Stress interferes with your gains so it's best to let it all out, what's been troubling you guys and limiting your gains?
mid twenties with nothing to show for my time on the planet and only recently have i fully seen through all the falsities placed on my by others and the comfort bubble i clung to to hide from my suspicions which all turned out to be right anyway
i have no fucking idea where to go from here
>>Stayed in home town to be with girl
Rule number one, never put women as your main priority.
Why dont you do what you want to do?
I do love her but she's way more into it. Her family and friends treated me really well over the years as well, it feels selfish trying to leave
a relationship has to go both ways user, if you're not happy it will only make things worse
I feel like a fraud at work. I went from relief teacher to assistant director of studies (see: deputy principal) in like 6 months. I feel I do very little work but those senior to me keep telling me I'm doing a great job.
My rapid promotion also caused some contention with other teaching staff who have been here longer but, as I never put myself forward for said promotions, that blew over pretty quick.
my psorisis is pissing me off, it is really hindering my confidence. I hate my dermatologist "just soldier on" was his advice. My elbow pain keeps coming back after Jiu Jitsu class
What meds are you taking for it? I absolutely despised mine since it was getting everywhere but I'm trying out some Dutch treatment which is an injection and it is all completely cleared up after two visits. They had me on methotextrate but that was actually very close to fucking up my liver so they had to stop.

I'm taking pills now and planning to go to a therapist, I have a loving family and a circle of close friends. Job is not something I dreamt of but a really good start. And yet I'm still fucking empty, everything feels unreal and each day is just going through the motions. I can feel pleasure, but never satisfaction. What's wrong with me anons, will it get better with time or am I just too pussy to ever live fully
DUDE. At least you have friends and family
Women are a meme gender
That makes it even harder beacuse I know I should be happy and that plenty of people are in shittier situations and are right in the head despite that. I can't take myself seriously anymore because being depressed over being mediocre and purposeless is something I associate with an entitled soyboy or some other kind of manchild
Why do I still have the want to fuck random girls despite having a pretty solid gf for the past year?
Meditate, my nigga. Don't do that Buddhist shit though, find your zen. They were on to something when they were talking about inner balance and shit. Means you need to think of something you like to do that makes you happy and make that a routine. My shit is going to movies on my own but yours will be something different. It's all about zen, friendo.

My dermatologist said it was a 'mild case' Yet one week after my visit, I exploded all over my arms and a few small spots on my face. There was a spot on my hand that is now a scar, i think it was staph.
Im taking Clobetasol. Hard to say its working. Each outbreak lasts for 12 weeks. Applying this shit for that long doesn't sound right

My gf doesn't satisfy me, but she is the only person left in my life. I don't know what to do, have some trap off craigslist that I intend to fuck on the dl and see if I can separate my loneliness from my gf. Also can't bulk cos neetbux don't cover food, so my squat is stalling, with lifting being the only thing I enjoy I don't know what to do...

haven't i technically done him a favor, now he knows shes a hoe, and im not fucking her
>when she refused to let him take her home*
>trying to get her to leave him*
He did his acquaintance a favor. If she didn’t want to leave the guy for him then it would have been another slime ball.
traps are gay, quit watching porn and try and figure out why your gf doesnt satisfy you. pornography can create dissatisfaction in relationships that would be fine without it
The thing is that I am on NoFap, it's just that the emptiness keeps ramping up and I don't know what to do about it. I can't feel pleasure or happiness apart from fleeting moments and it's all getting too much. Traps being gay isn't much of a point either, idgaf

I did. She told me to rest and resume activity in a few weeks.
Been taking a lot of shit at my oilfield job from all angles lately.
Just little things that keep getting brought to my attention after the fact, where my explanation doesn't matter because some other issue is brought up.
I was promoted too early out of desperation from my employer and now I feel like the confidence that everyone had in me has slowly eroded, even though I know how to do my job with high confidence.
I feel like I'm at the point where I've lost a degree of respect from my peers and I'm just seen as some sort of inept fuck up.
Fell for the college meme and now 2 wasted years later I'm taking a year off and dedicating my time tovsavong money and self improvement. On top of the gym I'm getting back into soccer, joining jujitsu class and ģoing out more. Not really sure what I'm gonna do after that. Maybe join military or something.
>giving up on your dreams to be with someone

Leave her, find someone new
HAve you tried collecting Warhammer?
you are doing the best thing you possibly could right now user. You are telling your story so maybe others wont make that horrible mistake
Everyone's told me the same thing :/
When good things happen don't question it
> fell for the fell for the college meme meme
You can't do shit without a degree these days, and the military will teach you how to be homeless. Take a year off to find yourself or some other gay hit but you better be in class next year
biology
I disagree with the other user its pretty hard to find a balance in a relationship, have a girl be way into you is way better than the alternative. It sounds like you went on FB and saw his perfect life, he's probably going through problems too man. Having a nice girl is great man.
What the fuck, minis are cool, I have a bunch on my shelf but they don't make depression go away. Are you serious?
I'm finishing writing my masters thesis
My advisor is a tyrant, is trying to force me into staying over the summer by delaying my thesis publication so she has cheap labor until the next sucker starts in August
I have no free time, which means no lifting time
Stress has probably taken a few years off my life
I fucking HATE writing more than 5 pages at a time, much less a fucking 120
I just want a comfy job at a government lab in the suburbs, that 20% pay cut from Private in exchange for guaranteed no more than 40 hour workweek is so worth
I just want my degree boys I'm ego lifting this work environment :(

I know this is kind of a humblebrag and that it shouldn't bother me, but it does. No one cared about me before they knew. It's not like I couldn't before, nothing changed about me. But they learned one new thing about me and all of a sudden it's like I matter. Don't get me wrong, I like performing and the extra money is nice, I just wish people weren't so shallow and cunty

I'm writing this graphic novel and am currently going through imposter syndrome.
I work 50 hours a week at a shit job
I study on the side because I dropped out of college when I was younger
I still try to lift 4 times a week minimum
Im lonely as fuck
Its been 2 years since my gf of 5 years left me out of the blue. It completely broke me so Im scared to death to get feelings for a girl again
Im just slaving away like crazy in the hopes that my future will be better
Why do you even care? The fact you are this worried about it just proves that you still need to get over her. Just ignore her.
Think about it from their perspective. If someone at work hardly talks to you why would you be friends with them? Now that you are singing they know more about you and your hobbies so they have a way to latch on and be social. If you don't put in the effort why should your coworkers?
Is there an underlying issue in your relationship that's causing these feelings, or is it just a 7 year itch type thing? If it's the latter, could you do it and not get caught? Could you live with yourself afterwards? Could you keep it a one time thing? Frankly, there's worse things in the world than cheating, no matter what /r9k/ says. We're hardwired against monogamy. We're the most monogamous species on the planet and we're objectively awful at it. It might be worth it if it saves the life you the life you two have built together
I did when I was younger, it was fun and I even considered picking it back up but Sigmar's Big Day Out came out in the meantime and it looks shit
I don't really care about being friends with them. I don't hate any of them, there just isn't anyone I "clicked" with either. No one I have much in common with. It's just weird how people treat my different now, especially my boss
you got any friends? bros over hoes

No, that's what is so frustrating. Love my wife, sex is great, no real problems aside from normal couple stuff. Could I get caught, absolutely. If the feelings weren't returned it would also totally end my career. I'm not going to and I'm ok with that, just needed to tell someone.
Have you been tested for food allergies? Or tried an elimination diet? Im doing that right now for 8 weeks after a bad flare up. Also applying apple cider vinegar topically has been helping a bit.

I actually love the substantive part of my work: the research and the competitive side of litigation. But dealing with people in the legal field is soul-draining. People don't talk to lawyers when they're having a good day, and the work hours aren't predictable so my gym buddy just started going on his own.
Have you looked into rotc mang?
Quit porn. You need accountability? Call a friend.
This is why I want to avoid firm life like th plague. Would rather work for big daddy gov

>mfw mood swings are hitting again
Anyone else have to deal with this? I was just fine this morning but on the drive back to school I just got all dumpy, sad and in an overall dark mood. I've started writing down whenever I get this swings and remind myself that it'll pass but sometimes I end up just withdrawing to the feels
Realized that some of my friends from home didn't really like me and just felt bad for me because I tried committing suicide. I'm trying to make my self believe that It doesn't matter but I'm struggling.
Your gf will think you are lower than a worm if you fuck a trap
Are you me?
Yes, you're contracted after your first year taking it if you do well, and once you graduate you go straight in as an officer. I don't mind that too much, but I already have an associates with 60+ credit hours, so I would go in as an E3.
I just worry that if I go in and make a career out of what I do that I won't get back to civilian life until I'm in my 30's, and I don't like to entertain the thought of going back to college in my 30's when I can go straight into the work place with various prospects.
Honestly, I don't believe that the majority of American students have this all planned out as much I'm lead on to believe, like when you see students with job opportunities straight into their first years at Harvard and whatnot.
Broke up with gf of 2 years around 6 months ago. Turned out she had been sleeping with someone for 3 months about 1 year into the relationship then stopped 8 months before I found out. Thought I was gonna start a family with her. Think of how much I hate her everyday and it tears me apart. Fuck. When I broke up with her I told everybody and really made her bleed. Now I’m just empty.
not a kv but never had a gf, am 23
got feelings for this girl in my gym who keeps making eye contact with me and smiling
Eventually start talking to her and invite her to train together but she stood me up
Got her number, she's single but she keeps turning down my advances on her
All this shit is eating me up inside
Just fuck my life
Also can't greentext
Dude I'm 25 and have an associate's as well, if you become an officer depending on what you do when you leave you won't need to go back to college or start from scratch. Get a security clearance and you're golden in the private sector.
Students have no idea what they're doing and all that planning goes down the drain real fast when shit gets tough. If you want to join the military do it. Come up with a goal and stick to it you'll find a way if you really want it .
Time to break out of that bubble, bubble boy.
I'm currently in college by the way so by the time I go active I'll be 29
Don't listen to all the alpha/beta/soyboy horseshit here. It's as much a LARP as the fags in /b/ using 6 year old photo sets to pretend to be a girl. Your feelings are your feelings, if your feelings and your intentions don't match then you're on the right path, you recognize it and you are taking steps to be better. Go see the therapist, if you don't like that one find another one. No one walks in to a gym and is automatically Ronnie Coleman. Mental health gains take time and effort too.

pro:tip she was hoping you were a pedophile, or that you would look enough like one, so that she would get attention.
Work long enough to stabilize financially and then travel to a different continent for longer than just a vacation. You will see what makes like worth living, and also how good you actually have it
shut up gay normie if that's your only problem in life you got it good. everyone looks at others lives and compares it to their own. you friend might even be jealous of you
i really don't think i would have been able to resist the urge to slap her so hard she'd fly across the room at that point, what a sick individual
I've lost motivation to lift. I was in the gym for more than half a year no problem. Even making decent gains. Now I can't even gain the will to leave the house to go work out. I barely leave the house at all. It was one of the few places I went to.
If you have time to pursue trannies on the internet you have time to work more, you lazy faggot.
Hang in there, user
Lmao you deserve it. Have fun with your new reputation after your "friend" finds out. Douches baka
I'll spare you the autistic details but I would like a fat BF.
I myself am quite skinny though and I feel like people into the same thing I am would rather an overweight partner, this is something I am completely unwilling to do. I like being attractive to normal society, keeping up appearances is important for my job and heart disease/back injuries/cancer risk etc.
I would also be a bit ashamed to be with a fat guy publicly / with family and the same health reasons that would make me never ever be fat would horrify me in a partner.
I feel like I'm in a lose/lose situation, like I just wasn't meant to have a stress free happy ending.
Bro keep at it and every day you do your job you get a little better at it. I was in a similar situation but felt so much better when i was able to get a handle on things at my job. And you feel the difference in how people around you feel as well
i dont know why i come to this board. all i do is get angry when i see people with any modicum of social success and get angry when i see how much people obsess over girls and girlfriend and dating and sex and everything else related to women this board obsesses over, and how everyone here is a rich engineer, and all have a ton of friends and are all ripped

that is only a small percentage of it, like less than 5% the main issue is fat gays tend to want fat gays and seeing a partner destroying their life expectancy in front of me would be a problem to me.
Not him but topkek, same happened to me
When we met she was depressed and said she didnt kys because of me. Recently she dumped me after 3 years.
