This site is a huge time-waster. Namely, it gives you people who are much worse off to jeer at and correspond with. You will subconsciously feel better about your own failings and neglect the fact that time is dwindling. There are people on here in their fucking 40s and 50s who have spent DECADES as low-functioning adults / NEETs rotting on the internet. Imagine spending twenty years in prison voluntarily. That's what will happen if you get too comfortable. I'm 23, but I just let a year fly past me fucking around. You don't have as much time as you think you do. Good luck.

I'll answer this tomorrow if I get around to it

Stopped for a while and came back after my life went to shit. At some point you have to admit you aren't going to be that super smart/successful guy and just be a wage slave for the rest of your life. It doesn't matter what you do with most of your free time. Even if I submit to the urge to study chemistry so I can call myself smart later, even a Master's degree won't get me better pay than the entry level shit I'm working now. The world is absolutely fucked and rigged against you anyway.

Pretty sure this gets talked about a lot, but it literally does depend on the FIRST thing you do when you wake up. Or at least, how you start your day. Don't hop on any devices when you start your day unless it's for something necessary or important.

This kind of negativity is so retarded. If “everything’s fucked” and you have nothing to lose, then why choose to exacerbate your misery by wallowing in it? Who says that you have to study chemistry? Who says you have to resign to working a job you hate? It’s YOUR life you dumb motherfucker. Obviously things are fucked. I graduated with a computer science degree which is functionally useless. Sure I’m bitter and pissed off about AI. But it doesn’t mean that my life is over, nor should it. You have the power to change your circumstances. Or does the extraordinary effort that would require frighten you?

Well, what are some tangible things you could to to lower the threshold for doing things? What are some things you could to to reducce the anxiety you're getting from the things you have to do?

If you find yourself rotting after work, you stop allowing yourself to go home. Build a system to go the gym first, for example. Don't "just eat quick" because that turns into hours of rotting. Etc.

Go job searching for a few more years first, then this feel good bullshit will have been surgically removed from you.
