>Time to go to the gym once for an hour then browse the same threads on IST for the rest of the time
same tbh
but with a homegym and a boxing bag
That's grim. Do you even leave the house?
I have literally no friends and no family.
>Do you even leave the house?
Most weekends I don't, don't have any friends either but sometimes my family wants to do stuff, quite rare though.
It is what it is, it could be worse
>my phone addiction is so bad my attention span is dogshit that I haven't watched a single movie in a month
All I can watch is Family Guy clips on YouTube max 2 minutes long
All I do is lift and browse IST mostly
I was watching 1-3 movies a week a few months ago but then my internet addiction took over and now I haven't seen any in ages
ban yourself from youtube shorts, tiktok, any short form content. seriously it improved my life so much and although i use my phone a lot still i'm not just consooming literally the worst, poorest quality, content on the internet. that shit is actually asking for brainrot. sooner you cut it out the better.
You've been hyper-zapped.
It's a post modern phenomenon that is nuking human experience of reality. attention spans shrink and then there's lees complex and quality information being transmitted because of lesser attention spans and then because of less quality communication people gradually lose anything worth saying or talking about.
I like to point out modern political blocs being reduced to fights over sex fetishes (like the homos endorsing communism simply because of the word communal relating to orgies) as part of this, literal idioacracy.
same here
haven't read a book in years
haven't watched a movie in months
reading is just like working out but for your mind.
Since you haven't done it in so long, if you tried to read the good shit right now you wouldn't even be able to understand it. As a occasional book reader, I have to say, books are superior to all other media types, they just require more work to get the juice out of them.
any good books to get back into the habit
I used to be able to read the entire lotr chronicles back when I wasn't bogged
Dune series.
perfect I already own that but never got around to read it.
shutting down IST now
thanks I will unironically buy them now
catch-22 and neuromancer, very entertaining novels, with pretty decent pacing that will keep you engaged.
Neuromancer might be hard to follow if your reading comprehension is low.
>quit drinking and weed
>that’s all anyone wants to do when they are social
>stop being social
>spend all my time working out and watching YouTube on my couch when I’m not working
Pretty much my experience. I went from being degenerate frickup moron that was constantly in the social limelight and surrounded by women and friends and fricking off with something always planned. I got sober and got my act together and now I'm a total fricking hermit and can't stand people.
I dunno sometimes I just wanna go back to being an alcoholic. It was definitely more fun.
Unironically go to a church with lots of young people. You don't even have to be a proper Christian, they just know how to have fun without drinking and are non judgemental
>church with lots of young people
No such thing
I've been to an orthodox church and the only young people there were male sub 5s who are destined to be involuntary celibate monks
Depends the church you're in, some will obviously skew older (cough, cough... Anglicans)
it takes a bit of effort to find, but they are out there. don't be afraid of looking at the more contemporary churches; they look woke from the outside but they are actually pretty reasonable and the members/congregation are often conservative and have their shit together. it takes trial and error though, you will find a lot of churches not suitable for you.
I don't believe in God being benevolent or worthy of worship
>Weekday arrives
>Time to go to the gym once for an hour then browse the same threads on IST for the rest of the time
Every day is the same.
similar to me but I spend a lot of time on youtube as well
Get a fricking hobby or try something new. Don’t be an npc and don’t be afraid of change
Npcs are the ones with hobbies and friends. My loneliness is a conscious act of defiance
>consoooming youtube videos makes me enlightened unlike those normalgays!
I've often wondered about starting my own youtube channel because it seems like every moron is making bank on YouTube these days, but for some reason I just never sit at my laptop and do it
It seems that way because the algorithm suggests you successful channels but for every one there are thousands of failed smaller channels
I've been posting go pros of my hobbies and getting 1-2k views per video but it'd be impossible to turn it into 'making bank'
why don't you have a nice day, homosexual? Spare us your incel blogs
ince site normalBlack person.
Sounds like you need a hobby
>finally get gf
>suddenly not as strong as I used to be in the gym
You incels are so lucky you can call on your vril powers when working out
Oh boy, the weekend again! Time to go to the gym 4 days straight and spend the nights drinking cranberry juice at the bar, watching the live music, and refusing advances from the lonely women there. I’m pumped.
arrives
Yes , sir!
>browse the same threads on IST for the rest of the time
Yes but Im planning to marathon two season show...
This is me except every few weeks my friends come over to my place to play vidya and ping pong. It is good. I also do BJJ twice per week which is always a good way to spend 2 hours of an afternoon that would otherwise be on youtube or IST. Would recommend.
the hermits itt should consider getting into reading.
source?
Read the book Feeling Good by David Burns. It goes over this exact situation and basically how to get over your depression. Someone on here mentioned this book a few days ago, and I've been reading it. Amazing! Basically CBT. Actions lead to feelings. You're going to feel so much better when you get off your couch this weekend.
What I do is pretend to "go out", dress up nicely and leave the house and then literally just aimlessly walk around the town for about 5-6 hours and then go home pretending as if I was out there drinking//having fun or whatever with my "friends". All that just so my parents don't feel sad for me.
Also how I spent the last 6 New Years Eves straight
That’s pretty pathetic but then again my parents just know I’m a pathetic loser and have been since I was a kid so I don’t have to fake anything
same except i should be studying and cant lift because i think im starting to get tendon or nerve issues in my hands and wrists
Not me downing beer after beer pondering where everything went wrong haha.
>weekday arrives
>wake up, wageslave, gym, sleep
>weekend arrives
>if I don’t have my hobby (sports refereeing) to do, I literally don’t leave the house and barley speak to another person for the entire weekend besides gym
>turned 32 last Sunday, no mention of it by anyone because I don’t know anyone and don’t tell anyone anyway
Life is utter misery. Luckily this weekend my hobby will take up my entire weekend, and its only point is to waste time between waking up and sleeping anyway
Feels like a good weekend for an asian massage, tbh.
>basically the only time I leave the house is to go the gym
>I always feel embarrassed because whenever my parents ask where I'm going, the answer is always the gym
I don't know why I feel this way.
Going to the gym is objectively a better, cheaper, and healthier way to spend your time than doing normie stuff like spending $50 on drinks just to feel like shit the next morning, yet I feel like if I was doing that I wouldn't feel so embarassed
