How do I defeat the despondancy inducing nihilism that comes with thinking about what I will do with my life, what jobs I will get, how much money I will even be able to make in my life, the extent of what I could realistically acheive, etc? I don't have much driving me. I want to get a job just to have one, as I never have at the age of 21. Almost no progress was made in the last 10 years of my life. If I'm as far behind as I am, and my family couldn't do shit, I don't have much of an example to give me any hope whatsoever.My uneducated view of my prospects is that I will spend 10 years being a wage slave unable to afford anything considerable at best. I don't want to live life being an industrial slave selling myself out and descending evermore deaply into derealization. Again, this is an uneducated assessment, just going off of what I've observed in my life so far. I have absolutely nothing to kickstart me, and considering the sheer absence of anything of note in my life, I have to wonder if I'm just too retarded to go anywhere. A lot of stuff just seems like a humiliation ritual.

Create some meanings despite their being no iherent meanings of reality. It's a big question that you can answer for yourself. If not for those meanings, life feels aimless and pointless. I know. Nihilism got me years ago and I've wandered the dark roads of my mind to find some answers.
>>34972339>Almost no progress was made in the last 10 years of my life.>21Bro what. You have nothing but time.If you're gonna rope and nothing matters anyway then what do you have to lose. The world is your oyster. Go to trade school and build cabinets. Fuck off to Alaska and work on an oil rig. Join the military and fight for ZOG. Do literally anything other than bitching here about your lot in life at the old age of 21.You have no investment, no sunk cost, no loans I assume, no wife, no kids, literally nothing holding you back. The only thing you're selling yourself to is your own comfort in doing nothing.
>>34972357You don't need to tell me this, I already know exploding my face apart with a shotgun is an available option. I'm however, looking for an alternative.>>34972361Easier said than done, but I do know of some changes that could enhance my introspection and maybe help me arive at something, even if that's not promised, and I am again, most likely retarded.>>34972364I've had a terrible life by many measures which I won't go into here, and no force in my life to prepare me for adulthood in this world. I grew up being handed causes for nihilism at almost every turn. Forgive me if my escaping youth and the void of change in my life over the course of 10 years hasn't lead to optimism. >The only thing you're selling yourself to is your own comfort in doing nothing.I'm already on the course to getting a job. I'm soon to get a license so I can even drive at all. I was hoping someone with experience could give me something substancial and not merely insist on the supposed unmaterialized wealth I have. "the world is your oyster" means absolutely nothing to me if I have no path.

>>34972409>"the world is your oyster" means absolutely nothing to me if I have no pathYour purpose is to find purpose. If you're genuinely looking for a path and willing to try new things and take leaps of faith, then you're already on the path. You don't have to see over the horizon, you just have to walk towards it.
