Books for re-entering society

[Anonymous No.20414074]

tl;dr I have been somewhat "outside" of the regular society the past couple of years and want to become a proper part of it again, yet on my own terms

>be me, highschoolfag
>kinda big ego but at the same time also depressed and kinda difficult character
>decide to enter the military cause they will pay for my studies and I don't wanna work a shitty student job
>do my basic training, cadet school etc.
>transition to (military) university
>do well academically but totally miss out on usual college experiences, first love, sleeping around, festivals, just trying out new activities that might be fun etc.
>ff. couple of years, depression gets worse also now I feel like I wasted my youth
>ff. yet again, military about to kick me out cause I wouldn't take the clotshot
>be in mid-twenties and have some money saved up and the good will to change myself, but lacking experience, haven't really interacted with normies in years and somewhat mentally unstable

Any fiction/non-fiction books that help you cope with that feel? Any similar stories?

Whatever the answer is, I'm sure it'll be a completely different answer from the dozens of only nominally differentiated "here's my life story, I am... LE SAD!" type of template threads that get posted here every day.

>>20415807
I couldn't care less about being "normal" whatever that is supposed to be. The most "normal" life is fucking depressing, being a wagecuck, paying off a mortgage for the rest of your life, having a wife who is bitchy at best and outrights cheats you if worse, and generally being bound by the way things are going in the world.
I care about being successful maybe, or attractive, or maybe taking the most hedonistic pleasure out of my life, but I certainly don't care about being normal.

But life is also not hanging around emotionally crippled or outright psychopathic people, wageslaving until you can't take it anymore and being miserable all the time. So what else is there to it but a little bit of enjoyment?

Perhaps the most blackpilling moment of my life was my first time hearing a couple of have sex in a neighboring dorm after shortly after I got done with my nightly fap. In that moment I felt like such a loser and a cuck. I had to pleasure myself with my hand and at that same time another man my age was having sex.
Here I am today, still a virgin. That moment left its mark on me - every time I finish masturbating that feeling of being a complete social failure crushes me. I don't know how I keep going.

normies suck. i exited the daycare to Africa. it has been difficult but worth it especially because I got out of NYC before coronahoax. the normies get progressively more normie the further you go along. dont dumb yourself down. dont Harrison Bergeron yourself. take some overseas job (should be easy as military) and never look back

I'm actually considering that at the moment, planning to go to Namibia (large German-speaking community + one of the better subsaharan cunts) and working for one of those companies that offer hunting trips. I also consider doing corporate bullshit in [globohomo city] though, because the pay is good. I might do both, one after another.

No book is going to help you re-entering society. Reading is not a common hobby in this age and it will not help you interacting with normies, except maybe if you read the most popular fantasy or science fiction novels. Books written to specifically help you socialize are full of gimmicks and pseudoscience for dealing with autism.
Best I can recommend you is dropping all social medias and forcing yourself to actively go to physical socialization places : concerts, cafés, theaters, libraries, clubs, associations. Also you better drop the «crypto bro against vaccine who thinks women are whiny cheating bitches» stance if you want to have any chances.

>>20414074
why would you want to properly enter back into the normieverse of thought and opinion? If you just need social interaction, then learn to be charismatic and charming, but don't allow yourself to coalesce with the hivemind of retards. You should always keep to yourself a system of values and opinions that cannot be influenced by conformity. Your thoughts should come from an original place or be drawn from other great thinkers that resonate with you.

1. start with a reliable local contact from back home. mine came before dropping out of college after realizing I was majoring in a worthless degree that you also hated. failing this, take an overseas job if your credentials/resume allow (mine didn't) and use it as an opportunity to develop local contacts. This is easier said than done, as there are a lot of time wasters and thieves.
2. prepare yourself for the uncomfortable. If you were a military non-paper pusher, this is probably ideal. next is probably doing some kind of outdoor manual labor (me), followed by outdoor enthusiasts who like/don't mind hot and humid conditions.
3. speak another language. I am in a French country. I do not speak French, I have never had a passion for it and even worse, what's spoken here is barely even French at this point. 5 years of Spanish lets me passably read most things. 2 years of Arabic lets you make friends with the Arab foreigners. Learning local languages even as a party trick makes a more favorable impression than speaking the colonial language.
4. Cash is king. $20k + 6 months living expenses at least. If you can muster more than this you shouldn't have a problem generating some petty cash flow.
5. Prepare to fail. I certainly did. Even a friend of mine who didn't on his first go eventually did. You are entirely responsible for your failures here! Be honest with yourself.
6. Do not entangle yourself with local women. You thought everyone asked you for money all the time before? Well the village certainly heard about their new in-law that's made of money. Also avoid prostitution, "MY GENDARME BOYFRIEND" is a very popular extortion scheme here. (I've done neither of these things but watched them play out repeatedly.)
7. Be patient. This is high risk high reward and there really aren't too many competitors in the field.
8. Traffic is by far the most dangerous thing you'll face unless you're a retard playing around in glowie ops for no reason.

9. Malaria. It's going to happen. The fear of malaria is worse than your first time in my experience. The second you notice unusual fatigue and neck/back soreness, take something for it. I don't use doxycycline because the side effects are shit

>>20417163
>You should always keep to yourself a system of values and opinions that cannot be influenced by conformity
I want to do that, hence "re-entering on my own terms"
In reality >>20417388 is right, no matter if you're a based ethnopluralistic white national-socialist or a leftard, nobody really likes to hear you ranting about politics in everyday conversations. It's just that leftist views are more accepted in todays climate, but normies don't really like to listen to any political stuff.

So basically work yourself to death in a humid, hot climate shithole without ever getting laid and with a very real chance of actually dying?

Thank you for the thoughtful response. I really appreciate it.

My father's family is South African so I have connections to the continent that might be useful. I think my degree could also be relevant (economics), so maybe it would be best to apply for a formal job. I also speak very basic French

Do you live full-time in Africa or are you there only temporarily while working on a project?

Thanks, will check that one out. Did you know there is also a book with a similar German title by Schopenhauer? "Die Kunst, Recht zu behalten", or "The Art of Winning an Argument". That is also a good read.

this is a real good base, especially with basic French. economics, maybe not so much but at least it's not as worthless as what I was doing in university
>Do you live full-time in Africa or are you there only temporarily while working on a project?
I am most months of the year here, if schedule permits I usually go home a few months during the rainy season to visit family. last year was atypical because I went home due to an ill relative (they're fine now) and stayed about 6 months, even though I came back over for about two weeks just to make sure everything was on track.
