.

Stop trying to please mommy/daddy/grandma/grandpa/society/etc and just figure out what you're good at. It could be cleaning floors, it could be computer programming. Go do it. You're probably like 20, you're literally one of the most capable human beings on the planet right now.

Wah wah wah I have [insert one or more of the most commonly overdiagnosed "disorders" for millennials]. You don't have to tell me you're autistic when you're asking for this kind of advice on /adv/ and saying "kek". If you don't know what you're good at, no one else is going to tell you. It's entirely up to you. Figure it out instead of whining about being privileged enough to even be going to college or get job offers. Idiot.

Ok. This guy has recently contacted me that someone is doxxing him. He has gone onto this social media site (it's not 4chan, but plebbit) and he has seen in the subreddit for his city that someone has taken his name and is pretending to be him. They have been making posts bringing up facts about him such as false rape allegations and whatnot. He's really scared and it is a pretty worrisome thing, don't you think? They also know all of his actual social media usernames. I'll update when I learn more.
