You are not the only one. Lots of people these days are victims of the internet age.

Learn your biases. I know it gets a bad rep amongst some people, but research MBTI and the cognitive functions. I am guessing you're probably a neurotic or highly sensitive type. I am too. Learn the pros of having such a personality type.

Seek pain. Go into social situations knowing it'll probably have a negative outcome, because that's how you improve and eventually have positive outcomes.

although a dumb post this anon isn't entirely wrong. good physical health helps with good mental health.

also get a productive hobby like learning an instrument, hiking, or joining a book club or something offered at a local museum. create short and long term goals you feel are achievable and re-evaluate them as you progress.

books can help. just read positive or comfy shit to you that keep you in a good head space.

the reality is, if you're late teens to late 20s...those years are just naturally rough because you're figuring shit out and wondering where you fit in.

dealing with a therapist whether you need one or not will get to really know you and help you better than any of us can. so consider that if you feel ultra sad or angry more often than not.

Self help won't help you. Reading 20th century literary classics and the works they're iterating upon, however, will.
The takeaway here is to understand why you were bullied and why you don't care about society. That means using your faculties to comprehend others and the human experience at large. The answer, and meaning, have to be yours.

Read philosophy. Read Hegel. Read works that are challenging to you. I'm 25, about to turn 26, and trying to come to terms with my mortality. Fuck other people; fuck their noise, their nonsense, their bullying, and their indifference. Go into social situations with optimism *in spite of* the unreliability of people. Fail and be angry. Be judged and be ashamed. Grow from it; this is the mantra I sing in my head always when I go out. Be judged and be ashamed and be dismissed by others, and do it enough to understand that that is the essence of what your life is and accept that as already always there.

The reason we're all responding to you is because you are us and we are you. By our very being here on 4chan we acknowledge our rejection and we are angry about it. Follow that anger to its conclusion until it resolves itself. Let that anger be the motion of itself that solicits you to express yourself AS YOU ARE AS A HUMAN BEING. Hold onto that anger for as long as possible and don't dismiss it. It is calling and soliciting you and you will not dismiss that anger because to do so is to dismiss the self you are about to become.

Not even: I'm not saying the Bible doesn't contain within itself contradictions: but *those contradictions are inherently part of every word that has ever been uttered and expressed as a notion within itself in the vastness of the infinite Uttering of the void*. It's not that the Bible is something you read literally; it is a text that forces the reader intuitively and always to go beyond it in order to grasp at the universality it is always hinting at.

Your mind is deceiving you. It tricks you when you see other men having partners or families, it tricks you when you see others having more wealth and beauty, it tricks you when you see others content and happy. You need to see through the illusion and deception put forward by your own conscious and mind. From the moment you are born your mind becomes your devil and knowledge becomes your curse. Now it is your mind again tricking you in believing that you can turn your life around. You need to trick the Devil itself, you need to get it in your head that everything that happens or will happen is neither good or bad and is as it should be.

Im in your same exact place, but i dont know if you did this, I became this way because I wanted to come to a conclusion, with original personal thought, why should i keep living and if i do what im here for. So the last 10 years i was basically the wojak in this image, of course i did other things in daily life, but i ended up finding a resolve to my predicament which im satisfied with, my own frame of reference.

As he said >>22038459 there are many people in this situation because we are existing in this current shitshow, so dont panic and dont anything stupid.

I recommend for you to learn something like comp sci or software engineering, so you are set up. And then, the best you can do is thinking and meditation, trying to reflex on what is your view of the world and life, and to study philosophy as much as you can.

Pussy will not solve anything ( in our situation can actually make everything worst), but if it a big weighf for you, try to get a prostitute and lifet that weight.

Good luck. Everything will be fine.

Seems like a relevant thread: I can barely get drunk enough to remember when I felt true emotion. This life is such a horror show. If God exists, he is far from impartial. He certainly created a reality with potential, but that potential feels like a fucking tease.
