Hello.
I dropped out of Med School and now I'm lost. I don't know what to do with my life. I'm not American. I'm 21 years old. I'm a civilian virgin (I've only fucked escorts, three times, and I couldn't get hard in the last one. It was horrible). I'm ugly: 3/10. I'm middle class and now I have huge loans to pay. I'm depressed, lack motivation, feel very dumb (even though theoretically I'm not, since I got into Med School.

What would you advise me to do? I've thought about studying Economics in the past, but then I gave up on the idea. I must admit that I didn't enjoy most of my classes in Med School and I felt like I wasn't really learning much, basically just cramming for exams and then forgetting 90% of what I read. The fact that I couldn't fit in as a normal guy and that I couldn't get any sex also killed me.

I feel weak for quitting and I'm afraid I'll always regret this, but I couldn't take it anymore. Everyday I'd cry when I got home and I had diarrhea and vomiting frequentely. I wasn't eating well, couldn't find time to work out or have any hobbies. My life was revolving around Med School and still I couldn't make it (I had poor grades).

Any of you can give me a reliable online IQ test (if such thing exists)? I really feel like I only got into Med School because the admission process is flawed. Perhaps what is killing me is my lack of discipline and mental sanity. I don't fucking know.

I like dealing with stocks and I actually feel like I'm good at it, but maybe it's just luck. Most of my investments turned out to be good. My mom told me I should try studying Economics, but I'm afraid I'll give up again!

I'm never happy. I don't remember when I was. Since I'm a kid my life is miserable.

I wanna get rich, better looking and live a good life. But am I willing to make the sacrifices?

I know doctors earn a lot of money, especially in my country, but they need to study too fucking much and often live miserable lives.

Nice blog post, try /r9k/

You probably know enough to either job the military as a med officer or do illegal surgery for cheap.

Open a back alley medical services company

But if you're a giant pussy, get into hospital admin stuff. You have some med knowledge which will give you a leg up.

>>1568681
anon get your fucking shit together. yes, at this point your life seems miserable and yes, it will be hard to change that. whining around won't help. economics sounds good, just fucking do that
>>
>>1568692
Do you know anything about hospital admin like what's it like? I'm nearly done with an IT certificate, and nearly all of my family are nurses. I don't wanna be a full blown neckbeard IT guy when I'm 40, id rather do med billing or some shit.

My advice is get back to med school at all cost.
Avoid getting into econ at all cost.

Most people turn to coding/econ as a form of escapism.

In your case, I would suggest getting some gap time to travel (if you have moneys) or just generally take your mind off things.

Then you can make an informed decision.

Tbh honest I'm also in your shoes, unsure what to do, everything you described, tho I'm a lawyer currently on the verge of dropout, and I also live in a developing cuntry (Russia).

Tbh I think you need to just get out of 4chan-induced stupor.

Listen here faggot.

I just dropped out of fucking IT Engineering. And broke up with my gf. And started hearing noises. And gained 10 kgs.

Stop feeling sorry for yourself. Guess what. It wont change anything.

Get a job. It gives you a daily routine, which is very important in your case. You most not let days go by without anything happening. Also, it will get you sweet monies.

When you've got routine, insert working out into it. Also, eat healthy. And I dont mean the organic soylent bullshit. It's a lot easier to do with a routine.

One thing that helped me get so far was printing anything that was connected to my daily routine and putting it on my room's wall. Literally everything, stuff like "in the morning, brush your teeth before going to work" or "dont forget to do your laundry". Shit like that worked like magic for me.

If you got all these fixed, you shit-smoothie called brain will be relaxed enough to make the best decision.

Either way, if you want to get that diploma or would rather go work for a jew, you'll need this shit.

Also, look out for advice threads, you can find some good shit there.

I studied Economics.
Didn't like it, became depressed.

Started studying Law, found a field that is massively overlooked by students. Finishing uni in a few months, job prospects are here.

So study law i guess?

you are snowballing op. Dropped the medschool, figured out you are not hot shit, got soft on pussy. All those things are retrofed by your low self steam. To break out you need to get out in baby steps. First : Think about seeking psychological help. You are demotivated obviously because you have no perspective. The impotency thing can be solved, it has to do lack of confidence and or you feel less of a man for not having alot of cash/job . Try eating properly : red fruits, bananas helps with the production of serotonin the brainjuice that will make you more motivated. but it only works if you work out. so start running or praticing some kind of sport this will help. Try smoking pot to blow some steam but have discipline once or twice a month. paying hookers is expensive avoid it, just jerk off. if a friend ask you to go out to do shit you cant say no. Good luck op, i would say you are still young, but that would make you stay on your confort zone. you are not that young, but not that fucked up.

Jesus christ I've never seen anyone go more full retarded. Doesn't matter if you're not feeling it, being in med school is top 1%
>>
>>1568994
Heh, in my country Law is probably the most oversaturated field. 50-70 years ago everybody was idolizing lawyers, to the point that now most kids that don't know what to do after HS pursue this degree. That's how you get hundreds of lawyers driving taxis to make a living.

being successful wont make you happy, being happy makes you successful

stop putting value in meme life goals like "getting rich", "better looking".

look into stoicism

you need to find yourself before you find an occupation

If he didn't enjoy it it's good that he got out early.

figure out what makes you happy and pursue that. it might be something you can't imagine paying well or not what you immediately think o when you think of societally admirable jobs, but you don't have anything if youre not happy. you can always figure out ways to make more money once you've got the foundation set. it will take time. don't get discouraged no matter how many setbacks happen.

To get to there from here is going to take a leap of faith on your part but you will learn to trust yourself. Many people go through this and there's nothing that someone else has done that you can't do too. You will be very frustrated at times but there's no going back to that life. The best is yet to come even if you're going to eat shit for a while, but when it's all said and done navigating through these times will shape you into the person you want to become.

Hey, it sounds like you have a lack of purpose. What do you like doing? This might sound cliche but join a club, like recreational soccer club or something. Find a few friends.

I was lost like you before. There's not many things that money can't fix though, seriously. You're Brazilian so you're probably open to the idea of plastic surgery. Save up for it. You'll notice a dramatic change in your opinion on yourself. I know because I did it, and it worked wonders.

What really made me want to live and succeed was meeting a girl. Stop punishing yourself.

Is suicide sometimes the right answer /biz/? I think so
>>
Your question is too vague, /biz/ gets 100 of these questions a day:
> How do i get rich
> i hav 100 dollar how do I make 1 mil
> how can I make money.

/biz/ doens't have a sticky and these post are considered bait.
You'll have to be more specific
Tell about your skills, environment, education, experience, ideas, etc.

My advice: read books.
>>
>>1571810
this guy's problem is clearly not money. it's depression and lack of self control
>>
>>1570781
I am open to the idea of plastic surgery. In fact, I've saved money all my life to get them. The problem is that now I'm in huge debt and I'll spend all my money to pay it. Actually, I'll even need to find a job so I can acquire enough money to pay my debt.

Part 1/2
Hi OP
I spiralled the fuck off, and almost ruined my life here is how it went from stable to shit to stable (more or less).

>Living in Sweden
>Started university at 17 (about to be 18yo)
>Didnt like first program so changed after a year to engineering.
>First time living on my own, started partying and just fucking around. (19 yo)
>Fucked a classmates/friends romantic interest, ended up being shunned by most guys in class and other guys I became friends with.
>Barely passed 50% of courses first year.
>Moved back home second year. (20 yo)
>Taking 4 total hours of train everyday to and from uni: School year went perfectly.
>Parents decide to move to rich middle east country (nice job offer)
>Stayed behind (21 yo)
>Slowly but surely feeling immensely lonely, barely able to sleep and forgetting to eat too often. Started taking opiates to feel good.
>Stopped going to uni and spent more time playing WoW, working shit jobs and popping Tramadol.
>Still faking being a student to parents as not to worry them.
>2 years go by where Im doing maybe 20% of my total course load. Still taking drugs once a week to feel good (23 yo)
>Mother figures something is amiss and emails my school. Figures out I havent done shit for a long while.
>After a talk with her (while also being high on Tramadol/opiates) I break down confessing how scary it is that I don't even care if I off myself or not. And its only the thought of my younger siblings that keeps me from taking that exit.
>Ends up going to psychologist a couple times.
>Figure out that trauma of me seeing my younger brother die in a car accident as a kid has been affecting me for a long while.
>Stopped going to psychologist abruptly as it felt like wte was left had to come from within me.
>Met a girl through instagram for a few weeks but moving out of country to grandmother (24 yo)
>>
>>1572604
Part 2/2
>Spent a year just healing myself and starts taking part time courses in a nearby community college (grandma pushed me gently).
>Still talking to the girl back home (25 yo).
>The now girlfriend (LDR) played a huge role in helping me push through my shit. Visits her as often as I can. She is truly amazing.
>Finishes 1st year of BBA in community college. Not even putting much effort but just making sure to never miss a class.
>Parents, family and gf encourage me of turning shit around.
>Feels good about myself but still not proud.
>Flies to Sweden have meetings at uni, gets help applying for the right online courses to finish my engineering degree slowly but surely.
>Goes back to Grandma, work my ass off to get into the best Business university in the country.
>Transfers my credits : go right into second year. Sunday was my first day. (26 yo)

As you see hitting 26 years old I went full circle. Now with the cheat sheet in hand I can say that communicating my problems to the people that care most about me made the single biggest difference. Also changing environment if possible to be closer to one such person (for me my grandma) helped, even though the country she lives in is not nearly as comfortable as Sweden. Another thing is finding a girl if possible and setting goals for yourself. Whatever you do OP never stay home without anything that makes you get out of bed at least twice a week.

Sorry for the long post. I thought that if my shit could encourage anyone it would be worth it.
