So I started studying CS 2 years ago. It was hard, but I somehow made it through the first two semesters. I already didn´t feel too good about myself at that point. Then the last year it got way worse. I became severly depressed. My "friends" perform all way better than me, and it feels like I am good for them if they want something to laugh or drink and want to feel better about themselves, because I am such a low IQ loser and also incel who doesn´t get laid. They all deliver top grades, while I failed every exam this semester. It never was as bad as it is now. Knowing that they all do better in every aspect while I suck at everything makes me want to give up. The place where I live is also terrbible. If I open the window I get grilled from the heat, so I sit in my room without sunlight all the day. I am at a point, where I have zero motivation anymore. I am not even able to brush my teeth on a rugular basis anymore. I don´t enjoy life as a whole anymore. It just feels like endless suffering.I also can´t concentrate and propaply have ADHD. Two weeks ago, I spent some time at home with my father. It did make me feel a bit better and I enjoyed being there way more. But he has high expectations on me and also gets loud very fast. So being there longer makes me feel terrible as well. I am at a point where I don´t know what to do anymore. I really can´t continue like that. Because when I do, I will keep failing my exams and end up having nothing.
What the fuck should I do Jow Forums ? How do I become a successful businessman? I kinda want to leave everything behind me. But where should I go? My low IQ will propaply always follow me and make life hard for me
Suicide is always an option, user. No, seriously, it is. Everyone saying you shouldn't kill yourself won't lift a finger to help you or even listen to your problems. They want you here in this hell with them.

Change the way you learn. If you think you’re giving it your all but you don’t get the results you want, then that means either you’re not giving it your all or you’re trying to learn the wrong way. Use YouTube as a resource to access material that is more clear and instructive than your professors. Also coding is something that in order to get better at, you need to be doing consistently. Don’t make the mistake of waiting til the weekend to do hw / assignments and cram and then forget

degree is a waste of time. get an associates degree in cs and then teach yourself

compute4 science is hard and you will be a miserable wagie after university. you should maybe switch fields and do something like finance or start your own business. you dont need to be extremly smart to be financially independent. you should definietly have sex and work on yourself. I study medicine and I know guys who are way dumber than me but richer, just because they have it all figured out. We will both get there.
Nathaniel Peterson
Use better language to describe yourself and not wallow in self pity. Be positive dude you're literally alive right now and get to live better than any rich king from 100 years ago

Compensate low IQ with hard work. Compare yourself to the past you, not your friends. Start running, aerobic exercise gives you a little IQ boost.
I have a friend sort of like you. He's studying CS but still asks me basic computer related questions on discord. I had to teach him to to download torrents not long ago. He must feel like a mega brainlet compared to the nerds in his class.
Charles Rivera
>compute4 science is hard and you will be a miserable wagie after university no. I am a CS grad and have a very comfy job. you just need to find a small to medium sized businesses that will hire you fresh out of school.
Christopher Jackson
Somewhat similar situation here; I'd stick the school out (or take a break) and travel. Find religion; I recommend the church of the subgenius (pull the wool over your own eyes).
Leo Foster
how the fuck to people like them get through to exams/classes. I would say of myself that I have a broad and profound way of IT, but I was panicking the first day I stepped into 'compsci class' in fucking high school with all the logic & math
Ethan Peterson
Im in the similar situation op, just going to get my degree no matter what and then think about my life starting all over again doing other shit, prob using crypto gains to start a business or else, and will keep the degree as a safe alternative if all goes wrong, i got mechanical engineering and while some aspects of it are really interesting, the department and the uni is mindblowing bad for your mental health overall
Christian Diaz
Because the knowledge isn't actually the same. One of my fellow students is a genius at maths and programming but cannot into basically anything else (including computers and "common sense" computing).
Xavier Gutierrez
>start a business or else, and will keep the degree as a safe alternative if all goes wrong, i got mechanical engineering and while some aspects of it are really interesting, the department and the uni is mindblowing bad for your mental health overall You nailed it with that. I plan on doing the exact same thing. Just getting that god damn degree as a backup and for my ego anymore at this point. I worked before I went to university easily 60 to 80 hours a week and never complained. I even liked it. But going a tenth of that time to university or studying just makes me so depressed. But then again: Maybe I am just fucking low IQ
Gavin Brooks
Look up NoFap
Adam James
Don't be such a pathetic sick fuck, who's to say things won't be better next year, week or even tomorrow, if OP becomes in tune with himself and gets through this rough patch he'll have a much needed and necessary new perspective on life, in this case setting his esteem to succeeding at his own goals and not comparing himself to others
Ethan Brooks
>short the bottom
Jaxon Lee
I'd still advise user not to khs, but you got the point. Normies want suffering losers around to feel better about themselves.
Jacob Ortiz
I'm about ready to drop out of my comp sci program. I did well in my classes so far, just finished second year. I also kinda liked them. But I learned enough. I don't actually want a job in this industry. I've started my indie gamedev studio and I'm already making enough to live off of.
At this point I don't see any reason to go further in debt just to get a ticket to work in an industry I have no interest working in. I don't want a "job." I appreciate what I was able to learn at uni, but I could have learned it online for free, and I can't justify spending more when I don't want a job anyways.
> I sit in my room without sunlight all the day if you don't go into the sun regularily, that's horrible. probably adds a lot to your depression. i got my room dark all day too but i go sunbathing at the river almost daily. also take vitamin d, 5k-10k i.u. per day. you'll be less depressed and more productive
