Work out

It affects me quite a lot- bipolar can vary a lot in terms of how long swings last for different people. My swings are long, they last for like 6 months to a year sometimes. On the up, I'm motivated, charismatic, don't need much sleep, doing random shit all the time on a whim (which can be dangerous but I don't give a fuck at the time). On the down, which is now, I'm depressed as fuck, always tired, wishing I was who I was, not knowing which version of me is real, trying to maintain the life I created on the up but failing, trying to not be a burden to the people around me and generally an hero mode. How long do you think your swings might last?

>These past few years I could literally feel my intelligence "slip away"
Weird i have this feeling too, like im getting more stupid as times goes by, im 28 now, does all the unproductive web browsing, video game playing and not socialising wuith anyone starting to catch up to me ?
Am i starting to fall apart ?

I hate Rand but Crime and Punishment is good.

also drug abuse

I feel the same, because of my new job in programming I have to catch up with the newest technologies and I've been struggling quite a lot, but I think it's beneficial in the long run. A few years back I read something about your IQ decreasing when you're in holidays, which is why successful people tends to avoid long periods of vacation.

You should start doing a few intellectual exercises, not just reading/watching but actually doing: coding puzzles if you're into that, or human benchmark, that sort of things.

I don't like her either, I get her point but I just don't agree with it, it's kind of a childish view of the world in my opinion, but I enjoy reading authors I disagree with because I feel like I need to understand them anyway.

Yeah it's good to actually read her shit and form an opinion, rather than most people who hate on her just because it's cool but they know next to nothing about her literary philosophy other than 'yeah I've played bioshock'

This. Retards don't realise that Peterson is former Chad and only cares about the well-being of other Chads. If you're an incel, Peterson is the enemy.

Be glad you still have a friend, user. I ruined my friendship with her by begging her for a relationship when I was simply depressed and think she could fix all of my problems. Not a week goes by where I wonder what she must be doing. But I'm too embarrassed to talk to her, and because I ruined the friendship by dating for a year when I was too depressed to leave my room.

>be healthy
>stop being unproductive

Gee thanks for the advice, dad. What's next, never give up?

memes are just bastardizations of original ideas.
