Only if you fucked your life up before that.

Not exactly "decent" ($4-5 an hour at best) but I've made decent money using a combination of Amazon Turk, Swagbucks, and Surveyjunkie. Look into it if interested

I've heard virtual bookeeping might be a good job to work from home, but unfortunately I haven't had time to look into it yet. Keep posting here and let me know if you figure anything out, my ultimate goal is to eliminate direct day-to-day contact with any supervisor.

10 days of 12 hour days left, then I'm on a fast track to move to a smaller, cheaper, less terrible city. I'm dying inside, but I'm almost there.

Not necessarily. Meditation and the practice of mindfulness is always going to be beneficial. It will allow you to be more in tune with your emotions and help you understand why you feel the way you do. I cannot vouch for meditation because that method did not work for me but being mindful is useful for anyone. I've chosen journaling as my method to mindfulness.

>Meditation and the practice of mindfulness is always going to be beneficial.
You know how I know you have zero actual knowledge about this besides from your subjective experience and what you read from others?

>being mindful is useful for anyone
There are cases of people with such significant mental disturbances that this is not beneficial for them. Would you take responsibility for advising this if it harms someone?

That's why it's recommended with people who suffer from mental issues that cripple their normal day to day life to seek a professional instead of risking their mental illness escalating.

How do I stop giving a fuck?
During puberty I developed serious social/general anxiety and depression and didn't start treating until recently. Even dropped out of college because of that shit.
Doc prescribed an SSRI, phenibut and some shit for panic attacks.
Constant anxiety really negatively affects my health since I now have hypertension, high heart rate, panic attacks and migraines.
I don't think meds are gonna be enough to help alone so I'm making serious lifestyle changes. Finally started exercising, eating veggies again and reduced garbage food/refined sugar from my diet.
But being in constant anxiety while outside still presists and I really need help with that.
I feel great when I'm drinking with friends at an party or a bar but everyday outside walks are very stressful and paranoic

Looking for a few goals to set for this month. This is what I have so far. Any ideas?

Attached: goals.png (412x244, 8K)

I need to make a commitment to whining less.

Are you here to complain or to improve?

Just remember this. While whining is bad, it's better than not engaging and talking about the issues, of course constructive talk is better, but if that's not possible it's better to whine than bottle it up. Just don't be a fag about it.

I would encourage you to take this a step further. Consider only complaining about things that might improve from complaining. Poor treatment at work may be an example of this.

>Just don't be a fag about it.
Yeah, that's the hard part. And since I don't drink and take drugs anymore, there are no dedicated times and spaces for me to pour out all the shit that's inside my head. Except for this place, of course.
Maybe I should do therapy.

You can't you can only minimise it, learn social Darwinism, people who are skinnier tend to be Skinner because they're always anxious, if you want to not giving a fuck, fix whatever insecurities you have, that's what kept me back, once those insecurities have been removed you're good to go

I've been recently going by the advice I got here- take every opportunity, accept every invitation.
Leads to some cool stuff. Like yesterday I was in the moshpit for the first time ever. Normally at gigs I stand somewhere near the DJ's table for the acoustics and relative solitude. Yesterday I charged into the fray shirtless and it was fun as fuck.

("On the other hand, we have very little scientific information about the potential risks of mindfulness practice. Descriptions are emerging of problems brought on by mindfulness practice, including panic, depression, and anxiety. In some more extreme cases, mania and psychotic symptoms have been reported. These problems seem to be rare, but nonetheless significant, and require further investigation and guidance." (from the last article)

Well, you are in huge mental rut. I can go over so much topics but I'll stay short.

Everything is better than where you are currently heading, either suicide or life of below mediocrity. So go rush to psychiatrist and try to get the grip on life through therapy and medication if need be. If they hospitalize you, don't resists, everything is better for you than where you are heading and to steer a stuck wheen, you need equal force to unstuck it.

Is this Jeff workout enough for good abs gains?

The psychiatrist is probably a good idea, and you should do that. Other than that, it seems like you're completely aimless.

Do you have a goal? Where do you want to be in 5 years? Doesn't have to be a career (for me, the job I do is incidental, only serving as a sort of "price" I pay to do the other things I want.) Romantically, socially, day to day life, etc.

If you don't have any, develop some. Then, plot out the steps you need to get there. For example, I decided I wanted a dog, more free time, and to replace my relatively awful/toxic day-to-day interactions that were slowly making me into a misanthrope (I live in a large metropolis full of screaming schizophrenics, criminals, and mid-20s dramafags looking to start shit to make their lives more interesting) with more positive ones, and to be financially secure.

So I made a list
Financial Security
>First step: pay off student loans
>To achieve this, started working extra hours at work, eliminated all unnecessary spending, began doing online stuff as well as university studies and plasma donation to earn extra cash
>Paid off student loans in a few years
>Decided to go live in a smaller, cheaper city
>Began saving money to make this happen

Dog
>Began volunteering at an animal shelter to become become more familiar (I grew up with dogs, but still learned a lot)
>Became more financially secure
>Decided to move to a smaller city were my commute times would be cut down to 15-30 minutes

Social
>As mentioned, made plan to move to smaller, less toxic (lower crime, more moderate politically, cheaper, car-accessible (avoid public transit schizos/criminals and large commute times) city
>Cut off all interactions with people I considered to be unstable
>Focused on improving myself in order to be better able to affect the world around me

Anyhow, figure out what you want, break it down into small steps to get there. You can turn your life around user.

I really can't find the point where I have a realistic self-esteem. Like, for example, two days ago I was asked to help out with a thing by friends of friends. It might be fun for me, but would've required me to leave work early, and I like my work. They were supposed to contact me with the details and I got fuck all.
Today friends bugged me that I haven't contacted their friends first. The thing is, if I'm doing them a favor, why should I be the one doing the first move?
Am I being smug? Would contacting them first would've been a sign of a loser with no self-esteem? I can't tell.

Let me take a wild guess and say that your blinds are closed and curtains are shut. First thing you do is open them and open the window. Then clean your goddamn room. Do that first and come back for further instructions.

What's your parents height? If they are more manlet than you, you might just be grateful to God, you are higher than genetically predisposed.

Here's the thing. Mindfulness is not a magic pill. Meditation is not a magic pill. Anybody saying otherwise is a dangerous lunatic.

Vast majority of people get benefit from Mindfulness practices, provided that they understand what they are doing. If it's being used to suppress emotions for example, you're going to have problems. It could also cause problems if it's being used as an alternative treatment to something that absolutely requires professional help and medication.

Mindfulness meditation still is relatively simple, you can learn the basic gist of it if you sincerely put a few minutes of research into it. You can do it anywhere, anytime, for free and the chances of it being actively harmful for you are extremely slim.
If you're going to dismiss it because of a few rare cases where it had adverse effects... I don't really know what you're doing on Jow Forums seeing as injuries from exercise are far more common than injuries coming from meditating.

Again. We're talking about something you can do for *free* ( as in, no doctor or medicine company is getting money from you doing it - companies that often fund research btw. ) that has both research and historical backing showing benefits.
I'm going to need much much more research that proves it's actively harmful than a few articles.

Pls hlp

I think my manic period ran out. Lasted for like two years.
Or maybe today is just a bad day. Nothing happened but I'm sad.

After one more failed attempt at a relationship I've come to realize though some reflecting and reading that I might have a serious case of Schizoid type personality.

The few relationships I've been in have been nothing but a drag and even though the girls seem perfect for me before we get into a relationship, I end up feeling absolutely nothing for them and it's just a massive energy drain for me.
On top of that I have 0 friends I actually socialize with. Not 0 close confidant. Even in my family I rarely talk to anyone about anything concerning me.
I don't think I genuinely enjoy myself while socializing once. Every time I tried to put some effort in for even just a couple of days, I would literally shut down after a while. Like literally just be around people and not have the energy to utter a single word. Just walk around like some robot.

And now that I looked into my condition a bit more I feel completely defeated. Like before I knew what It was I just considered myself lazy or whatever to socialize and made excuses that I just haven't meet the right people or had some other priorities. Now that I know what it is, I feel like I'm helpless to do anything about it, like it's set in stone. A part of my core being.

I don't wanna live my life alone because it feels meaningless but I can't be around other people. How can I change the core of my being?

Have you ever had a friend? Try reconnecting. You've got us, but we don't count as even one whole person.
>Like literally just be around people and not have the energy to utter a single word.
I get like that sometimes. It's good to find a person in the group that you feel is easy to talk to and stick to them. Talk about whatever, it doesn't matter, the conversation will flow organically.

basically in high school, no
In college maybe 1 close friend whom I would talk with mostly during lectures but rarely hung out outside of that.
I would go to lectures and that would be my dose of "socializing" for that day, then go back home. Rinse and repeat for 6 years (med school)

I barely even post here, ever. I don't have it in recent memory, when the last time was that I participated in any form of socializing here on Jow Forums.

0 internet acquaintances too.

Only recently have I realized that something is off with me and now I feel like I've gone too deep into schizoid.

Yes, I have made some tweaks, but nothing noteworthy. I am letting it stew for a little bit see how it shakes out. Let me know if there is something that doesn't make sense or it could be better

I hear you. You want to have the best, most optimum, most efficient information. The thing is, without actually doing you are just a monkey fantasizing about things. I am going to make a guess, because this used to happen to me, you find the most optimum best solution after weeks of research, you start the thing and within an hour or a day you hit a major roadblock that you hadn't theorycrafted and everything falls apart.

Then you repeat the cycle. If this didn't work it wasn't you, it was the solution, back to spending weeks researching things. Does that sound right?

The best solution is to remind yourself that reality > theory. We are each individuals with our own quirks, ideas and ways of being. How can some thing on the internet help you with that. "But it's like financial things, stocks don't care about that" you might say. It's true. But a blog doesn't know how much liquid assets you have. It doesn't know when you want to make profit, how you specifically react when you lose 10% of your capital.

The best teacher is reality. This is why a monk sitting in a cave sounds good but suck in reality. We can all think in our heads how great something is, but until you do it, it's just your imagination, there is nothing real about it.

Let reality hit you in the face. Limit your research, actually do. You will learn more, actually remember things better, and then your research can be laser focused because you know the pain point you hit. Always limit your research, your information gathering. Always.

>med school
Did you graduate? If you did, shut the fuck up and go to work as an intern. Doctors don't get a luxury of having friends or personal lives.

My painful lesson. I wanted to have a business, I was going to try things out first. I theorycrafted the hell out of this. I learned that probiotic supplements are the most bought supplement.

So I figured I can test this business out, I bout 250 bottles of probiotics. Bought empty bottles and made my own stickers and moved the probiotics over. I had bought them super cheap and I was going to make about $10 profit per bottle. So $2,500 if things worked out, minus the amazon fees, but it was a worthwhile investment I thought.

I had the perfect supplement, the perfect way of not going all out and contacting a supplement company because you need to buy 500-1000 bottles minimum from them, etc.

The theory was awesome, until I went on amazon, went to sell it and amazon said "We need to see your research and ingredient list verified by a laboratory before you sell supplements"

Owned.

Reality slapped me in the face. You see my theorycraft didn't account for this at all. Should I have done better research on Amazon sale policies, probably, but at that point it wans't as obvious.

I won't even talk about how many hours I wasted looking for the best workout ever, only to realize that i hate the shit out of it...

I'm telling you to look at my initial claim. I'll spell it out for you again, since you have difficulties here. The claim was that 'in some cases' mindfulness is not advisable and may be dangerous. Want me to spell out some more things you should understand? It does not say there are no benefits to mindfulness, it says that you should not just advice something right off the bat if you don't know whether the person has psychotic or other tendencies which may heavily impact their mindfulness experience. Sheesh, these 'Murricans.

>Sheesh, these 'Murricans.
Pretty ignorant of you to immediately assume someone is American simply because they do not agree with your shitposts. I'm European.

They cannot refute that. There is no way to claim that something is advisable in 100% of cases. That's not even funny on your part. I'm done here.

>There is no way to claim that something is advisable in 100% of cases.
Yes, there is. Breathing is advisable in 100% of cases if you want to live. QED.

>That's not even funny on your part. I'm done here.
Oh no, please don't leave! Whatever will I do without your condescending posts!

You're just trying to be clever.

Mindfulness has overwhelming evidence that it's beneficial for most people ( my dump barely scratches the surface ). Just because there are some rare outliers doesn't mean that it shouldn't be recommended for general public.

Many forms of exercise can be harmful for some people.
There are plenty of foods considered healthy that can kill people.
HUGE amount of common over-the-counter medications can have adverse effects. Not to even mention prescription stuff.

Nothing in the world is 100% perfect for every single person. The point is that it's beneficial and safe enough for great majority of people and you have not given anywhere near enough evidence to give me a reason to think that I shouldn't recommend it to any random /sig/ger.

It's GREAT that you are critical. Don't get me wrong. Never ever give up skepticism and ability to regard information with criticism, but be aware of your own biases as well.

To further soften my rather blunt approach to you, I rather you DO think about Mindfulness critically and learn to understand it.
The people who are most at risk for negative effects from it are those who don't even try to understand what it's supposed to do and accomplish. They just think "ooh, shiny mystical panacea, fuck the doctors, I'll cure my broken leg with some sitting and thinking".

simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/False_analogy
Lol, caring about someone being condescending, ok.

You just talk to yourself, not to me. I asked if the poster would take the responsibility if they advised it to someone with fragile mental disposition, which would end in bad results. I didn't get a response to that, kek. I never claimed mindfulness is wrong for general population. Considering how many schizos and otherwise trouble people you find on chan, advising it on here is not a good idea, period.

Bonus: You don't understand the difference between qualitative and quantitative research.

Straw man. Keep it.

Anyway, now I'm really out of this, don't bother answering.

>Considering how many schizos and otherwise trouble people you find on chan, advising it on here is not a good idea, period

There is no dream job. Even doing things that you really enjoy can be a pain in the ass sometimes. Case in point, I love being a developer, it's like working with puzzles everyday, but sometimes I just don't feel like working with puzzles, I rather just chill but I can't.

There are multiple speeches out there about the myth of having passion for what you do. I will save you the time of watching them. The key is you are passionate about things you are good at. So anything you get good at you will be passionate about.

Having said that if you like sports then get better at physiology and anatomy. Start finding online clients making your current location etc. Keep doing well and the word of mouth will spread.

At best I can go up to 3 or 4 days.

Thank you, you are a lifesaver. I'll put this into practice.

Imagine being so mad that someone called you fag that you type up 4 paragraphs about how THERE IS LITERALLY NOTHING GOOD ABOUT THIS PLACE

Sour grapes.
