help
how do I fix this
i just want to play video games again
I'm in the same boat, you're going to have to live with the fact that you won't finish every game in your backlog just play whatever feels fun until you're bored of it and don't sweat it.
>>339958837
The same way you can actually get somewhere in life.
Just fucking do it faggot
>>339958837
You need friends.
>>339958837
You need to be doing something, for both depression and vidya. If your free time is meaningless your brain turns in on itself. Working a shitty job doesn't help, but a good active job does. I work in a woodshop, its hard work but I'm not dealing with a customer and it feels good to get home and have earned vidya time.
If you're unemployed you need a hobby that you can do actual work on, and force yourself to do it daily. For me that was drafting and building prototypes of ancient crossbows. I can spend 6 hours with a measuring tape and sketchup, then afterwards my free time still had distinct value. The most important part of breaking depression is finding motivation to do things, anything. I find that treating my daily personal obligations (today I WILL achieve this then I can NEET out) the same way you treat a shitty job (fine, fuck it, I'll go and just hate it today). You'll still be developing a basic ability to keep your hands properly occupied.
Then playing vidya and sorting out your depression are matters of spending your off time how you want. I promise you that finding some way to stay busy will be a good first step. I've spent years and years in counselling, as an adult now depression is an inconvenient cold that I catch every few months, but I've built a way to struggle through it. Listen hard to any counselling you receive, alter it so it works for you.

Anyone got an idea for a mobile game i can make that will get me some money
I dont want to be a wage slave anymore
I saw these threads literally 20 years ago, no joke. I planned for this since I was 11.
I became a pilot, lots of pay, 16+ days off every month.
You shouldve been planning for this, nerd.
Go to the gym.
I'm out of college right now. And I have until October to go back. So I just have a part time job and most of my free days consistent if working out and playing vidya
Pic unrelated it just cute
Do something besides vidya. When I was unemployed one random day I decided I would start running. I started running and one day I ran 15 kilomters because it was fun and I had nothing else to do.
Now that I have a job and studyinga MBAI wish I had time to play something during weekdays. I still run but I'm not that committed to it
>>339958837
If you never get out, you won't have motivation to do anything, even playing videogames.
Go to the gym, get a bike and ride around etc.
>>339959154
Yeah I always try to touch my backlog but I've come to the point that I enjoy just hopping online for a few games of something. That's all I need I guess RIP story.
>>339961623
Copy the flavor of the month and put memes in it.
>>339958837
if you spend all day every day doing the same shit you're going to lose interest in it completely, call me a wagecuck or whatever the big insult on here at the moment, but one of, if not the only major perk of being employed is you get taken away from your videogames and it helps make you interested in playing them.
I just got a job a few weeks ago and I'm finally back to binging on games and manga in my free time
>>339958837
don't blog on /v/ about it.
Do something constructive to be proud of.
Get proffessional help if that doesn't work.

Never felt freer than when I got fired.
I later got a job waiting at the diner in old folks' home.It's Independent Living so it's basically old people apartments.
I get paid to banter with old ladies and listen to their stories.
Sometimes I see the most hilarious exchanges too:
>Five old ladies sitting around a table eating lunch
>Walk past them and hear one of them start talking
>"Apparently they're putting marijuana in brownies these days"
>"You can't be too careful anymore in this world"
>All the other ladies nod in agreement and go back to eating

Spend this valuable free time losing weight, gaining muscle, learning skills, changing your usernames to "Winner", and acting 100% confident even when you're not.
>>339964268
this but without becoming an aloof compensating cunt part
you just have to play games, and after ten or fifteen minutes you'll get into it and forget about /v/. your problem is probably that you start your day on /v/ and if you do that you are not going to get off.
>>339960318
Bugged friend making mechanics
OP here
all of this stuff sounds too hard
i just wanna play vidyeos
plaese just give me a solution or don't post OK?
Humanity needs more than entertainment you sperg. Work towards actually doing something. Video games can't be enjoyed if that's all you ever do. Naturally, you'll get fed up with it like everything else if you do it all the time.
>>339964623
fuck off
>>339964623
Here's the solution: kill yourself
Fucking hate the way you type
How do you deal with lack of energy?
I feel like I can't do anything outside shitposting on /v/.
Even the most trivial shit became a chore.
>>339964801
do you have any suggestions??
i tried my doorknob but i'm too big and it broke :(
mom got angry and she took all the knobs away and there's nothing else in the hosue :(

Welcome to real life. A perpetual cycle of never being satisfied with anything.
Look at Michael Jordan: GOAT and legendary basketball player, inspiration to millions of people, NBA champion, huge money from his own branded basketball clothing....
And all he wanted was to be a baseball player, and he failed at it.
This is the fate of everyone, eventually you'll just settle for "oh well it could be worse"
>>339965079
he played baseball because he was supposed to be suspended for gambling, but david stern the jew didn't want his biggest brand getting soiled while he was trying to grow america's 5th favorite sport, so he told him to fuck off and do something else for a year.

>aloof compensating cunt
I wasn't being literal with that, it was an obvious exaggeration. The problem is a lot of depression can come from a lack of confidence, and "faking it till you make it" has been proven to be stupidly effective. More confidence can also give you the energy to make smart changes in your life and surviving off autism bucks is fucking suffering.
>>339958837
Weed, for god's sake, weed.
The answer has been right in front of you all along but you just go DUDE WEED LMAO and continue to be depressed and angry.
>>339963647
When you're already content with being a NEET mooch, what do you care? In this particular scenario, yes, weed does solve OP's problem.
>>339966465
>>339961513
Weed has had a fifty-fifty chance of making me feel alright and more loose at parties or going into psychosis. I wouldn't really recommend it to anyone.
>>339958837
>actually trying to become NEET
Congratulations OP, you're probably some combination of extremely depressed, slightly suicidal, and highly self-destructive.
Now go back out there and get that life-crushing job back. I can promise you it'll be better than being a NEET for years on end.
>>339961513
Smoking weed helped me find video games fun for a while again but it doesn't work anymore they still suck
>le weed is harmless you guys
>mfw after 6 years of smoking I've become schizoid and apathetic as fuck
I literally don't give a fuck about anything.
It can be a blessing and a curse.
>>339968313
Yeah, weed is what made you a loser.
>>339968494
I said I don't care so why do you even try?
>>339968673
You care enough to post.
>>339968926
This is how I kill time.
>>339969203
No, you posted about your life in a way that made it seem like you care about the fact you don't care. You can't have it both ways.
Im too scared to look for a job why would I give up my comfortable life of waking up at noon and drawing porn all day. I make enough off commissions and sales from projects i've made to buy whatever I want so I don't know why I would stop doing what I'm doing.
>>339969398
I can have it any way I want baby.
>>339969573
Not if you want to be a logical human. Which it seems you are trying you hardest to not be.
>>339969619
You're wasting precious time on someone who literally couldn't care less. Who's the real loser now?
>>339969823
You keep saying you don't care, but yet you keep replying. This is what's called inconsistency. It means you are a liar.
>>339968313
>schizoid and apathetic as fuck
I've been high all my life it seems
>>339961069

i've just accepted it at this point, i'll never be happy.
>>339969993
I said that's how I kill time. l2read pls
You replied to me and I'm not supposed to reply back just to prove a point?
Why would you think I care about someone who I've never met and is probably just as much of a loser as I am?
>>339970160
It's because you desire to be happy.
Desire = suffering.
>>339970429
You are obviously still in high school, because you reasoning skills need work. If you care enough about life to reply to some nobody on 4chan, you CARE. I know, it's a wild theory.
What's the best way to get euphoric and start doing shit?
>>339968313
"Schizoid"? Don't self diagnose. Cannabis doesn't turn people schizoid, you were already like that. Cannabis high does make you feel more distant, though. That's why schizoid people are one of the heaviest cannabis-using groups.
Games aren't fun. Stop trying to have fun playing them. Games are for serious patrician storytelling or for serious competitive matchmaking.

Fuck I wish I had some good cheeba and a ps4 right now. Unfortunately I promised my parents I would "quit smoking weed". I also only have a ps3.
>>339970619
>muh superiority complex
When I said I don't care I meant that I don't care about a lot of things that are required of a human being in order to have a successful life.
Just because I'm not too apathetic to reply doesn't mean I care about your opinion, I just care enough to point out that your post and everything leading up to this point has been completely and utterly futile. I want you to learn from your mistakes.
>>339970908
It's true though.
The only way to be happy is to stop the desire to be happy. But it's a trap, because you will just desire to stop desiring. It's complicated, but not really.
>>339970849
>no fap myth
Bet you like placebos and homeopathic medicines.

do u understand how hormones work

It's not a placebo you chronic masturbator.

>>339971673
>muh hormones
That's not how any of this works. It's been studied. No fap was busted as fake science.
>>339971915
Then how come I feel like shit now because I've fapped 4 times today?
Well 2 of them were nocturnal emissions, but that's because I didn't fap for like 8 days.
Can I get govment bennies over the internet or do I have to leave my apartment to get them?
>>339971915
i think u took wrong turn somewhere and thot we are on fit? cuz i ctrl+f and nobody said netheng about test. we talkin bout dope
>>339958837
Find God.
>>339958837
Learn something. Like cooking and eat well or Japanese, so you can play buy and play games from Japan. Train Siberian tigers?
>>339970849
No-Fap is retarded. Just quit looking at porn and use your imagination when you fap.
>>339972067
You feel like shit because you're fat and eat garbage food. Not fapping won't do anything.
>>339972803
What difference does that make?
>>339970160
Deep down on a subconscious level you probably know you're a piece of shit and you're not doing anything to address it. Believe me, I've been there before.
>>339972972
I eat healthy and I'm 6'0 194 pounds of pure muscle bb.
>>339973463
I bet you have 6 pack glutes and can overhead press a benchpress machine.
>>339966665
Then that's your problem for being a irreparably broken human being. Smoking weed sends you into a psychosis? Get real. What are you? A DARE campaigner?
>>339973642
Now you're making sense.
>>339973756
>fucking fags why don't you just man up and ignore the chemicals released inside of your brain like me?

>I eat healthy
List them.
>>339972091
you apply online and interview on the phone
>>339961513
Weed is fucking lame, and gross. I used to smoke it occasionally and it just made me feel like shit.
Not to mention stoners are obnoxious. I had a friend who started going on the weed hard and literally all he could talk about was "smoking bowls".
Trick is
>get job
>while working job study for a career that interests you
>have hobby for spare time
Then you work career upon leaving education and do your hobby
Easy
>>339975331
Where are the video games though?
>>339973973
>he can't ignore the chemicals in his brain
literally just grind effects resistances and you'll be immune to negative status effects in a week
>>339961069
>drafting and building prototypes of ancient crossbows.
that sounds pretty damn cool
>>339958837
get off /v/ and talk to a psychiatrist
What depresses me is I choose to have conversation with people like this on 4chan
>>339958837
You're depressed because you're like a boat dead in the water.
The NEET life may be convenient but you won't go anywhere in life. No girls will love you, you won't be proud of anything, and your parents are likely ashamed of you. Get the grind going and start going to school/working. I'm not saying go back to your retail job, but find a job in security or be a librarian assistant. Something where you can sit on your ass and do schoolwork or read books to improve yourself in some way.
Men are wired to achieve, and if you aren't achieving, of course you're going to be miserable. You're either stupid or lazy, don't be lazy. Good luck OP.
