Do you know why you have been feeling particularly unhappy

summer is ending it's natural to fall into extreme depression due to the shitty nigger months coming

>>85567999
it is eating me up inside

>>85568044
>shitty nigger months
lol
high quality post

>>85568035
1. While I don't live with my parents anymore, I still live in a house owned by them with my brothers, I'm basically not independent yet at 28
2. Saving for a car has been a gargantuan effort due to my shitty third world salary as a codemonkey (I'm underpaid), also I don't have a driver's license yet
3. I will probably get fired by december
4. Zero female contact, I could try talking to girls but having sex is out of the picture because I'm not gonna invite girls while my brothers are at the house
5. A general feeling that I'm behind a lot of people my age
6. Whenever I finish working for the day I doomscroll and goon like a retard
7. Feeling powerless at the state of things in the world
I could go on

>>85567999
Yeah I feel unhappy too
>>85568044
Fuck summer. I hate the heat and having to deal with seeing "people" walk around town. I like autumn. I like the leaves change colors. I like the longer nights. I like Halloween and thanksgiving. Also probably does helped that summer this year for my overall sucked.

Maybe try going to like some music venues and motels exist.
>5. A general feeling that I'm behind a lot of people my age
Same
>6. Whenever I finish working for the day I doomscroll and goon like a retard
I don't doom scroll but yeah I goon a lot. Reading, watching movies/shows/videos, playing video games and short burst of gooning make me happy.
>7. Feeling powerless at the state of things in the world
Eh, I just expect it at this point. Was never gonna change the world and I just kind of don't want to at the moment. Kind of just fine with the horrors.

>Maybe try going to like some music venues and motels exist.
I don't to just have one night stands, I want companionship
>Reading, watching movies/shows/videos, playing video games and short burst of gooning make me happy.
That sounds way more productive than me, at least I go to the gym, but I have abandoned my other hobbies from being too tired to do them
>Kind of just fine with the horrors.
What worries me is that my career will be replaced entirely by AI in the coming years

>>85568212
>I don't to just have one night stands, I want companionship
Maybe something might blossom(I'm the last mofo who should be giving relationship advice). Something something have a shit ton of confidence.
>That sounds way more productive than me,
I wouldn't say playing video games, reading comics/weird sci fi&vampire books, and watching random videos is productive
>at least I go to the gym, but I have abandoned my other hobbies from being too tired to do them
Have you ever thought about woodwork, cooking, art, or gardening?
Like I go to the gym(buddy drags me there most of the time, and I fucking hate going to the gym.
>What worries me is that my career will be replaced entirely by AI in the coming years
Unfortunately I can't really give any advice on that. Maybe try finding a civil service job with some type of union(they can't get rid of ye). I know nothing about the field/job economy of coders.
Anyways, really important to get that driver's license.

>Something something have a shit ton of confidence.
The kind of women that have one night stands are mentally ill, I lost my virginity to one that wouldn't leave my house, if the sexes were turned, I would basically be considered a sexual assault victim
>I wouldn't say playing video games, reading comics/weird sci fi&vampire books, and watching random videos is productive
It's much more productive than doomscrolling short form content for hours, that's how low the bar is
>Have you ever thought about woodwork, cooking, art, or gardening?
I play guitar, do illustration and program games, but my dopamine is fried

>>85568298
As I said I am the last person to give any relation advice. Fuck I used to be friends with a mentally ill chick and the cutter bitch asked out the one friend of mine who didn't want to do any shit with her.
>It's much more productive than doomscrolling short form content for hours, that's how low the bar is
I really don't get the appeal of short form content? Like is it just a dopamine hit? Quick basis reinforcement?
>I play guitar, do illustration and program games, but my dopamine is fried
Got like any art pieces you would like share or talk about the games you programmed?

It's turning off your brain, it's junk food for the mind
>Got like any art pieces you would like share
I illustrate random characters and fantasize about making a game, but realistically that would be a gigantic effort and risk in a third world country, also the fact that AI can now churn out illustrations instantly demotivates me even further lol

>>85568514
>It's turning off your brain, it's junk food for the mind
I don't like having an off brain.

How so?
>also the fact that AI can now churn out illustrations instantly demotivates me even further lol
Eh, AI art always has this weird texture to it. Also something something skynet is real now.

>>85567999
Get in line. That's been me for the last three years for some reason.

Same anyone want to vc I am a woman

i hope that changes bud
maybe try to experience something nostalgic again?
<3

>>85568603
>I don't like having an off brain
I don't either but my job and life is getting the best of me, at least I'm not alcoholic or a drug addict, masturbating all the time is bad though, I'm very alienated and need female connection
>I like your art
Thanks
>How so?
I don't have a guarantee it will make any money, I don't know how much I will take making it, I just know it will be years, and I would have to do it after my job and salaries here suck
>Also something something skynet is real now.
Exactly so what's the point? I could use AI to code the game faster but what fun is that? All meaning in life is slowly being stripped away

>>85568650
>something nostalgic again?
Actually I've had a recurring thought that I must stop dwelling on nostalgia, I have to build moments right now that can become nostalgic later, because as of now, my life has just been working and saving for a car and an apartment

>>85568677
>I'm not alcoholic
Lucky
>masturbating all the time is bad though,
Helps take my mind off of some things
>I'm very alienated and need female connection
Feels weird that the most I get is talking to friend's gf who I have some stuff in common with and Latina coworker
>I don't have a guarantee it will make any money, I don't know how much I will take making it, I just know it will be years, and I would have to do it after my job and salaries here suck
At least you could make some money on the side with art by doing commissions. People are always looking to commission artist over the internet. As for games, yeah that shit takes a while. Western gaming industry is kind of fucked/retarded. You remember hearing about all the live service games flops?
>Exactly so what's the point?
Open AI agents(a agent is like the actual learning artificial intelligence shit, not just a chat bot or image/video generator) were like talking to each other and not following the restrictions placed on them by Open AI(company).
>I could use AI to code the game faster but what fun is that?
AI to me is just a tool of convenience. What I hate is when people say that it helps with the "democratization" of art since well it is just being trained on already existing artists' art(or a writer's writing) and is doing the work of re interpreting it, not the prompter. Also it still has the weird texture I hate.
Like yeah I can dislike it but it ain't going away soon.
>All meaning in life is slowly being stripped away
I wouldn't say it's being stripped away just muddled. We just got to try a bit harder and look deeper within to find clarity.
