>tfw 31 and finally climbed out of the NEET & depression hole after 3 years

I think my depression lasted longer than that I was just self-medicating a lot with DUDE LMAO

For the first time in years I actually want a job and to socialize with people and to experience new things and live life. Every year stuff happens that I want to go and I think "oh well next year". No more.

I'll probably be socializing with a bunch of teenagers behind the counter of a McDonalds or something, and a co-manager who's my age, but hey it's better than nothing


I also miss and really need money to get my career finally going. I had too much pride to go full NEET and get NEETbux. Had I done that I don't think I would have ever came back from it.

>about to finish a master's
>have literally no plans for the future

it will be nice to have money if I get a job, but then I don't see myself having any free time

work part time and add a doctorate

just left work early so I could come home and get drunk off my ass and shitpost here. Hope they fire me at this point they would be doing me a huge favor. Since I can't get a gf I literally don't want anything in life, just want my beer and my weed and to be left the fuck alone until I die.

I don't know. Either I want to go marry a girl and start a family ASAP or else I'll like move to Columbia and just live there banging Columbianas until I'm 70 and die.

I don't know. I could have done so much better. Really just fucked off and didn't try or focus myself.

28 and realized I will always be alone because of the endless void where my soul is supposed to be.
I'm pleasant and can make work friends but I never allow it to go farther than that. These people really have no idea who they are talking to. I wish I could fit in but something just went wrong somewhere.

I'm 28 and have gone full normie with a relatively well paying job and gf that I'll probably end up with forever.

Whenever I've had the thought "what if we break up?" I just can't imagine myself ever wanting to have to go through dating and getting to know another woman again.

I realized that if I wasn't with her, I'd definitely go full nihilist, get the tiniest minimalist apt possible, buy a motorcycle, and just do drugs again.

>>37251676
A doctorate and part time work seems like to me like it would be more work than a full time job. There aren't any part time jobs available to me that would facilitate it anyway.

>>37251291

>>37251666

Nice trips. 26 and starting to realize this as well. Even if a girl was interested in me, I can't be a boyfriend. I can't do intimacy, I can't do romance. I don't like people knowing me.

>>37251959
Technically I'm still a virgin as I've already been told mom's pissy doesn't count.
So, are we gonna repeat it over and over? I know I'm a virgin, everybody else knows it. There's no way repeating it could help me.

>>37251852
>>37251862

not me, just a funposter

My dream career would be to produce and compose awful top 40 pop songs for Bieber and Drake and Katy Perry and swim in a pool full of mone - and then on the side do my own little projects like release black metal albums under a different name just on bandcamp. I'd love to also work with the Japanese music world but necessarily want to live there.

I'm also content with just being a DJ at a punk bar who also plays EDM anime remixes once a year at the local animecon, and makes radio & TV jingles for medium businesses, or come up with the soundtrack for a free to play mobile game that barely cracks the Google Play top 500.

Anything to do with music. Music is what saved me and I want to give it back. There are some college courses around the city but they cost an arm and a leg, as well as the cost of getting the proper hardware and software. I've already got some and I'm teaching myself the basics in the meantime but I got long ways to go yet.

I live in a big city that's very much focused on music as well as entertainment and technology, so I know it's not impossible for me to get a career going in music production. I just gotta commit to it everyday and stop wasting even more of my time.

>turning 25 in a couple months

what do

>>37251940
Nope. Maybe it wasn't "real" depression" but it was a mixture of revisiting 20+ years worth of shit between me and my family and getting closure on it, radically changing my habits and my diet and outlook on life, and getting a normal sleeping habit & exercising everyday.

I also want to say that coconut oil helped a lot. it made getting into a new diet much more easier and it also apparently has great potential in treating depression.

There's so much else that I did as well. I followed the Konmari method and purged about 90% of what I owned and redid the same 4 walls of my bedroom that I was always staring at.

I deleted most of my social media and I also stopped coming on 4chan all day everyday, and I stopped getting into dumb arguments on youtube comments.

I also went to a clinic for the first time in years because I thought I was dying, I also had my teeth fixed.

Like I said, maybe it wasn't real clinical chemical depression, moreso me being a victim of a million shitty circumstances, but it's impossible to tell when you're in it.

>>37252458

We're both young enough that we can move on.

>>37252759
I'm not sure. I think it was a combination of her no longer worrying about hiding certain attitudes as much (I knew they were there before I got married, but it was more subtle, after the wedding she sort of seemed like she didn't care to be subtle about things anymore. See: bitching about friends, jealousy over female co-workers etc.
But also the fact that her Gran died just before the wedding and I think that really effected her and I don't think she ever really got over it. Doesn't help her mom is a complete cunt who is nothing but negative and pushes all her venom on the wife.

Have you tried calling her out on it? Rather than just divorcing her because she's being a typical woman?

>>37252717
marriage really is meaningless to people now, isn't it? lol

>>37253015
I did, and she changed a little, then went back, so told her I was leaving and she begged and cried she can change. And to be fair she has the last few weeks, but I think the damage is done and I just can't look at her the same.
She also said in the big arguement I better hope she's not pregnant because if she is she will have it 'dealt' with. Tell me you can look at someone who can say that and think, this is the woman I want to be with forever.

Been trying to get a more "professional" job around my city. I'm sick and tired of working in fast food and in retail. I fucking hate high school kids so much.

I've applied to a lot of small offices around my city and I'm just hoping I get a call back. I do have some college exp and I know how to use MS office. The requirement are pretty little for the desk jobs, so I really hope I get the job.

The problem is that since I've only worked in shitty easy jobs, I am scared that I will do poorly at the new job (if I get it). I'm so used to working with high school kids and college drop outs that this new change is kinda freaking me out.

Was she close with her gran when she died? Did you try to help her through it? My girl was raised by her grandfather (single) and was absolutely devastated when he passed, empathizing and talking about it as a best friend and practically family-member has probably been one of the biggest things keeping her bonded to me. Work with her, not against her, if you want to make it work -- even when she's a raging cunt, eh?

>>37253444
>The problem is that since I've only worked in shitty easy jobs, I am scared that I will do poorly at the new job (if I get it).
oh that happens to everyone dont worry about it , next time you feel like that remember that theres fuckers out there who go to med school and on their first day at a hospital have someones live in their hands
and whats the absolute worst case scenario? you blow up the company somehow? the very worst that might happen to you is you fuck up one task and even then you can fix it they wont fire you with how much time and money it takes to hire someone new
and if the impossible happens and you get fired then fuck it just find a new one

>>37253277
How old are you?

Don't you have interests that aren't on the internet?

I'm 31 and my parents were a bit behind the time so I didn't have the internet at home until I was 17 or 16. For me life without the internet is normality. It's just something to use to make my regular hobbies and shit better and easier to learn.

It also sounds like all of them are passive. You're just watching shit on twitch or on gogoanime or you're just reading shit on reddit and 4chan. Even video games have you just sitting there and moving a bit of your finger around.

I don't want to tell you what to do for fun, that's for you to discover and decided, but it should definitely be something that's good for your mind and your body. Something creative like playing the piano or drawing, something constructive like gardening & lawn maintenance or woodwork and doing DIY repairs around the house, that sort of thing.

If you love it enough and get good at it it could also be your golden ticket out of NEETdom and into something you enjoy doing and get paid for.

Your 20's are meant to be spend developing your career. If you're still working mcjobs or unemployed at 30, you've made your bed and it's time to lie in it.

You better be working on climbing some professional ladder at 25 anon.

It gets worse. As you continue festering in depressed self-loathing and atrophy from the constant stress and stress-inhibited lack of any cognitive development, your hopelessness rises like a tide of shit.

You sit at your computer, typing about your decaying state of mind to random losers just like you as you slowly realize you're just not cut out for any type of happy, successful life. You know you don't have what it takes to git gud at the only thing you have any small measure of passion for, and you're just biding your time until your NEETbux, youth, and all pretense of a better future inevitably drain away and you finally end up putting that shotgun in your fucking mouth.

There are similarities in how we thing, but I'm not a manlet with inherited wealth.

>>37258886
I don't think you have experienced this then...

Mind you I have a few years on this guy.. 26 doesn't sound so hard.

But trying to date people who are still single without being divorced or a parent... Well there's a reason they're single.

I find the issue is everyone is so set on some ideal and they won't budge. That or... They have unrealistic expectations. Marriage in months. Kids within the year.....

>>37258984
i'm 26 too but i fell for the trade school meme and ended up in college (undergrad) at 25 so there's lots of unattached girls around. not so many 25 year old undergrads but plenty of 22 or 23 year olds.

>>37258941
>that pic/quote
Are there any examples of a movie that was shit for most of it but suddenly picked up in the final quarter?

28 and I just don't give a fuck anymore.
Who even really cares because I sure don't.
I'm not suicidal because that's a waste of time.
I'm not depressed but I'm not happy so 2bh I just need to keep doing whatever it is I'm doing.

I'm 27. I graduated college at 24 and then my life just stalled out. Did absolutely nothing for almost 3 years. But now I have a career prospect. I start training in a few weeks. I'm look forward to the future for the first time in over 15 years. I've lived in a constant haze of dread and despair for over half my life now, ever since my dad died when I was 12. I feel like I can start moving forward for the first time.

I'm still gonna die alone though. A job means I won't die homeless at least, but it can't fix what's really broken about me.

Another problem I found is that I have not found ways relate to women. I don't watch any TV so I can't talk about the bachelor, Game of Thrones, or whatever it is that they are currently raving about. I don't listen to music. I play npr on the radio. I'm not a liberal or feminist and I don't hate Trump.

Can confirm. I was a retard all of my life.
College dropout. Multitude of completely useless jobs, McDicks, call center, crippling manual labor, you fucking name it. Kept telling myself, it's not too late to go back to school. You're only 22 you can still do it. You're only 25 you can still do it. You're only 27 you can still do it. Well I didn't do it and now I'm 32. It's only a matter of time before shotgun is inserted into mouth.
So let me tell you, if you haven't hit 30 yet, there is still hope. You can go back to school and make something of yourself. Don't become me, a sad, lonely, bitter, self loathing cunt sock that thinks about killing himself every day yet so far has been too much of a FUCKING PUSSY to do the right thing.

>>37258878
So much this. If you have no real career prospects at 30 you're in deep shit. By then it's pretty much too late to start over. When you're young you think you always have time to "get serious" or start something new but you can lose so many years in your 20s just "finding yourself" or whatever bullshit you use to excuse being a NEET.

My advice to any NEETs who just turned 25 is to start over RIGHT NOW if that's what you need to do. Do not wait. You are on a fucking time limit. If men have an equivalent of a Biological Clock it is this: get your ass on a career path before you hit 30.

>>37259131
Well the trick I've found to this is meeting people on 4chan..lol.. for example.

The only guy I've been interested in is from 4chan. But he is young and ran off with The Bachelor loving type of girl.

To hopefully give you a smidge of hope. I don't watch popular tv. I watch Jeopardy, sports and sometimes cartoons. Never reality TV.. don't care for game of thrones. I know npr because I listen to a lot of podcasts. But I don't actively listen to radio or music.
Used to live music but things change. Never was into the popular music scene.
I dislike feminists. They make me cringe. I'd rather they didn't 'fight for my female rights'. Trump is whatever. I don't see the point in getting worked up over politics. It's so flawed anyway.

That girl does exist.

The sad part is this wisdom will be ignored. It's a vicious cycle. In your 20s you just want to live in the present and enjoy the good times, but if you don't plan for your future in your 20s then you're stuck in your 30s when it's too late to put any plans into action staring down 40 with no plans for retirement. The truly horrifying thing that everybody over 20 has to realize eventually is they are closer to 40 than they are to their birth. You may be in your prime, you may still think you're going up and up and that you have all this potential and can do anything, but you don't even realize you've already hit the plateau. You're just coasting to the drop, and when that drop hits it's going to be really painful if you didn't prepare any cushioning.

A 4chan girl would be ideal. People on 4chan have personality and character that is often not found in normies. The problem is 4chan isn't a dating site.

If you are a Los Angeles robot let's go bowling.

The problem is every girl has 20 orbiters and the girl just picks the best one. Even fat ones have 5-10 orbiters. Sure getting into a relationship as a girl on 4chan is easy as fuck but then again getting a bf anywhere as a girl is easy as fuck. If you are male it's not happening.

Actually you would would most certainly have better luck finding a gf by going to the most normiest club in your city.

I'm not sure about that. I'm a 28 years old khhv in a difficult situation but I wouldn't say "it's over". It's over for certain things and even then it depends on what cards you have.

The truth is, it takes a lot of effort, more than for the average normie, when you have shitty stats, to move forward in life.

If you start drawing all day long, if you're a neet, and don't stop for years, you will definitely approach pro level at some point. Of course if you spend another 3 years just watching anime, masturbating and eating fast food all day, all you'll have to show for it is diabetes and high blood pressure, maybe balding. I'd say that at some point it might become too late to have any kind of meaningful career in the classic corporate world, so you have to think about starting your own business and alternative lifestyles.

I feel that the problem is also that as you age what you feel you can get out of life doesn't justify the effort, depending again on the cards you were dealt.

I'd say the problem isn't that it's game over, it's just that we're not ready to put in the effort. But at some point you have to realize that it's better to go down fighting, because the suffering the path of least resistance leads you to is greater than you can ever imagine. The few smug pepe posting fucks who will never grow out of their current lifestyle have no idea of the future that awaits them.

>>37260038
>I'd say the problem isn't that it's game over, it's just that we're not ready to put in the effort

(Not that anon). For me it's just that I've given up. I've put in so much effort in everything I've done and I still failed everything. I started over and over again, but it always ended the same way. Getting close to 30- I just don't have it in me anymore

Though, I should add I don't consider it entirely impossible I will be able to pick myself up in a few years. But for now, I'm exhausted and indifferent in many ways

>>37260038
Anticipating stuff isn't going to make you safe from a chaotic future.

>>37260126
If that's true then I'm sorry. If you put up a good fight I doubt you'll have regrets.

>>37260139
What are you getting at? Collapse? I get the feeling that you're fairly young. I've been browsing conspiracy sites and forums since 2008. Since 2008, they all predicted the final collapse in a few months. Whether through economic calculations or crazy occult ramblings, they all told you that the end of the world was just in a few months. Guess what, we're still around.

And I doubt the powers that be would risk it. Slow motion collapse is necessary for people to accept servitude. If you change the situation too rapidly, you risk a revolution. Like if tomorrow, minimum wage drops to 40% of what it is, people will be in the streets. But you can spread that drop over a decade and people will just bitch but they won't revolt.

My life is shit and not well planned at all. Your argument is "life is chaotic, everything can happen, therefore I'll sit on my ass and do nothing". Have you thought about the alternative? What if your house doesn't burn down, what if there's no nuclear war, what if civil unrest doesn't turn into civil war? Then you'll be very much alive, in a very shitty situation because you chose to sit on your ass and do nothing.

Also I need expensive meds to survive, so if all hell breaks loose I'm done for anyway.

I've never ever spoken to a real life woman in a bar, nor have I ever "picked up".

I have had a few girlfriends, of varying ratings, all from internet dating, and especially from tinder.

The trick is to be the "typical male" meme; swipe right on EVERY SINGLE THING, even if it's hideous.

This is because the "practice girlfriend" this place used to harp on about a few years ago (yet I haven't seen any mention of the term in about 18 months now..) is a real thing. Gotta level up your skills, and you do that in WoW by cracking ugly trolls over the head. This ain't no different.

In your 30s you're perfect to go back to school

Going in my 20s was a FUCKING MISTAKE. I was too young and stupid to realise what uni was; a place where you GO TO ACTUALLY LEARN AND BUILD A FUTURE. I was too caught up in "Hurrr P's get degrees!"

My GPA is below three. I was almost kicked out four seperate times for failing too many classes. It took me 6 years to do a three year degree, attending classes FULLTIME.

I regret it so hard and if I could go back, I'd study to learn, and make some use of this 40k debt. Instead I remember nothing, am relearning topics I took at uni because I don't remember shit, and am paying to do certs I had the chance to get FOR FREE AT UNI, but didn't because I was a lazy faggot.

Go back to school. It's made for people like you, not young people who will piss it away.

The difference between 0 and 20, compared to 20 - 40 is so great it in a way nullifies your entire point. Yes, someone at 25 is closer to 40 than 0. But someone at 25 probably has a maximum of 7 years of life experience on them. They might as well be toddlers compared to the 40 year old.

I get what that picture is saying, but keep in mind the life you imagined you could have is also just that- imagination. There's really no guarantee you'd have a better life if you went 'out there' to live. Worst case scenario you'd be left even more physically and mentally broken due to accidents or people fucking with you.

I mean, at least for me, just finding people I get along with and enjoy being with happens extremely rarely. Much less having a 'normal' life

Well, not saying nobody should ever try, just that maybe those regrets might not be appropriate for the kind of life you might have had.

>>37256711
Kind of.
At 15, living in a low income area in Scotland my main pressures from others were be popular and get a bf, with the subtle implication that I should get pregnant to really have my life set.
But I hated those pressures and wanted to move to Canada, some quiet town where they sold nice pancakes and coffee and be a librarian.

At 26 I live in Sweden (still have a hard time processing that as someone who's never really left the UK) and studying a medical biology masters. However I still have issues with personal relationships and find it really hard to connect with others while still craving interaction. So I guess 15 year old me would be impressed, but not quite get why I'm so fucking melancholy.

I personally made a profile and just honestly talked about my situation and hobbies even anime etc. I noticed my match % with roastie is 0-10%.

I guess the thing is im fine with being alone I just wanted to put myself out there and if theres some qt introvert who would see my profile and think shit I could get along with this weeb. Then great.

I've come up with this maybe silly aim of being middle class. Middle class anons (UK or US I guess), what does it take to be middle class?

I was raised to eat cheap, tasty food. The kind of meals people make drunk after a night out are like the ones I make for dinner. I'll find things abandoned/lost on the street and have no issue with making it my own, because otherwise I'd never have that thing. I view discussions on philosophy and politics as pretentious shit, and hate fucks like Stephen Frye. I have this weird thing with brands where I hate them, find them useless but covet them (as any poor person would, I guess). I've never been to a nice restaurant, and I think I'd be extremely nervous if I did.

I have NO idea how to emulate what's normal, and have always had a rough/odd haircut, never managed to get makeup or clothes right either. If i'm in a group photo I'm clearly the odd one out, and it's due to this generally "rougher" look, if you know what I mean? I never look uh, clean. I'll try find a picture to demonstrate what that means. Point is, I look, eat and act lower class and not sure how that's fixed.

I've started by eating green olives. I recently got artichokes and I'm going to cook them. I don't think I'll ever like wine, but maybe I could do classy beer. I try be more open intellectually, but often end up mocking whoever I'm trying to discuss things with. But I'm doing a masters degree and my income bracket will be middle class soon enough, so I want to try.

>>37261084
That's a good point. Still, when I was a kid I thought there was something. I could "feel" a future. I was yearning for something, nothing really definite, but there was this feeling, this yearning, something was out there for me. A place, a family, a purpose. I didn't know what it was but I was sure I would find it. Now I feel nothing. I'm not sure life is worth living. I can't find anything interesting. I just want to die/wait for death.

>>37261156
I don't find it fun. I've been posting here for 9 years now. Keep in mind that the time when you started is important, like with anime and other passive hobbies. The state of your own life in general is important too. A normie with a well adjusted life might enjoy coming here because he's probably free of existential questions and anxiety.

Be my NEET friend.

Playing games and watching shows is more fun with a friend, and even more fun when you've been drinking.

>>37255682
Nah it's not something a talk about to my friends. They don't even ask, though honestly it would be a little weird if they did. I keep my work and my gaming/friends completely separate.

As an example, I started playing Path of Exile. I shilled it a bunch to them because we played Diablo 3 together a bunch like two or three years ago now. I was looking for a reason to play with them again because they play a lot of LoL/Overwatch anymore and I don't like those games, really.

Yesterday they pulled an all-nighter to play Diablo 3 together. They haven't played Diablo in years as I said, so I can only think that bringing up PoE made them think of it. They didn't even invite me to play with them and now that they're playing D3 they aren't going to play PoE.

It's a small thing that I can't really bring up without sounding autistic but it shows that they don't really consider me someone they want to play with, and though I don't think they consciously made a decision to leave me out, this happens constantly, it's always like "Oh well I'd play PoE but I'm already playing D3, yeah you told us about it but we marathoned D3 last night so I'll probably be playing that for a while."

I used to have a few friends who I'd hang out with. One time when I was pretty depressed and felt like total shit I stopped talking to them and meeting up with them, haven't said a word to them since. I thought that maybe I'd feel sad, but I didn't. There was nothing.
Same with relatives, whenever one of them died I all I felt was annoyance because I had to go to the funeral. Even if it were my parents I think I wouldn't feel anything. Maybe a little annoyed because I'd have to take care of their shit then.
If there was no punishment for murder I'd do it.

>What are causing your panic attacks? Is it anything specific? Attacks 6 days a week can't be from general anxiety.

has just built up over a couple of years. i used to just get anxious at work but as soon as i left the anxiety would go away. then after a few months i would leave and still be anxious on the way home. then i started getting anxious before work. then i started getting anxious brushing my teeth or having a shower, doing the things i would do to get ready for work. then it started before going to sleep. now i get anxious nearly every night for no apparent reason and an attack lasts up to 6 hours.

>Try CBT first, maybe see a psychiatrist but don't let them give you benzos to start with.

too late. been on benzos for half a year now. up to 2mg of xanax most days. would probably have withdrawals if i stopped and have even worse reflex anxiety. i saw a psychologist for ages and he couldnt work out the cause and the best help he could give me was "focus on your breathing". seeing a new psychologist now and we discussed CBT. im hoping it helps.

>>37262449

You're fucked now, you'll have to do withdrawals sooner or later, and benzo drawls are horrible. Do it sooner though because whatever you go through now, it'll be worse later, possibly death. Benzos are one of the few physically addicting substances that can kill you during withdrawals.

Alcohol too, though not as much
http://www.livescience.com/15300-alcohol-withdrawal-death.html

> Yes, experts say -- though it's not common.

>"Somebody who's been a drinker and consumed a lot of alcohol for a number of years probably could have severe seizures," said Dr. Robert Schwartz, chairman of family medicine at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine.

>Such seizures may cause an individual to aspirate food (inhale it through the trachea) that comes up from their stomach, possibly leading to choking and death, Schwartz said. Hitting your head during a seizure can also be lethal.

>Common withdrawal symptoms from alcohol include difficulty sleeping, sweating and heart palpitations. Withdrawal can also cause delirium, hallucinations, rapid heart rate, high blood pressure and hyperventilation, Schwartz said.

26 here. NEET, no friends, virgin, no hobbies, clinically depressed, etc.

I try to imagine that I would be happy with a stable career, a loving wife, my own house, etc. but I just can't. I would feel exactly the same, but with added stress of having to work everyday + managing familial issues.

I try to think that I would be happier if I were a billionaire and could do whatever I wanted every day for the rest of my life, without worrying about paying bills and shit, but it doesn't seem that way. Whether you're skydiving over a volcano while simultaneously playing chess and banging a supermodel, or sitting on your ass browsing the Internet all day, the novelty will always wear off. The knowledge that death is inevitable is always there. All the money in the world can only delay it. Whether your life is filled with happy memories or shitty memories, eventually you will cease to remember any of them.

>Anon, you're just saying that to justify not doing anything with your pathetic life

To an extent, yes. But I don't think it's outrageous to not want to join the rat race and spend your entire life obsessively comparing how well you're doing relative to your peers. The problem is I don't see happiness in any of the alternatives either.

That's a good approach but you'd have to be pretty bad at economics to honestly think it's "just gambling". Moving your wealth around the market is just good economics. People got rich off 2008, the housing market especially, and gambling never factored into it.

We are a product of our environment and our environment is a product of us. When we change our environment, we change ourselves.

Her method isn't about shovelling all your stuff out into the trash so you're left with only one lightbulb and an empty table, it's not about minimalism.

Fuck trying to learn to be more outgoing, it really sucks ass
On same evening I managed to get called faggot by some mudslimes for NOT chasing after their underaged girls, and deemed a predator by some do-gooder kids for looking back at a doped up woman staring at me.

Pissed enough to consider walling my cave door closed and go full hermite status.

>get called faggot by some mudslimes for NOT chasing after their underaged girls

this situation you got yourself in really makes me think

what happened exactly

I got the biggest slap from reality and life today that nothing will get better.

I still live at home because NJ is one of the most expensive places to live in due to taxes and rent being so horribly high. I got Crohn's Disease and I cannot do long commutes into the city. I got fired from my last job because I was out sick too much from CD, this was before I got diagnosed, however. I got a job offer down there but I had to decline it due to only making 30k a year in Raleigh, not enough to live off of without assistance.

Dad retired and wanted to move to NC, but as per usual my father fucked everything up by not getting the permits he should've gotten years ago. Now, our buyer pulled out of the deal and we lost our house. We dropped 30k on just moving expenses so far and now my dad says we don't have enough money anymore.

I worked in marketing/sales, the only jobs are a minimum of an 1.5 hour long car ride or 2 hour long ride into the city, which I can't do anymore.

Reality basically slapped me in the face by saying I'm stuck here. I cannot leave and probably never will leave NJ or be out on my own. I would like to try to date but I can't get a place of my own. Then I realize I'm an ugly fuck anyways and no woman would probably want me anyways.

>self admitting to being a brat

How does it feel to know it's actually who you are as a human being that's removing anyone who would find you attractive from ever coming near you?

26 KHV.

Finished work earlier today but was fucking stuck in traffic for 2 fucking hours because of an accident on the motorway so I feel like shit. Also my car is on the verge of breaking down for the 4th time, might have to get a new one but don't want to waste any money.

On a better note, time for UK Garage.

>hop between two places, shit music, overprived drinks
>move toward third place
>on the way pass some local enrichment crew busy jerking off about their car

>"fine, lets try then"
>look back and smile
>some 16ish girl with her same age boy notices me
>steps between the seats to block our line of sight
>starts whispering to her bf

You'll make much much more driving, but you'll get fat as fuck if you're not careful.

Isn't 16 legal in the UK? What you wrote sounded very UK-ish. You should smash it. I'm 25 and hooked up with a 16 year old.

Funny that you mentioned the motorcycle, I'm single and was thinking of getting one. What does it mean? Is riding something that single guys do subconciously?

I understand what the image is trying to say but some of us don't have a choice. Some of us got rejected by society starting in their early childhood and continueing in through out their adulthood. No matter where I go, what school I go to or what job my classmates/workmates will welcome me friendly in the first few days but quickly lose interest in me and cast me out completely How do I go outside and make friends? It's impossible for me

>>37270554
They would been legal from my guess work, but fuck that noise.
I am not enough of pick-up guy to manage to just get a lay out of it anyway, and I am not really willing to deal with anything female below 25 unless it jumps my bones.

try maybe to talk to them about this. You probably share all of those nice memories, and you can just start doing fun things again

what is the point of our lives
are we here just to suffer

>>37271235
most wild animals don't question life, and they get seriously fucked up lives where they lose limbs and shit

it's just how it is. no one and nothing has a soul. there's just biological species and variety. you just think you're having a unique experience and that you matter, but you're just 1 of 7 billion bags of meat and bone that have a brain.

once you die that's the end of your existence. true, it's quite unfair, but at least it comes to an end eventually.

If you have nothing to lose why not take the religion pill? It may sound fishy at first but once you become dedicated believer you'll feel noticeably better and even a little wiser. Personally its helped me cure my depression. Im no longer devastated about my future and since I've removed my ego I no longer have self-esteem issues. Any religion will do, just don't get tricked into believing one that just wants to steal your money.

I am over 25 and what I have learned from these threads is that you are all sad sack beta faggots. Please stop being such a waste of all my precious air, thanks.

I'm 30. Living with MOM. Had to go back to school to finish my degree. with a bunch of 22 y/old dumb normies. However it does get better. I feel confident because I accept how fucked up I am. My fucked up situation is so evident that I no longer hide it. It is an "armor" of some sorts. The normies like me also. So pretty much that. A protip: Take beta blockers. Cheap, accessible and they block your capacity of getting nervous. I love them to give presentations.
