What is the most important lesson you learned in 2015?I'm trying to be serious here a bit, pls no memes.
I don't need benzos or alcohol to get by but, they certainly make everything better while I'm on them
>5 months sober
>>25238982
That women don't even see me as a human being with feelings and emotions like them. To most of them, I am crud under their boot.
Also, really drunk right now over an ex girlfriend who fucked me over back in February. :')
Almost most people are irresponsible and are willing to shamble through life.
>>25238982
that if i study in the library i can actually get things done
>>25238982
Never let your happiness depend on someone else. I learned that the hard way.
Beards on metrosexuals are extremely fucking gay.
Just truly be yourself.
>>25238982
Achieving your dream is possible as long as you work hard on it.
>>25238982

Always keep your secrets for yourself. The moment you tell one to someone, you risk the possibility of becoming a slave.
Doesn't matter if you already have one, become your own best friend. Most of the people you will meet through your life are temporal, and at the end only you remain.
Always watch your back, even around trusted people.
Do not glorify women. If you do, they will never respect you. Just be yourself around them, even if that means being an asshole/retard/depressive person. It's not worth it to act as someone you're not to please others.
Some people like to manipulate those who are too nice. Learn to be a tough every now and then but don't overdo it
Don't be scared to say what's on your mind.
I learned that I'm a bad person and unlikely to change.
Whatever.
a listening ear is a running mouth. Keep more important info to myself. Eat healthy and think everything i do thoroughly
>>25239003
Binged on a 2mg kpin habit a day abd drank every night for 8 months stopped that back in September the wds were hell but now I'm back in the same spot and can actually communicate with people again, no anxiety feelsgoodman.jpg I don't think the sober life's worth it for me brotha best of luck to you tho hope that works out
Decided that if I'm not happy with life in a year, I'm going to kill myself.
No matter what i do i will always be depressed
>>25238982
The secret to getting good at running is to start very small and easy so you grow to enjoy it.
>>25238982
no matter how hard you try to please your boss they will always sack you the second they don't like you.
I learned that i can save about 63% of the money i spend of food if i cook it myself, including the tools and electricity and that 15 is the age of consent in my country
I'm irredeemable.
>>25238982
It doesn't get better.I was a fool to think this original.
Honestly I don't think I learned anything at all this year.
That normies need to leave /r9k/ and not come back.
>>25238982
Crime always pays.
>>25239810
>15 is the age of consent in my country
and exactly how did you learn that?
>b-but I swear she said she was 15!
>>25239049
From experience, a lot of that negative attention is in response to the way you present yourself, and a lot of the perceived negative attention is just imagined.
I hope you'll get better with time bro.
>>25238982
Buy in bulk sell individually with a 200% mark up.
Get the cheapest tracphones in Walmart every two weeks to facilitate trade.
Conduct business in recreational parties. The streets always take care of lone wolfs and newbies.
No point in following restrictions
"cutting back" isn't quitting.
I can't sporadically take opiates without becoming an addict, it's all or nothing.tfw not sure if life without painkillers is worth living
trusting women should be a crime.
beards are for people who are trying to look wise and sophisticated when they themselves arent
family are the ones who care the most.
I learned I don't have to be angry about everything in this world. I don't have to comment about everything so negatively or find fault in everything I watch, listen or read. Having a negative opinion about anything doesn't make you seem smart to others like I subconsciously thought it did.
No more do I reacting when I read about a black person saying something stupid about white people. You're no better then them if you waste your time reacting to their crap. Same thing with over the top feminists, whats the point in getting into flame wars about what some dumb person said about men as a whole. Just let people be assholes and make idiots of themselves, life is too short and I'm out to explore and try new things with a open mind.
I believe my depression is fading because my new out look on my negative attitude and my tendency to react to shit.

You can't do both if you have a opinion that should be kept secret because of backlash for speaking your mind.

Dig that hole, forget the sun.
Getting /fit/ will better your life. You can't lift away your autism but a shredded autist is always better than a skinnyfat one.
to mind my own business, and not bother trying to make friends unless they benefit you because trust and loyalty are rare and ironically unreliable
damn that sounded a lot more edgier than I thought it would lol
Fear of a thing is almost always worse than the thing itself
That the only important thing is my Happiness.
And most people just aren't worth my time.
>>25239855
made me chuckle up
Life is better with a gf
Things i have learned this year:
>most people, especially girls are insecure small small people. Thats why they want a guy that is secure in themselves.
>You have to lead ALL girls. This is 101 knowledge, essentials. But you MUST ALWAYS lead the way. Which restaurant, what to do etc etc.
>Most people in general are actually pussies. If you are willing to actually step out of you comfort zone, you are a 1 in 100.
>If you fear something the fear is always worse then the actual thing. Always.
>Do something. Introspection or self-help is bullshit. Sure reflect some about your life, what you are about. But in most cases it won't lead you anywhere. So just do SOMETHING.
>Girls are assholes, The same way guys are assholes. But girls sometimes seem soulless.
>Getting drunk is good when socializing.
>You don't have to plan everything perfectly. Just go with the flow sometimes.
>Your problems (mental issues) can be a thing to bond over with friends and girls especially.
>Slutty girls often have issues
attractiveness and being a piece of shit seem to correlate positively, but I'll have to constantly remind myself of that because my nature is to think the opposite
>>25238982
Above all else is the relationship you have with yourself.
Above ALL else. It is the most important thing and it defines absolutely everything you do and everything you have.
>>25239073
Same. I think that's the only way you can learn that. Be happy it happened sooner rather than later. You're free now.

>>25239985
>I can't sporadically take opiates without becoming an addict, it's all or nothing.
ouch. currently on a tramadol-habbit. Cut it down to 150mg a day.
I want to quit and start doing it irregularly to enjoy that activating and moodlifting xtc&opioid-like buzz. But after months of trying to quit I guess I have to choose between sobriety and living my live without bad emotions.
>>25238982

I'm not gonna be able to change who I am. I've tried for years now, but earlier in August I came to the conclusion that while my morals, views on the world, and son might change, my behavior and actions will always remain the same
Therapy is has just as much of a chance of working as acne meds. Sometimes it does wonders, other times it makes worse.
In America, you can scare the fuck out of just about anyone by being 100% honest, direct, and polite on everything you say.
Getting a gf is completely up to random chance. You can do things to increase your odds, but it is still a roll of the dice.
>>25239935
>200% mark up
That's a shit markup mate if you're selling drugs. Markup for selling E where I live is like 350%. 400% if you buy bulk.
Edgy post mate.

Secret: I jack off to stuff on /d/ on a regular basis
>>25240071
Speaking your mind: I think that your idea to increase sales is a bad idea and mathematically speaking, will put us under more than we are now.
That when you blame others for the current state of your life you become bitter but when you ignore external factors and take full responsibility you become stronger and your life improves.
>>25238982
It is extremely difficult to tell if someone is really trying to be your friend or is just using you.
Basically, I learned, the hard way of course, to not trust anyone who tries to be my friend. Everyone always wants something.
Don't waste time and effort trying to help someone if it's only effective if accepted 100% and they don't accept it 100%.

Well if you are /pol/ tier retarded or /r9k/ tier insecure about the other gender, you do should shut the fuck up if you are this afraid of other peoples' opinions.
>>25239110
I know this is considered a meme, but honestly it's true.
You will feel like a dumbass when you change for others and they still don't accept you.
You will feel unhappy if you changed to make friends you don't even like and who wouldn't even like the real you.
Just be yourself and remember. Improving that said self isn't changing who you are and it gets rid of flaws and you will like yourself more too.
Be yourself and improve what you think is right.
>>25238982
if i don't plan things ahead of time thoroughly my shit will be fucked
>>25240016
I know what you mean. I react negatively to almost everything, so I've learned to mute my emotions. Anti despressants help as well.
everything sucks when you aren't chad
>>25242429
"Muting" your emotions isn't good either.
You have your opinion and you can voice it.
You should just realize it's unnecessary to get angry over what other people say, especially when you only read it on the internet.
Like how pointless is that?
>>25238982
NEET life is best life. Work is for cucks
>>25238982
Don't live life for yourself, live life for others.
>>25238982
If you aren't physically exhausted 24/7 you can't pay bills unless you're a NEET.
I've spent alot of time on /pol/. I am serious when I say that I have learned alot about corruption in the world. A lot of it has been mindblowing, some of it has made me hate in a way that I can never go back.
So without sounding like a meme let me spell it out.
-Europe contributed to 90% of what we know as civilization today, in every area including art, science, philosophy etc. Other peoples and cultures constantly appropriate different aspects of it for themselves, in a struggle for significance. White westerners allow it to happen, whether out of fear for causing trouble, or because they have become listless and blind from knowing the earnings of their ancestors.
-There is no group in this world that is entirely innocent. One of the most innocent appearing groups are the Jews. However they are comprised of some of the most ruthlessly criminal and powerful people on the planet, who constantly strive to make others work for them, and gain more power, and commit crimes in secret.
-It is more apparent every day that Muslims will have to be forcibly removed at some point in the future, in some places, at the very minimum, in order to preserve democracy, if democracy is going to be preserved.
-The elite love to use religion, including highly repressive Islam, to usher in a form of social control. Monarchy is the natural state of man, therefore, I fear for the future existence of actual democracy on the planet, and it isn't certain that it will exist a hundred years from now.
-Internet controls become tighter with the passage of new legislation, and the structure of the internet has a direct influence on personal freedoms.
i'm impressed at how many different variations on "my failures are not my fault" were learned and shared by you guys this year. what a useful board for deflecting responsibility.
>>25238982
1. Always do your own research on things, always. Never take someone elses words for truth easily.
2. Sleep is very important
3. Eating properly is very important
4. You are much weaker than you think, always prepare for things.
5. Do not leave yourself on debt to others, life which is not earned feels pointless.
6. Do not let yourself fall if you just feel like it, losing pressure is much easier than gaining it.
7. Nobody really wants to help you, help yourself.
8. A look out of the window is one of the most soothing things for the soul.
>>25242550
Worst advice in this thread.
that i dont want to be alone anymore
That I'll never have a gf and I'm fine with that.
>Depression cannot be beaten
Not even memeing. Once you get it bad, you're stuck with it going around in an endless cycle of seriously low moods to not so seriously low
>>25238982
1. Twitter is a horrible place filled with feminazis, gender and social justice warriors.
2. Video games are the essence of being unproductive. If I'm going to achieve my life dreams, I'm going to have to quit them and become productive.
It doesn't ducking matter because its all just a bunch of vibrations and wiggles
>>25242666
nah, unless you're manic (brain chemicals are fucked up) you'll end up just numbing out, you'll be fine.

>>25242666
After 6 years I've learned this year that there's never going to be a clear path to beating it. The only way to continue to cope is to do everything I can to spend as much time as possible focusing on numbing it all out as much as I can and spending my clearer moments meticulously detailing future plans to avoid a trainwreck if I have a bad episode.

That sadness strikes giving no hint, most of the times. So you gotta be ready to face anxiety attacks that come out of the blue.
I'm always trying to change my personality and the way to react to things. Next year I'll just try staying more muted especially around my family and let them talk their shit and their stupid opinions, and be less negative around everyone's opinion and taste.
>>25239638
Not necessarily bro, I'm depressive myself, the main problem with depression is that it makes lose perspective about what's really going on. You start seeing things worse than what they really are. The first thing to do is try to see that problem as it really is, not worse, not better.
Excersise helps a ton, not only lifting nut cardio or team sports. They will chemically make you feel better and help you thru tough times.
I've been on the edge a bunch of times, but I've had very good that I wouldn't have had if I had shot myself 6 years ago.
If you are going trough he'll keep going man.

it's okay to cheat on your girlfriend as long as you don't get caught
>>25238982
The reason why I don't have a gf is because I'm a cynical, bitter loser and it actually makes me insufferable to be around.
that the love of my life hates me and I have no chance of doing anything remotely good on this earth, and my best friend that I lost doesn't want me back
I am inferior. I always will be and can't do anything about it.
>>25242577
Why did you go there in the first place?
How old are you and what do you think the world will look like in 2030?
I shouldnt be afraid of dying since my brain is programmed to make me accept death no matter what when the time will come.
that i will continue to be depressed if i don't get a constructive hobby.
i lift but that's not enough for some reason. i guess i'm just fucked
>>25242891
Didn't I include your lesson to my good lesson list? Aww, no need to be butthurt, friend :^)
I learned that if I don't value myself, no one else will do it for me.
I learned to ask for things that I want. People can't read minds, and being direct is the easiest way.
I learned I'm not as shitty as I thought. I'm my own biggest critic.
>>25244303
That's an interesting thought senpai.
>>25244303

Huh, I learned like one week ago that you can be effortlessly different and happy if you hang with different people.Don't loose hope, anon.
People are living their own lives and you're not that important to them.
I essentially learned to be completely self-reliant, since I'm completely alone now anyway.
Inside everybody is just as confused as the next guy, no matter how convicted they are in life with whatever clear purpose they've created for themselves. It lingers.
It's easy to get As in college if you cut everything else out of your life, but if you do so you will be an uninteresting person.
You will run into bumps, don't panic.
Nothing will get done unless I do it myself.
Both in a 'I want to make my life better' way, and in a 'everyone else is incompetent' way.
>>25248230
Glad to see everything is going well for you, anon. If you're still here and if this applies to you, do you have any advice on how to overcome major depression? I've pretty much tried everything and have given up hope, yet there is still something in me that wants to succeed, that wants to change.

>don't care about shit so much, you'll pull through with everything
>don't impose any rules on yourself - world is immoral and nobody follows the rules
>be egoistic and care only about yourself - nobody else will care about you - if you wanna get a gf then make sure that it benefits YOU and the second it ceases to, just dump her
>do not let other people walk over you
>being a smug faggot isn't all that bad - it's actually pretty fun
>embrace the sucks
>if you're in a shit situation, try to make it so that it'll be a good story to tell when it finally ends
>do not under any circumstances whine when around people
>try not to brag about anything either
>don't try being a team player - ALWAYS immediately assume command, especially with women, funnily enough most people will simply follow your orders
>try to keep a good posture - keep your chin up and look down on people even if you're a manlet, also try to stand as tall as you can without standing on your toes - this makes you have a very upright posture without much troubleThis is the kind of shit I've been literally writing to myself over the year. Not kidding.

I overcame my depression by getting out of the circumstances I was in, everybody always says "nuh u don't get it its a chemical imbalance" but that's bull shit.
Try to remove as many negative stressors from your life as possible, this will give more energy for the positive necessary stressors like getting to the barber or doing a hobby you like.
Over time as you conquer your positive stressors and spend less time miserable over the negatives your mental state will improve.
>>25238982
that I should've killed myself in 2014
>>25239638
Holy shit this. I recently realized that I'm at the point where literally nothing could actually make me happy. All the things I thought that would make me happy didn't. I wanted a particular car so much. And after the years of saving up and working hard when I finally got it I felt literally nothing.
>>25238982
Don't stop asking questions. People might get annoyed by it, but fuck them. The best way to figure out something is to exhaust all possible options and you can't do that without asking questions.
>>25242666
Meds can make it bearable. I've been taking zinc, vit d3 and piracetam and it actually works for me. It doesn't exactly make me happy or anything but it sure as hell makes me care less.
Nice guys finish last if they ever finish at all. And yet I can't change my nature. I know I should be lifting and improving myself but the knowledge of how evil women are rather makes me want to give up and check out of life.
Worse still? I know I'll be that beta who worships a used up 30 year old roastie that latches onto him for a beta provider while cucking him. It's in my blood. I'll never be Chad.
>>25249580
I don't get your post.
I havent learned a thing.
This year was an absolute fluke.
When dating a gril, there's two golden mistakes that I finally realized that I do.
1. Being a pussy
>buying her everything(first date doesn't count)
>always texting her as much as you can
>always asking how she feels, how her day was, blah blah
>letting her control how you dress/act/think
>LETTING HER BE A BITCH TO YOU AND ACTING LIKE IT'S OKAY
2. Moving too quickly(I've done this several times now and it always ends in awkward commitments neither of you want to hold)
>date girl
>it goes well
>do the pussy shit in number 1 to make her like you even more
>asking her to be exclusive after a month or less
>be with her for a few more months
>both of you take your masks off
>realize that you're not into them anymore/they're into you
>still don't want to break up with them because you don't want to be alone/you still care about them enough not to want to ditch them

This.
The thing is - as a man you should always demand a certain level of respect. If a cunt disrespects you, then it's her fucking fault and you shouldn't be crying about her not being interested in you.
The world ends with you. If you want to enjoy life, expand your world.

I learnt that I'm older now, but I'm still a child. I build LEGO Star Wars sets still (mum got me the Falcon for Christmas) and if I'm honest I don't want to go to university I just want to sit in my room and play with my Star Wars toys. I feel at my absolute happiest when I'm building a set and I start to recognise it. It's one of the few things I don't fuck up.
I've learnt that I'm still a child. I've learnt I'll never truly reach true maturity and adulthood so I should stop trying.

See the world for what it is to take precautions for yourself and then make a plan on how you can achieve maximum happiness with the time that you have here. Negative things you see should only be a warning on how to not get hit in the mouth while pursuing your plans

I can think a few very important lessons I've learned this year
>if you love someone and they are important to you, it is important that you show it through kind actions and patience.
>just because someone swears up and down that they love you, doesn't make it true.
>people come and go from our lives, and you need to accept that with grace.
>you need to be good to yourself and be comfortable being alone because at the end of the day, the only person who will always be there, who you will have to count on, is yourself.
You literally need to fake it till you make it
being yourself will not cut it.
If I don't have time to do the things I want to do, then life's not worth living.
Sometimes holding onto something that's good for too long isn't the right way to go.
Life is about change, so accept that even good things can become bad or just tired out and it's important to let them go appropriately so something new can take their place.

>being this much of a pleb at history
Especially the middle east, which was pretty advanced before it got fucked and became a shithole. Not saying Europe isn't one of the most, if not the most significant contributors, but if you really think this you have no idea what you're talking about.

didn't get fucked as hard, but could have. flipped out and thought someone was planting a bomb at my work place since i was making too many connections on lsd. huge fucking intervention. went to jail for a couple of days. got bailed out on a bond. could've gone to jail for a year over food i stole, and i didn't fully pay back the penalty i owed the store long enough they ended up sending a warrant out for my arrest since they sent court orders to a mail address i was too lazy to update. it was a cozy job too. actually enjoyed it.
used to live with my sister, but she may not let me back at the condo we shared. currently on the east side. been depressed for the past 2 months only wanting to sleep. thankful i've at least been able to do that though.

The golden age is a meme but they were still doing pretty good for the middle ages. The main problem with the "Golden Age" shit is people point at it and say "see, Islam is good". It's like looking at the Greeks and deciding that their success as a civilization means worshiping Zeus is fucking great. Which is ridiculous because this was literally centuries ago, and modern Islam is complete trash no matter what happened in the past.
not really a new thought, but my belief that sharing anything personal/just talking in general can only lead to suffering has been reaffirmed a number of times.

Don't be afraid to consider that you might be wrong, its an important part in determining what is true.
Relationships are about meeting people halfway; letting someone else do all the work will lead to a disaster or nothing at all. It's literally self-help tier knowledge, but I never thought about it.
Stay busy. Sitting around on here or watching tv is ok every now and then, but not all the time. That's how you end up in a depressed rut. Be productive in some way instead. For recreation, do something where you can improve a skill or learn something new. If nothing else, learn to be more social and improve your communication skills. You can do this by going to a bar and engaging strangers. Basically, in everything you do, think about what you are doing and how it can benefit you. What are you learning, what are you getting better at, how are you growing? Don't waste your time if you aren't.
You should also consider what you're doing for others but that's beside my point. It can be worth spending your time for another person but you still must understand what the benefit is. I hope that all makes sense.

1 - only tell the ones you're willing not to take up blackmail on
3 - more like don't rise expectations of others, expect nothing and aim for personal (no interpersonal crap) desires
4 - don't give a damn about respect at all, for the most unsuccessful people being yourself is not doing anything or overthinking, just be confrontational and willing to risk if you feel you can take it
5 - especially on repetitive exploits, don't be someone's doormat, they'll get addicted
6 - won't work for everything, refer to my "if you're willing to take the risk" part

This is the only good post in the fucking thread. What an embarrassing thread.
I got a bunch of them
Push yourself as hard as you can, pain and discomfort is a part of being alive and you'll be tougher for it.
Life is amazing and there's no reason to waste it. Do everything you fucking can and don't worry about shit.
Spend your time productively. Videogames are and endless, worthless timesink that constantly string you along with the illusion of progress when you're doing fucking nothing. Playing them isn't bad, just don't waste years of your life on it.
When you exercise or do something productive, convince yourself that you're making the world a better place just by doing it, and on some level, it will be true.
Never think you're better than any other person, even the worst people you have ever met can change for the better and become good people.
Be proactive in conversations so people don't feel like they're talking to themselves. This is fucking huge, even if you look amazing nobody wants to be around a boring fuck.
A person who tries there best and fails is infinitely better than the person who was too scared to try at all. Unless you die doing it.
The trick to art is to not give a single shit about what you're drawing. It's just paper, don't be scared to just go at it even if it means you might fuck up a drawing.
Most posts on 4chan are bait intended to make people mad. Don't bother responding to stuff that looks like it was written by dummies. A good test to see if someone's just rusing you is to use really short responses that take less effort than what the other guy is posting. If they abruptly stop responding then they're only arguing for the sake of arguing
You don't have to be full all the time, eat when your hungry.
Don't avoid something just because it's popular, everyone will just think you're a fucking nugget.
Don't make excuses for not doing something, don't make imaginary problems in your head, don't over complicate things.
>>25258932

I honestly think CC and smaller colleges provide a better learner experience, because you can interact with the teacher one-on-one in class, and if you need help. At a big university you're pretty much on your own.
Just fucking ask the girl out, if they say yes, you're in. If they say no? Fuck 'em, you're better than that. Confidence can be manufactured.

I go to a big school but the professors are generally accessible. I can't believe I'm pissing away 20K/yr for this though.
I was right about myself. No one will ever love me.
Also, it was better to have never loved at all.
>>25259561
not really, i mostly hung out with foreigners and never slept with any Chinese girls.
at least over there i had a strong circle of friends and coworkers, an easy lifestyle with loads of extra income and few responsibilities beyond feeding myself and shuffling next door to the office for work. drinks were cheap and plentiful and i had a lady to sleep with only 2 minutes away but i didnt have to deal with in an all-out relationship.
now im back here in a fairly rural area working a useless job im overqualified for with all my incoming draining into rent and car payments while a bachelors degree, year+ of living abroad and multiple jobs in multiple industries have failed to move me forward in my career at all from where i was when i graduated almost 3 years ago.

if i learned something this year thats it.
i learned after being asked the cliche "what would you do if you had a billion dollars" that if i had a billion dollars i would kill myself, moneys the only motivation i have left, all i enjoy doing is buying things and selling for more and that if i had no reason to do that anymore i would have nothing leftand i wouldnt want to start anywhere than from the bottom

i learned the same lesson
i already have feminine features, i'm short and no musclemass anorexic
facial hair looks fucking disgusting on me
i learned when i was an obese 13 year old angsty /b/tard fapping to bailey jay
I learned that I am a moral nihilist and ultimately can only do what I believe is right, regardless of what others may think.
I also learned that doing instead of thinking is the key to true happiness. The more time man has to sit and ponder, the more he discovers is 'wrong' with his life or with his world. Society is ultimately detrimental to the 'spiritual' well-being of man.>inb4 edgy
>>25260281
So you feel that you lack certain physical features that would mark you out as 'masculine', and so you want to 'settle' in a way by being a woman? Is that it?

I have kept an extensive journal from 2009 onward, first year of uni (I am writing this after the rest of the post, it makes more sense with this here). I am really interested in hearing armchair psychologists on 4chan so I am happy to oblige you. I think real psychologists are too afraid of hurting feelings or saying "wrong" things to ask real questions. In any case, writing this is good for me so I can hoard another entry and a future me can look back and cringe at whatever I wish I knew.

Yeah so basically I'm a terribly mentally ill basket case who I think is now destined to become a freak.
I wish I were like >>25260281 or pyramidhead so at least it would be less weird.
I learned that I have no influence over the most things, it's quite comfy I'm not giving a fuck anymore, If I have to do a lot of things in a short period of time and I know that there's no chance to do all of it I'm doing it like there was no deadline
The lessons I learned are from a movie I watched, just discovered it some time ago.
Anyone want to feel like shit at the end of this 2 hour masterpiece watch it.
I recommend it for the feels, all of them

Thanks so much for posting the full story anon, sorry that you've had these issues. I can't really say anything that would help you, I've had long issues with femdom and dominance but never wanted to be a girl. I just wish you the best, and thanks a lot for sharing.
I learnt a couple of things.
First, that men are being pushed out of jobs for the sake of women. I thought the memes were false; I was mistaken, and I suffered for it.
Second, independence only matters if you plan on fucking girls. If you don't plan on fucking anyone, don't worry about it at all. Live anywhere that's cheap or comfortable for you (and if that's with your parents, so be it) and do whatever is you like.
Third, anime is a trap. It'll take you away from your life, but it'll drop you back in it on your fucking head. Whether it be existential, time-based, or love and devotion, it's going to fuck you up.
r9k reflects as opposite mirror of my life. kek
Realizations in my 2015:
>Not everyone is super low all the time, I've got major depression
>Not everyone is in pain all the time, I've got a pain disorder
>Not everyone is this flexible, I'm hypermobile and that's definitely related to the pain disorder somehow
>Not everyone is a little bit sick all the time or had a childhood where they were constantly ill
>Most people get taken to the hospital after a hit on the head so hard they black out
>The reason I didn't realize these things is because my parents actively denied my suffering all through my childhood and I just learned how to deal with it
>That ex I never got over has the same mental illness her mother has, and I should've never gotten back in contact with her because she was using me for closure
>Because I was still in love with the ex, I could never have a normal sex life so I was a 23-year-old man who'd never seen a vagina
>I'm a hard person to work with because the mental health issues makes me a hard person to relate to and causes me to act in really inappropriate ways at times
HOWEVER
>I've now been in the hospital for depression and I'm on medication for the first time ever and it's changing my life
>I'm in psychotherapy to reassess my shitty childhood and to build new and better ways to take care of myself
>I'm in physical therapy to build up strength to deal with the hypermobility and I'm seeing a specialist in February 2016, probably get on pain meds shortly thereafter
>I cut off that ex entirely even though she wanted to stay in contact and work things out
>I got a kickass new GF who has a lot of the same issues I do, so we can help each other out reciprocally (I've gotten her into orthopedics, she's gotten me into working out)
>Kickass new GF blew me the first night we were together,
>I'm much better to work with and I can do much, much more now that I'm not working through debilitating untreated mental health issues
Looks like I might make it yet
having sex is easier than you think if you actually try
women's whole thing is that they don't want to put forth effort. it's supposed to be "the man's job" to approach. whether it's tinder, online dating, or in public. as long as you just don't give a fuck, you can take a girl on a couple of dates and then have sex with her. rejection fucking sucks. i'm not even saying it doesn't or you get used to it. but just treat approaching them like a dare or something.

Grats man keep it up.

Becoming thinner is fucking great. I've lost 10kg (22pounds) since august, and suddenly, muscle definition is showing up, my facial features become more prominent, and clothing that would usually look ridiculous on me start fitting well. Since August I've lost about 15kg, and the difference is huge. I honestly haven't had more confidence ever before in my life, and even though I'm still a beta virgin loser by many accounts, I for the first time in my life think it's going to change, as long as I can keep this up. Exercise and a good diet is all it takes, lads, you should try it, like properly, not the half-assed shit you've probably done a thousand times before. Seriously go for it this time.
You're hopeless with women. Just focus on your degree
It is always better to regret doing something, than it is to regret not doing it.

And when at last the work is done
upon entering a room always come up with a safe and general topic,possibly about the room that you can notice and switch to if talking becomes awkward
That it is too late for me to kill myself.

Human minds tend to naturally reach the same certain conclusions when they spend too much time thinking and alone.
Stop procrastinating, because doing it is always less painful than thinking about doing it. If you want to go anywhere in life, you need to commit to a course of action.
That's about it I guess.
That more than anything, I just want to be left alone by the world at large

oh fuck off. at least /pol/ is an actual board on 4chan, tumblr is a whole other website.

DONT GET FUCKING BLACK OUT DRUNK!!!
>tfw you tried desperately to "get you life back on track"
>tfw you made a proper CV, you found a job, then another, then other after that and you're been working for a while here already
I'm honestly just fascinated by how rotten and shitty your average enterprise or a government organization is from the inside. I know, I know, it's a common knowledge, you've seen that in the movies and read in the news, but actually working in one really shows you how bad things really are.
>>25238982
There's no time to think about killing yourself when you're working your ass off
That all that matters to advance yourself in your career or otherwise is what people think of you. There is no meritocracy. You are just one number in millions, so no one really looks more than skin deep.
The whole job application process is a game of self exaggeration and lying. Your individual achievements don't really mean much, and every seemingly objective metric doesn't really matter. It doesn't matter whether it's in the private or public sectors, as it's the same in both places. Once you are in, it's more of the same. Every KPI or performance indicator doesn't really tell you much in the end.
>>25241592
Absolutely. No one gives a fuck about you. You can make a link like race, religion, nationality, whatever. But they just do not give a fuck about you.

The Nazis were not the good guys during WWII, regardless of what /pol/ tells me
Is not that bad not having dreams in your life after you loose what you thought it was the love of your life.
>>25255550
Hehe at least you have some hope on someone else, and you don't automatically judge them and make them disgusting in your head, no matter how cute or how cool their personality is.
All of this because you can't get over a relationship that is going to accomplish two years of dead.
This year I learned that the key to being happy isn't the search for meaning. It's to just keep yourself busy with unimportant bullshit and eventually, you'll be dead.

lolunoriginal comment_blox
I guess...
I learned that I have a lot to learn.
2 things:
1 i learned how to empty all the urine out of your penis after taking a leak, no more spots of piss in my boxers
2; on your birthday you dont celebrate being around another year, but instead celebrate what you accomplished in that year.
Humm. I think i'm finally getting contempt with the fact that THIS IS IT. That's life, the way it's gonna be till i die. Same shit every day, no miracle will happen, nobody is going to drag me out of my lonely shit, no QT GF will appear out of thin air, no good surprises will happen. That's it.
>>25248427
thanks pupper
>>25270139
This is the start of a nice life. Now the next step is to be grateful for what you do have. Learn to enjoy small things and find something to do that's cheap and you enjoy. I took up gardening & have 6 ckns. That sounds dumb but it makes me go outside every day and look around at nature etc Chin up robot :^)
>>25241463
Most of these girls' ones, the introspection, and as another anon said:
Just be yourself, as cringy or pathetic or embarrassing as you are, because it's not worth lying to yourself and people around you. In the end you'll either come off confusing or confused, or even more awkward than you actually are.
And recently, I learned not to chase anyone for any reason. No one gives a shit about your reasons and thoughts unless it coincides with their own, or if they're exceptionally bored.
>>25270653
Oh and cooking is fun and saves a ton of money too. I spend days cooking at the first of the month and bag and freeze it in one meal portions. Whole ckns and turkeys and hams, larger meats are cheaper to buy. Boil them until falling apart then pull the meat off the bones. Then crack the bones and boil another 40min or so strain the bones out. Put the soup broth in the fridge overnight then the next day put the hardened white fat off the top "I feed this to my dog" and BAM you got badaas broth to cook your Ramen noodles in.

>Sometimes people get lucky.
>Nobody gets lucky all the time.
Life isn't a race, Rushing to get married/House/Car/High Salary is stressful.
I couldn't wait to finish school then I couldn't wait to finish uni, then I couldn't wait to get a job.
Now I have a good job and I'm not happy.
I think surrounding myself with things makes me sadder. I was in a relationship with a girl because it was easy, I woke up one night after dating for a few months, watched her sleep and realised I couldn't care less for her.
>>25264392
I like you, Anon. We are all gonna make it.
No one is just nice or friendly for no reason. If someone treats you that way, it's because they want something from you. Friendships and romantic relationships only happen because someone thinks they can ggain something from the other person.

please do tell
Sometimes, you have to swallow your pride to get what you want, and if it's not what you want, it just might be what you need.
