all of life is high school forever...

So now that I'm awake from the dream and all my delusions shattered, what do I do? Everything feels so fucking awful because I'm starting from square one, 24 years behind everyone else my age.

>>39353933
Then you're surrounding yourself with the wrong people.
>>
>>39354132
you're probably right but it's hard to not buy into it and play the game. I'm still young so I feel compelled to try but it just ends up depressing me even more
>>
>>39354132
Not that anon, but everywhere you go people are playing the game of high school. The social structure prevalent in hs is carried over to a lot of places with the mentality staying nearly the same.
>>
>>39353933

true high school never ends. politics, popularity contests, fawning over one person forever, etc. but when you're adult you're finally out of puberty and you can find self confidence

>>39353989

whats going on in your life?

>>39354156

people will gossip and backstab you wherever you go. the trick is surround yourself with good people so you don't need to worry about it at all.

>>39354534
absolutely nothing. everything I try or do ends in pain and suffering. trying just hurts more than doing nothing

4. Exercise even if it's not that intense

I'm in my 20s and now have just enough passive income coming in that I would never have to work again and I absolutely have no idea what to do now. I just keep working all the time.

What brings you happiness? What do you enjoy the most?

I'm majoring business at a really good university but I wanna drop out and study something that's actually fun or join the navy. I'm wondering if I'm making the right choice. I absolutely hate going to uni and I think three more years will drive me insane, but I don't wanna fuck up my adult life either.

I'm thinking of chemistry, architecture or something arts related (I produce music and I'm very creative) if the navy doesn't work.

>passive income

like rental properties or flipping houses? i had an uncle who flipped houses back in the 90s and made a shit load but i feel like everybody is doing it now. he tried renting but said its too hard to find reliable tenants.

This.
Not only will it help you attract mates, but doing a 5-15 minute bodyweight workout every day has amazing effects on your mood.

Should I go to trade school or is that a meme? Already asked this yesterday but I'm in community college and hate it. No idea what degree I want to get into after going to a uni after two years. Would it be a more practical idea if I became an electrician or mechanic?
>>
I'm a senior (18 y/o) in high school and I plan on going to university for an economics degree and starting my own business. Does anyone have any problem with this? Is my dream of having lots of businesses and buying my 6th bugatti stupid? I just want to know before I invest too heavily in stocks and especially before heading to uni.

How the fuck do people manage to turn their childhood abuse into art or something motivational? How the fuck do they do it?

Look into hobbies.
Something you actually enjoy.
You won't know what it is until you find it..

Seven years ago, I would have never thought that I actively enjoy writing porn, but here I am.
>>39357899
Easy. You lie about most of it.
Do you know how to hold a broom? Check.
Do you know how to use basic cleaning equipment? Check.
Do you know how to read a fucking list and sort items? Check.
Do you have basic computer skills? Check.

>Willingly wanting to work at Walmart
Shit's gonna be rough. Prepare for long nights. Bring more food than you think you will need. Same goes for water. I will tell you that you should re-apply a couple times, even speak to people directly if needed.
Protip: Spend a day or two coming up with fake, believable stories that you can easily retell. Something about a time you had trouble with a group member, or shit about having to overcome a challenge.

I have massive motivation problems for things releated to school. I cannot find it in me to sit down and do some work for uni. I'm failing my classes, and I probably won't make it to the next year, but i've come to terms with this since I discovered the root of the problem. I can't work towards something I don't enjoy. I have a job on the side that I love. I get along with my coworkers, I stay late, I learn a lot, I meet new people. I finally understand why people become workaholics, it's such a friendly and exciting environment. Except the fact that I can't keep the job if I don't finish some kind of uni program. I might switch uni courses. That might help, but the main problem apart from my lack of motivation is my father, he scares the shit of me and would be pissed at me if I failed uni. He doesn't have any formal education so he is really pushing my brother and me to finish school, now my brother has no problems doing this since he enjoys school, but I on the other hand will now become the family failure.
>any tips to motivate myself for uni?

>>39356867
Depends on what you like and if you'll be able to actually do it.
>>
>>39357959
Because those people have support structures they can fall back on or have redeeming qualities about themselves. They aren't true robots.

>>39358038
Don't use fear.
And seriously, there's nothing wrong with taking some time off of college before continuing.

Twenty eight year old forever neet here.

What you guys need to do is get off of my board.

>>39358210
I'll consider doing that when
you stop being useless

I guess we're both stuck here.

Thanks anon. You're words have calmed me down a bit. Usually I can calm down a bit thinking about people who have completely fucked up their lives with drugs/lazyness or other stuff, but came out on top later. So many people I know that don't have an education or didn't have as many options as me and turned out fine. That makes me feel that everything is going to be okay, it's just that this transition period from uni to fullblow adulthood is scary as shit. I feel like I don't know shit and don't know what to do on my own.
>mfw one day everything will be okay and ill laugh back at these days thinking why i worried for nothing

Yeah, that's the best way to look at it.
I thought my life was going to shit when I was working 2 jobs, going to uni, had hospital visits, and withdrawal from the medicine and I somehow managed to turn my gpa from a 1.6 to a 2.1, barely passing.
I've been in the same fucking boat, man. You got this though. It's not all sunshine and unicorn farts, but things do get better.
