I went to a mall arcade that I didn't know existed. Played some Hatsune Miky rhythm game and one of those dance games for like an hour, before playing a claw machine for a Pochita plushie.
I'm feeling really drowsy, but still will try to do leg day.

>>82921910

Didn't reply to this yesterday in fact because I was trying to defuse a situation with her, but it's calmed now.
I hear you on the you don't owe someone just because they helped you, but I'm trying to figure out a way to at least calm things down so I'm not constantly getting put down and pushed around. Hard time with someone who's nice enough of the time, but horrible the rest.

hi anonymous Toga posterI have mixed feelings about MHA. It's all right, but just never got into much. But liked her character a bit, anything particularly bothering you? I don't think I replied last time you posted, so sorry if you already talked about it.
>ive been trying to distract myself but it keeps failing mroe and more.
Sort of the hard part. Is there anything you're doing that you feel always helps? Or is it everything in general just feels less and less?

mha really isnt that good. i just have an affinity for the toga, since her thing is cutting people and liking blood lol. i guess whats bothering me is that im gonna be 25 in a couple months but i still just get so depressed like this, and have these months long episodes of "nobody understands me" "everyone is so fake" "im so alone" ect and go on and off cutting myself and thinking of suicide. like when i was a teenager it was easy to romanticise at least but its just embarrassing at this point in my life where im supposed to have my shit together. i get like this every so often and have done so for the greater part of 10 years now. sometimes it lasts months sometimes years

hello everyone!

>>82921910
hello cat! hru??
how was your day?

>How are you doing today?
not really bad
but something stupid happened in the morning
so, i was in the class, and decided to say smthn "funny" to the teacher, i thought it'd be a good idea, i saw other people doing it and everything was okay
well that didn't age well, she got mad and started saying bad things to me overall, in front of everyone, i suppose she got it wrong, i suppose she thought i was criticizing her way of teaching
it was kinda embarrassing
and GOD she pissed me off, especially how i had to explain things
and that's it, i'm never saying anything unnecessary to her again, that's what i got when i decided not to isolate myself this week xd

>>82921956
welcome anon!
>struggling, but carrying on
that's the soul!
>im the guy from before who hit 1 year clean recently
oh i remember you! good job mate, good job!

>im really struggling to hold on.
that's really tiring mate
i have a question, put things that distract you aside for a bit, instead, what are the things that make you feel depressed? maybe you could find somewhat of a solution knowing this

>>82922016
officeanon! how are you?
>but still will try to do leg day
leg day after dance games? this gotta be tiring, good luck!

>but it's calmed now
don't worry about not replying, i hope defusing it wasn't that hard

>to figure out a way to at least calm things down so I'm not constantly getting put down and pushed around
i think that's what you gotta do to atleast make things better yet without cutting the relationship, got any ideas for that right now? wanna talk about it?

>Hard time with someone who's nice enough of the time, but horrible the rest.
i feel you, can't just get away from this kind of person easily, i wish you good luck with this problem

maybe miku trained your legs enough ?

just chilling :3
>>
>>82922188
>mha really isnt that good
full agreement there. I literally dropped the anime at the whole traitor part near the end, just couldn't do it anymore
>"nobody understands me" "everyone is so fake" "im so alone"
i think a lot of these to a degree. I know I do at times even if it's not that accurate. Thing is, no one gets any other person completely, but people can get bits and pieces of people. It seems nice, but most relationships are fairly superficial in a lot of ways and you notice it more the harder you focus on people interacting.
>embarrassing at this point in my life where im supposed to have my shit together.
I'm older than you even by a bit and I have moments I feel like I don't have it together still at times too. I've come to question what having it together really means, I don't think most people do, they just don't think of it and drown out the thoughts that cause trouble. You have anything you're proud of about your life right now?
>>
>>82922294
>good job mate, good job!
thank you, i really appreciate that!
>what are the things that make you feel depressed?
by far the things i feel the worst about are the passage of time and the longing for the past and knowing things wont be the same. my life was very rough growing up and i finally broke out of it a few years ago. but ever since then its just kinda felt like "for what?" i have no friends, im socially awkward, and there was no grand celebratory ending for my suffering. i still just awkwardly laze around thinking about old stuff and missing people who hate me or died a while ago. i have no friends or family in my daily life and my interaction since about 18 almost exclusively consists of r9k on and off lol
>>82922303
>sounds like you're getting bored of your usual copes
yeah haha, idk what else to do tho. also hi cat o/
>>82922344
>You have anything you're proud of about your life right now?
mostly just the thing from above. my environment was rough growing up, and i was homeless for a while between age 19-22. also that thing you said about not many people "having it together" did help me calm down a bit, so thank you lol.
>>
>>82922378
>mostly just the thing from above
oops, i meant *escaping fro the situation i was in
>>
>>82922294
hey rm! I'm doing all right thanks! Just taking it slow now
>it was kinda embarrassing
it happens. Don't beat yourself up too hard. I've experience most teachers/educators are fairly uptight and unpleasant to deal with. Not to bad mouth too many people at once, but I don't think most people who's lives are going great teach.
>decided not to isolate myself this week
maybe just don't isolate self from people who aren't teachers
>leg day after dance games?
ah wasn't that strenuous. Though just a little wobbly. I only do leg day once a week, so I have to do it
>got any ideas for that right now? wanna talk about it?
I don't have anything, but I also have time. For now, think I'll just relax and try my best not to worry about it.
>i wish you good luck with this problem
thanks, i need it for sure, but will be all right

>>82922303
>that sounds cool
It was fun lol I like these kinds of games, but don't play them much. Feel like the staff were amused by me playing it lol
>r u sure about it?
ah like i said above, i'm fine. My leg day isn't that intense. I just look for excuses to skip. I need to keep it up since I'm always going to look comically lopsided if I don't.
>just chilling
what I'm up to now. Might play a game in a little bit though.
>>
>>82922378
>passage of time and the longing for the past and knowing things wont be the same
tell me about it. I'm 31. Few years ago, felt like I missed out on too much stuff and just can't make up and do what I want out of life. But am still finding ways to. Even circumstances for you or different, you're not even really old yet. Under 30 is still not a bad place to be, so don't worry.
>i have no friends or family
tough spot to be in. For what it's worth, always welcome to come chat here. Know it's not a good substitute for real world friends, but I consider people here real friends even if it's just online
>homeless for a while between age 19-22.
That sounds painfully hard, especially that young and sorry to hear that. Can't imagine, but another thing to be proud that you made it through that, despite how awful it must be. I say sometimes I went through stuff that probably should have been the death of me or caused me to break and off myself, but never did so that's something
>did help me calm down a bit
And glad to hear! Honestly, we compare ourselves against what's ideal, most people fail.

ill be sure to start chatting here every so often, this is the 2nd or 3rd time ive jumped in. even when i was cutting every day i wasnt on here much. i appreciate the kindness... maybe i will make a trip just for this thread idk yet.
>>
>>82922378
>thank you, i really appreciate that!
o7

>i still just awkwardly laze around thinking about old stuff
i see that's been so rough on you pal, i'm so sorry you faced all of that
but isn't it a bit easier now that the old suffering is over? what are the possibilities of you to get out of your house and have any social connection with anyone? college? work?
having a friend at your case can obviously make things different, so, can you try to overcome your social awkwardness for a few time at least so you can have some kind of actual social connection. loneliness can affect so hard on all of that, even if you break out of everything sad; loneliness could keep things hard on you

i hope you overcome everything bad anon, good luck!

>>82922503
>I'm doing all right thanks! Just taking it slow now
glad to hear that!

>unpleasant to deal with.
yup, really, a lot of them

>but I don't think most people who's lives are going great teach.
this, too. sadly it doesn't seem like any controlling part in the system cares to fix this.

given that this generation is full of social anxious kids and their -almost- only interaction is with teachers that don't seem to show enough sympathy; i believe big figures should be aware of this but i don't know if anyone cares there

>maybe just don't isolate self from people who aren't teachers
yeah maybe, but at the end a lot of people can cause strange feelings to me not only teachers but i'll see what i can/will do

>ah wasn't that strenuous.... so I have to do it
oh well that's nice, enjoy your workout!

>For now, think I'll just relax and try my best not to worry about it.

i was surprised to find it here. Especially with all the anime and nerd stuff to be found in the claw machines. I'm think the demographics of where I live have shifted drastically and I don't really mind at all if it means I get stuff I like.
>I'm sure they're used to it
probably some people, but you have to remember I stand out a lot from my size and also don't dress like vast majority of people who live here. Seeing a giant ass guy who looked like he wondered in from an office doing it's a bit funnier than a normal looking weeb xD
>what game?
persona 5. Just finished up. I got okay into it years ago, then dropped. Honestly, only game I ever finished was 3, but it's easier playing on pc for me

>>82922789
don't need to even cut to post here since most would discourage doing it. But always happy to chat, just let us know it's you since always hard to tell anons apart sometimes which I suppose why most started name posting.

>>82922812
>controlling part in the system cares to fix this.
it's sad because in theory I like the idea of doing it, but it pays so poorly I couldn't justify pursuing a path doing that if I want to live an okay life and have a family one day, so I had to go after what pays better. Most people with options will sacrifice even doing something they enjoy for those options. Maybe some people who teach really do love it, just not sure I ever met one.
> believe big figures should be aware
socially anxious kids can be lucrative if you try to sell them solutions later. People in charge love people being sick enough to exploit. Only need to be healthy enough to milk them dry.
> i'll see what i can/will do
take it a day at time. Best you can do
>enjoy your workout!
thanks! Wasn't bad! But I swear, I can never tell if leg day is doing anything. I increase weight, but can't really notice much difference unlike upper body which is obvious

i am a bit worried cuz i didn't study well but like in the back of my mind i know that i don't need to study more like everything is easy i can deal with it but i can't help with this overthinking :/
dude it sucks, it's eating my brain up, im scared over nothing. i'd like to stay up and finish studying but i barely have 5 hours to sleep, and since i won't be able now to sleep quickly I'll have fewer hours.

>gonna watch stuff on utube

>>82923960
>an okay life and have a family one day
>not sure I ever met one
teaching is so beautiful and teachers should be known differently in socities BUT the way some countries suffer of some problems like the incorrect evaluation for some people is probably what makes teaching job a plan Z :/
which yeah might lead into seeing mentally unstable teachers that produce mentally unstable kids

I heard that teaching in south korea is pretty much better, i heard that teachers there are like famous public figures and their salary is pretty high

>not sure I ever met one
to be honest i think i did meet some, and yeah when you find someone that is actually enjoying teaching you might easily love his class

>people being sick enough to exploit
which is truly disgusting

> incorrect evaluation
unfortunately everything in education today is geared towards making everyone good workers. Education is shit, teachers aren't respected, and we don't care about things that matter as much as how good of worker bee you are.
>I heard that teaching in south korea is pretty much better
east asia in general considers education to be very respectable to a degree deeply ingrained in the culture(Confucianism and all that). Not sure how well this holds up in the traditional sense since know it's very corporate friendly there this day and age. Would be interesting ask one of the koreans I know their thought, a lot of Chinese and Vietnamese I know are still very traditionally minded, just think Korea is a bit less so.
>how long have you been doing leg exercises?
good question.. Not sure now that I think of it. I've been lifting seriously for over 3 years now. But legs weren't focus as much as upper body till I thought I should give more focus. Still only one day a week, as opposed to me working out other parts of my body at least once a day, so really still not as focused with that.

>>82924436
>no need
just feel sorry since know you've been working hard if you don't feel like it sometimes
>>
>>82924457
>why did it shift?
Sort of an awkward question to answer, but a lot of things.. immigration, people moving out of the big city parts, and quite frankly white people moving away. I go out now I'd say minority of people around are white. I feel like white people in America who are more traditional American valued don't really care for Asian stuff so milk tea, anime stuff, etc isn't very popularly in demand and harder to find stores for, but now there's more Asians than I remember in the past and other groups that are more open to it. Can see this very clearly when traveling across the US to more further inland states.
>sounds like you need a disguise
