If I want to get laid in general but can't that's fine

Take one large dose of man the fuck up.


Just think, your great grandfather was on a transport boat going into normandy bay shitting his pants knowing he is probably going to die soon and yet he had the grit to get it done. You're sitting at home obsessing over the girl that happens to always be a cashier at mcdonalds when you go in for your daily quarter lber. This is a simple case of manning the fuck up IMO

people seem to think that 'dealing' with an emotional issue means making it disappear. its not. we live in a time where people think theres some magical method that makes them go back to being complacently happy, there's not.

dealing with something means accepting it and dealing with the consequences, not making consequences disappear

So how should I be dealing? What am I not doing that I should be? Why don't other people seem to have these issues?

dealing is not a series of tasks., it is the task. you take your bullshit and you sort it out.

>take your bullshit and sort it out

That seems a little vague honestly. If I knew exactly what to do to accept and move on this wouldn't be a issue.

You suffer when reality doesn't align with the things that you want.

Solution: Get better at getting what you want, or stop wanting stupid shit.

AKA stop being needy, and sort yourself out.

>that seems a little vague honestly

thats almsot exactly what i said. there is no 'tasks' that you check off and say 'there i dealt with it'.

its a personal intrinsic thing. like dealing with alcholism. you're never NOT an alcoholic, you dont stop craving it. you just deal with those cravings by NOT giving in.

Well where do I ever fucking start. My heads such a fucking mess all the time. I've been on anxiety meds for about a month and a half and they help a bit, but living a normal life and actually being to function like a normal fucking human being seems impossible. College has been the worst fucking time of my life. I've lost 30 pounds from what I can only assume is constant stress acting like a fucking meat tenderizer on my body. I feel completely unfulfilled and inferior to everyone around me. I feel completely lost and I don't know what to fucking do

stop looking at everything as hopeless. MAke a list of all the shit you need to get done, and break that down into smaller tasks. As small as you can basically. Then start tackling those small tasks. Don't fantasize and dread about how insurmountable everything is, just break it down and get to work.
