Did you have tea bags or loose leaves? Tea bags produce tea of very low quality and it gets really bitter if you steep it for too long. If you had leaves and didn't like it then there are many different kind of green teas (e.g. sencha, matcha, gyokuro) not to mention that there are probably thousands of different flavored ones.

Woke up at 6am instead of usual noon.
tip for fatbots trying to lose weight:
skip lunch
your hunger will subside a while after you normally eat, and it doesn't make you any hungrier for dinner
I did this for a year and lost like 20lbs without any exercise
it also helped by severely decreasing my appetite so I can't eat as much as I used to even if I wanted to

Fuck you I'm not spending more than half my waking non working hours asleep
Do something productive in very small increments so you cant get bored
Instead of dreading an hour of crap, you can get 5-10 minutes of study/cleanup/exercise and feel better after
>>38474635

I'd sleep 20 hours a day if I could and get up to eat and watch a movie

Put cream or honey in it. It also speeds up your metabolism.

Sleep on a strict schedule, don't stay up when you're tired and get off your computer/phone at least 15 minutes before laying down to sleep.
Wear pajamas only when you're getting into bed. This way when you wear them, it tricks your brain into wanting to get rest when you're restless.
Keep a journal or diary. Negative thoughts tend to stay cluttered in your mind until it's too much and you break down. Seeing the words in front of you will help you process the information and find a solution. Do this instead of posting these feelings online, so they aren't filtered through your need to impress others.
Meditation. Not in a spiritual way, unless that's your jam. Take 10 minutes every day to just calm down, not worry about anything, and feel safe. It's hard at first but you will see results.
Stop letting negative judgements of others leak into your decisions. Everyone judges others, but the less you act on these judgements and give them validity, the better you will feel. Your spiteful feelings towards women and nonwhites are creating pathways in your brain, indents that are getting deeper and deeper every time you act upon your judgements. These pathways will make you default to negativity almost constantly, and are hurting you physically and psychologically. If you suffer from anxiety, this could be a defining reason why. Once you learn to stop, you will realize that everyones snap judgements aren't as harsh as yours, and that most people go about their day and forget the negative assumption immediately.
Stop being friends with people that fuel your bad habits. You enjoy being around "the lads" because they don't challenge your morality or creativity. Negative banter is healthy occasionally, but if your friend groups default is insults and name calling, get out. It's doing you more harm than you know. Form some positive relationships with a group of diverse people who share interests and goals with you. It will make you feel productive and safe.

I'm basically on 4chan for 16 hours a day, what to do?
>>38474324
Stop being like this faggot and accepting defeat. You only lose when you give up. Self improvement takes time and commitment, and the longer you've been in the rut, the longer it'll take to get out. But there is a way out.
The key is think positive. For example, I thought the college/degree meme was just a way to get colleges to squeeze money out of me, (don't get me wrong, it is,) and that I would never be able to get a job with my degree. But now I'm making good money and my hard work paid off. I refused to listen to that negative side in my head (and on 4chan) and I met success.
Wake up in the morning and look at yourself in the mirror and say positive things about yourself. Yeah, it sounds gay, but it's important part of self improvement.
>>38475232
Try to reach out to different communities. Maybe try to find a forum for any niche hobbies or interests you have, or find a discord group that's just a group of friends and not hobby specific.
I've yet to find out where to meet irl friends, I've just moved to a city after living in the backwoods my whole life. Not sure how it all works yet, but if you know how I think that would be a good change of pace as well.

This. STOP worrying about if self care is too feminine or if you're coddling yourself. You are the one person who SHOULD coddle yourself in times of need, and you can't worry about being tough all the time. Make sure you're bathed, make sure you're drinking enough water. It's "sissy stuff" but it's fucking important to your mental health. Make some friends that actually encourage this behavior instead of "jokingly" putting you down 24/7.

Enjoy constant low energy, decreased concentration and willpower, lowered testosterone and premature aging
>>38474791
Get up and do something you fuck
How is it even possible to sleep 12 hours? I wake up spontaneously after 10 or less
I've been taking cold showers for over a week and I've yet to notice anything different. The only thing I somewhat enjoy about them is the water hitting my head and face after they are lathered up. The water feels pretty refreshing.
>>38474313
This single tip, next to cold showers and better sleep and exercise will make a HUGE difference that you couldn't possibly replicate with any amount of vegetables or anything else. Soft drinks alone are the reason why so many people are fat or look like resurrected corpses.

He does have line breaks. You aren't supposed to make every single line its own paragraph
>>38474063
>manuka honey
this shit is really great, I've been told you can use it on wounds to make them heal faster and it's got like a bunch of good vitamins and stuff but if you're depressed and miserable just buy the cheap supermarket stuff it tasted pretty much the same
>>38475179
>Keep a journal or diary. Negative thoughts tend to stay cluttered in your mind until it's too much and you break down
Great advice, started doing this last year after a bad break up and it really helped me back on my feet
I started doing small useful habits like making my bed and cleaning. It really works.

Swap an aspirin for a 9 mm bullet delivered straight to your head with the aid of a handgun for those pesky headaches that just won't go away.
>>38474019
try matcha, cold brew it by putting water in your refrigerator overnight and then mix it up in the morning.
Add two weetabix (with milk/yogurt) to your breakfast. They have a lot of fiber in them and your poops will improve. You'll save a fortune on toilet paper
