You will die.

You are not forgiven. You will find your end, regardless.

Your pain will end.
The world will end.
The universe will end.

It will be an absolute end. There will never be anything after it. No rebirth, no potential for life to occur again.

It will take longer than you expect.
It will be a lot quicker than you think.

Not a single thing in your life has mattered, not even the few moments you hold close. Nothing you may ever do will matter.

Rich people and corporate overlords are some of the most long term-minded people there are. The courts had to go out of their way to stop them from establishing wills that would set rules for their property hundreds of years in the future. They wouldn't sell out their children's future (and also their own later in life) just for a quick buck now, they're already rich.

Yes, the environment takes a good beating from humans. No, we are not in any respect 'killing' it, or even our own future with it. I see the claim that we are is a form of wishful thinking that something interesting and earth-shaking is going to happen, akin to what got so many people instantly believing covid was actually dangerous when it clearly was just another flu.

I have no evidence, no medical studies to show that this is so, but I have no doubts either. I believe that to get out of depression, tiredness, fatigue, and all that shit, first you have to work on the body, since a healthy body means a healthy mind, for this it is good to do a sport, no matter what it is with such that it keeps our body busy. Another important factor is studying, it doesn't really matter what, it doesn't matter if it's for university, school, or for yourself, you have to do it in order to keep your mind occupied in something productive. I would also say that looking for a job, or generating income with an enterprise, since this will keep our minds and bodies busy, while giving us money, in itself gives us a reason to move forward.

Another important point is to stop comparing yourself with others, stop thinking that the other is better than you because you have more knowledge, money, or physical condition. Besides, it is very silly to think about issues such as superiority or inferiority, we are all human, we all have problems and difficulties in life, of course there are degrees of this, but this does not have to be a limitation. You have to focus on yourself, on your problems, on your virtues, on your life, and not on that of others.

Another issue is guilt, and remorse, which depending on the person can be the easiest part, or difficult to overcome, because it is easy to forgive others, but sometimes it is difficult, if not impossible, to forgive oneself. No matter how dirty your hands are, they can always be cleaned. You have to accept your sins, accept what you did wrong, and live with it. Going to a priest, a psychologist, or telling someone you trust what you did, this can help, it doesn't matter if you think psychology is a joke, or if you don't believe in God, the important thing is to get out somehow the weight you are carrying.

My least favorite part of this thread is going to a psychiatrist, and being prescribed drugs, which in itself sucks. But these in some cases are necessary to be able to do the above. Non-magical drugs, and you can't expect them to solve all your problems, but they are an excellent complement to do some of the steps mentioned in this thread.

Soon to be 30 year old virgin? Eeyore 22/12/29(Thu)04:38 No. 6931 ID: 2b5fda [Reply]

Shooting this into the void probably but i am grasping at straws right now.

So as the title says i am 29 year old male virgin soon to turn 30. I remember myself at 18,19 years old wishing i wouldn't end up like this but in the blink of an eye it's my reality now.

To keep the story short(might expand if anyone reads this shit.) i'm in this situation because of my fucked up head(social anxiety mostly, very extreme at some points, overthinking and being anxious even about a single word.

Now that i have kinda "bruteforced" my anxiety i have an intense interest of meeting a woman, a gf if you will. But one last thing that fucking paralyzes me is the fact that i kinda made my hair start to grey well before my time. My mother noticed a few grey hairs when i was 22 or 23 i think. I had an intense period of my life when i induced myself into massive stress for basically nothing, bullshit.
And then at age 24 when i mustered the courage to download tinder(actually got matches, and women ready to go on dates) i chickened out because i was owerweight. I somehow managed to drop ~30kg of weight to get back on tinder. While doing this i "forgot" about my grey hair. And when i was finally ready to get back to try and date i started to look at photos my friend took of me for tinder and i started to think about my fucking hair again. And the last nail in my coffin was my colleagues(95% women) started to notice
and comment on my grey hair, not with bad intent more with shock, pitty. But it literraly destroyed the last drop of dignity i had in my looks. And i fully shot down after that. Literally every interraction i had with a person i was thinking if they will spot my fukcking grey hair. I haven't taken a full focused look at myself (hair and face) for about 5 years. And since then i defaulted to a buzz cut as my default hairstyle.
And now in my fucked up life when i start to get even the smallest micro sun ray shining on me. Got a better job after all that nearly all woman job .


Then i fucked up and "lost" that job. Bummed around and did nothing again. Got a better job that is my current one (nepotism, not gonna lie)
My current job is all male and my immediate colleagues are mostly in the 18-24 bracket. All of them have gf's of course. So they sometimes joke around and tease me when i will get a gf.
Important side note if you have read all that shit up this point. If we stay at colleague, aquintance level you won't know that is me. I can pass as a "mostly" normal dude, maybe shy, quiet but not a weirdo or fucked up i really am.

Nobody cares about grey hair, especially not on men. For some it might make them actually look better, but even if it doesn't then you can just dye it.

All I took from this is that you still have a friend who took your picture. I'd either be doing a selfie or asking my mom to do it. You're a thirty year old adult and even relatively normal. Best to act like it, and that's my advice.

Depression and anxiety are some of the most detrimental things to your outlook on life. I had an extremely traumatic event (don't ask because I won't answer) that put everything in my brain out of balance. Post-traumatic stress disorder, depression, and almost all of their symptoms I'm going through right now.

When I discovered undeniably that I was gay, I went through a severe clinical depression that lasted 2 weeks. It turned my world upside down, and my will to live was progressively going downhill until one day I woke up and realized the chemicals rebalanced themselves out or whatever agent caused me to feel better.

If there is a God, I beg and pray to feel good again. We don't realize what we have until they are gone. Be grateful always for what you do have, even if it is the bare minimum. If I make it out from this spell, I will never take for granted happiness again.

What are some views on tapering off all medication and battling all the anxieties and depressions head-on until the emotions resolve themselves? I was in the hospital for suicide-watch patients for nearly a month due to this trauma and one woman with psychosis said to never bury your experiences because they will come back to bite you. Is the opposite of this to try to face all the emotions head-on without medication until you feel better? Or is medication the only way out? Is a slow tapering from medication the best solution to rebalance things out again? Is time truly the healer of all wounds?

Please help me. :'( Any advice that worked for you is greatly appreciated.

I've come to realize that, for most people, love is only a dualism that arises because of hate. People love their country because they hate other countries. People love their race or their religion or their god because they hate others. You can easily see that there is at least a correlation between how fervently a person hates the out-group, with how obsessively praising they are of their in-ground. People have children of their own, and love them, but this must of course come via excluding others. Indeed, in order to maintain the hero delusion of their own child in most circumstances, they must vilify the other party, whether that's the other kid in a fight, or a teacher who passed down a bad grade. The more they hate the other, the more they love their child. It's a dualism, and a zero-sum. What's the alternative? To love every child as equally as your own?? If that were possible, nepotism wouldn't exist.

So because of this, the best method to push away your hatred of yourself is to hate others, and therefore love yourself. That's what most people do. They think there is nothing wrong with themselves, and that everything they are is good, and everything they are not is bad.


As for medication, I don't really have any advice because I don't use any. Some people can get over mental issues without medication, some cannot. For myself, I have likely been depressed basically all of my life, and cannot necessarily say if it's a dysfunction because I honestly have REALLY GOOD REASONS for my poor outlook right now. I also do experience positive emotions, albeit rarely, so it's likely not clinical. Of course, in this country, I couldn't be diagnosed unless I suddenly found myself in desperate need to make about $10,000 disappear into the wallet of some retard who would most definitely call the cops if I told him the reasons I'm depressed.

As for anxiety, I'm actually a good example. I inherited it from my father, who has been on occasional light medication for it his entire life. For me, I had severe anxiety and panic attacks for a few years in my mid 20's. I never wanted to be medicated because a dose sufficient enough to, basically, tranquilize me, would turn me into a zombie. I suffered blackouts and memory lapses the three days (at least I think it was three) that they had me on lorazepam after I was hospitalized for panic, and after that I threw away the rest of the prescription. So as an alternative, I developed methods to control it, first through music and manipulating my emotional state to anger, and later through yogic breathing. That last one proved highly effective and has helped me ever since, but I couldn't possibly tell you if it would work for anyone else. You actually have to believe it's going to work, of course.

I have insomnia, depression and stress. My sleep is very bad and my mood is not good at all. I feel like I can't do anything because I'm so tired almost all the time, but I don't know what to do. I already take melatonin but it doesn't help me much. Can anyone give me advice on how to deal with this problem?




Homelessness and Wandering the States Eeyore 22/11/26(Sat)10:12 No. 6905 ID: 024284 [Reply]

Real quick, I'm a schizophrenic NEET on disability but because Murica I do not make enough to live off of on my own. I've always had to take roommates to share the rent with, and because most people don't do that for free, it's usually a romantic partner I move in with. Because I'm vulnerable and stupid, I end up falling for a person who hurts me, or even starts beating me and insulting me just to put me down. So I run away. I call a friend somewhere else in the States who can move me somewhere else, and then it starts again. I meet a person, they hurt me, I leave.

You get the point, basically. Medicaid is state based, so when you move elsewhere, you need to reapply for that state's version of Medicaid. As I've already been to half the states in the country, and already moved twice this year, it's been very hard to keep my medical benefits steady (they can take up to 100 days to approve an applicant after the forms are filled out or, if you have SSI, respond to a change of address.)

I can't get my meds right now so it's harder and harder to go outside, I can barely get food, and might be moving again in another few months too.

My family says they're willing to house and feed me and take care of the cost of my medicine, but the only stipulation is that I cannot bring anyone home with me. The problem with this is that I'm extremely codependent, too broken to live for my own sake, so I need someone to lean on and be my purpose. But after 6 or 7 consecutive relationships that turned abusive, I'm really just thinking there isn't much hope for me living comfortably, or doing anything other than struggling like an animal every day to survive.

Are there any other diagnosed schizophrenics here whose conditions are severely disabling? If so, I'd love to know how you're all getting by, because I'm having a really tough time out here. (pic unrelated, just a drawing I did when I moved here)

I'm not a full blown skito but it runs in my family and I have had vivid experiences where I have hear voices. Only a handful of times but I think this could be the onset of my genetic predispostion to it, anywho; I'll tell you what every therapist has told me: Change the narrative you tell yourself. It seems lame but it really is the only thing that truly works. Read some stoics like Marcus Aurelius and learn how to control your reactions to your emotions better because the truth is that the world is a cold and dark place and doesn't give a shit about you or anyone and will do everything in its power to try and kill you and will if you let it.

You are a meaningless spec floating through an infinite cosmos. Just choose to be ok the best you can. I understand what its like to be on food stamps and be codependent with an abusive partner and that is what has helped me regain my independence. That and an insatiable thirst for the truth and this is what I have come to realize. Good luck.

We've met. Maybe not you, but somebody just like you. We were friends for a while, and you helped me through a tough time. I want nothing more than to go back to that, and repay it. I can work again with the meds I'm taking, I have a house and health insurance. But she's gone, and I'm alone. Maybe the answer is to trust your family. Let the co-dependence fall through until you are hopeless and all you have is them to protect you from yourself. Because everybody is somebody's everything. Nobody is nothing. I love you anon.
