No time for hobbies, friends, anything besides coming home completely tired
No social media, never had a gf, never went on date

Can or should I do something?

similar issues with me OP

all i do is work, and if i'm not completely exhausted I workout aswell.

I don't have a social media presence at all too. I was thinking about making an instagram because lets say I do meet a girl, she's going to want my insta, and not having one is creepy to women.
But if I do make an instagram I'll have like 20 followers max, and they'll all be dudes. Sounds even more depressing than just not having one

Dont work more than 40 hours, let them shits fire you when you demand a work life balance. Even if they jew you out of money somehow its not worth it bro. Mental Health is more important than Financial Health
I've seen too many of my friends get stuck in some dicksucking job that saps their energy and time, and surprise surprise they dont have time to upskill, network, do hobbies, anything. So they stay stuck.
I'm not saying become a jobless neet and delude yourself into believing you can bootstrap yourself, I'm saying that working more than 40 hours has on-the-margin financial gains where allowing yourself time to recover and improve will have exponential gains.

FYI - your early 20s are when you grindset and flesh out your resume doing the grunt work at an organization. As you move up in the corporate world (i hope you're not wasting your time digging ditches or working at Wendy's) the work gets less and less and it's more big picture/mental stress than actual hours. Try to move up every 2 years or so to a better/higher paying job until you settle somewhere comfy.

Very rarely you would find gold here. Here it goes:

You’ve to become FIREd, either via starting businesses (repeated, trial & error) or crypto. Introverted people needs often more authority which in corporate normie world you won’t get unless you are highly connected sociopathic executive with an elite MBA.

Secondly, see if you find solace in gardening & permaculture. Seriously pursue it, like many introverted people.

Thirdly, take your time to genuine spiritual girls. They don’t have to be Christian. Many Asian trad girls are spiritual. You’ve to find it.

FIRE, spiritual girl & a permaculture settlement would solve most of your issues. But you got to lift, to make your girl happy & become a man.

THIS WORLD WILL PASS! HAVE HOPE AND KNOW YOUR CREATOR. ESCAPE HELLFIRE:

>Revelation 20:11 & 15 KJV
11 And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them.
-
15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.

Now if you have fear of this, of God... that's the way it is supposed to be, do not be deceived.

>Proverbs 9:10 KJV
10 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.

>How do i get saved?
Repent and believe the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ, that He died for your sins, was buried, and resurrected from the dead the third day.

Repentance is simply a change of heart about yourself. It is written in 2 Corinthians 7:10 that 'godly sorrow' worketh repentance to salvation. It is to have sorrow towards God over what you ARE. The fact that YOU have sinned against God by breaking HIS law makes you a sinner against Him.
You were born corrupt, you are NO good according to scripture. Without Jesus Christ you are worthy and on your way to hell RIGHT NOW. Repentance can be summed up into simply: Coming to God as a sorry sinner...

Call upon and Recieve Jesus Christ as your PERSONAL Lord & Saviour and trust His shed blood on the cross for YOU, and believe that He resurrected.
STOP rejecting the one who DIED for YOU, the one who ROSE again. He is all which can justify a sinner in this time.

The man of this channel 'upgrades' old or new good plain Bible teaching & preaching, making it higher quality, adds scriptures & visuals making it smother and easier to understand.
