I wasted my entire life. I'm now 25 years old. I always wanted to be an artist but I deep down inside felt like I wouldn't be liked or I wasn't attractive enough. Now I don't care and just want to do it, but during the day, I keep thinking about my age and whether it's too late since most popular artists are in their young 20s or their teens. I feel like giving up and I'm suicidal. The more I continue with this line of thinking, the more time I end up wasting, and it results in a vicious cycle.

Even if I make it as a singer, my mind says "what's the point? your success will last a few years maximum, then it'll all come crashing down. You won't be able to fuck younger women by then anyways and it's all over."

What do I do? Fuck I can't take this anymore so I am deciding to post this on the only board that I think is smart. I'm going to get banned for this later I know it but for now please fucking help me.

You have shit priorities and live in a fantasy land.
I don't now if you can be a singer, you probably can't, it's just the odds.
You should learn to fix cars or weld and make 40k a year in 16 months.
If you already make an OKAY salary then learn to like your life, people are only sad sacks because they choose to be.
Women are dumb anyway and fucking the ones that are pretty because they're pretty may aswell be jerking off.

Do the self authoring program anon.

You shouldn't do it for 'success', you should do it because it's meaningful.

You're gonna have to provide for yourself, so don't put all your eggs in one basket. There are a lot of other careers that involve singing that don't involve being the center of attention.

Would you want to be a singer even if you aren't famous?

Once you're in a meaningful mode of being, you'll stop suffering.

Listen OP you have been fed bullshit all your life that you are special and unique yet people dont realize that the majority of people are in fact mediocre, so you might as well be good at living your life in mediocrity. Because if you had any semblance of willpower you would be getting off your ass doing something instead of using an /biz for your fucking diary.

Dont kill your self but this anon has a point. If your mind is on women ngmi but just for a second my friend what if your mind was just on yourself to push to become the best you you can be regardless of your age or what anyone else is doing. You can find meaning in your life if you stop fucking crippling yourself to not even fuckin try thats what cowards do and thats not you.

you clearly want attention. that's actually the LAST thing you want. recognition has always been overrated. it's better to find that out sooner before your mind becomes a vegetable

You’re chasing a feeling OP. Tying the accomplishment to an arbitrary age (early 20s) and arbitrary activities (banging hot young girls) is just the workings of an scarcity mindset. The feeling you want can be accomplished in a million ways.

What a fucking joke. Get over yourself. I spent my late teens and entire 20s using drugs, drunk driving, hanging out with scumbags. I only began to change my life in my 30s. Now I have only healthy, positive people in my life, years clean and sober and now own a small business. It's never to late to change, but feeling sorry for yourself will get you nowhere.

Got into AV engineering at 29, not too late anon. All I'd done before that is set up a couple PAs and plug mics in. Find a trade with something in common with prior experience. If it's music, do what I did.

you need to know that even if you told that earth is not flat water around continents still flat. You told that you can be... You can not be anything else then you already are human being.
Many of us think of love as a strong emotion, a feeling we have for another person. Take a wholly different and life-enriching approach to love. Love is something you "do", something you give freely from the heart. Learn how to express yourself nakedly and honestly to your partner, friends, or family, for no other purpose than to reveal what's present or alive in you. Discover what thousands of people around the world already know: A heart to heart connection strengthened by joyfully giving and receiving from the heart. Is that love you longing to experience?

If you like music, give up on being a star. Finding a good group of people to have fun and make music with is its own reward. If you love music, fame and popularity shouldn't even be an issue. Just focus on gitting gud and meeting other musicians.
