Over the last year I stopped drinking, started working out, and began reading, which I havent done since I was in school.
Yet, where Im from, everyone is drinking on the weekends, doing the same thing they always do. Although I see partaking in this as stagnation, I feel alienated, as I no longer really hang out with friends I used to have. They are normies, who are obviously unaware of the dark reality around them and the hard times upon the west.
Yet, I feel alone. I check social media from time to time, seeing old friends hang out, drinking and partying, and I have to admit it hurts in a way. Its been causing me to have a bit of depression, despite the fact that Im improving my life.
Is anyone in a similar situation? I used to be at every party, every bar night, every social gathering that was basically happening around my town. For the past year I've basically isolated myself, as there is no one else I know whose on the same page as me in terms of my outlook on life and the future.
What do you guys do to cope with the loneliness? To cope with the fact that you see the dangers that are to come that other people do not? I feel like im starting to lose motivation. Everytime I look at snapchat or instagram it digs at my heart a bit. I hate this feeling, and I have no idea what the solution is.
Im 37 and spend most days drinking cheap vodka alone in the dark. I tried self improvement but gave up. This way is better because I am generally happy as hell when drunk. I havent had a conversation with another human in 5 weeks or so, I black out a lot so I may have left.

Im 26. I feel like time is running out. Im more and more alone, and although Im improving, there is something inside thats eating away at me. When I was drinking with people, I felt happy in the time being, but unfulfilled. Now that feeling seems to be getting even worse.

"In a world of blind people, a one-eyed man is king" Never forget that, also I've never gone out drinking and I've spent most of my life alone looking at a computer screen, but I've never felt loneliness. Your body is simply trying to cope with a different life style, same as any addiction, you ask anyone that doesn't have that addiction and they'll be surprised to tell you that they're easily living a normal life. I've been addicted to masturbating and have been struggling back and forth on/off since a week ago, but I think I finally managed to get over it. But the ghosting images and the memory of the time wasted are still there and will be very slow to go away. You simply have to get over it.

I haven't had a social life since I was 20 (currently 27yo) in the last year I have quit the drinking and the drugs too, started working out a bit and keeping my mind clear.
Your problem is that you think you can't be around other people who drink because you aren't doing that anymore. You can still be a non drinker and go out to a social gathering and have a good time. Also get off snapchat and instagram, stop looking at what others are doing and stop thinking that you're missing out because someone makes a snap/post about how fun their life is.

Just know that you are not alone my friend. I am in your exact same spot. While I still struggle with sugar and porn, I am fighting against the degeneracy and try to better myself.
It really opens up your eyes to the depravity of the modern world. I believe there has to be a switch to our modus operandi. We all have been taught to live for the moment, which is the reason for hedonism and instant gratification.
With the switch in action, we no longer can subscribe to that idea. Instead. we have to understand that we are working towards a goal here, towards a future. A future that depends entirely on how well we do, how strong we become, how many people we manage to wake up and bring to our side.
So know that you are the first among your peers to transcend the modern world and show others what a noble cause it is. Be brilliant, be strong, be an inspiration to our people.
Be among the sparks to ignite the flame that purges the degenerates off of this earth once again.

26 ain't a bad age to turn your life around, never forget about people who realize it at 40 or 50 years old and have totally wasted your life. Take what you can get and make use for it, good luck.

wasted *their life.

Honestly going out drinking at a bar/club or any other gathering isn't as great as it seems when you think about it. It's costly, it's not really fun unless you are drinking, drunken conflicts and the morning hangover.

Thank you guys for the feedback. Is there anything to make this transition easier? Meditation? Or simply developing a sense of stoicism and suffering through the struggle until things get better?
