good for quitting drugs though.

I don't need empty feelgood

Just remember this:

The man who does something is better than the one who does nothing.

If you are doing something to improve yourself, no matter how minuscule that is it you are still better than you were.

Thanks for this thread. This is the last one I'll view tonight. Too much negativity on these boards

Alcohol is a drug and it's far more destructive than all the others

now pick up some books, become /fitlit/, and thrive

>We're ALL gonna make it brahs
im not

Christ is watching over you and wants only the best, no matter what hardships you're going through. Keep pressing onwards

Based as fuck.

After years of not really connecting with people and always feeling like I'm at the fringe of any group I'm part of, I finally found a circle of people I really belong to and to whom I feel appreciated and valuable.

feels so good frens. remember, if it doesn't make you happy, DON'T DO IT. i spent last year being miserable and depressed but couldn't find the courage to resign. now it feels like i've been reborn.

thanks for this thread OP

we're all gonna make it

We’re all gonna make it boys

true. my mistake was trying to enjoy it for 3 years when i clearly didn't.

Lol I'm in the same boat.
Engineer right out of school, got a job three years ago, and changed from a normal human being into a depressed shit. I hate every single day waking up and knowing I have to go to that place. I finally started applying for jobs elsewhere a few weeks ago. Nothing yet, but I have time.

>fit girl at work told me to drag her into a washroom, strip her naked, and fuck her until she can’t walk straight
How the fuck do you even live up to that expectation the first time you're with someone? It takes time to get to that level of understanding what they need to get the gears spinning.

im glad I came into this thread, godspeed user. Aggressive encouragement is the best encouragement

I haven't been hitting the gym for very long so this is premature, but I have stuck to my gym schedule so far despite working overtime, and I've had the extra energy to keep the house clean. I used to drink every day but now I only drink on weekends. I will continue to cut back until I only drink on special occasions.

I'm early in my journey but I'm determined...

I used to be a lard filled autistic dude. Couldn't socialize, Average mile run took about 15 minutes, And worst of all my face looked like the roundest watermelon you could conjure. It was hell. I knew this, and i hated it. (going to sound like a fag when i say this but) Looked in the mirror one day and thought "Is this really who i want to be?" I started off phisically, then Mentally, and then finally Socially. I lost the weight and then started lifting. It felt amazing. Every time i lifted i felt like i was powerful and stronger than i really was. I felt more confident, and found it easier to talk to people. Made me feel like they saw me as a person, and not just a lard ass.

Fast forward now.

Grills compliment me on my muscles, call me cute, etc. Found me a goth lifting gf that i would die for. I can now run a mile in 9 minutes and dead-lift 200. I am still not completely where i want to be, but to say the least, i am happy.
Bros, we don't lift for girls, muscles, or anything else materialistic. We truly do lift for ourselves. We lift to become better people than we are now, Remember that and you will succeed.

TL;DR We will all make it, no matter what. Self betterment is Key.

Where is an acid dealer when you need them?

I'm not comparing myself with the hypothetical worst version of myself.
I think about what i could be and that fills me with regret

listen to this user - you gained a great perspective shift as many have when exposed to psychedelics, but the returns really are diminishing.

Amen

wholesome af

user this is a happy thread please be polite.

Good job user! Too much sugar can cause problems.

Good work m8, I haven't been drinking for a few months now and haven't smoked pot in 4 despite sleep problems and living within 2 minutes walking distance of a dispensary. Also starting to get gains back, eating more regularly and cleaner (no carbonated/sugary drinks or dairy) so feeling pretty good over here.

Nice man.

ye man, life is going upwards. I have now a job which i really like, nice colleagues and a fine wage. Also I‘ve finally started my drivers and motorcycle license. I‘ve met a new girl and ye.

Exactly this!

Is this advisable for your average Jow Forums browsing young man who's trying to get his shit together? Is acid legal in your country and did that bother you at all? Did you take it with a person to watch over you? Is acid something people just do, or is it really more taboo?

I love all you retards and I'm glad to see y'all doing so well :'-)

Remember user, look her in the eyes always and stand up straight

How to know if you should let someone go out of your life?

There are these girls that are horrible to me whenever I'm around but get upset when I don't include them in things. I've known them for years.

Are these people friends user? They've said I can talk to them if I ever have a problem.

Got 2 assignments for programming and felt too depressed and stressed out to work on them. Had about a million negative thoughts going through my mind at 100mph and couldn't breath whenever I committed to doing the work. This week is going to be different, I'm going to stop being a bitch and ask for help on the stuff I'm stuck on.

No more blaming laziness on mental health. I've got the resources available. It's time to try harder.

brother keep these creatures out of your life

You sure?

I only really realised it last night when we were smoking weed. All of a sudden everything I did or said was a cause for ridicule.

People man.

yes bro these are gains goblins/dopamine goblins/succubi. free yourself

how about you though. You doing good my man?

Can't help you there, I know a chemist. People online swear by Darknet vendors, apparently acid cooks really have their shit together right now.
Unless you have a history mental issues, I would preach psychedelics to almost anyone. In my opinion it's as central to understanding humanness as having sex, starting a family, falling in love, having hopes and dreams, whatever one can experience that makes us human beings. Acid is highly illegal in my country. I'm a med student so I'm very aware of pharmacology and physiology, and that illegality has nothing to do with how harmful a drug is. I'd never take a drug I'm not comfortable with circulating through my body. LSD is one of the most pharmacologically safest psychoactive drugs on Earth.
I did it alone, but I have taken psilocybin several times with friends. I think if I did this alone and it was my first trip, things could have been challenging at points. An hour in a bad trip is a long, long time. 12 hours trapped inside a bad experience is something I don't wanna know about.
If you're interested in the psychedelic experience look up Terence Mckenna on youtube and read Food of the Gods. I think they're a miracle from the universe to help humanity coordinate a new perspective and help us develop and grow.

I'll be honest I've never tried acid or any other psychedelic so I'm not the most informed. I will say it's pretty common where I'm at I'm in highschool still though(finishing my senior year I'm 18 relax) a lot of guys I know take it regularly. Two were tripping this weekend. Most of them have described it as a good time that does reveal some stuff to you. Some of that might be true. But also its probably somewhat justification to keep using it like how potheads do. Personally I won't use it because of the cache in leaves in your mind afterwords and how illegal it is. But its up to you man. If you have any friends that do drugs you should be able to get some easy enough. I just wanted to let you know that there's a good side and bad side before you make your choice. Stay safe fren.

>I won't use it because of the cache in leaves in your mind afterwords

Okay, you should do a lot of research before considering doing this. Keywords to understand before taking illegal drugs are metabolism, pharma kinetics, pharma dynamics, lethal dose 50, toxicology, receptor activation, so forth and so on.
What I'm getting at if you're truly objective and research this area, you will at least be confident LSD is safe to take, as far as physical harm goes. I did psychedelics for the first time at age 21. It would have probably been a better idea to just wait a bit more. Then again I've never had a bad experience on psychedelics, although some moments have been uncomfortable and hard to deal with.
The real joy of the psychedelic experience for me is it addresses exactly the malaise every other thread on Jow Forums is discussing. "Why do I feel like my life is without meaning, brahs? Life without a 10/10 GF is meaningless. I'm too short. My jawline isn't as pristine as I wished. How do I fix my depression?" etc the list goes on. Psychedelics taught me everything is exactly as it should be. I've been so happy for the past 6 years I don't whether to shit or go blind, and I attribute at least 70% of it to tripping and the life style changes I've made. The "All the love I need is already in me" lesson was priceless to me.
Whatever you decide to do, this technology exists and your name is written on it in giant golden letters.

Based hippie poster. I'll take what you've said into account fren. I still don't feel comftable with the ideas of psychedelics personally but I'll give them more though then previously perhaps. Im glad they helped you though. Stay safe and remember we're all gonna make it fren

Good for you user. Its never been a problem for me but I can see how it woukd be if you did it all the time. You got this!!!

It's actually really hard to quit. I don't recommend it ever. It's disgusting and I wish I had never started.
The availability is what makes it hard to drop.
Thanks bro

Good to hear fren. Me myself I'm laying off coke. It's already been five weeks. Still have a long way to go.

this is how i'm trying to be. job search is brutal

I haven't had a cig in a long time. I smoke cigarlos every couple weeks. And some random herbs every once in awhile. I love the feeling of a cig but the last time I had them I went overboard and got a little sick so i haven't had any since then. I know it's degenerate.

Don't do that

Say hi to Klaus for me

I got a nice normal gf

Cool thread, OP. I had two beers yesterday and feel like it killed me at the gym today, but I pushed through. Hard as hell. I was making awesome progress on week 3 of a cut. Was feeling shitty til now.

As of last night I'm no longer a khv :)

Thank you user, very cool.

Pretty based, user. Grats.

Grats on first compliment user, now go earn your second.

I personally wouldn't advise it per se but I wouldn't say don't do it. It's something you should thoroughly research beforehand and decide for yourself. First time you're probably better off with a trusted friend.

Could also look into psilocybin because you can grow them yourself or forage for them, although you REALLY need to research how to Id them in the wild and be 100% sure on the Id.

I find the duration to be more comfortable as well, ~4-6 hours.

I am so young, I have nothing but time and an ever expanding and massive toolkit of problem solving techniques, some of which are thousands of years in the making.
My prospects are immense.
I have gone from complete 129lbs dyel who could not complete even one pull up to a healthy 142lbs and can do 5 pull ups.
I have switched to a 3000kcal diet and a Scooby workout plan since I got some dumbbells.
I will achieve my goal body by at least fall 2020.
I have a bucket list of classics to read though. Trying to find a way to partition the work to be manageable.

I feel like a fucking machine.

I had a major problem with alcohol. I was self-medicating with it to avoid dealing with depression and hopelessness. I was a functional alcoholic though and could mostly fulfill all of my obligations despite getting shitfaced 3-4 times per week, but it was absolutely destroying my body and my relationships.

Been looking into making my own online store. I'm job hunting right now for when the semester is over and I graduate, but I'm hoping to invest some of my money into making the online store. I've always liked bussiness but I didn't take it as my major for some reason. I met a guy on my art discord who makes like 100,000 a year selling fucking anime stickers and it really got me thinking.
