Does anyone else empathize with an odd feeling of depression/dread even though their life is improving? By all rights I should feel good right now - I'm on track to pass all my classes this semester meaning I have just one more semester left before graduating and finding a job in the financial sector. I'm making real progress in my hair loss fight for the first time in 2 years. I'm being groomed for leadership in my church and have relationships with people there who love me and want me to succeed. I'm way better off than I was a year or two ago but I still feel this pit in my stomach, a constant sense of dread. Idk maybe its just the knowledge that I'm gradually getting older.
What's on your mind?

I've been improving a lot too, but I feel the hunger for improvement just seems to grow and grow, nothing's enough. I feel still like a piece of crap and am unhappy about my looks even though I get quite a nice amount of female attention nowadays.

Maybe it never will be enough. I think I used to be happier about my appearance even though I look better now. I'm now comparing myself to extreme outliers instead of the average man, just what this site does to you.

Had similar thoughts ngl, just want to be a kid again but with extremely high PSL and be NT and just live a blessed worry-free life. Nothing good comes from thinking those thoughts but I still do.

I spent so many years getting a fucking shitty piece of paper and can't even find a position in the field. Because I lack motivation it's a serious struggle even applying. I spend most of my time rotting. I cbf spending time with anyone I can and lack friendship groups. Can't even go out and make friends because I don't want to explain to them I get by through government handouts and betting sports. Literally rotting away because im a mentalcel, I don't even give a damn about looksmaxing, it's not my problem, except staying lean. I want to get shit drunk now but I know that will just make the situation worse.

And yes I harbor feelings of life coming to an end, and missed opportunites.

I feel that last sentence so much. I didn't really feel it until my 23rd birthday that life is ending, then 24 hit and the feeling intensified. 24 was the first birthday I truly dreaded. Now 25 is on the horizon. I feel like I'll blink and be 30. Then I'll blink and be dead, JFL.

This, if I was aware of the Black Pill when I was 14 I would have used it to my advantage, my life could have been a 180 to what it is now.. Even by trying to fuck it up I had opportunities and destroyed it with my mentalcellism only to discover the mentalcellism was based on a false understanding and there was no problem all that time.

Should have listened to my blue pill therapist ffs.

I know bro, it only gets worse as the years go by. Im dreading another new years eve. Probably because im going to turn down the party im invited to for the reasons listed in my first post. Im literally choosing to cuck myself and stay home and drink.

I honestly wish I was just raised blackpilled. There is no debate in my mind I'd be happier. I don't know who to resent for being bluepilled, my parents, the greater world, etc. So many things I wish would have been different growing up. Being a human is an odd thing tbh - why do we dream of perfection constantly when life is so unrelentingly imperfect?

jfl at least you got invited to a NYE party jfl. ive spent every NYE and birthday with my parents tbh. this isnt necessarily a bad thing - i love them but it is not an NT way to spend every NYE and birthday, year after year.

I think it's human nature to dream, keep us going, I think it's some kind of problem solving mechanism. You are religious though so probably don't agree. Not your parents fault tbh, we are in a constant state of change and adapting as we go. I think we just need to be grateful for what we do have and make the ebst of our situations, create our own meanings. Probably easier said than done... If all else fails just look at pictures of truecels lol.

Ill try, maybe being drunk will make it easier.

Yeah I think you're probably right. No use in wanking to what could have been if life was perfect. It's not, so the question is where to go from here.

you seem pretty bright for 19, at your age and PSL i hope you are taking in the shit you read and applying it, at 19 you can almost be viewed as a teen/kid by others which is advantageous. Go nuts but make smart decisions. Not trying to be condescending. I was 'higher iq' than a lot of oldcells at one time giving me their take and thought I knew better. it wasn't what they were saying was wrong it was more that I couldn't relate to the experiences at the time. Even now iv'e really starting to realise why 70+ year old people are so relaxed and don't really give a fuck, it's not just the boomer money lol it's that at the end of their lives all that worry was unnecessary and they still ended up in the same place as others.... Went of on a tangent tbh.

thanks, yeah my personality is quite relaxed and low key. i don’t worry about shit, which is a blessing and a curse bc know i procrastinate on all my school work (i have project due today and haven’t even started jfl).

i honestly just wanna travel the world, work a little, meet a lot of ppl, and invest in real estate for passive income tbh. i honestly don’t wanna enter the workforce or slave away my youth. blackpill has made me come to the realization that youth is the best part of your life and why the hell should i slave away from 21-30? that’s what i should be doing after 30 tbh. have fun and make money with my body now, and use my mind to make $ later.

i honestly hope you do. become rich quick and invest in real estate and never work again. travel the world, do all your surgeries, live a fun life man. having a lot of money, but having a good work ethic (instead of being a spoiled brat) is the key to living your life as freely as possible. having money= no stress life.

Yeah that's more or less my friend and I's thoughts exactly. Part of the reason I'm pivoting from math into finance is to learn about investing on the job. We both always say that money = freedom.

When i was younger always felt like the point in life was to be good, hardworking and live as long as possible. As I’ve gotten older, to battle the existential dread that we all get (especially reading people’s comments above) Ive changed my life to focus on experiences. Maybe ive damaged my academic performance the past few years just so i could spend more time socialising, clubbing, drinking, travelling- but I know my life without having had these experiences would be unbearable. I don’t care if I'm sacrificing my health and academics to live an experience rich life tbh; it always makes me think of a quote by Hunter S thompson
Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride!

I've done a similar thing but I oriented myself towards an appreciation of beauty to combat existential dread I think

yes bro. i’ve internalized the idea of living life with no regrets.

writing it here first: i won’t be surprised if i drop out of college and get into real estate for a few years and work hard and shit to make enough money/network with people to reach goal of investing in property and getting very lucky. one thing is for certain, i will not slave away my youth.

For what its worth my advice would be to rip a degree in something out ASAP and then to go into real estate and make bank. If you're Chadlite+ and NT you can slay in real estate.

Math is pretty fucking sexy ngl. I've also always loved literature and religious texts so oftentimes I'll just meditate on a beautiful passage of something to feel better.

Damn. Well yeah I see your logic but I would just be very wary on bouncing on a bachelor's in this world of insane degree inflation. You need a bachelor's just to be considered human it seems.

Thats good to do bro, the difference between something being interesting and boring isnt necessarily the content, but is just the attention we pay to it. If you apply your full focus to just one passage (of anything tbh) it can be more rewarding than half paying attention to a movie.

From what I've heard business degrees are super easy and mostly about connections, could try that
I remember a Chadlite I roomed with freshman year who did a Business Ad degree and now does real estate lol, he was a douche though so I didn't keep in touch, had severe ADHD and was just a weasely dude

Dunno. Depends on what you mean by "little to no training" and exactly what salary range you have in mind. Trucking comes to mind, as well as driving school buses, I have a couple friends doing it that make 18-20 an hour just to drive a school bus. Easy shit.

I'm sure there are more options out there, that's just what I know of from personal experience. Someone here was talking about being a security guard and said he just spent most of the shift shitposting on his phone.
