Flash forward to today
> Guy I knew from back in the day comes out of nowhere making accusations against me and paypal debits my bank account for $200 without my permission
> Freak out, think these new developments are a sign of my life falling apart again

What do you think brehs? Is my life going to fall apart again? Been on an upward trajectory for a good while but today was a bad day.

>Be born a literal and social autist
>Breeze through my childhood with a minimal amount of friends and no productive hobbies or aspirations that go beyond wishful thinking
>Depression and severe social anxiety hit in middle school where I'm almost completely alone for three years
>Utterly fail middle school but still move on to HS
>HS is just MS but with more work and stress
>Become attached to a goth chick who thought I was cute and hang out with her for a couple of months

>Drama ensues between me and her friends because am indignant and "redpilled"

>Barely graduate HS and get a job helping GF's grandpa at his firm
>eventually quit job because mind numbing and unbearable
>Family and I lose apartment because of our lack of income
>Become on and off NEET as I had a hard time landing and holding a job due to inexperience, depression, and social phobia
>Got monotonous job working as liquor store clerk early this year and have to force myself to get out of bed and get through my 8 hour shifts 5 days a week and not let the constant social interactions get to me.

It's been two years since I've graduated high school and it seems like my life is stuck in a loop and will never advance beyond holding a minimum wage slave position. GF is thankfully still with me and we spend my days off together. Depression seems to have become chronic and I can hardly function around my family or at work anymore.

I think my narrative is just a dark comedy with an inevitable tragic ending and arcs that are either non-exist or inconsequential.

absolutely not
and I resent the fact that someone would even think that

>everyone gets a second chance at life to fix every mistake and make things wright
>you realize you are living yours already

>Friendless NEET since dropping out of college at 22
>morbidly obese KHHV since forever
>Lose weight and enlist in air force at 27
>make new friends, do fun stuff
>get laid a bunch and have some terrible but entertaining relationship experiences

Damn bro, congrats. As a somewhat lukewarm Christians the biggest thing that I always wanted was a Christian friend that I could relate to. Just keep grinding

Too blackpilled to really bother

Is it possible to just go to a rehab center?College? I'd say just grind for a year and see where that takes you

Doubt itll be happy
I'm trying to get stronger and stockpile gear/learn techniques that are useful in emergency/survival situations from simple shit like "I have a headache" "I'm having a hard day" to actual danger like "I just got stabbed" "this guy is after me". I've got first aid, tools, food, blankets, lights, some medicine, and other misc stuff. Working on finding a way to heat water without setting something on fire but it seems like electric heating elements have a really high wattage requirement.
My end goal is just to help people, really. My stuff has come in handy a few times

Redemption? From what? What crime did I commit to deserve this life? Its always been a story of me against the world, and the world won.

bad. I'm trying to sell my car so I can hire a marketing team for my product and finally start seeing some royalties and media acknowledgment. I have until the 1st of June to do so

Also, I figuratively work in a fucking asylum where the managers micromanage you by the security cameras that hover through every angle of the store. It's not a maximum level security level dude, it's a fucking thift store; let me take an extra cigarette break

My environment overall just does nothing, but accelerate the deterioration of my mind and I'm not sure how much longer I'm going to last, I'm really putting in my best foot forward here.

My life is legitimately starting to burn in front of my eyes and I just don't know what the fuck is going on at this point

I'm really happy for you user. Keep your eyes on the prize and keep that boat sailing straight sailor

>I have until the 1st of June to do so
user, I'm not sure how to tell you this, but...

*maximum security prison*
christ, I really fucked that part up

only antagonists deserve a redemption arc user
I'm just a side character

Yo! Was Envy a boy or a girl? A trap perhaps? I like FMA, but not enough to waste a google search on it.

Weakness is the gravest sin of all,for it opens the window for many other sins to take root inside your head.
He wasnt human. He could transform into literally anyone at any time no matter what so really he could be whatever you wanted him to be.

I did well in community college finally and a university is giving me a full ride to a bachelors
and it only took me until I was 26, after years of crippling alcoholism and antisocial behavior

Damn why is everyone making break throughs at 27 in this thread?

It's going well, half a year after a break up I'm getting in shape again, studying for a graduate program. Slowly I am gaining more interest in my studies and outdoor activities and decreasing the amount of time playing games. I guess my arc is rebuilding myself and finding who I am again.

>probably a narcissist
>been motivated and confident to work out and basically get better
>this girl and Etika going missing kind of fucked up my whole vibe
>gonna start working out Monday
>gotta focus on yourselves

>haven't made any in real friends ever because I'm mentally fucked
>mental illness gets worse because I'm lonely
>Still have to put up the facade of being normal in public so I can get by
>Have to deal with pretending to be normal as to not worry my relatives
>loneliness has pretty much ruined me to core

I'm going to college and getting help, but I'm not optimistic. I've had people in public look at me and be scared.

Envy is a shapeshifter with no gender in FMA Brotherhood. In the 2003 one he is male.

>give yourself an impossible task to try and di
that's just a recipe for misery and to damage your self esteem even further
The real advice is NOT to set big goals. Cause you will probably not achieve them and feel helpless, hopeless, and useless. You should set small goals, and once you've accomplished them go to something a little but bigger

I say this but I am spiraling down out of control, lost all my friends and dropped out of uni. So maybe don't listen to me

if I wasn't qualified I wouldn't have gotten the job, but yeah mostly I just finally got lucky
