How have you been improving your life /r9k/?
I'm on antidepressants
Got a lot of excess energy. That plus insomnia is helping me draw and exercise and eat less crap.
I feel fucking amazing but I know its going to end and I'm back to being degenerate garbage.

Kill the sandniggers anon, do it for /r9k/
>How have you been improving your life /r9k/?
I have three meetings this week with professors to discuss my writing sample and the letters of recommendation they will write for my grad school applications.
I also resolved to quit my wagekek, retail job as soon as the holiday season is over.
I've also been improving bit by bit with German. It's slow going but I'm doing completely on my own with internet resources and books.
I've almost stopped shitposting and try my best to make fruitful contributions to threads.

How so?
I might have some bipolar disorder. Most of my family does. My shit being fucked up was predetermined but these meds are prolonging my sanity and they feel so good.

Brother.
What are your favorite threads? I love contributing to comfy threads here. Feels a lot better than getting pissed at shitposts on other boards.

If you are bipolar, you shouldn't take SSRI's as they cause you to have mania.
The symptoms you listed, excess energy, insomnia, not eating as much, saying that you feel "fucking amazing" when all they should do at best is make you not want to kill yourself. Kinda worrying.

Coming to have the motivation to do things !== understanding.
Coming to have the motivation to do things != understanding even.
been going out with a girl. finally got laid. I've forced myself to socialize and talk to random strangers and I've met some cool people because of it.
Gonna face my stage anxiety in a couple of weeks when I play live with a friend at a park. because of that I've been practicing guitar and I'm finally getting good at it. I'm also going to bulk this winter
hey this was me last week
now i'm even worse

In other words, you understand yourself exactly as much as when you were 15.

I like comfy threads too. Music threads are fun as well.
/his/ is also a miracle. It's still really new so there's no memes and stuff (Bismarck aside) and there's nice discussion all the time.
I'm finally getting how to talk to people.
It took 19 long years, but I feel much more confident now that I understand basic socializing.

I'm not bipolar but my family has a strong history with the shit. They usually crack around 30 due to stress
After taking these I dont want to kill myself anymore and my mind is clear. I was told the excess energy and insomnia were side effects and would pass in the coming weeks. I hope I dont go crazy things were just starting to feel nice.
I'll do some research on this. Dont want to dive deep into the shit i'm trying to prevent.

I hate weird strokes of luck like this because it feels like it can all be easily taken away. but I'm not going to reject it. Good going anon try and push yourself from here.

I made the decision about two months ago to do some under the table work to purchase a game engine and steam license to go forth and publish some indie games hoping to make a living through that along with some other ideas I've had. Well, my work effort and patience is adding up and I should be able to afford everything by next month. So, I'm pretty happy about that.
I also decided eat less as of last week, and I decided yesterday to try and cut back on my soda habits and settle into drinking water and juices. I'm 60 pounds overweight, and it feels gross.
I also decided that I should try and look for work so I've been applying to mainly overnight stock jobs around here.
My very few robot friends and I have decided we'd all move somewhere together as roommates so we could save up money and try to be independent people.
I also decided today that I should study for my license already.
