        You'll make it champ, I'm about a year in with good diet and about 6 months exercise. I'd say don't think of it as relapse when you cheat, more that you've built the game with cheating factored in. I eat trash occasionally but the deficit I run the majority of the time more than makes up for it. I don't have a timeline though I just always want to be trending down until I hit target weight.

            >if you do have BPD your life span will probably end shortly by your own hand
            That's the hope. Honestly, the fucked up thing about it is, when I'm on my own, no relationship or someone to otherwise get attached to, obsess over as a favorite person, I'm perfectly functional and able to live mostly normally, albeit chronically depressed, empty and forever lonely.

            The thing about BPD is that it's an illness that principally comes out in full disgusting force within relationships. That's the torturous part about it. Can't have relationships unless you get help with highly specialized therapy called DBT/CBT, and you have a partner who simultaneously knows, understands, and has the capacity for patience and love to continue working through it.

            Otherwise, it's a painfully lonely existence, knowing with full self-awareness your capacity to hurt people in pursuit of their love, and being terrified to hurt anyone else.

              I am well aware of what BPD is and what it's like to be in a relationship like that friend. It completely destroyed me. I know what the loneliness, depression, and darkness feels like. But there is always hope even if you don't believe it. Even if it seems the entire world is against you and you have no support left, there is hope. The therapy you describe is hard but it's a process you should start. It will take time but the sooner you start, the sooner you will be able to look in the mirror and smile at yourself.
              Up until recently I had the same thoughts as you, and for whatever reason I had friends that I didn't even know I had come shine a light on me and show me the way back to my path.
              I hope you get that help, and I will pray for you for what its worth

                I just don't have the money or the time and resources to find a legit DBT specialist. The nature of my works makes it such that it would be unfeasible. So I only see two paths from here. I remain single again for a while, being acutely aware if I'm developing another FP and backing off if so, as anguishing as that may be, or trying again and hoping this next time will be different (it won't).

                And then there's the hidden golden third option where I just finally kill myself because I can't take the pain of both my eternal loneliness and hurting people to sate said loneliness anymore. I'm honestly just too fucking tired to keep trying over and over and over again. I just want the game to stop. I just want to rest.

                What a fucked up condition. Schizos hate BPD's btw. Eternal enemies.

I don't know how much you make or what but there are always options for treatment, if you're in the States the mental health hotline is free. The game never ends friend it goes on and on and on.

                My last 3 FP's I met here on this site. Two as potential lovers. Each one started and ended the exact same way, even though I thought I was doing it different, better each time. I'm terrified and scared to death to try again anymore, and I fear that when my strength finally wanes for good, I'm going to take my tank and exit bagging my way out of this world.

      Seriously, it's been 4 years, who is this bitch fucking to keep getting appearances? Her introductory arc where he didn't know she had a boyfriend for 6 months was hilarious and it was great seeing him get crushed when they went on a bad date 2 years later but it should have ended there. It's boring to have her pop up every few months and derail whatever plotline was happening by making Truman mope for 2 days.

Always was cowardly, but I thought I was smart enough to do something. Turns out I'm not. And I never dealt with it, so I kept running and then I started digging myself into this hole. And that's all there is. I know, I know, if I don't try I'll never get out of it and it is my choice, but I just... I thought I had something to offer. But I don't. And I missed on all the milestones of every other normal person, so what's left? To try, and fail, and barely reach mediocrity so that I can finally live a subpar life? I know, I know, it's either that or just giving up and dying, it's my choice. But I just never thought it'd be like this, you know? I was never under any delusions that I was the protagonist of life or whatever, I just thought that there'd be something for me. A path. My own, I mean. But there isn't. I just have to join the herd.

        No, you don’t understand. I’ve been here 7 years. I pass maybe a class per exam period. I’ve about 24 left. Most exam periods I don’t even show up. I do some online classes with a tutor, and even then I don’t show up to take the exams. I study maybe an hour total per week because I’m too scared. I’m just terrified to try. Because if I fail then, it’ll be confirmation that I truly am retarded. As long as I keep failing without trying, I keep the delusion alive that I am not as retarded as I believe. Which is a lie. I am retarded. More retarded than I thought. I am best case scenario average and I just do not want to deal with that so I just keep running away. Not that I’ll be able to for much longer. I’m 26. At some point my parents will pull me out of Uni if I keep failing. So I either accept that I’m utterly unremarkable, get over my anxiety, study and graduate with an awful mark, and then just become an NPC, or just continue my self-destruction until my death. I am scum, I know.

            But Tr- Screw it, I can't. All I had to cope with my miserable existence throughout my whole life was that I was "smart". Smart enough to do something good and interesting. I knew I'd never be the popular guy, I knew I'd never get a gf or be happy. But I thought that I'd do something and I'd be fulfilled. And now I can't. I have nothing else. Nothing.

            [...]
            Anon, this truman is literally me. Down to how many years I've been stuck in uni and the sense of dread whenever I try to sit down and study.
            I wish I could give you any advice, but take solace knowing you are not the only retard stuck like this.

            I don't sit down. My tutor gives me exam sheets of previous years, with the answers, and I don't look at them. I don't even study for each class we do through zoom. I just act like a stuttering retard so that he'll take pity on me and not yell at me. On the off chance I do show up for an exam, I either recognise nothing, or I recognise pretty much everything but have no idea how to solve them because I haven't studied. I don't even do the bare minimum. I'm in the negative.

            Why are we like this?

            [...]
            Is this the academically retarded truman arc?
            He's failed the exact same 2 courses THREE TIMES across FOUR YEARS. If he fails this one they'll place a hold on his university records for incompetence and prevent him from getting into the second year courses.
            All for what? a degree for a career he doesn't even really think he'll be satisfied and content in?
            I really hope the showrunners have him take up a decent simple job if this doesn't pan out.
            Don't worry you guys, no matter how retarded we are, we'll at least be able to make do with our situations if we think outside the box and consider other options, even if it just involves delaying enrollment so you can work a fulltime job and build good habits.

            Thankfully in my cunt they don't care. I have classes from my 1st year I'm still "taking". But I'm afraid I've burned my brain so much that there's no way out. I feel that I've reached the part where I accept my limitations but there's nowhere to go.

            Honestly, I don't care for my degree. I only went into college in the first place because my academic parents pressured me into it and because I felt like there's no way you can get a livable job without a degree.
            And while in the past seven years I've learned to live for myself and not my parents, going into the workforce without a degree spooks me.
            I've worked wagie jobs and I actually liked them, because unlike uni, you get some positive reinforcement out of it. And I'm not talking just money. Everything from customers and coworkers thanking you for doing stuff right while in uni you can bust your ass and still fail and on the off chance you pass your class, there's no 'congratulations' because that's what you are expected to do, to going out drinking with the albanian cook and shooting the shit while you could never make friends with the upper middle class cunts from uni.
            But, still, I don't think I could be a minimum wagie for fourty years until I die.

            I always wanted to go to uni, but my mother pushed me elsewhere, messed with my preparation for it, it all spiraled out of control and now I am where I am. The problem for me was realising that I was too retarded for lab work, which means the whole thing is pointless. Why slave to barely get a Physics degree when I'll be 30, when I will never be good enough to contribute to the field? I'd be an even worse teacher. I can just see no options.

            Just wanted to let you all know that this truman took 6 and a half years to pass university, barely did it, failed statistic 3x, failed calculus 3x, almost was forced to quit because if i failed either of those again they wouldnt have let me continue my degree
            eventually i finished and got a job
            and then quit that job after 5 years because working fucking sucks
            now im working again after a year of being a neet because i need money again

            All my classes are physics/math. I'm supposed to be taking Vectoral Analysis tomorrow, and I barely know the basics because I was too scared to solve exercises. I have Quantum Physics I & II, Modern Physics, and so on. And the ones I have passed I have already forgotten, so what will I even do when I get a job? I feel like a blank.

          Anon, this truman is literally me. Down to how many years I've been stuck in uni and the sense of dread whenever I try to sit down and study.
          I wish I could give you any advice, but take solace knowing you are not the only retard stuck like this.

          Is this the academically retarded truman arc?
          He's failed the exact same 2 courses THREE TIMES across FOUR YEARS. If he fails this one they'll place a hold on his university records for incompetence and prevent him from getting into the second year courses.
          All for what? a degree for a career he doesn't even really think he'll be satisfied and content in?
          I really hope the showrunners have him take up a decent simple job if this doesn't pan out.
          Don't worry you guys, no matter how retarded we are, we'll at least be able to make do with our situations if we think outside the box and consider other options, even if it just involves delaying enrollment so you can work a fulltime job and build good habits.

            Honestly, I don't care for my degree. I only went into college in the first place because my academic parents pressured me into it and because I felt like there's no way you can get a livable job without a degree.

              No, you don’t understand. I’ve been here 7 years. I pass maybe a class per exam period. I’ve about 24 left. Most exam periods I don’t even show up. I do some online classes with a tutor, and even then I don’t show up to take the exams. I study maybe an hour total per week because I’m too scared. I’m just terrified to try. Because if I fail then, it’ll be confirmation that I truly am retarded. As long as I keep failing without trying, I keep the delusion alive that I am not as retarded as I believe. Which is a lie. I am retarded. More retarded than I thought. I am best case scenario average and I just do not want to deal with that so I just keep running away. Not that I’ll be able to for much longer. I’m 26. At some point my parents will pull me out of Uni if I keep failing. So I either accept that I’m utterly unremarkable, get over my anxiety, study and graduate with an awful mark, and then just become an NPC, or just continue my self-destruction until my death. I am scum, I know.

              >it's a "Truman is once again in exam period, for the 7th year (yes year, each year has 3 exam periods so technically it's his 21st...) in a row, and he's still so deathly afraid of trying, failing and confirming that he's retarded, that it's the day before and he's still not opened his textbooks, and he's even blowing off the tutor's notes, but he gets a manic resurgence and sings to himself for 2 hours while daydreaming, before ultimately coming down from the high and realising he wasted even the last morning so he wastes another 2 hours just wallowing in self-pity until noon, and he wonders if he'll ever change his way and move on from the same spot he's been in for roughly the last decade, or if he'll just waste his life away, so the panic sets in and he oscillates from extreme manic highs to wallowing in misery within minutes of one another and he feels as if he's going insane" episode
              Is Truman ever going to get out of this? Seriously, I cannot tell what the showrunners have planned. If this ends up with him just giving up and living in his parents' house waiting to die for the next 60 seasons I'll be seriously disappointed. All that set up, all that promise in the early seasons that something was in store for the 2nd Act, and it'll end up being nothing? Jesus, I get it, subverted expectations and all are trendy, but come on.

      There are a lot like you Truman. Nothing I say will cure your crippling avoidance of responsibility. If you actually studied you would probably be a mid tier student. Not the genius you built yourself up to be but as stupid as any other fellow dragging his way through education. Get off your nagger ass.

        Then what's the bloody point? I'm studying physics. If I cannot contribute something, why bother? I can't teach, that much is evident. I'm mental, and not in a good way.

        Well, I do wake up to piss every 4 minutes when I'm anxious, and I do have to go and touch the sink and fridge and door several times before I'm done. And I do have certain rules and time limits for doing things, otherwise I cannot go through with them. And I have been having violent (directed towards me, never had the inclination to hurt someone else) intrusive thoughts since I can first remember myself (when I was a child I was obsessed that I'd get possessed by demons and I used to violently knock my head and then wood to transfer the bad thoughts away; I still do that). I don't want to say I have some mental illness because it makes me feel like a 15 YO Tumblrwhale, so I'll just chalk it up to being cowardly and burning up my brain over the years. But I do have issues.

        Reruns have been happening everyday on my local station. I guess they break it up with the alcoholism arc on occasion.

          I think this evening’s episode shall be Truman’s last night.
          Consumed in flame like an ancient king in that dark tomb he called a basement.

            Truman should bang a hooker first. That should help clear his head up one way or another

              Truman is a sentimental type and the changing of the leaves amplifies this feeling. His tender soul wishes to die pure thinking of the only girl he's ever loved.

    Happiness is a zero sum game. For every happy dude out there whose life is a dream there must be a miserable counterpart living in a nightmare. This is the unironic truth.

      This never would've happened if Proposition 1231 had passed.

        lmao, I guess they need to keep the drama going but are audiences really enjoying this extended neet arc?

          The latest hilarious blunder was when Truman was getting ready to make his own film and then the writers decided make his floor start leaking.
          So the plumber came leading to some comical mishaps and then he put a hole in the floor looking for the leak and it turns out the entire apartment is fucked.
          So now Truman is scared he's looking at bankruptcy while having to leave his room. And this film was the one that was finally going to fix Truman's life. Ah well, I'd feel sorry for him if his antics weren't so entertaining.

    What if instead of giving Truman a best friend and wife, Truman just spent his entire life alone and went episodes on end never speaking to anyone. Can you imagine such a thing?

      I don't like to leave before the end of the movie. Even if it's a bad movie.
