im afraid every day because i always feel like im wasting my life, but i have no idea how to get the things i actually want. so i just doomscroll this board. a decade spent in one room, nothing changes
>>40967845Where are you?
i am serving my sentence on terf island
>>40967845AnonAll action is motionYou must move your bodySharks, if they stop swimming, water fills their gillsThis might be a misnomerBut for our purposes it's trueJust consider yourself the sharkStart moving your bodyGet paperGet penMove handPen on the paperTo do listStart completing tasksTheir completion simply requires motionEven digital tasks, you move your fingers you move your thumbs When you get like this just be the shark, make a to do list and then just be in motionAt the end of the day you can restYou, unlike the shark can take breaksBut remember, get back into motionYou must override this freeze response, even if it feels like moving through tar, eventually you override itStart completing tasksI'm on terf island too. But I have to keep moving and my life is great, I only know the shark wisdom because it's how I pulled myself from the pit. It's not an instant fix but it sets the wheels in motion, If you have no pen and paper go get someIf you can't afford them. Go get a free paper from a train station or go to the library. Just start moving.
>>40968661if you want to actually start doing stuff with your life you got to start getting out of your comfort zone. it's sounds nerve wracking but once you take those first steps you'll realise how easy they rly were and it inspires you to be even more social / outgoingand we may be on terf island but luckily this place has many different active scenes and communities for one to try outespecially in the cities met some of my closet friends thru local events / venues i looked into
>>40967845Hey same also 10 years here, good luck pal. I had a 6 month stretch where I somehow turned everything around and am now back at rock bottom, so maybe there is eventual hope for us
>>40969531ive literally never seen an event in my life. i dont know how people meet eachother.
>>40969449what tasks? what motion? what do you do?i literally cannot think of anything worth doing, only pointless busywork that points me nowhere
>>40969633That thinking will keep you trapped. Just start with small stuff, then you'll think of bigger stuff. Go get the paper. Get off the computer/phone immediately. Stretch your body
>>40969704And don't report back with any of the ideas. Just go do stuff. Tidy your room. Basic self care. Keep thinking of stuff to do. Take out bins. Eventually. When stuff is nice. You'll think of stuff you want to do instead of stuff you have to do. If there's barriers to those wants. That's more stuff to do
>>40969542well there ya go then.find an event that relates to something you enjoy and meet people with similar interests at said event :)
>>40970049i dont know how to find events, you mean like concerts?
>>40970055Just like things and find some events for them dude it's that easy
