what's the reason for you being in uni and 27 ?
>>
>>39580994

do you feel comfortable with yourself?
what is your major? why cant you get a job?

don't you hate yourself?
>>
>>39581092
no I do not feel comfortable with myself, I am nearly always smoking weed to cover it up and drink at least 12 beers a night to forget what I am.
my major was psychology. graduated with about a 3.2 and no networking skills
I probably could get a real job but I don't try. applied to 2 jobs in my field yesterday but that kind of day is a rarity.
I cycle between hating myself to the point of staring at the wall, smoking cigarettes cursing myself for a coward because I haven't blown my brains out and being completely content in the bullshit world I've built around myself.
livin' the dream.

Fellow psych. Majored but in central europe. There is no job here for psych majors. The worst part is not that I will enver work in my profession but to interact with literal retards in my minimum wage. Psychology just made me aware of things I would rather not know while working here.

Will commit suicide soon or go full diogenes and become homeless. Psych is probably the most rewarding experience and the most useful info you can get but its also one of the least employable. I honestly have no idea why I even tried. There are manual labor that pays more than PhDs but now I am overqualified.

There are 2 job offers in the entire country right now. I am so happy I want the nukes fly and destroy this shithole.

It's one of those degrees where you really need to go to grad school/med school to find work

it really is. I actually did good yesterday though because it turns out my mommy GF's oldest friend works in a local psych ward as an RN and had been there like 12 years. last night while the three of us were drinking/smoking/talking she said she'd vouch for me if I applied there again.
this was my first networking endeavor. I think this is how normal people do it but I'm not too sure.

25 for 6 months. I had about two months of employment from March-April (seasonal job). Other than that I've been unemployed for over a year. I live alone in my parent's house while they travel for work. I have a couple more months here until they come home. If I'm not working by then I'm killing myself. I already put a pistol to my head more often than what I'm comfortable with.

Generally speaking, contracting HIV when you're the one inserting the penis is actually difficult to do barring sores on your dick. When you take the dick though the risk is immense due to microabrasions, especially in the mucosal layers of the anus.

We're all gonna make it brah.

Even for normans the solutions are terrible. We're in economic freefall here in the US outside of the major cities and no one wants to talk about it. Had I not been such a chump I'd have went military and avoided all of this but you can tell there's something really fucked up about the world if your only option is military.

It hurts to know the exact points in our lives where we failed. Like when I failed 1 class (that 80% of the class failed) and quit my main major which was a full ride to a great life. Had everything handed to me and now I live in hell. And it's all my fault, too. Sometimes my only solace is knowing that with a weapon I can take it all away from someone else but that's a dangerous line of thinking. I cannot build, I can only destroy.
>>
>>39581637
Samefagging to continue: It's not even that I want to go back. I realize that's impossible and a dangerous thought trap. I just don't know how to go forward anymore. Most avenues of financial improvement have closed or maybe I'm just blind to them. Everything I try to start feels like some sort of scam or trap and I'm just getting too old, too tired for this.

depends on you m80. if you're more of a doer than a thinker why don't you take on manual labor. construction, factory work, you name it. it's not a dead end job. if you aren't the dumbest guy around and have somewhat ambition you have good chances on being promoted after a few years (goes without saying that depends heavily on the company you're working at) and earn decent bucks at least where i live. if you are better with the brain work then go get a degree. but at least get a good one and really go for it. medicine, law or stem. let's be real here anything else is bullshit (besides philosophy which is the mother of all sciences but it won't earn you much, so only go for it with a rich daddy) and you're prone to end up like the miserable anons in this thread. gl and hf

therapy and meds are only a meme if you don't actually have depression.A lot of normies go "wahh I am sad that my gf/bf broke up with me I have depression!" get meds and therapy and then say it didn't really work and they "pulled themselves out of it by sheer will". If you actually have depression then it could be the one thing keeping you from eating a gun like myself.

hey man i'll take eating pills over thinking about all the ways I can kill myself 24/7 for the past 13 years. I never said it would make life have meaning (it doesn't) and it doesn't make life not shitty (it doesn't) but it makes things ok and tolerable. If you were anyway as bad off as me then you'd look for a way out of that constant hellscape whether its through pills or a gun.

yeah? do you feel like things are at least a little bit better on the pills then off of them?

well the must be doing something for you if you decided to keep on them for 7 years. Also, if there not helping enough talk to a psych and get your meds changed.

Like I said before. The pills aren't earth shattering but they make life at least tolerable for the most part. Still have depression but the suicidal thoughts and screaming are at bay. That is worth something.

>>39582166
definitely. doesn't change the fact that the therapy itself is a meme. i'm seeing my fifth therapist now and he's telling me the same bullshit the others did. it's like they can't even conceptualize what's wrong with me.
>>
>>39582150
yeh it's the same with the family of the gf. after all those years they're basically my family. i can't just cut the ties. i'd feel even more like shit than i usually do. also i have zero hobbies no job and no social skills. and the looks, i don't have them too. breaking up and i would find nobody else besides fat desperate chicks. every decent girl my age is married or in a serious relationship.
>>
>>39582191
so real it hurts. i went to a few therapists and nobody even gave me the feeling that he understands the least bit of how i feel. they're absolute fucking normans. just spouting out all the shit they read in their textbooks during college. while that may apply to some it doesn't mean it applies to all yet to me. but they don't seem to care as long as they get their bucks.

>>
>>39582191
I don't think therapy is a meme. I do believe though that there are a lot of bad therapists. I've had a couple who literally just wanted my money and didn't want to do anything. Therapy is not life changing but I still think the gist of venting and trying to talk to someone about your problems help. Thats why I talk to people on the internet and share vent. I think charging someone whos mentally ill money to talk about their feelings is wrong but when its your only option its better than nothing
>>

>>39582547
You know why? Because only the rich is most countries can becom a therapist and most of them are far away from common man problems. I know this because I also have a psych degree and tried to get there. You need years and thousands of euros to even get licence and then good luck getting your own therapy office. It is a hobby for rich by the rich. I was a fool to try to pursue it. Now not all are bad but this certainly make a lot of therapists absolutely out of touch with us. I know from my classmates that a lot of therapists are basically handed as nepotism jobs. Its getting shit.

I no longer want to contribute to this society. I hope it all crumbles.

Stop taking everything so serious. At least that was a big cause for me. I used to be anxiety filled at work, thought it would stop and 3 years later i was still as anxious as ever everyday, then something just snapped and i just didn't give a fuck anymore.

Similar to you in that i was anxious all the time and couldn't do simple tasks, but now i've reached a point where i just don't care enough to be afraid.

I did and realized after a week I wont have any way of supporting myself so I instantly get depressed. Then I got degree and made it a hobby realized I cant get a job in it.

I dont want to do anzthing anymore. Every opportunity I find gets fucked once I get to employable level or get the licence. I no longer I am going with shitty jobs and then homeless, maybe kill some asshole manager while at it who knows or cares.

STEM has always been a meme. Despite what people say the market is over saturated. Essentially never follow what the common advice on money/job issues are as it's largely junk. STEM industries just wanted more people to drive down wages
>>
>>39584426
You know even if you did have stem there is no point. Most stem are shit but it depends on location. I dont live in US so its limited even more. Until you graduate the stem meme you pursued may become useless.

Also programming. I know this CS meme and all but it is not possible all can get into it. Plus if even such a position as programming is hard to get to even if you know it because no meme degree because you just want to do web stuff and get better at it constantly then there is no point in even trying.

In a decade everything from STEM to liberalarts to trade or no degree will be minimum wage poverty except some 180IQ jobs. Better buy myself some tent and get used to cold weather and shitty food.

this is only half the truth. the market is over saturated with people that have a shitty mark on their degree and are useless and replaceable. if you are one intelligent fucker stem is not a meme but your opportunity. specialize in some field and you're good to go. also be patient. i always see entitled fuckers finishing college thinking they can easily earn six figures. shit even with a degree you have to work yourself up.

I talked to a girl for the first time in my life today. I mean, of course I have literally talked to girls before, but today I approached a girl by my own will and for reasons normies usually approach girls. It was awkward as fuck, but I'm glad I did it. The girl I talked to is really sweet and awkward, I bet she's on the spectrum just like me, but goddamn was she awkward even compared to me. At times she seemed completely normal, but then again there were those really really awkward moments, probably caused by the weird situation itself and/or by me.

Also I feel very conflicted. Part of me is like
>Fuck yeah, you talked to a girl! You man now!
But I also feel kinda guilty and anxious over the whole thing. It's kinda difficult to explain it. Does anyone know what I mean? When I was talking to her I kept wishing things to develop and go somewhere, it was like a rush. But after school was over and I was waiting for bus, I kept thinking
>Uh oh, what if she does like me? I have to go out with her into movies and shit, introduce her to my mom, get introduced to her parents, her being super awkward and me being super awkward etc.
And those thoughts made me really anxious and exhausted. Of course I wish that I will find that special someone to spend the rest of my life with, but I've been alone for so long + I have literal autism so I don't even know if I'm capable of such relationships.

Nothing is confirmed yet; she might not even like me/she turns out to be a lesbian/she's already seeing someone etc. so this might not be *it*. Whatever it is, at least I tried.
>>
>>39584788
no u don't understand. being replaceable is vastly determined by you. that's why i said you have to specialize in some field. that makes you a lot less replaceable. the next part is to be as irreplaceable as you can for the company you work with. i.e. only you have the know how to opperate or program that one machine you're company is having or having a deep understanding of the infrastructure of your company and so on. they can't just say fuck off to you and hire the next best guy for your job. that should be your goal if you want to earn big time.

This is pointless. What if you are good in something that is not marketable? Also most people are lazy as fuck from what I see and semi retarded. Even if you put hours daily into something you would be miles ahead but it doesnt matter if it is not something someone will pay you for. And no, high IQ doesnt mean you can do everything. If that was possible CS graduates wouldnt be social retards. I know there are exceptions but if only exceptions can make it in this society then it is fucked and it will crumble and degrade to third world soon.

Bad economy and disappearing of social care jobs is a sign of society dying and devolving into shithole.

>ask her if she likes to draw because I see her use her tablet all the time
>she says yes
>I show her some of my drawings on my phone
>she giggles and says they're nice (this is the part where she was acting like a normie, proving that if she's on spectrum she's very high functioning like me)
>I put my phone away and awkward moment ensues
>I see her dig her backpack but I don't react, I don't want to push it
>she picks up her tablet
>neat, she's probably going to show some of her drawings
>I don't say a thing, I don't want to rush it
>still not saying anything, she sits there with her tablet

>all these depressed 25+ psych majors here
Kek, me too. Only difference is I majored in it because it's better than a theatre degree and I applied most of what I learned to acting so I'm getting something out of it. I honestly could be a therapist if I went to grad school just because I know how bad a lot of my colleagues were back then. Anyone that simply makes their decisions based on textbook definitions and not by actually listening to the people you're trying to help shouldn't be giving therapy in the first place, but I guess that comes with being the most oversaturated major we have today.

I'm the 27 year old NEET with the mommy GF. disclaimer: I am fairly attractive to the opposite sex and have had multiple girlfriends/ladyfriends/fuckbuddies.
she messaged me on an anonymous blogging app and we just started talking because I am not a sperg.
I met up with her the night after we first spoke and fucked her a few days after.
she's been my mommy GF ever since.
she even buys my beer (sometimes) and weed (most of the time).
she also cooks for me every night.
and we have incredible sex, at least by her standards. realistically it's a little vanilla by mine.

>But I also feel kinda guilty and anxious over the whole thing. It's kinda difficult to explain it. Does anyone know what I mean?

Yes, it means you're pushing yourself out of your comfort zone in order to improve yourself. You're making real strides here.

>what if
Also, never think that far ahead. It's a rookie mistake. You need to recognize that you are emotionally fantasizing about a girl that has not yet invested in you that much. You need to take these things one step at a time to prevent preemptively investing in someone to the point you have unfounded fantasies like that about them. You are manufacturing your own heartbreak, when in reality she has never done anything nice to you.

My advice moving forward is to get a good conversation out of her. Just find some time to shoot the shit in a relaxed setting and get to know her as a person. Get her to open up to you and see if you really like what you see or if you guys vibe well together. If you do, ask her to go do something. If not, it makes it easy to walk away.

Another tip to avoid oneitis is to get moving as fast as possible on a girl. Get to know her, see if you click, then ask her out maybe twice (if she gives some open ended maybe answer). Once your done, quickly move on to the next girl. You should be randomly talking up girls as often as possible to build your social skills and have options available after one falls through.

If you feel like joking, joke. You want somebody you are comfortable being yourself around and someone that likes you for who you are. No facades. This isn't a license to be an autist though. Have fun, but don't reveal your power level or autistic hobbies unless she mentions it first.

Oh yeah, I know that. Today I almost, ALMOST, said something I would surely regret and cringe at now. What I was going to say was
>hey you sit in the back of the class, right? sometimes when I get nervous I make these sounds with my throat, kinda like clearing my throat but in intentional patterns. Can you hear them all the way to the back?

But I'm so fucking glad I didn't say that. At the time I thought it would be a good idea to kinda "test the waters" by revealing little bit about my power level considering she might be on the spectrum as well, but jesus fucking christ I'm glad I didn't say that.
>>
>>39586673
>joke
if you want to be a little playful, don't self depreciate and blame yourself for not asking. say something like, 'will you show me something you've drawn this time? you didnt the other day...' that way, if on the off chance that she was a little snubbed because you didn't ask she'll now think about the situation like, 'oh shit I should have just shown him the stuff after I got my tablet out! he was actually interested...' that approach would work out okay probably.

I don't have any social media accounts to chat with, so if I somehow managed to get in position of exchanging chat information (modern day hip equivalent of exchanging numbers), would chatting with steam be acceptable?

Thanks for the check. Sounds like you're off to a really good start if she initiated the date. She must be excited to meet you (and a little bit starved for male attention). Start thinking of a place you can take her afterwards if the date goes well.

As for the conversation, just get her to talk about herself. Try to make it less of an interview and just try to riff on stuff you both enjoy. Don't just talk about a certain anime, but be opinionated about it (think of some funny criticisms from /a/ to get her to laugh).

Don't be negative or pessimistic. You want her come to back to you because you are fun, so don't tell her about any depression or muh anxiety or any weaknesses you have.

What do you mean a place afterwards? Like another place to hangout after the date?

Also how much texting before the date. She keeps texting me a lot. Like it's been the whole freakin day.

Heading off to the same job I've had since I was 16. It involves constant interaction with people, and I've gotten so good at faking being personable they've put me in charge of a bunch of other people as well.
I hate every second, but I've been working there 12 years and nothing else pays as good. I feel completely trapped.
>>
>>39589245
Just another relaxed place to hang out. Are you going to a bar or coffee? Try an ice cream place.

>>39589269
Let her come to you. If she keeps initiating texts then feel free to reply, but sounds like you have a bit of an edge so feel free to stop responding and let her sweat a little.

What is she texting about? You don't want to reveal everything about yourself before you actually go on a date, otherwise you'll have nothing to talk about and make it boring. I'd give her short answers and try to keep her from forcing more conversation. Always save most of the conversation for irl.
>>
>>39589212
Haha, at least it was schoolgirls. Had the same shit happening to me recently, but it was a kindergarten group.

I guess it feels good to be mired by somebody.

>>39589381
we are literally typing out paragraphs as I type this post. We're talking about the New Blade Runner movie. Ice cream sounds good. Also the date is bar. She is also a bartender.

ive been fucking around from 21-26 trying to find something that my retarded ass can feasibly do and decided to go for an AAS/cert type 2 year program in IT about a year ago. im going to get my A+ in the next two months or so and should finish the 'degree' in a year and some. from what i've seen searching through forums and job postings i could likely get some tier 1 help desk job. it's shit but would be the slight pay raise i need to free my parents from my autism. i would go for it if you don't have any other ideas or try to learn another trade.
>>
>>39589567
This shit is difficult anon. Especially when you work connected with social media, or just a office drone bored out of his mind infront of PC.

How would you go about it?
>>
>>39589509
Very nice anon! It's always an ego boost when you pick up a bartender or waitress. Did you ask her out at work? This is actually my bread and butter since I work in the restaurant industry and have gone on dates with a ton of waitresses and bartenders.

What works for me is talking about craft beer or the best items on the menu (since it's part of their job to know about that shit), craziest customer interaction, people walking out on their tab. Ask her how she handles herself if she has to toss out some drunk guys.
>>
>>39589625
that's good advice to talk about. No we met on tinder today, got her #, then she set up a date. The bad part, is I don't dress hipster at all. Just polos and jeans.
>>
>>39589728
I'm guessing you're a decent looking dude since you got a date with a bartender. Ditch the uptight polo and wear a nice fitted shirt. It's a casual bar so dress casual. She obviously doesn't care that you don't dress like a hipster since she's asking you out on a date.

Get a styled haircut if you got time, trim your nails and shower before hand for sure.
>>
>>39589786
Where can I get a styled hair cut and fitted shirts?
>>
>>39589869
Google the local barbershop.
JC Penny or Kohl's for the shirt. And by fitted I guess I meant slim fit.

>>39589900
Oh yea, and if you have facial hair, ask them to trim and shape your beard and do your eyebrows.

It's a general thing, can be different for each man. It's a gym tip, but it does actually work. Doing leg workout can bring your test by up to 20%. Especially if you haven't had much experience\didn't workout prior.

I know some people just can't at all, but I think I still have hairs popping up in new places. I stopped gaining height years ago, dick stopped before then. My chest hair looks like it might be getting thicker.

Am I still in the late stages of puberty? Don't have any brothers for reference but all older men in family have full beards.

Am I going to make it?

I remember when I was a fatbot and just started losing weight, my weapon of choice was bicycle. That shit got unbearable during summer with all the skimpy outfits and short skirts all around me.

Is there at least a little stubble, or just a complete baby-face? Maybe some ointments or shit like it?

I had my first facial growth back when I was in 8th grade and alrdy made a decision to keep it. It was hell, going thru high-school with a facial hair.

But in the end I'm happy I made that decision. Can't imagine myself without a beard, don't even think my parents can.

Varg's only here for the beard.
>>
>>39590491
I can get away with shaving just twice a week otherwise I look like a teenager trying to show off their first sprouts.

Distribution is main issue rather than speed of growth

Hmm, there could be a lot of stuff wrong, from lack of vitamins to poor diet affecting it.

If I don't take daily vitamins I'm getting mad itch and irritation under and around, for example. But this is just my reaction.

Try not shaving at all for like 3+ months. Yeah, it'll look like you're just fell out of a dumpster, but hopefully it can actually grow.

29, recovering from a car accident. i still live with my parents. i had someone interested in me until she found out i still lived with my parents, heard that i like to play video games. she said she could see us playing video games and not going out. i had a seizure driving home from a friend's house.

that's rough man, as a housebound NEET this hits close to home. I wouldn't really mind going out anywhere but I'd rather not waste a lot of money and wouldn't really know anywhere special to go anyways and it would only ever be going out just to appease her, which might also be a turn off for her

I'm having a really hard time dealing with my new boss bros, my old boss left and he was a total bro. I work at an office and know how to do my new boss' job better than her but she's in charge because of seniority. She's super rude to everyone so whenever anyone from another section has a question they just come to me instead of asking her.

At this point I'm fed up with her attitude and lack of skill so I've just been pointing out in public everytime she messes up something basic, I can't quit the job yet so I have to stay here a couple of months. How do you deal with someone like this.
>>
>>39591147
Is there a higher tier manager above that chick? Maybe talk to them and just ask to keep an eye out on her? As in compare your work and what she does + tell that people are actually coming to you for advice.
>>
>>39591147
Suck it up or she's probably going to find a way to get you out the door, unless you thin she's gonna quit.
>>
>>39591190
There is but I also got a new higher tier manager this week so right now he has no idea how the office is

>>39591294
I've been working with this idiot for two years almost, at this point I can't keep holding back especially when she teaches new people how to do things the wrong way which will come back to bite us in the ass. It wasn't this bad when she didn't have any power but god damn she's power tripping hard now that no one is there to control her.

Oldbots, do you think it's possible to find somebody you can call a friend and vice versa after 27+?

How would you go about it, where would you even search? My best friend lives in another country now and after 4+ years I need a real person to relate to.
>>
>>39591608
Work, possibly get to know one person with a bunch of friends and see if any fit. It'll probably take a while to find someone who isn't a chore to hang out with
>>
>>39591827
Tried it, as in searching for said person at workplace. All are either too young\old or just completely different interests.

And I don't think it'll be fine talking all the shit I like with people I work with.

I've tried some gatherings, like tabletop stuff and general discussion clubs, just out of desperation. Seems like people just go to these things to find somebody to fuck.

Enormously successful or enormously fat?

I saw some thicc girl who has blown up at least 200lbs in under 3 years the other day.

I went to a shitty high school and one guy is an Engineer at a defence contractor, one chick is a mathematical at some tech start up, one Finance sales/analyst guy and one tradie who owns his own business now, everyone else is a complete wagie, only 4 single mums though

What are the most successful/successful people you guys know of?

Wagecucking it, I only work four days a week but it still tires me out. Yesterday I swore under my breath a bunch to deal with the existential crisis going on in my mind and today I noticed that autumn is almost here.
I always get anxious as fuck this time of year. Maybe it's because it was when I'd have to go back to school when I was younger, I'm not sure.
I wish I lived somewhere warmer.

My roommate is such an insufferable piece of shit sometimes. I just fucking try to live my life and he has to fuck with me. He intentionally engineers situations that make things awkward for me and potentially fucks up friendships, and is 100% the biggest fucking cockblock I have ever met in my entire goddamn life

I've been getting along really well with someone I met through him, and we hang out and she's been texting me randomly just because she wants to, it's great. Then suddenly today he got home and explained that he had made her think something that is embarrassing for both me and her, just because he found it amusing to do so. She overreacts to stuff like that sometimes, so who knows, can she might just decide to distance herself from me now. Its FUCKING AGGRAVATING AND I DON'T KNOW WHY HE LIKES FUCKING WITH MY ALREADY MISERABLE LIFE SO MUCH

Yes the A word I avoided saying it because of how touchy people here get. I compare myself to other people and then it becomes obvious as I have never made any effort to gain affection from a woman( or man). My need for a relationship is far below natural levels. the only downside is that It just makes it feel like others are able to find more meaning in life through relationships, such as having children. I would love to have kids, but a single guy adopting, yeah right.
