I unironically did and then all the Covid stuff happened and fricked my industry six ways to Sunday and now I'm struggling to work my way back to where I was.
Covid really fricked everything up
lol, i finished my degree just in time to get laid off by covid
I now cope by doing art school instead, maybe I'll have a livelyhood when i'm 40
I'm in my mid 30's now and still don't have my shit together. I'm miserable. Don't be like me.
Same. But I'm working on it. I've got a decent job just working on saving money to get a house. We can do it anaon. wagmi
>return to retail
Don't. I'm serious. My life was miserable when I worked retail. Find a job that you'll mostly enjoy that has good people to work with. I do b***hwork in a hospital. but it pays well, I'll always have it, and I love mindless menial labor and my coworkers are awesome. I haven't been happier at work ever.
Good advice anon, i'll take mindlessly stocking warehouse shelves and throwing luggage into planes any day over retail, or any other job that requires customer interaction
Define having your shit together?
39 and still no!
I'm in my early 20s and already have a suicide plan ready. I'll go with a boom.
Only the strong survive in this world, anon.
Godspeed.
If you don't, then you'll end up like us
>laugh at andy's dilemma in that scene years ago
>24 now and still haven't graduated college
Is it over for me?
Wait until your late 20's, you'll have the curse known as perspective by then to better asess things
>Is it over for me?
yes because you live in a completely different world now
it's over for all of us
I chose a good time to stay poor by pursuing nothing lol. just wanting to hit rock bottom to be scrapped off the front of train.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, no. I'm pushing Jesus' age and I'm only just now getting around to figuring my shit out. Spent my 20's lost in a whirlwind of insecurities and self-hatred that I'm only now managing to claw my way out of. And more to the point, don't beleive ANYONE who ever says they have everything all figured out, because it's empirically impossible. Life is a process, not a result
nope lol
29 year old neet. I had a crappy job for 9 years before the store where I worked shutdown. Too depressed to return to retail.
I’m nearly to the point of suicide so that takes care of most worries
>struggle through work and figuring my shit out until my mid 20's
>covid delays everything
>now doing a degree and every 22 year old classmate is just starting to feel a little bit too much detached from me
I'll enjoy this, and i'll certainly enjoy the unapologetic boomerdom i can adapt when i graduate
I did but then my life became unraveled and I've been a shut-in ever since
That episode was more soul-crushing than anything from bojack redditman, even though it had a happy ending. Andy wouldn't have succeeded without his friend rejecting hundreds of applicants in order to hire him."You'll never get footing without nepotism" is too blackpilled of a message.taxt0t
Don't mind the captcha I accidentally typed into the reply box.
YOU LITTLE b***h
I know why you're doing this, you want to make morons insecure because it gives you some satisfaction and/or your projecting your bullshit on others.
Let's make something clear: YOU NEVER HAVE YOUR SHIT TOGETHER.
>get laid
great, now you have a ton of conflicting feelings and realize you want love
>find love
great, now you feel inadequate you don't have as much money as you should or whatever
>get a good job and house
bills to pay, dealing with shit bosses and shit coworkers
>have kids
Do you think that's fricking EASY?? You'll worry about them for the rest of your life
>get money
It's never enough and it alone won't make you happy
STOP COMPARING yourself to others or where you think you should be. Appreciate you aren't starving, homeless, in a warzone etc. Everyone gets to where they're going differently and EVERY SECOND that ticks by you're closer to death. If you spend life worrying about where you are and whether or not you've "made it" you will waste it all away.
You NEVER make it, life isn't a movie. There's no end credits, there is no catharsis, there's just another day, another week, another month etc. GOD it's so infuriating to see you frickers do this to yourselves cuz I did it for a long time too.
STOP IT!
Anon, get your shit together. Gather it all up, pick it up off the floor, and get it together. Put it in a box or something, just get it all together
Tell that to my family
to be fair society as a whole has been pushed and brainwashed into thinking that you need this checklist of success to be happy in life drilled into our brains since birth when ultimately a lot of where you end up in life boils down to luck and circumstance. sure the good looking dude born into a rich family could frick up and become a loser and get disowned, that's on him. he was still better equipped out of the gate for an easier and less grueling path to "success" over the ugly guy born into a middle class family. alternatively the middle class guy is better off than the baby born with aids. ultimately though it all relative like you said.
/thread
Only incels think that relationship and kids are anything but trouble
This.
"Be thankful for what you have; you'll end up having more. If you concentrate on what you don't have, you will never, ever have enough.”
alternatively that kind of thinking could lead to a life of mediocrity full of regret.
Take your meds
NPC response.
If you aren't beautiful, smart, talented or lucky all you have left is to be brave. It's a sink or swim situation
>You did have your shit together by your mid 20s, right Cinemaphile?
b***h I'm in my mid 20s right now.
I was a respected upcoming talent in professional services and sales engineering and consulting for conversational AI with sysadmin experience to boot
Then I hit thirty and my mild psoriasis became severe psoriatic arthritis. I can't sit in an office chair for more than an hour, I can't walk more than a few feet without a cane, typing for any extended period of time makes my fingers ache, my meds make me immunocompromised, and I'm on my third year of waiting for the government to assign me a doctor to confirm that I do indeed have boneitis so I can be just really poor instead of completely broke.
There's a bill in congress right now that will increase the amount of money disability getters can save, so if nothing else, a slim chance of hope?
IIRC that's for SSI not SSA/SSDI, I'm fully disabled, but the fact that there's such a low cap on assets to receive benefits for the partially disabled is pretty horrifying
Oh yeah, and I can't fricking stay awake either. The fatigue is so bad that I sleep about 13-16 hours a day and never know when I'll feel well enough to actually do something. Can't have any kind of sysadmin/sysop position if I can't be on call for emergencies.
If anyone reading this has psoriasis, especially scalp psoriasis or bellybutton psoriasis or groin psoriasis or nail psoriasis (pitting, looks like someone dented your nails with a pencil), try to be very aware of any persistent aches or pains or swelling. Getting on steroids or DMARDs or biologics will dramatically halt progression but can't fix damage that's already been done. It's worth the money to have a rheumatologist look at your bloodwork.
Cheer up you still have us
I'll still have comics and cartoons as long as uveitis or retinitis doesn't frick up my good eye. The shittiest thing about psoriatic arthritis compared to rheumatic is that basically anything in my body can decide to swell up, it's just that joints are the most common sites.
I'll also still have video games as long as my hands hold out, but my index fingers have already started to rotate outwards from years of holding them on the triggers of a ds4
Don't get autoimmune arthritis
Going blind is my biggest fear but even then there is music and audiobooks
lmao no
I’m 22 and it’s not looking great.
Do you think I'd be here if I did?
Great show though
Just hope my associates degree pays off, but it probably won’t.
Not particularly but who does?
>Approaching 30 wizard status (didnt really care about dating scene and too busy dealing with other stuff. If I find someone great if not fine)
>Full time job. Pay is kinda meh for field but alright. Also comfy and barely requires much
>Living with family. No concern about it as that is just the way we are. Help around the house and spend with sister to get stuff for parents etc
>Not in debt and have a good amount of money saved
>Looking into starting a masters to help aim for higher salaries / more opportunities for when I inevitably job hop
Important thing is your happiness and comfort.
Nearly 30 and still don't.
No, but it's the democrats fault.
lol
of course not
I don't have it yet now that I'm 33
I don't even care about getting married and having kids anymore. I just want a small job with okay pay that will let me have shelter and allow me to pursue my hobbies during my off time and be left alone.
I was an investment banker at that point
Went to tech university at 25 in 2019.
You know the rest of the story.
Hey man, we had late 30's former junkies and 50 year old boomers changing careers in our class, never too late
BULlBULLSHIBULLSHITBULLSHITBULLSHIT
Cope
It's true. The guy who created Dragon Tales? Never picked up a pencil til his 50s.
He had a heart attack and all he could think about was a tombstone reading, "Could Have Been An Artist."
you can't use examples of extreme outliers like they're the norm.
I don't know about dragon tales but there are people in their 30s who go back to college to get a degree, not uncommon
I had a degree and 50k in savings/investments when I hit 26 and was starting to get jealous of the junkies on the commuter train.
people who are this optimistic are sick sons of b***hes. where are the bodies hidden anon.
rrrgh, my senses tell me to be angry at this post, but for once frick the cynicism
Have a "based", anon
Entering my late 20s and I'm just finally starting to get my shit together
>got my degree in spite of a major lack of will and motivation towards the end of it
>moved out of my parents house a year ago
>just got a job offer for a real job instead of this part time job I've been working for a couple of years now
>eating better, very active now
>at least before as of recently took care of a bunch of weird mental things that cast a long shadow over life
Just got to find a way to escape the whole >tfw no gf thing and I think things will be fine. Life is objectively not that bad if you can push through it
20 and still trying to find a job, never worked ever
You got plenty time anon, though don't take time for granted
Mid 30s, two degrees and can't find a job that pays enough to support living on my own again after having to move back in with family after education ended. I apply for work at every opportunity I can find and no dice.
I spent my mid 20s through early 30s in college getting my PhD. Started a research job. Then I became a millionaire trading cryptocurrency in the last few years so I just quit. Now I make video games for fun, thinking of starting a company.
Feels weird to spend so long working towards one path, only to drop it entirely.
Oh what the hell
>29
>Dropped over 200 pounds
>Just got my first real job in years
>Been drawing more
>Opening up to people
>Going to college next year
Nope. I spent most of my 20's using my waifu as an excuse to not kill myself.
I am over that but I am still way too fricked up mentally to really accomplish much of anything.
Working a government job is based cause I get paid decently it gives me time to go out and get pussy and pursue my hobbies.
I turned 25 exactly a month ago. I've tanked my life, period. I've not graduated college yet. I started falling off around the second year and haven't passed anything since then. Every semester I say that I'll turn things around but I never do. I'm too scared to try. And when I do I self-sabotage. I start getting better; losing some weight, getting there on the studying, then I do a 180, start gorging on food, spend my days shitposting and jerking off, saying that "next time I'll do it". I have another exam period starting in ~12 days. I haven't opened my notes in ~2 months. These 2 months I did... nothing. I ate, I jerked off, I slept. At the beginning it was fun. Now it's torture. It's the same exact cycle, over and over. I'm literally trapped in a continuous Hell of my own making. I get older, my hair is falling out, my body aches, and I do... nothing. I don't know exactly what is so wrong with me, but there is something; there's no other explaination.
/r9co/
Thanks hope dog. We're all gonna make it somehow
28 and never had a real job.
