read the rules stupid
No u
Im fucking miserable mate
Was down the deepest hole a few months ago, lifted hard and worked on my life to feel better again only for it to break down in shambles again. I really do dislike this life
Im holding up well exept for one thing
I have been wanting to serve my nation and join the army for a long time now, but i found that i cant because i was diagnosed with asperger in my early teens. And since my They have access to my medical records i cant just lie to them.
Otherwise im doing good. I just graduated from highschool and I have a job coming up.
i dunno why but whenever i use ibuprofen it usually makes me feel less empathic i heard it commonly makes women more apathic and men more empathic but to me (male) its different
Day by day.
My mom thinks I might need anxiety medicine as I often swirl into depressive or angry states. Not sure how anxiety meds would help that.
But today I'm good. It's been a fine day so far. Not angry or disappointed.
Day by day bros. We can all make it.
I'm in the Air Force
Honestly bro, you're better off if you have a job already lined up. I've heard the Army is a lot more military style, but it still can be political in certain career paths like the Air Force.
To me, it will always be a joke that no one gives a fuck how well you do in your actual job and only care if you volunteered and did college courses. It is also standard practice for higher ups to shit on you. On a daily basis, either to protect themselves or just for fun. That is a big reason why most enlisted guys in all branches get the fuck out as soon as their 4-6 year contract is up and no amount of begging from command will convince them to stay. The few who do stay have the "You wear big hat now, I wear big hat later" mentality. As in, "My leaders shit on me now, but eventually I'll be their rank and I'll get to shit on people".
Its not all bad though. The guys you work with you'll be super close to, having a free super high funded gym 2 minutes away is nice, free housing is cool, and college being cheap once you get out can't be beat. There is still nothing I've ever done that I am more proud of than joining, but I will definitely be getting out when my first term is over. And there is a reason most guys feel that way.
Honestly, if I were to wake up in the middle of the night with that thing sitting at the end of my bed, Id would hug him and pull him under my sheets, and go back to sleep while hugging him
I've gone well past my early goals, but I'm still nowhere near where I want to be.
I am also curious if it's even possible to find love.
That worries me a lot.
GF has left the country for a month.
I'm actually fucking excellent and feeling this good is justified because I actually deserve to be happy.
I had this moment a couple months ago that broke me completely as a human. I went full binge on drugs and alcohol and food.
Then I found meaning in myself and my struggles to be a better man tomorrow than today. I want to be proud of the man I am tomorrow, and the next day.
I know this motivation and feelings won't last, so while they do I'm building long term habits to fall back on when it does falter. I'm gonna make it, or I'm going to die trying. There are no other options now.
Are you in the US?
If so, then lol no they do not have access to your medical records. If you never had Tricare, you're fine.
Go to Jow Forums and post about your situation in /meg/
Been having a rough time with my wife. We make lists of things that annoy us about each other. Her list read like a list of aspergers symptoms
post list fagget
Where the fuck am I supposed to get advice? Jow Forums is shit, that albeit sometimes gives out some good advice, it's full of people that have no idea what they're talking about. My parents are dead, and I have no paternal figure in my life. I'm entirely alone. Where do I go for wisdom, besides quick Googling (that more often that not gives shittier advice than Jow Forums)?
You deserve it buddy
normies don't care about us, "metnal fitness" on a board that tells manlets to kill themselves
>health and fitness
>cant talk about mental health
Fucking mods
I've been reading Meditations by Marcus Aurelius.
Dude commanded legions, was emperor of rome, and was a true chad. Could be useful to read it. It's helped a lot for me and I was raised by a basedboy.
I live in sweden where everything is related to the state.
I've been hallucinating for a few months now, so I'd say shits alright
I haven't been lifting for 6 months now. I lifted for one year, only to realize that I'm not alone because of my looks. Lifting won't solve my problems.
she is getting railed hard
anyone else think Jow Forums is unironically more pathetic than Jow Forums?
been on zoloft for a little over a week.
I know it can take a while but I don't feel any different, and if anything i feel worse. Suicidal ideation, no energy, less appetite now
this is a meme drug
Found these lads from britfeel, they make me feel pretty okay so I give em a listen, kinda helped with my mental illness, virtual friends etc
youtube.com
What meaning did you find and how did you find it? I'm curious.
Good choice. I wouldn't say Marcus was a Chad though.
You should wait for few weeks before shit starts working properly. Talk to your doctor about it if you feel it has no effect on you. Maybe some different anti depressant will work for you.
Could be doing better, I am losing weight but day by day I can feel myself losing my sanity, I have friends but it's just not helping, trying to talk up this girl has been a succes but she never texts me, I only do that. Fucking bs but otherwise no suicide yet
Not good
My intrusive thoughts are trying to convince me that I'm a closet pedophile and it's fucked me up so bad I don't know what to think anymore
Suicidal intentions can increase the first few weeks especially for young people
Give it another 2-3 weeks
If you still feel terrible either increase the dose or switch
I switched from Sertraline which didn't help at all to Venlafaxine that helped quite a bit
>tfw diagnosed with schizoid PD
It's a rollercoaster.
Remember that how antidepressants work is try one for a month, then switch to another if that doesn't work, then switch to another if that doesn't work, then quit because they won't work.
That being said most people I know close to me are pushing me onto the anti-depressant jew and I won't do it.
>last girl that was interested in is now 1500 miles away in the army and I'm not sure if we could last through a ldr
>dont see any of my friends, no one hits me up, no one wants to hang out when I ask
>last friend I tried to hang out with has flaked 3 times and is now mad that I've come to expect her to just flake
>decided to stop being friends with a girl that I've known since childhood because she told me she probably couldn't hang out while she's in town from uni because of online classes. She proceeded to post all over social media about how she hikes and goes shopping almost everyday, just like last summer, and I'm just tired of trying
>sleep cycle is totally fucked
>have work almost everyday, but only a few hours a day so I'm still in debt
>also work with an exgf I tried killing myself over, so that's fun
>spend most of my time trying to practice guitar and drinking espresso
>feel more lonely than ever before
>complete loss of motivation, don't want to practice or lift anymore
>trying to read philosophy, but I'm a complete brainlet
>just wish I could just go to sleep and never wake up
I'm a fucking failure, but it's been like this for a while so I guess I should be used to it. I really don't know why I keep going.
>Meditations by Marcus Aurelius.
literally boomer tier
Recommend something better then faggot
>marcus aurelius
>boomer tier
really?
how so?
I've been working out a lot and started feeling good and positive about my life. But just today I almost had a breakdown at my office because of how shitty my work life is and forever will be.
As a 30 yo boomer I feel like it's too late to start over at some new job and too late to live off my hobbies so I just pretty much just would like to die.
I filled out my fafsa again today and it really hit me that I'm going to be thousands of dollars in debt and stuck with a degree I don't want. I'll probably just kill myself once I get out of college and have to move out of my parents' house.
just fake your death bro
