REAL ADVICE for when life is unironically just Chinese water torture? I live in bumfuck nowhere, I'm going nowhere, nothing EVER changes, it takes it's fucking toll on me internally, I don't fucking want anything to do with this house anymore. Do I pack up and run from home? Take a long risky trip by foot to a city 100 miles from me? I have no freedom, no life of my own, no money, only income is my mother's, I don't have friends outside of the internet, even those are basically null and 1 even 15% "close". I basically have NOTHING going for me. Nobody is coming to save me.

Get a job.
>>
>>35081034
Not exactly possible at the moment.
>>
>>35081056
Move to a place with jobs for you
>>
>>35081436
It's not that I live in the middle of the desert. I live where there are jobs, I just can't realistically get one at the moment, even if theoretically I could soon. I don't know what other choice I have. I certainly don't aspire to wagecuck all my life.
>>
>>35081488
Why can't you get a job? Are you retarded or crippled in some way?
>>
>>35081494
I need a license so I just can't at the moment. It's kind of an aside anyways, my concern is my prospects. I guess the life I'm looking at shouldn't be obvious from my little rundown. I know what basic things I can do and I already plan to, I guess the point of my post is to show I'm desperate, and someone seeing that might give me a unique suggestion that might intrigue me.
>>
>>35081516
Is there a grocery store or something you could at least bicycle to?
>>
>>35081572
Don't have a bicycle I'm afraid, and walking distance is quite far, but it shouldn't be an issue. I can likely get a license soon. I don't know what happens past me getting a job though. It's like the only prospect I can see.

A job will give you money, routine, usually more confidence, and extra social practice. Most of us are going to work until we die, that's something you need to accept going forward. The goal is to build a life and a career that gives you enough meaning to make the toil of waging worth it.
>>
>>35081592
NTA but how the hell can work ever be meaningful? Work is by definition something one would rather not do. If you enjoy it and would do it even if you didn't have to, then that's a hobby, not work.
>>
>>35083671
It has to be a job where you tangibly help other people or build things. I'm an industrial mechanic. I hate working for big corpos, so what gives the job any meaning is the gratitude of the production line workers when I show up and repair a machine that broke.
>>
>>35084048
Right, that's nice but doesn't work if you have no interest in whatever others do/ are a schizoid. It's good that you find that meaningful though.
>>
>>35084070
The purpose of work is to fund your life outside of work. That being said, it can come with extra benefits or downsides, depending on what the actual work ends up being. But you're not completely stuck since you're allowed to find a different job if you hate the one you're in.

Because of retarded squatter laws, you need to have a job in order to get an apartment. So you would be sleeping in a homeless shelter for a while. Job market is fucked so you would be lucky to find a minimum wage job. Not worth the risk.

Go to Google and type in your birthday on AI mode and tell it to look at your birth chart and tell you whats going. It’ll tell you (astrologically) what’s going on and why. I’ve been on Google all morning and it’s basically explained my birth chart and everything I’ve went through in life exactly how a trained professional astrologist would and it’ll put things in perspective if that’s what you want. It words it’s responses like a human would. Now I know why I’m an isolated incel rn. Because I’ve been in Rahu for the last 18 years and it was tied to a karmic debt that me and my mom owed to my grandmom. You’ll never get these kinda answer tho if you’re stuck on religion.

But that's good?
