How do I revert back from this?

It used to be so easy, just smoke and play some vidya if I felt like it. Maybe drink and eat some fast food with friends. Fuck my high school girlfriend all the time. Still get my shit done and not give a fuck about anything beyond that.

Everything fucking sucks now. No matter how much I workout or gain "success" in life, it just feels worse. No gf, no more natural enjoyment for life, just dragging on as a shell of a person. The craziest thing is, people THINK you are growing as a person, just based off how you SEEM to be doing. No matter how much you do, it's not enough, and there's nothing to look forward to when you finish. You just do it because you feel like you have to. In fact, I don't know the last time I did something just because I wanted to do it. Even video games feel like a chore. Fuck, what I would do to go back.

This is how being a grown up feels like, get used to it. Or alternatively, work on your body, work on your mind, preserve your health and strive towards self-improvement as much as possible. If you do that, then you'll be better off than the vast majority of people. The cherry on top would be achieving freedom from wageslavery as well, but let me tell you - you can have a good life being a wageslave if you achieve all of the things I mentioned first, but your life will absolutely suck even as a billionaire if you neglect your physical and emotional health.

Oh boy you think things are bad now just wait until you start wagecucking

You think things are boring now... just wait. Working 8+ hours every day on something you don't care the slightest about (making shekels for wagecorp, inc. will make your pointless-seeming college work seem like the most meaningful and important thing imaginable) with two days respite per week (in which you're too worn down to do anything anyway) and nothing to look forward to but the same meaningless and boring routine stretching ahead for literally DECADES

>>11261009
>making things up
I didn't say that your whole life has to revolve around it, now did I? My point was that it should be the last thing on your to-do list that gets cut. If you have time left over after self-improvement, it's totally okay to use it for other things, but those other things should not come above self-improvement.

>>11261023
A good start would probably be to stop browsing this shithole, but you know as well as I do that once you're here, you're here forever. Aside from that, one thing that has given me purpose is a clear worldview and an understanding of how my actions fit into that view. You can't just be moping around and feeling sorry for yourself, you're literally the result of millions of years of evolution and the successor of countless warriors. Act like it.

most people need to wagecuck to survive. it's that or be a parasite on family or the state, and that only lasts so long and also leads to feeling worthless and aimless. i just hate when half the people on this board suggest "stop wagecucking" when that's only an option for spoiled kids with no qualms living off their parents' wagecucking.

the most annoying thing is there's a big part of me that doesn't even want to stop being a doomer. I feel somewhat justified in my doom - stagnant wages, smug dumb boomer bosses, can never afford to buy a house despite a wage well above national average while said boomers take all my money in the form of rent, normies are irritating, central banks and government stealing money, etc. etc.

To stop being a doomer I'd have to ignore all these things and become an NPC/normie.

There's also a self-sabotaging element that I don't want to become happy by following the boomer path because I know the effort required to reach boomer-tier in 2018 from scratch takes the same effort as it took to reach millionaire-tier in 1970. Then when I do reach that level all the boomers will be like "see, amazing what a firm handshake and hard work gets you" when in fact I had to go to university and rack up enormous debts (which they didn't have to), move to another city for work, live in a rented room in a tiny house in the roughest area of town while walking to work and not ever going out and living so incredibly frugally for half a decade just to get a fucking deposit to buy a stupid flat that's half the size of said boomer's mansion which he bought with his shitty retail job 40 years ago and paid off 2 decades ago. IT'S NOT THE SAME

I'm more or less the pinnacle of professional success for my age (about to turn 30), but I feel so overworked and so resentful of the amount of student debt I had to take on to get myself into this position. I work at one of the most prestigious law firms in the world and I make a ton of money, but the cost of living is high and I have mountains of student debt.

Pretty much this.

I'm more than 3 years into wagecucking since college. The sad thing is, even if you're doing something that's somewhat interesting to you, you still grow tired of doing it day after day, week after week, year after year...

Like sure, you're doing something more interesting than sitting at a desk pushing papers for Mr. Nosenberg, but it's still the same shit every day. You work, pay your bills, pay your student loans/mortgage/whatever debts, repeat.

Then there's the annoying cyclic problems that can happen. Like, you pay for a car to get to work so that you can have a car, and then that car breaks and needs a $500 repair cause of wear and tear from driving to work 5 times a week.

I get a bit of a high from doing well in job interviews, even the change in weather no longer gives me a good feeling.

U need to get ur act together and lose age. It's breathing that makes you keep gaining age like you do. First you have to count each breath of the day, then the next day, breathe one less times. It doesn't seem like much, but just keep subtracting one time every day and it will add up.

was going to post pretty much what >>11261062 posted. i disliked college too, but what came after words sucked even more (grad school) and what came after that was far worse than the previous two (wage cucking).

i can't even enjoy my weekends because they are over before i can even do half the shit i would like to and then it's back to the same fucking grind. the worst part is that i work in r&d where the expectations are high, but the rewards aren't nor is there any real training. so you're constantly being squeezed and expected to provide results out of your ass.
