Since graduating college last year I’ve been feeling like my life is pretty much over. Nothing to look forward to. Any job that I can probably get will be unfulfilling and stressful. The idea of marriage and children just scares me. I’m just depressed all the time or most of the time at least.

My isolation from people is slowly getting worse and worse. I was failing to make coherent sentences to a classmate out of some type of autism, thank god it was a woman, they are so use to dealing with autistic shit by men. Nobody has faith and me and I have no faith for anyone, if I have no expectations i'll never be disappointed. I'm just like every other sad frog on here, slowly rolling into suicide. I'm slowly realizing how incompetent and stupid I am/was, the memories of the past still burn in the present shimmering in pain.

I am happy because I am finally different. I changed into a better version of myself, I can feel it in the depths of my soul.
It took me a life but I'm finally free from myself, finally, I am someone else.
I don't care about heavy existential shit anymore. I have accepted that the future is bleak and the only thing awaiting us is pain and death, but it troubles me not. This new me is ready to live and die, to enjoy life for as long as I can and suffer through despair, to fight until the world devours me. I am finally someone else, and I'm ready to live.

The man was an incredible writer:

>It is really incredible how meaningless and insignificant when seen from without, and how dull and senseless when felt from within, is the course of life of the great majority of men. It is weary longing and worrying, a dreamlike staggering through the four ages of life to death, accompanied by a series of trivial thoughts. They are like clockwork that is wound up and goes without knowing why. Every time a man is begotten and born the clock of human life is wound up anew, to repeat once more its same old tune that has already been played innumerable times, movement by movement and measure by measure, with insignificant variations. Every individual, every human apparition and its course of life, is only one more short dream of the endless spirit of nature, of the persistent will-to-live, is only one more fleeting form, playfully sketched by it on its infinite page, space and time; it is allowed to exist for a short while that is infinitesimal compared with these, and is then effaced, to make new room. Yet, and here is to be found the serious side of life, each of these fleeting forms, these empty fancies, must be paid for by the whole will-to-live in all its intensity with many deep sorrows, and finally with a bitter death, long feared and finally made manifest. It is for this reason that the sight of a corpse suddenly makes us serious.

Poorly, like always. Failed all my university classes last semester, partly due to living in a massive dorm. Terrible, oppressive atmosphere in my tiny room exacerbated by sickening roomates in my suite. I stopped going to classes halfway through the semester and just walked around at night and watched movies. Now my parents want me to go to community college, which I'll probably yield to even though I know it's going to be horrible. I just want to run away to Russia and become a conductor in Siberia. Naive. "There's nothing here for me to do, nowhere here for me to go, no one here for me to meet."

Could any /lit/ geniuses provide some advice? I love to master things and have a pathological need to be competent but since I'm a socially inept NEET, virgin autist I don't want to be viewed as incompetent, I'll just flee the situation. For example, in a group project and if I don't feel I 100% know the material, I'll just skip it because of the terror it brings me to be judged and the potential that I might mess. I'd rather seperate myself from the pack and die by myself than let the whole group fail.

I have the same mentalilty for relationships too. I hardly ever talk to women, I never kissed or held hands or anything and I don't want to start because of the women discovering that I'm new to relationships and therefore incompetent.

Am I just cursed to this mentality forever? Forever hiding yet wanting to be competent but since you need experience to be competent, I'll forever be stuck in this loop

No because, thankfully, relationships are supposed to be about human connection and not one-upmanship. Hopefully, a woman finds you and loves you for what you are. It'll take several years and accomplishments, though, only if you're not fat. Even Pessoa had young poon all over him in his 30s. I'd say that's your best bet, be in your 30s, somewhat thin, have a distinct look to you, be handsome, be detached, be skilled at something (acclaim doesn't matter, women love discovering hidden gems, especially young ones) and this is your best bet. Authors to recommend to create this detached mindset: Musil, Dostoevsky, Celine, Pessoa, Kafka, Schopenhauer, Nietzsche, Salinger Joyce (only Ulysses), Proust (creates some profoundness, although he is different),

My old fucking therapist would eat in front of me or go on his IPAD every fucking session. He then asked autistic 15 year old me, who had no friends and no romantic life, if I saw Kate Upton at a party would I take advantage of her. Mind you, I had not masturbated in my life at that point, and I'm still probably a repressed homosexual and have had only a handful of sexual encounters with women in my life (all after I was 21, I'm 23 now), and his main concern was that I would rape Kate Upton at a party, because I said I would take advantage of her when I had no idea what it meant, and I meant get her phone number. He told my parents, and I told them I meant sex in order for them to think I wasn't a faggot. My father slapped the shit out of me, and my mom started crying. That's therapy for you.

I'm not a NEET cuz I'm in a local college but barely attending and just taking a few classes. When I was younger I used to be super into robotics and I was probably pretty impressive for my age and got invited to science fairs which were held in a semi prestigious university in my country to compete with other young-science minded people. I was just in a regular public middle school at the time and was competing with other older highschoolers, alot of which were from these really preppy and prestigious private schools that requires entry exams to get in. i did pretty well overall but of course I wasn't the best. I still thought back then that I had potential but I wasn't cocky by any means and was always insecure and had the same need to feel competent and when I wasn't I wold punch my head and slap myself and stuff like that

i don't know what happened. If I just got lazy, my social ineptitude, my pathological need to feel competent and in scenarios where I do feel competent I'd rather leave (I'd rather myself fail than let the whole group down or even not be the main contributor in the group since it makes me feel guilty when someone does more work than me).

Thanks for asking. I notice how asynchronous/nonlinear how life can be, one step forward, one step backward, a leap forward, a tumble on your ass backward.I'm in competition with myself, the old me, never content, yet strangely content with my discontent. I am comfortable in a state of discomfort. I embrace the viewpoint that life is struggle and that pain is unavoidable. Most glorious of all, I want less. I no longer feel pangs of envy or covet the unobtainable. There is work to do.

I have a thing where, before bed, I sometimes daydream scenarios similar to this Ivan the Terrible painting. Typically I am someone like an orphan who has been scorned by the people meant to take care of me, and then I get fatally wounded, and they try to comfort me as I die. If it's been a long time since I've done it, I'll cry quietly. Sometimes I get an erection from it, but I don't feel arousal and I have no desire to masturbate during it.

He was a basketball player. He expanded the game of basketball. Basketball is a consumerist hobby that millions of Americans have made their life's worth.

I just moved to a big city but it's really hard to make friends or get a gf. City is a glorified giant suburb connected by freeways so spontaneous interactions are non-existent. All of my hobbies are solitary and if not clubs for them are full of exclusively older men. I sometimes will come across a cute girl at a cafe or something similar but approaching them just feels weird, not that I think I'm going to get rejected, but knowing that the whole room will be listening and silently judging scares me off. I refuse to try online dating because I know I can get much better quality woman if they saw me irl because of the nature of those apps. Nightlife to meet people is a no go because I need preexisting friends in order to go without looking creepy. Like an entry level job that demands experience kind of situation.

I said he had not accomplishments in an existential sense and then said nobody accomplishes anything in that sense. I said nothing "worse" accomplishing, but meant nothing worth accomplishing. It is a scam, he was a basketball player the fulfilled hedonistic pleasures for the masses. His loss only means something to those who knew him. The rest of the country only views him as a great player, and he retired several years ago, so it's not a national loss.

I feel pretty terrible. Unwanted. Shit career.

My best friend died in 2018, and I ditched the rest of my friends because they had just turned out to be losers. I have acquaintances now but I don’t really connect with any of them. I imagine the conversations I’d have with my best friend sometimes — as if he never got addicted to heroin and died. That’s 15 years of developing a certain kind of humor etc. Not sure I’ll find that anywhere else.

I need to quit coffee and tobacco, which have become a mild problem for me, making me feel more depressed. I need friends. I need to make career moves. I need to find my peace.

You are wrong. Even if you want to consider society as broken and not worth of conserving, there are many ways through which you can earn a living and make society better.
I strive to become a Chi Kung and Kung Fu instructor/master. In essence I strive to be the best version of myself until im so good at it that people pay me for it because it benefits them too. That has nothing to do with maintaining a broken society.

Just finishing the first semester of a 12 months long exchange program in one of the top 5 universities in Germany and realizing that my third-world-country university was just as good but much harder. I still haven't made any good friends and my German is still the same solid 5/10 — and I'm not very hopeful that the next semester will bring anything new. I'm increasingly more angry at the fact that having to pay for shit in euro or dollar for a period makes your curriculum automatically better in third-world-logic. But fuck it, I'm not going to give up or anything. I'll keep spending my scholarship on the shitty german food and thanking immigration for the kebabs for 6 more months if needed. Hopefully I'll be able to at least read something good untranslated at the end.

I'm doing STEM, so the language problem isn't that bad, and 2/3 of the courses are in English, so...

I I don't have any idea about Russian, but an ok B2 with the help of a copy of the textbook in english was fine for me. Group work is ok because almost everyone in college speaks English, so I could speak in it and they would reply either in German or English. But I would avoid classes that require you to do presentations or write essays. the professors didn't mind my broken German, but it was quite painful to speak in public.

And avoid only making friends with other foreigners, they don't have much tying them there and might all disappear one by one (personal experience).

Look, I have a friend who is currently in Tokyo and he is loving it, so even though my experience wasn't the best I still recomend it.

Not good. Antibiotic resistant ghonorrhea from fucking 13 thai whores raw. Acid reflux and stomach pain from abusing alcohol and cocaine for years. Still addicted to lorazepam and alprazolam. Have to take a betablocker and any sort of benzo anywhere i go with me because of paranoia, anxiety and heart palpilations, which might aswell be in my head. Every time my stomach hurt i think its my heart and i go paranoid. Sleep is shit because of it. Have ghosted over 40 friends. Used to be the most popular kid in school until i just snapped and went into full isolation. I love being alone. Im my best friend and worst enemy. There is only me and my mind, in constant battle. Sometimes i win, sometimes i lose. Lifting weights and hiking for hours is relief. Splitting a whore apart is top but i feel better on semen retention.

Just got home from a second date with this girl. We ate and talked for two hours before she said that she wanted to go meet some classmates to work on a group project, I said sure and we paid and left the place. We just walked together for 20 seconds and she said the food was good and then we said bye.

Problem is;we didn't talk of meeting again at all. The departure was so sudden, and I don't know if she is uninterested or if I came of as uninterested. Tbh the conversation was kinda boring and shitty, so I'm guessing she wasn't into it. So I'm considering sending a preemptive text about me feeling that we didn't "wibe" and that she is a really sweet girl etc but it won't work.

Because I feel certain she won't text to initiate a new meeting, and if I try to I feel she will just say no.

Am I in the right?

Ego is a really stupid thing, I feel that if I "reject" her by sending the preemptive text about us not being a match, I can go for the next girl right away. If she rejects me however, I take it personally.

This is really irrational, seeing that whether or not I am the one who sends the text first, does not change whether or not she is into me. So I am still getting rejected, even when I engage in this childish behavior, though my brain doesn't think of it that way

You can't imagine how much I miss even sleeping in whenever I feel like it. The term wageslavery is dead on.

>really just miss online girl
Fuck, I don't get it. She was everything I could have wanted, she was perfect. She did the most for me. So why did I throw it all away? Maybe I'm naive to ever think it could have worked out, being in separate countries and both being in times of our lives where it just wasn't feasible. But why did we have to say goodbye? All I do is fantasize about meeting her again, and being with her, but if it ever does happen, it won't be for a few years at the earliest. I don't know what to do, I just want to talk to her again

Can't relate to this sort of thing. Didn't have a happy childhood. Been NEETing while I figure some stuff out, and I'm having more fun now than I ever did as a kid because now I can buy candy and alcohol. Which is to say, I'm fucking miserable, which puts my childhood in perspective

yeah especially if it is book you really need to think for like philosophy or a book with complex themes, or just anything.

I have gotten somewhat better but still drinking half the days of a month gets in the way of my reading time.

Why even all this planing and effort I wasn't satisfied? I could make another 5 years plan, go cold turkey and kept pushing the boulder, but the truth is that existence is a mistake.

Sounds like you just decided to throw everything away instead of taking what was good and changing the rest. Or you built a facade around you of everything that you were told would make you happy. The struggle may be internal, but having some utilitarianism for the world around you is indispensable.

Not that anon, but I liked it a lot more when I was younger. Seeing it again, Sunrise seems immature and angsty but fun 8/10, Sunset is very depressing and forgettable, but the most realistic and erudite 9/10, and Midnight is fucking amazing in every sense of the word 10/10. Boyhood is also 10/10 kino fuck the tv neckbeards. Good Linklater films are a treasure. For me (all the one's I'd give an 7/10+, I've seen them all except A Scanner Darkly)

1. Boyhood.
2. Midnight
3. Everybody Wants Some
4. Sunset
5. Slacker
6. Sunrise
7. Waking Life
8. Dazed and Confused
9. Bernie
10. Tape
11. School of Rock.

Honestly I found that the Before trilogy gets better with age and experience, I kinda expected it to feel immature and cringey the 2nd time around but it only got better. Then I showed it to my gf, who rarely likes anything I show her, and she loved it

Confused about staying in college or entering the army

I missed out on this thread but I'll tell anyone who is still here anyway.

In school, for a degree that I am interested in but don't know what to do with. Want a wife and kids but am quickly aging out and dating any of my college classmates makes me feel icky. I'm twice their age. Some of them would bang though.

I'm getting good grades and planning for the future. This is something I've never really done, ever. Feels strange to finally be invested in myself but whatever. We're all gonna make it lads. Except that guy in the other thread who repeatedly said f*** the Holy Spirit. He's going to perdition.

it's not your last chance i'm sure. army was a fine time for me, one of the best in fact. you'll learn a lot that way, and you will be changed whether you think the training affects you or not. good news is you get college mostly paid for afterwards. for three years anyway.
