Drinking copious amounts of alcohol every night after the work is the only coping mechanism that (temporarily)works for me these days.

I'm 28 and the alcohol has recently stopped working. My body can no longer physically handle the drinking. That's my major problem.

yeah I feel that at age 23, I drank very heavily for a few years and now I just can't binge drink, it just makes me too tired

Unironically meditation

Buddhism is some stupid shit, explain how mediation does anything but give me more time to focus on my horrible thoughts and make it harder to ignore the godawful state of the planet. There's a reason the Dalai Lama is choosing not to reincarnate.

he's chosen not to reincarnate because he noticed that he isn't the actual dalai lama

The point is to gain control of your mind so that you don't focus on the horrible thoughts at all. It's hard and takes a lot of practice and feels miserable and pointless for a long time before you see any benefits. Like exercising.

>What are some good coping strategies?

This isn't good or healthy, but I always imagine what if my life was this or that. Like I like to imagine what if I had a real job instead of a wagecuck job.

get some weed

I'm 29, and I can't really stop drinking. If I go cold turkey, I'll get painful withdrawal sympthoms (aka "the shakes"). If I drink too much, I also get the shakes. That means that I have to be sort of drunk across the day. My life at the moment pretty much revolves around drinking.
I don't want to take benzos either, everything feels bleak when I'm on benzos alone.

Laugh at it.

fuck prostitutes.

any heart problems? hallucinations? cold sweats?

when I had drinking problems I found drinking a (relatively) small amount everyday was actually worse than drinking large amounts every couple of days. I eventually got myself to weekends only and got a lot better

If you've got the energy, I'd say lift.

Angry? Deadlift that mofo bar and show it who's boss.

Sad? Them endorphins got you.

Existential dread? Don't worry about! Soon you'll be a meathead that swears he can arm wrestle god!
