Is it true that once you hit rock bottom, the only place to go is up?
>>25190650

you bore into the rock like its fucking minecraft
remember it will always get worse
Yes but the only way you can go up is if you kill youself
JUST DO IT
also if you are posting on this shit board you are not bottom
grow some balls, kid
No, your usually stuck there until your either dead or become comfortable enough not to let it bother you.
Yeah, but most of us are kept floating just above rock bottom so we never get there.
Once you hit rock bottom the only place to go is /r9k/

>also if you are posting on this shit board you are not bottom
i'd almost need to beg to differ on that. some people that post on this board are truly pathetic economically, socially, aesthetically... umm basically all the 'stuff' that makes someone rock bottom.

This. Once you hit rock bottom you can easily burst through the rock and continue downwards into hell.
>>25190650
stagnation is after that
what is rock bottom, anyways?
>>25190650
depends on what you consider to be rock bottom
as long as you have a roof over your head and food on your play you can still go lower
lot of room to move laterally at the bottom.
>>25190650
Until you are dead it can always get worse.
>>25190650
no you plateau for a few yearsand eventually get used to that level, then you drop down some more.
I just keep moving down senpai.
There is no "rock bottom". You can always sink lower.
yeah rock bottom really sucks
but you are able to make small changes at a time that improves your quality of life. You might make a small step every couple of months.
eventually, even if its a couple years, you start running.

there is no rock bottom. Well, unless you aren't starving in street and being eaten by maggots that is.
>>25190650
no, xD hell no,
the bottom is only the top of the next bottom, this continues till you die.
>>25190742
the bottom is when you are homeless phoneless and dont have internet
>>25191644

>>25192215
and then you step in dogshit
>>25192386
and then a rich Chad teases you with his money and spits on your face
>>25190650
No. It's like Minecraft (those old alphas, at least). When you find bedrock, you may think you have reached the bottom of the world. However, due to a bug in the world-generation algorithm, you may also find a hole in the bedrock. If you step into that hole, you fall into a bottomless void.
Once at my uncles 4th of July party, my uncle and I were talking about Vietnam and his buddies who served. He was sipping vodka out of a jar and was rocking in his chair like straight out of a movie. His friend killed himself after coming home from the war and learning his sweetheart cheated on him and left him. I'll always remember my uncles words.

Depends on the height from which you fall.

The real problem comes when you hit rock bottom, and you become comfortable with it.
You lose the desire to go up or down, you just let gravity carry you into free fall.
no, because you can always kill yourself
Only two kinds of people hit rock bottom, OP.
The kind that just want to lay down and die, because they believe, without any doubt, they will never, ever leave that place, and that it is where they belong.
And the kind that feel the need to stand up and live, despite the effort involved, even at rock bottom, if it means drawing that much closer to the exit.
Its easy being the former. Easiest thing in the world, actually. That is part of the allure. When you give up and convince yourself nothing can be done, there is a great placidity that accompanies that type of despair that makes it terribly addicting. And you'll be absolutely, unquestionably certain things will not change in that regard. This kind of rock bottom makes it easy to lie in bed all day hating yourself day after day.
The latter is more about a sense of duty. Either to yourself or to those you care about. Regardless of your state or what put you there, you have this perspective you cannot change, where you not only know you can improve things, you feel obligated to do so. This kind of rock bottom is a tool. A tool to remind you of your potential, of where you can go, of what you can do, of who you can become. It's a challenge sent by yourself to yourself. A gauge of self-improvement.
We'll all end up there, at rock bottom, sooner or later. Probably more than once. And only our perspective will save us. So which is it? Rock bottom in a pit of despair? Or merely the starting line in a tunnel to certain satisfaction?
You decide.
NO
What you think is rock bottom is someone else's mountain peak
if you're not sucking dicks for heroin and to pay a debt to a mafia that's already killed the only people you love, there's still someone who's beneath you
>>25190650
YOU HIT ROCK BOTTOMY
YOU THINK THAT'S ALL
BUT THE BOTTOM OPENS UP AND YOU CONTINUE TO FALL
THERE'S NO HOPE FOR ANYTHING
GETTING ANY BETTER THAN THIS
;^)
Finally, rock bottom.
