I'm losing it, guys.
I'm the funny guy. I'm always joking around; it helps me cope with how much of a mess my life has become. Ever since my mom died a month ago I haven't been able to fall asleep without crying my eyes out beforehand. My dad is a wreck, but he keeps telling me at least he has his two sons. He tells me he wants me to find a girl and make him a grandpa. I've never been in a relationship before (khv), and I don't know what to tell him when he brings up my relationship status. I work a dead end job, and all the money I make goes toward drugs that bring me up for a bit then send me crashing down. I'm 21 and in my "prime", but I know it won't last forever and I'm scared. I don't even know where to start piecing my life back together. I need help.
I've never needed someone to hold me more than now. I know some of you feel the same way.
That sounds rough, anon. I wish I could help you out senpai.
You have to find something that keeps you going day after day. A series you enjoy that comes out once a week, or a cat to come home to and play with or something. Preferably something that's easy to derive enjoyment from.

How'd your mom die?
Go see a therapist. Have 1 session. Afterwards you can still decide if you want to stop it or keep on with it. Am a therapist myself. Have seen loads of guys in a situation thats similar to yours. You should give it a try.
>>24079889
You really should tell him.

I've tried therapy a few months back. It didn't do much and I'm not one to bitch about my problems IRL. I might have to start again though.
>>24079979
I can't do that. My dad doesn't have anything else to look forward to, he's lost enough.

>coming onto /r9k/ to shill his shitty fake job
You misery profiteers know no limits do you? I bet you dream of the return of the days of lobotomy, electrocution and prison beatings.

That's rough, stay strong anon
>>24079974
Yeah this. Your mom dying is a really, really shitty thing and it's okay to feel grief.
>>24080005
Well... Electrocution is still a thing... Electroconvulsive therapy or ECT.
I've had it about 5 times, it's not that bad really!
It didn't help me but apparently it "should" be more or as effective as SSRI and SNRI meds and with fewer side-effects when treating depression and such...
What drugs anon?
>>24080259
Opiates, methamphetamine

You should. Maybe try a different therapist. Therapy-success (controlling for all possible variables) is highest when a good client-patient relationship exists. The method of therapy (cbt, schema, psychoanalysis etc) is in most cases close to irrelevant. Focus on finding a therapist that you like as a person and that you enjoy talking to. The rest will come automatically.

Lel, not really, but I also don't feel like justifying my career choices to someone who is so obviously in his unshakeable dreamworld.
>>24080269
I mean that could be the cause for a lot of your sadness and despair and your pessimistic attitude. It was for me.
>>24080300
I know but it's all I've got anymore. I've been doing them for years, it's just gotten worse since mom died. I'm already too hooked to begin living sober. Hopefully someday I'll change.

You're on /r9k/ on a weekend, you failure of a human being. Did you overstay your welcome in the /unifeels/ threads telling robots to bee themselves because your shit non-science degree let you pass with a pulse? Your new mark told you to get fucked, he's tried your scam and it didn't work. Fuck off and die, you fucking queer.
>>24080283
med student here, you guys are the equivalent of snake oil salesmen, no one respects your shitty and useless "job"
go fuck yourself loser
Keep on keeping on OP
>>24079889
I don't get it. One person dies and everyone gets sad but they were going to die anyway. Get over yourselves.
>>24079889
If you're Belgian, I can help you with hooking up with some chicks.

Stopped reading there.

Sounds perfectly legitimate.
