They key is stop pretending you can brute force yourself into a successful person when the root causes of your chronic failures haven't been acknowledged and even less adressed.

Seeing a therapist, as much as it would elicit laughter here, might be a good way to confront your issues. Treat it as an investigation into the human condition if you will.

I like this metaphor because it's about the daily process of growth. It's important to have goals like the bloomer, but it's also a trap to get attached to the fantasy of the goal and not work on the means of achieving it. Putting in daily work with less of an attachment to the goal is the way to become a bloomer that doesn't fail.

What should I listen to though? I think I need some outside help, since I don't really know where to begin and the internet was never really helpful, since it's always just "meditation, meditation, exercise, diet, meditation, exercise" all over. I'm physically fit and cook good vegetable based stuff for myself, always walk everywhere and I'm successful at college (even getting awards etc). Still I have trouble getting up most days, social anxiety, very low self image, impostor syndrome, occasional alcohol problems and my discipline is like the fucking wind - I can run 3 miles and then read and work all fucking day while being able to interact with anyone, the next day I cannot write a single sentence and skip lunch because I'm too anxious to go outside and buy groceries.

Two literary paths I'd endorse: Nicomachean Ethics -> Divine Comedy or Spinoza's Ethics -> anything by Goethe, but Wilhelm Meister's Apprenticeship in particular. Both the philosophers were huge influences on the writers, and when you comprehend their outlook through that lens, it produces a huge impulse to strive towards perfection.
One thing I'd say off the bat since we're on this website, is that if you're a misogynist, you gotta let that go, at least to some extent. Goethe can be very helpful with that, since he was the embodiment almost perfectly of what a man should be, and presents women in a wonderfully realistic but appreciative light. If you're a straight man and you're not appreciating feminity for what it is - one of nature's enchanting gifts, you're just on a road of despair. Unless you're gonna be a monk or something, separate from society, if you hate women but constantly desire them that can increase your alienation and despair in a perfectly unresolvable, self-reinforcing way. You can be as much as a misogynist as you want, but if you manage to get out of that rut and simply go on a walk somewhere beautiful with a woman and hold her hand, you'll realize that you don't need to be chad to who gets his dick sucked by a random thot every night to feel some self worth.
The western literary tradition has far more valuable wisdom on life than a forum of friendless incels. They find quotes from the philosophers like Nietzsche or Schopenhauer about women that help them rationalize their hatred, but a good novel or work on ethics will help you see things less narrowly, more appreciatively. Sure, it comes from a different age, so you have to translate its application to modernity yourself. But keeping with the greatest of the tradition will be worth far more to you than any time spent here or in your own doubts.

Learn about yourself. We dismiss our neuroses & anxieties as inevitable, but learn what they're about. Learn to divorce your thoughts from your reality. I guarantee that you're not social anxious due to physical factors, it's your response. It's your thoughts.

Learn to track your thoughts - to understand their pathology. To learn what makes you happy, distracted, scared. Learn that all your thoughts are equally irrelevant. Learn to accept the situation you're in or change it. Your thoughts don't need to be your reality.

Remove the judgment you feel when you've lost your way. You need to ritualize it habitually, which is why people flock to meditation.

Don't try to perfect it, don't beat yourself up for thoughts or judgments - just return. Every time you slip, you return. You don't go, "Oh, I'm a failure, this will never work. See I fucked it up again." You go - oh I was in another recursive thought pattern and I conflated it to reality. These are restrictive delusions, I wonder where my mind will go next.

>> No.12530645

>>12530539
I did, but it never really stuck. Did it for like 14 days, saw no change and let go. I really distrust flashy online articles and trendy advice and meditation was, for me at least, always somehow related to that. Or if it isn't that, it's related to some hinduist/buddhist stuff, which I distrust even more, since I don't really trust the idea that a westerner can just dive into eastern ways of thought without intense and scholarly preparation. However, I practice art (music and painting), which often times had meditative effects for me, much greater than those of direct meditation.

Everybody on earth experiences it at some point in their life. If you can't get over some bullying you deserve to feel like shit and excluded for not meeting the standard for mental stability. Those who do this don't target people who can defend themselves, they target the weak who can't fight back (mainly defend themselves socially but also in all other ways). Thing is for me I'm inherently weak and I can't stop it from showing over time or in the first few seconds of someone meeting me, so others no matter where I end up will always be drawn to me and manipulate me, get pleasure out of it and go out of their way to make sure I fail or suffer because of them.
Its just inevitable. I'm in the UK, wouldn't be any different anywhere else, class doesn't matter either it would be inevitable no matter the refinement of those around me, its just I'm a magnet for abuse. Its wholly my fault you see a) for being inherently submissive and unable to defend myself b) for being unable to socially bond with others to the point where its uncomfortable for them
Probably sounds like delusional victimhood but its the truth, I've been continually reminded of this truth

Yeah, sure.

I started going to yoga practice regularly because I wanted more hip flexibility for rock climbing. At first I was a frustrated because 80% of the poses were for stuff that I felt like I didn't need to stretch. I kept going mostly because I was spending two hours a week in proximity to fit girls.

What I notice now is that I have better control of my mental state. It helps me deal with my autistic father without losing my shit. Conversely, it helps me have credible reactions on stage, because I can also lose my shit in character. The cues for emotions are actually based on breathing, which is what vinyasa flows are all about.

One big thing thing, in terms of my happiness, is the community. Since I have autism it's really cathartic to be able to go to a yoga studio and connect with people through movement.

Meditation is a way of cataloging emotions that allows you to have control over more of your nervous system. The people at my gym, actors, the zen motherfuckers at the top of mountains, all these people share an acute awareness of a) their bodily preconception and b) emphatic connection with the people around them.

It's hard to understand it in terms of neuroscience, so everyone resorts to the gay spiritual shit. Someone in this thread said east vs. western thought, which is a interesting way of looking at it. But there are cubicle workers in China who are also clueless, regardless of how individualistic or not individualistic they are. Do it for two years and you'll have your own explanation of what it means, that may or may not involve Buddha statues & tie dye.

its not everyone else that wants to eat you, its the world system as it is. msot people dont really give a fuck about you and are actually kind of nice. a lot of people aren't but they'll let you know that pretty early for the most part. everyone if given the choice would choose them or you and theres nothing wrong with that.

you can't succumb to the darwin game because you're already in it. this is what those forever adolescents who spend time playing video games and collecting yu gi oh cards or whatever dont understand. and ditto for the people who just work a regular job and get shitfaced at a club during the weekend for their entire lives.

the war is against you, the game is already being played and you are an active participant. you dont get to choose whether to be a part of it or not, you get to choose very little you can only choose how you react to getting punched in the face by it. you can lie down and die like a dog or you can fight back, regardless of the odds with everything and every second you've got.

to add a bit into what this anon said, what has really helped me alot (probably more than anything) is to stop trusting myself.

the whole reason you are where you are is because you're you and you do things that keep you where you are.

in order to change who you are, you must do things and think things in a way that you would not do.

it seems simple but it's alot harder than you think.

i don't elieve in self discipline, like i don't really believe in free will. we aren't all powerful and ultimately we're kind of useless if left on to our own devices.

the way to change this is to not look inside, but actually outside. put yourself in an environment where you will do the work or whatever you need to do because you have taken away the choice from yourself. sort of like burning the ship you came on.

i force myself to attend gatherings by saying yes to everything even when i dont want to. because "I" can't be trusted. In order to become something better, i must do things i cant do, and the only way to do that is to try and to fail, and the only way to try is to put myself in positions where future me will have no option but to try

i rarely spend time at home for this reason. im out the door within an hour of waking up, and take care of my outfit and food the night before so as to minimize time or reaosns i will tell myself for laying in bed longer or taking more time in leaving. the more time spent at home the more time is spent wasted and frankly doing nothing. even if i have nothing to do im usually at a park or coffeeshop or something doing work on a computer or writing things or drawing or reading. because what else am i gonna do out here? might as well.

You remind me of my own view of myself when I was younger and you may be entirely right in your summary. But there's no reason to believe you are inherently weak, and Strength is also the lowest virtue there is. It takes no strength to be honest, humble, brave, kind, true to your own values, etc.

Let go of your pride and vanity, you're no especially pathetic piece of vermin nor are you going to become Alexander the Great over night. Get out of your head and see that the people around you have more in common with you than you think.

And the country is bigger than it seems bro, moving isn't so hard and a change of setting can do your soul some good. Although that's entirely up to you.

What I do is on most days I'll sit in the shower and ask myself "what do I want", "why do I want it", and "what am I feeling right now". I analyze and answer all of these questions then I make a plan of attack for the next day. Once these are done I sit for a few minutes just letting my mind wander.

Being able to sit with yourself for a long period of time, no music, tv or whatever distractions just your thoughts can be hard for some people. Being at peace with yourself though means you become at peace with the world. That's a big difference I've found. Pretty much nothing bothers me anymore.

How is The Fall a fucking Doomer book? It's a book about bad faith and how deceiving yourself can break you as a person. If anything, it should be in the Bloomer section as a warning of what a person can become if they cower behind their ego in a refusal to confront the reality of their situation.

This is a short term solution. Soon you will adjust, and going to a coffee shop or library to get stuff done will lose it's novelty and it will be the exact same as if you were alone in your room doing nothing. You will avoid things you actually need to do, and just keep up the pretension, the illusion, that you are being productive. I know because I followed the advice of not trusting yourself, but turns out I'm even more untrustworthy than I thought. I do not know what's the next step, perhaps religion, supposedly thats why AA is actually effective.

u should accuse people by the hivemind they bring to the table rather than dumb formatting shit. until ~6 months ago there was plenty of unmoderated drug sourcing subreddits that were alright. every time some kiddo got arrested bobsledding xanax over the canadian border there'd be a thread about it. it's all gone downhill now though.

Women with gross feet aren't women, if we're honest. When raised well, women are informed about the powers and social and cultural obligations of keeping their fertility tidy, clean and if possible colorful. In less degrading times, a simple tattoo on an otherwise modest woman's foot would convey a powerful appeal.
