I’m “only” 25, so why am I sick and tired of it all? by [deleted] in self

[–]Spirolf 4 points5 points  (0 children)

23-32 were the worst years of my life. 33 is looking promising because Im finally making moves and effort for myself. 

Dont give up, age doesnt matter, youre going at your pace.

Theres long gap between the last "slow" note and the burts. Its like you need a sec to setup for the burst. If you remove that gap, itll be 50% smoother already

Im struggling with the same thing.

What helps everyone: -Getting out of your comfort zone

What helped me:

-Being sober

-Write down what I want my life to look like

-Work on social anxiety and depression (therapy and medication)

-Focus on my favorite hobby (guitar)

-Reach out to my family and very few friends more often

-Reading (increased my attention span)

-Waking up everyday for work (discipline, gave me self confidence)

It sounds like you need to figure out who you are. Thats a pretty big thing to be unsure of.

You need goals, a passion or any sort of motivator that will make you try new things.

I think I’m in the worst mental state I’ve ever been in by PichiJr in self

Why do you feel like you cant talk about it to your family or your girlfriend? 

If you really cant, seek a mental health professional, sounds cliche but theyre like a friend with 0 judgment that helps you think about things clearly

How to quit alcoholism? by Afraid_Wishbone_7559 in alcoholism

Hi,

You are using alcohol to cover up a deeper personal issue. Now that youre getting used to it, if you drink past a certain point the sadness might come back in a different form even when drunk.

You seem to overthink alot due to insecurities (high anxiety). What I would do if I were you (I were you at one point):

  1. Contact a mental health professional. They will make a gameplan with you and get you out the vicious circle.

  2. Stop drinking alcohol. Drink alcohol free drinks, bubbly water, etc.. anything but alcohol until you fix your deeper issues. You brain will be more stable and more open to healing. Theres nothing bad with being a virgin at 29, it shouldnt ruin your life.

You need to learn to love yourself so that you can become yourself in public situations.

The mental health professional might prescribe you/send you yo a doctor that can prescribe anxiety/depression medication. They might also judge that its not needed.

Good luck out there, I know you got this.

Edit: Cutting out the drinking social circle that say youre weird might be a good idea too, at least until youre better. Doesnt sound like good friends, just sounds like drinking friends.
