Nope. You've got your whole life ahead of you

Nah, you can still turn it around. I'm the same age as you and going through something similar.

No idea man. Everyone will tell it's never to late, that you shouldn't give up.

Pesonally, I keep trying new things, meetig people, and doing hundreds of thousands of sit-ups and push ups. Because i've been told that is what i have to do to find happyness. Regular physical exercise, meeting new people, etc... Right? I mean why would people tell you to do something that doesn't work. Except it doesn't (for me at least). But i digress. I'm likely too far down the depression pit.

Didn't you post a more elaborate version of this earlier? Went out shopping and left him to watch the kids or whatever?

Do whatever you're both comfortable with. If you're upset, or he's upset, take a bit of time to yourselves to cool off then come back and talk about it with a clear head.

Personally I'd probably shut the door and go do something else. But that's based on my boyfriend being worried about what I think. Even though I told him as a 4chan user myself, finding out that he's into traps and furries is 4chan normie tier.

No didn't see that post otherwise I probably would have posted this question there. I couldn't walk away... I started laughing because I scared the cum out of him rofl I was in stitchs. He was super embarrassed, I tried to reasure him that it was ok but my laughing didn't help the situation. Oops.

I don't know ANYTHING about product design, but presume either they freelance or they work for dedicated product design companies or in house as a department within a larger company.

I'd imagine based on the world I've worked in that freelance is going to come with the challenges that running your own business entails though I can't think who your customer base would be. They'll either be so huge they have in house design, or outsource to medium dedicated firms, or they'll hire you on a temporary basis bypassing your business entirely, or...

Thanks for this very constructive reply.
So what do you do and how is it working for you?

Also, what if you worked for a small business that isn't international?

>>17160443
Studied programming and business system analysis. Unless you worked for a company with in house development teams (they nearly all bring in freelance or dedicated consultancy) you had to have your own business or work as part of a dedicated firm.

If you work for a dedicated firm you get paid averagely and you get all the usual shit that working in an office involves. But you only get pressure from your part of the project and implementation and you can specialise and there is safety in only having ownership...

Say something like your dad promised you an expensive car if you didn't drink at all on that night (or limited yourself to 1 or 2 beers).

Personally don't really drink much, just cant get used to the taste and its too expensive. Only drink when I go out - will have a beer and thats about it.

>>17160393

>>17160450
this might work actually.

or just talk to your friends ahead of time and let them know that you'd like to not embarrass yourself on your birthday. so while you are looking forward to having a few drinks with them, you're going to be pacing yourself to avoid any bad situations, and you'd like them to please not try to encourage you to over-drink.

if you don't trust them to respect that (or if they're the kind...

First of all if you let someone pressure you into drinking (or doing anything for that matter) you're a fucking faggot. Simply tell them that you'll drink how much you feel like drinking and be done with that. You can't control what you're going to do when drunk, you can only control how drunk you'll get.

Making a fool out of yourself is not so bad, at least when you're out with your friends, but if you're going out with girls and you want to hook up with one of them you obviously shouldn't get shitfaced.

So don't get...

Really thats it

Welcome to the real world. Thanks for contributing. Now man the fuck up and do what the rest of us do every single fucking day.

Aww, poor baby. Can't work and have a NEET life too? Funny that.

>>17160360
Quit.

>>17160282
Weird to who? Who's checking?

People go to movies alone all the time.

>>17160288
Basically this. No one will notice either way, but no there's nothing inherently weird about seeing a show on your own

>>17160282
No.

Go. Talk to the people next to you in line or in the venue. Enjoy.

I'd suggest a more moderate church. They can actually be pretty pleasant. The more fundamentalist ones the lean towards cult mentality are pretty damaging in my opinion. I don't attend a church myself, I was exposed to a number of them and didn't really like the human element, the politics to it all. I'm happy as a hermit believer

>behavior control is emphasized, they want to have daily contact with you to make sure you're not drinking alcohol or fucking coffee, or having sex, similar to what Ive seen in cult-y self help groups
And most disturbing to me
>the church teaches that to achieve the highest level in the afterlife, your spouse also has to be Mormon and you have to do a ceremony in a temple

At first I supported her enthusiasm for this because I was happy that my fiancee found a church and she could get some community...

Protip: she's being sucked into this so easily because she's unsatisfied with her life (this possibly means you). Be a fucking man and tell her that you're not joining and neither are you. If she chooses the cult over you, then you dodged a bullet.

I'm sick of all this nu-male "I can't control my woman" bullshit.

As far as the whore level goes, it's pretty low on the bar. I wonder how much one makes 2bh. I'm a guy but it kind of makes my skin crawl thinking of the gross, perverted, lonely men that call those numbers

naw that's fucked mate. expect problems.

$9.30 but she gets to stay home with our kids

Be energetic, give eye contact, fake it all if you have to. I'm the most pleasant person I've ever been in interviews. If it's a large company they might have some company vision or goal which you should research online and get familiar with. Since you have zero work experience you'll want to focus on your basic strengths and some examples of those strengths

>>17160249
I don't know specifically how to be energetic or if I am doing it correctly, I always keep an upbeat tone that isn't too shallow or bored and I always give eye contact. As for experience I only have it in labor I have never really had an official job. Do I disclose that to them ?

It'd mention that in your resume/cv anyways wouldn't it? You did labour work, but it wasn't considered a job?

>>17160239
Try making smoothies. If you mkix the right healthy things together it can come out tasting good.

your sense of taste has already been fucked by artificial flavours/sweeteners.

theres nothing you can do other than cook creatively, force yourself and pray that you somehow manage to restore your natural taste again.

>>17160272
It's quite easy though. And after a few years it's even the other way round. Can't have artificial shit in my food and hate McDonald's etc to death.
Just get started jackass and add lots of spices. There are tons of them and they taste A LOT better than artificial flavours.

Get naked and be really obnoxiously naked

Cont. 2/2
Parents got worried, eventually sent me to a wilderness camp a few states away. That wilderness camp transitioned into a monkey house school thing. It was awful, and lasted nearly 2 years, but that's beside the point.

After a few transitions, I'm living with my Mom again (parents divorced recently, me being the main culprit), I'm still afraid to go into crowded places for long periods of time, and generally live antisocially. I've been diagnosed unofficially with acute PTSD, of the social veriety....dunno if that's a thing, bit it's...

your disorder is causing you to flip the reality, the fact being, everyone grows up and forgets

every path you have been through defines who you are, doesnt mean you are a pathetic loser from the past but a person who have learnt to accept it and moved on with his life

maybe soon you will realise your parents are just strangers that you got bloodties to, and would want to see you healthy and happy before you are kicked out from home

just vent it all out, maybe find a place and scream your lungs out, as you have not relaxed your body in ages

>yeah i know
>DEAL WITH IT

wow, even when trying to be humble you are still a pretentious egomaniac.

>give me some fucking advice

go fuck yourself.

no one can really say why your gf wants to hurt herself because her experience with her mental illness is unique to only her.

but i can say for myself and others, sometimes pain is just what you seek because it elicits an emotional response. and when you're depressed, pretty much every emotion is hard to come by. inflicting pain just makes you feel something for once. some people also see it as a punishment they deserve, or a coping mechanism to make themselves feel pain as opposed to another hurtful emotion.
your girlfriend is a person who probably would benefit...

Stop indulging her with that shit. As someone who has struggled with depression probably longer than your gf has been alive, I can tell you there are ways of dealing with it without self harm. Look at alternative forms of calm, like meditation or get her into therapy

>>17160178
It's the reason people cut themselves. The (warped) thinking goes like this: "I'm in emotional/mental pain and there is no visible cause of it. If I give myself physical pain I can see the cause-and-effect of that, and so agt least it makes some sense."

>>17160115

its rude, but not for the reasons you are thinking. its rude because instead of rising to the challenge and getting better / faster at cleaning, you are insisting on the easier shift, where you arent required to do that work.

>>17160115
I'm going to say this in order to try to help you. You better try to develop a sense of urgency at work. If you're too slow on the closing shift, who the fuck wants to work with you during the day? Spoiler: No one will.

I know you probably are asking yourself, "WHY SHOULD I WORK HARD AT THIS WHEN THEY PAY ME GARBAGE?" You have to start somewhere unfortunately.

Start busting ass at work and they'll give you any shift you want eventually.

slightly off-topic: why does every fast food place have that one shift leader who's a total fucking nazi for no apparent reason

what motivates these people
