Recently quit coffee (2months) and things are about the same really
I sleep better and dream more, that's good I guess
no but I raw-dogged op’s mom
>gottem
gross.
yeah. the only downside is all my friends want to do is go out and drink and smoke. makes socialising lame. I guess I need new friends.
Same. Except my friends won't even go out to drink. They just want to smoke and drink at their house.
bar drinking is for people looking for pussy.
why go to a place prone to violence and over priced drinks when we can sit on my porch and use the hot tub if you really want for free......oh and if you drink to much sleep on my couch friend.....frick bars
yeah home drinking with friends is the money saving way to maintain a social life with existing friends.

sucks for singles looking to chase tail but you strike out most of the time anyway
Nah, just be the sober friend. Everyone loves a sober friend that can be designated driver and handle situations with a clear head. If you’re light-hearted and fun, and don’t have a “muh friends are moronic for drinking and smoking” downer attitude, you can have fun going out with them too. But if they have no true hobbies or pastimes outside of taking substances, then yeah, get new friends.
This advice would work if they just drank, but you don't know weed smokers man. They're a downer, they're lazy and don't wanna do shit, half the time one of them has some psychotic break that the others have to coach them through.
Shit man, it's boring at best
You only need Jesus. The rest will fall into place

Been hitting the gym and dieting hard the past two years. Still miserable, but am happy I'm making changes to my body.
I feel like I'm genuinely allergic to fun. I just want to work and sleep. I wish society would get these drugs and tiddies out of my face.
I envy you. I have no idea how people are okay working 40+hours a week. Even working jobs I like isn't rewarding. I hate that I have to work to live. Seems like a waste of a life. I wish being around people made me feel something, but I haven't enjoyed spending time with friends in years. I just do it because I know it's healthy for me to socialize.
I just learned how to embrace the suck. Is work fun? No. But is it more rewarding than laying in bed at home? Yes.
That's not what the suck is you fricking poser.
Give me the suc c c
It's a good saying, applicable to anything that sucks but must be done. You 10-IQ zogbots who unsuccessfully died for Israel don't own it.
homies be like “embrace the suck” when their stomach growls at 10:50 and they need to focus on their spreadsheet for another hour so bossman will allow them to step outside their air conditioned office
the drugs are easy to avoid. I need these women to cover up though. Thinking about becoming a muslim. Girls are just running around flashing ass and breasts in your face all the time. If I was to get one it would be a waste of time. The old rules were there for a reason and the counterculture in the 60s thinking they cracked the code and could break them was just hubris.
>I feel like I'm genuinely allergic to fun
Same, idk what it is but these last couple of years I have zero interest in doing anything even if I know objectively that I'll like it. I've turned down free coke, meth and md a couple of times and ciggies more times than I can count, I don't play video games anymore, never even been drunk in my whole life, can't be bothered to go on a vacation or the beach, movies, etc. Whenever there's an opportunity to do something "fun" or enjoyable in my head I'm just thinking like nah it's too much effort and it's gonna frick with my schedule, I gotta get to bed before 10 or I'm not going to have time to work out in the morning.
Maybe I've become an npc because I honestly prefer just waging, lifting and sleeping to literally anything else.
Same, although forcing myself to go hiking usually is worth it. That's probably the only activity I enjoy outside of the home anymore. Used to love going to breweries and bars, barely even drink anymore. Get almost any meal to go if I don't want to cook. I'm just stuck doing nothing. Even listening to podcasts is not fun anymore
>forcing myself to go
That's exactly what it's like lol. I'm visiting my family in September and I'm probably going to catch up with some old friends, do a bunch of acid and md with them, have a whole ass psychedelic revelation about how there's more to life than just waging, and be like yea this is sick I missed you guys I'm so glad I'm here, we should talk more often, yadda yadda, then come home and proceed to lift, work, sleep and repeat for another year.
Feels like the opposite of stoicism
Taxi driver wanted to be a hero I just wanna work and lift and not be bothered by anyone.
That's just stoicism, there's nothing wrong with it.
That's not stoicism
You're depressed. At least go on a vacation, moron. You need a reset
yea I guess but I don't really have a problem with it
Taxi driver
over the past year or so I've really lost interest in listening to music and playing video games
still do it obviously but I noticed I get so much less out of it, particularly listening to new music, I just don't give a shit anymore, and I used to play piano and guitar
frick everything, you're the sane ones, bros
it's the others that are basically animals controlled by their own subconscious and addicted to highs
this, happiness is literally a drug
Same
I have accepted that I'll never quit caffeine. Maybe if I become a NEET for a long period of time.
I don't care what tards on IST say
Caffeine is good for you, improves your daily life, and improves your workouts.
The problem is when you take too much Caffeine or when you take it too late in the day. Don't take it within 8-12 hours of when you are going to sleep and don't take more than 2 cups a day at maximum.
If you need more than 2 to get through the day, you have a problem and need to go off it for 28 days and then start again.
I'm a caffeine fiend, it's either way to much or nothing. the only times it's reasonable is when I'm lying to myself before going right back to 400-600mg a day.
I need to quit again, energy drinks are such a fricking waste of money.
drank caffeine
You've never had soda or tea?
gay
7am, currently having a European breakfast.
>how to make your breath stink with this one easy step
>t.
You know there's thing called brushing your teeth?
If you smoke not only your breath smells (and it's not fixed by brushing) but also your clothes
Quit everything, alcohol, kratom, cigs, going to get on test e in couple weeks cant wait. Juat gonna be hogh on teat and feel 18 again.
How much kratom were you taking? I've quit before after a like 30+ gram per day habit after four years but I'm back on it again. I'm not taking as much but quitting sucked so much ass that I'm not very enthusiastic to do it again
I like the anger. It keeps me going and makes me happy I think.
I feel this way alot. Maybe that is why I scare most people.
I honestly enjoy anger, it feels relaxing almost.
>Anyone else out here just raw dogging reality?
was in jail not prison for 1 year.
im back to drinking and coffee but dont smoke anymore.
but i free based sobriety from being a pill head druggie and pack and a half a day smoker real fast cause i was stupid. I deserved my punishment.....when your ultra clean you still get kookie just do it differently you stay up late you work out to exhaustion you eat to much ect.
to truly be health and sober and clean and health mind I needed the state to force me into a cage.
why were you in jail, anon
not him but I'm guessing a drug charge with some other dumb shit thrown on top, probably doing shit that directly annoyed or fricked with tax payers.
Glad you're doing better anon. Hope you stay well.
I do mushrooms
I don't raw dog reality, I let it straight up prolapse my anus, grow a backbone
Sober people r low iq. Literally look it up, high iq means high chance of getting addicted..
>t. coping druggie loser
These memes were so cringe please dont bring them back. Anon is sorry for what he said.
Yes yes go on druggie boy
>Sober people r low iq
very based, about to do a heroic dose of shrooms this week and the next week its back to 3rd year of engineering degree.
intelligence rocks
It’s called being neurotypical
Meh guess I qualify. I have maybe 2-3 beers in a week it’s Saturday night now and I haven’t drank at all
>caffeine sucks
Wrong. Caffeine borrows energy from the future (You). Literally manage your energy when you NEED it.
Really isn't hard dude. People who live in the mountains do it all the time. Granted their food and water is actually clean and unpolluted and they aren't constantly barraged with western media/culture but still
Caffeine does suck don’t get addicted.
Not getting barraged by western culture and media is a pretty fricking huge advantage
Nobody in the mountains is sober
Yeah. Realizing how rare this approach really is makes me more painfully aware of what npcs are like but I'll get through it. The only issue I really have is meeting women because they seem more likely to be npcs. Some men seem ok with that but I just can't deal with it.
Caffeine and marijuana rule, I do both every time I go to the gym, and then throughout the day.
Living life constantly baby speedballing is the best way to do it.
Weed for the gym is moronic
It effects everyone differently. I feel like it skyrockets my endurance. It can also increase risk of injury so you have to really know what you’re doing.
Are you happy? I am, man
Content and fully aware
Money, status, nothing to me.
'Cause your life is empty and bare
What's my drug of choice?
Well, what have you got?
I don't go broke
And I do it a lot
You can't understand a user's mind
But try with your books and degrees
If you let yourself go and opened your mind
I'll bet you'd be doing like me
And it ain't so bad
isolate himself in his house shoting dope and playing megadrive cause feel shame for have losing his teeth and turned into a skeleton, OD on purpose because of iminent organ failure, alone and is found one week later
Great singer, but a great moronic also
Caffeine sucks? Are you mental?
I can't do without my tasty daily coffee.
Twice a day, with 3-5 1mg nicotine gums and of course, modafinil. I need the edge, baby!
>be me
>take 200mg caffeine right before work
>my stress level, blood pressure, and cortisol go through the roof
>start getting chest pains just from standing up
>100% more irritated at coworkers
>can't sleep 12 hours later because 25% is still in my system
>tired with a headache the next day unless I take another dose
I have hypothyroidism so stims don't hit me that hard, I just take the aforementioned stuff since it gives me the energy I need to get out of bed
You're supposed to feel rested after sleep
lol who the frick feels rested after sleep? I haven't done that in 30 years
>who the frick feels rested after sleep?
People who don't take caffeine lol.
t. 21 year old
>Doesn't know how to greentext
I don't. Sleeping 4 hours or 8 hours feels the same, without my stims I will feel drowsy by midday and I'll become practically comatose by evening. Wasted most of my waking life like this as I didn't respond to meds and no endo talked about options so I started using modafinil and chewing nicotine gums.
I wake up more tired than when I went ti bed
Sleeping is exhausting
Haha, really? I wonder what that feels like.
This is exactly why I quit caffeine. The cycle of dependency fricking sucks.
I do miss that rush of energy I use to get from coffee. But I never get the lows now. It's like a constant medium "meh" level of energy but it's at least consistent, no ups and downs, which honestly I prefer.
Modafinil is a life saver, managed to graduate from my high school with perfect grades and get to a decent collage thanks to it
>quit drinking after 10 year habit
>quit smoking after 14 year habit
>quit caffeine to sleep better
>quit all drugs major and minor
I feel a lot healthier now but i'm also bored as frick. I miss the days I would down 2 or 3 energy drinks, drive down to the bar and get shitfaced, do coke in the bathroom with randoms, then smoke cigs in the parking lot talking about nothing to nobodies.
Eh, whatever, guess i'll live longer this way.
Literally me but I have a family and that's why I quit. If they die or leave me it's back to the bottle.
>live longer
y tho?
Can someone here caffeine free post their physique? It’s impossible for me to go caffeine free. I can get by for work and daily life although it feels like a slog but I just can’t work out hard enough without caffeine. I can do the typical workout most guys do at the gym maybe where they don’t even break a sweat but all out to failure workouts just require caffeine for me
>08:00
>already had 2 coffee
Smoking takes a bit to get used to, probably 10 cigarettes before you actually enjoy it
I used to smoke tobacco, then stopped when I tried to go for a light jog and couldn't last more than 10 seconds

Drink alone at home. Problem solved.
I drink one cup of coffee a day and smoke a little CBD when I have pain but by society standards, I'm a straight edge sober guy now.

Why would I need escape, when my remorse torches my soul every single day? I long for repentance and sculpt myself accordingly. Drives me towards fulfilling my promises and working towards the one I am supposed to be.
Wish I could get a job just moving stones about in a nature environment
>quit alcohol years ago
>never drank caffeine to begin with
>quit sugar 1 month ago
>never started smoking because i hate the taste
The only things i now consume are shrooms, dexamphetamine and weed. However even then i am sober 97% of days because i rarely ever have time to get fricked up. Life is pretty comfy right now though
Caffeine is great when you're really tired. I forget what it was but when you stack caffeine with another nootropic you get zero jitteryness and pure clarity
Alcohol depends on what you drink. If you find a skilled bartender they can make you something that will frick you up but not taste like alcohol at all
Smoking tobacco is for morons. Dude weed is alright, tasted like garbage though
L theanine
>something that will frick you up but not taste like alcohol at all
why would you want this? The burn is the best part.
Theobromine takes the jitters out of coffee for me. I can't comfortably drink straight coffee, it has to be a mocha or not more than a sip or two.
>Dude weed is alright, tasted like garbage though
Good weed when vaped tastes amazing.
>smoking tobacco is for morons
you've never puffed a pipe on your porch swing while reading an old book, and it shows.
Caffeine is my only vice. There's literally no downside to it. Stay away from energy drinks because they're sugary filth but I drink tea and coffee all day until bedtime. When the caffeine wears off I'm out like a light. The idea that you should stop drinking 6 hours before bed because caffeine has a half-life of 6 hours is bullshit. The psychostimulating properties are much shorter-lasting than that, especially if you have built up a tolerance. Damn it feels good to be caffeinated all the time.
caffeine has no downside unless you drink it really late. it doesnt cause dehydration, the bloodpressure bs only happens in people who dont drink it regularly.
your body adapts to the consumption
Yeah all the really old people I know drink their daily coffee or even múltiple coffees,cant be that bad
It will frick up your adrenal glands eventually, sadly.
>The idea that you should stop drinking 6 hours before bed because caffeine has a half-life of 6 hours is bullshit
Most people I've talked to and my own anecdotal experience disagrees with this. Otherwise love Caffeine
I can have a coffee and then have an afternoon nap half an hour afterwards on the weekend.
I take way too much coffee, if only I had the strength to get my life together I'd finally get rid og it and be truly straight edge
I literally don't need anything except Islam. Mentally weak and unstable lefties stay seething.

You're the only one with identity politics constantly living in your head rent free.
You are clearly not enlightened or mentally sound.

>had another dream where I was smoking cigarettes last night
It's been 5 months, I don't even think about smoking anymore, but probably once every other week I get a dream like this and it makes me want a cigarette really bad for a few hours after I wake up

Why are americans severely mentally ill drug addicts
Our doctors try and push it on us non stop. I have been dealing with some pretty bad jaw pain for a few months, haven't taken any medication of any form besides an anti biotic for an infection in about 14 years. First thing the doc does is try to put me on an anti depressant and send me on my way. Turns out its either TMJ or a saliva stone when I went to another doc in a private practice that actually gives a shit about people. Find out this week what it is for sure.
I took an ssri and it got rid of a tight knot in my shoulder that I had for months and hand numbing and tingling. I took it because I thought I was depressed. That side effect was great and I didn't have any other nor any changes in mood so I stopped.
You realize how stupid that sounds right?
I learned as a little kid my inhaler could get me to feel funny if I did a few at once, then around 9/10 I was given prescription meth because I'd rather ride bikes or skate than be in class. somewhere along the line my mom enabled soda consumption, then coffee.
I was given far to many opiates once and loved them, luckily I didn't go down that road once I was out.
I want to drive to a super clear area to checkout the true night sky, light pollution sucks
I’m surprised that so many people here on IST can’t “raw dog reality”. I thought that twitter cap would get slated but apparently you agree with it. Interesting considering how much anti-degeneracy posting happens here
Why would you ever be surprised by the fact that they're all dipshit normies larping as exceptions to the rule?
I bet most the people in the tattoo threads have tattoos don’t they
Many of us do "raw-dog" it, but I doubt anyone thinks it's fun. If alcohol wasn't bad for gains I'd probably drink 4 times a week minimum.
I drank 2 beers at a family bbq today for the first time in a year. I don’t even want to drink. I partied a lot in my younger years but you should just improve the aspects of your life that make it difficult to raw dog it. There’s no bonus points for suffering at the end of the game
I don't want to improve. I want to live in the woods alone, lift rocks, eat meat, and play vidya.
Sounds like an improvement
Sounds lonely af. If it's what you want though, I think you can achieve it
Try adding in a meditation practice. Once you get good at it, it will give you a lift and alcohol will be off putting.
damn it feels good to not be a leftist.
You won't get me to quit coffee, frick off.
I despise being high. I used to drink a lot and do a lot of shrooms. I just want lucidity now.
I got a new job 3 years ago and left alcohol and coffee behind and a couple of my friends still try to get me (and a couple other mutuals) to go out to bars and drink or smoke pot
its easy when youre not a delusional liberal
>Caffeine gives me a sense of alertness and enhances everything good in life

>smoking weed makes me sit silently in a corner and have racing thoughts about the catholic church's mission for humanity and the invalidity of the current jesuit pope
yeah I haven't had weed in years now because it's clearly not good for me
>smoking weed makes me sit silently in a corner
Yeah i stopped smoking for the same reason, i just can't function when i smoke.
if you jerk off you're not raw dogging reality
you're basically on high all the time
True. It's too much effort / time and not worth it anyway.
Jerking off has been my only vice ever. Recently had a really good time going just not doing it but what I didn't expect to happen is going back into it to feel alive again because for a while I'd just been doing nothing exciting at all. No videogaming, no jerking, no bad foods (I guess videogames and foods count as vices in some cases) for like a month and I just started to miss everything but dipping back into it, just not the same as it was.
its easy when you dont have health insurance
Why do people assume happiness is normal? It's suffering most of the time that's normal.
I don't know, and it's starting to annoy me. I personally hate fun and I have no friends because everyone else only wants to have fun all the time. And they are always trying to make me have fun. Like I will have a day off from work and they will say
>"OMG Anon how was your day off? Did you have FUNNNNN? >.> 😉 XD"
And I'll say
>"NO, FRICK OFF prostitute!"
I just don't get it. Why is everyone so obsessed with having fun? Every advertisement and movie and TV show and pill pushing doctor is like
>WoW iSn'T tHiS fUnNn? TaKe ThEsE fUn PiLlS hAhA tHaT's So FuNnY! (audience laughs)
I'm so sick of this crap. I just want to not have fun in peace.
That's a lot of words to say nothing
Bitter spastic
>haven't had a drink in maybe 4 years

Fml the best memories i had was getting drunk in school, wish I did drugs too. I miss that so much
We're gonna die anyway might aswell have some fun
>only ever had coffee
Not sure if this is a good or bad thing
if you're avoiding them because you want to, no problem. if you're avoiding them because you think you should or you're scared or whatever, that's a bit of a different problem but it's your life no harm either way.
should try acid at some point though. lifting high is also pretty great, you'll feel where you're keeping muscles tense for no reason pretty quickly.
Take the ketpill
Most of the time. I'll have edibles at night before going to sleep.
I'd love to have a supply of opioids though. Sell them OTC already.
I've been off alcohol and caffeine this month, I occasionally miss having that afternoon cafe con crema in the afternoon but I drink herbal tea instead. Overall energy levels are more stable during the day, and sleep has been great.

if all it takes is some coffee then you're probably on the edge of psychosis lol
hopefully mine doesn't kick in until after i've paid off a house deep in the woods so i can just hermitcore
Yeah, I don't use drugs or therapy shit, not even doctors. Sometimes it sucks, sometimes it's almost unbearable, but then I look at my muscles and I feel a little better
Coffee tastes great and gives a nice buzz but it doesnt really improve your reality significantly. Your life wouldn't be better or worse without it
Don't see how ciggies help you cope with reality in any way, smoking only has downsides (t. Smoked 1.5 pack a day for 10 years)
Alcohol does numb the pain but isn't really that fun
Lots of illicit drugs are super fun but yeah it's just quick n easy escapism. And when you come down reality comes back to bite you in the ass even harder
Unironically try weed
Nah that's boring.
Had a can of pepsi the other night. Made it twice as hard to fall asleep and my sleep quality was pretty much halved. I've seen the light now, going to completely eliminate caffeine from my intake. Going to blast acetylcholine in its stead.
sounds like an incredibly boring life
I can take around 500mg of caffeine a day at this point. I'm trying to cut it down though
>Morning coffee
>Can of reign before workout
>Whatever else I decide to drink later in the day
Went year and half without drinking anything but water, nowadays I drink 1 pot of strong tea (without sugar, milk, etc.) every day. Never have used drugs, smoked, vaped, or drunk alcohol. This combined with the fact that I don't use instragram, facebook, twitter (have an account made with a burner email, but never post, like, or retweet anything, just use it get past twitter's porn block), etc. means that most normalgays consider me a serial killer waiting to happen.
>anything

Really shouldn't be posting just before 3AM.
Hell yeah brother.
Lifting until I want to puke is the only thing that makes it bearable these days.

Ishygddt
I use caffeine and l-tyrosine.
I used to smoke weed but after seeing what my habitual weed user friends do daily I stopped entirely, also it makes me way too lazy and inept.
In high school/college I used a lot of psychs, which messed me up quite a bit. I still get some HPPD to this day, primarily from NBOMe and spice mixing. Shrooms and acid are cool but kind of commitments and I live a much too busy life for doing them at the moment. Maybe when I'm done with building my career up I'll revisit them.
>I still get some HPPD to this day, primarily from NBOMe and spice mixing.
What does this even mean?
HPPD = Hallucinatory Persistent Perception Disorder. Getting hallucinations well after you dropped. Very uncommon.
NBOMe = a class of phenethylamines with LSD like effects but also vasoconstriction effects, faster metabolized but can OD because of vaso
Spice = synthesized cannabinoids, very low concentrations can get you insanely high. Back then you get them in pouches of dried hemp that's been sprayed with God knows what. Doing too much, particularly in carts, can lead to intense psychosis.
I would use dark web chat rooms linked in clearnet forums to obtain psychs, you used to be able to get k2 and spice from corner shops.
meanwhile here I am taking Dexedrine and vaping
Avoid coffee because it does nothing for me. Avoid smoking because it tastes like shit and my throat is weak. Avoid weed because I don't want to be moronic. Only drink alcohol socially, but even then I want to try cutting back on it because I want to keep my liver healthy. Stress socks, but there are other ways to go through life without the use of substances. Finding a fulfilling hobby is one of them.
Bros... 85% of 'Muricans are sleep deprived. 100% of your gains are made during sleep. I'm gonna sleep well tonight, no caffeine.
Its amazing how unhealthy my fellow burgers are and I envy historians in a few millenia who will study the oncoming centuries and see how America collapses from this.
Or even more interestingly, what if the entire world becomes fat? How will war be waged? How will people "protest"?
This is the first time in human history and any living creatures history that we have had this type of calorie surplus, we have entirely conquered the food chain and nature from a consumption standpoint, we found the exploit in the game and it might be our eventual undoing.
I like coffee and have an ocassional joint (few times a year I guess)
22 years old, sober my whole. Wouldn't have it any other way.
21 and also sober my whole life so far and no plans to change it.
My mother is a raging alcoholic and observing her like that just made me hate that shit. Its literal poison people use to forget life instead of trying to fix it, and it isn't cheap either.
Same both my parents are alcoholics and it's sad watching them waste their lives.
Yeah I'm high. High on life, Black person.
Wish I could raw dog it but I'm on antipsychotics...without them my 'reality' becomes warped as frick and I can't function properly
>drink coffee for taste (one shot of espresso to keep the caffeine down, at least 90 minutes after waking to minimize cortisol spike, never later than ~11am)
>never wanted to be drunk, find the feeling of being buzzed very unsettling, and being around drunk people puts me on edge
>never wanted to be high, don't understand it at all
>never had therapy but might have benefited from it
I don't understand normal people or what drives them. I feel like an alien looking in from the outside when my gf drags me to parties and I have to watch them get stupid for fun, and we argue about her (pretty harmless) drinking. I honestly feel most of the time that I'm not meant to be around other people. It's an isolated, melancholy sort of feel.
All I really enjoy is work. All of my hobbies are types of work. Woodworking, working on my motorcycle, lifting, reading to learn, fixing and flipping non-running small engines from estate sales, etc. I don't really want to do any "fun" stuff except watching films and having sex. The rest feels hollow and unsatisfactory.
I'm trying to set up my future. Pretty much all I care about right now beyond my hobbies is figuring out how to make enough money to not need a job. I hate this "working for a living" bullshit. I want to work for fun.

The whole reason I go to sleep at night happy and ever get out of bed in the morning is the knowledge that a steaming cup of coffee from the presso is the first thing I'll experience in the day. After that, things aren't so bad throughout the day.
Quit smoking and cut down on drinking though. There were too many side-effects to both.
Last night I could finally see the stars for the first time in 4 months and I was so stoked the only thing I could think of was “damn it’s good to be alive”
I don’t get how you can view reality as something so excruciating that you have to “rawdog” it when there’s so much wonder around you
>caffeine sucks
You said it, I love the taste of good coffee but the caffeine withdrawal headaches are absolute hell.
Just ain't worth it to ruin an entire good day for a single cuppa joe.
>inb4 hurr just keep drinking it forever
Okay addict
Therapy is the only important thing
I only use weed to make things funnier
If you use weed to escape problems you're a goddammit idiot
therapy is such a pseudoscience, I agree with the weed thing but therapy is just as much a cope. The individual should be able to work out their own problems not pay someone to figure it out for them.
>pseudoscience
even worse
do some research and you realize it is yet another burger trend bullshit perpetuated by social media, especially instagram and women
why do you think this whole therapy bullshit exploded during the last years?
it was depressed roasties on instagram hijacking meme formats to turn their mental disabilities into something funny and their lifestyle into an asset by shaming healthy people into believing they are narcissists, have a traumatized inner child, need self-care
if you don't believe me, look up when most of the recent "we help you find a therapist" bullshit services were founded which are now constantly advertising on instagram
imagine paying someone to have them listen to your neurotic delusions and THEN trying to shame others into doing the same
now even worse, imagine listening to such a person and starting therapy yourself
pathetic
I still remember my most recent c**t of an ex outright demanding that I go to therapy on get on SSRIs like her just because I felt a little shitty here and there, which was mostly because she treated me like shit and stressed me out a lot. Funny enough she switched around between like 4 different meds the entire time I was with her and I tell you as sure as the sun is bright that they did nothing except turn her into a full blown monster when she had forgotten to take them.
Anybody trying to self improve should peruse sobriety before fitness. Your mind > your body.
I'm 11 months sober of drugs, 6 months of caffeine, and now 1.5 months of fapping
