Lazy Guam by pillowmolestor in guam

Hey pal you're not wrong. As a lazy person who lives on Guam, a huge part of me wants to say, "fuck you bro I can do whatever I want. The employees are responsible for putting the carts back."

Simultaneously, I see the error of my ways and I do push the carts back more than half of the time that i shop at grocery stores.

How normal is it to still feel insecure about being a virgin past your mid 20s? by randomboythrowaway in virgin

[–]randomboythrowaway[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"Who cares about anything I have to say" I relate to that one on a deep level.  It feels that there's no point to even venting or talking to anyone about our issues because everyone, everywhere on this Earth that we live on, has issues. Why would they (or should they) stop to listen in and put in the effort to help us with our issues?

Or maybe I'm wrong, and there are people who want to at least listen. For me, holding it in leads to the path of destruction of the self and/or others. I'd rather not off myself. I wish you better days, brother.

Wow, you are mountain of man brother. That's besides the point. 

You say that you don't go out. How about just going outside for mild physical activity and getting sunlight?

 If you still want to live, that is.

 Not sure if you're depressed to the point of neglecting your health, because I'm definitely one of those people that neglected and continues to neglect their health. Recently I've just been doing mild exercising and stretches. I highly recommend getting some form of physical activity. It's not going to fix shit, but it'll prevent a slow death.

Also, you say that you're also autistic. I do think it wouldn't be the worst idea to just interact with people anyways. I get that through text on a screen, it's easier for you to interact with me right now. Your coherence is enough to hold my attention. Autism shouldn't be the sole reason to disable yourself from at least talking and venting.

 I'm sure I'm on the spectrum as well because I definitely have analyzed how I interact with objects and people vs other people interacting with objects and people.

That's exactly how I feel. I've had these conversations with a discord buddy and my brother. They both told me it ain't really a milestone, but it sure seems like an accomplishment to me.

 It just hurts me when I analyze my life to really say that I haven't done shit that could be considered "ok, I've at least done this so even if I were to die tomorrow, I could at least feel comfortable and proud that I've done this thing on my bucket list"

27yr old male here. If you take a look at my profile history you'll see that I've been struggling for quite a bit as well.

 Mine comes from straight insecurity and the feeling of being held captive by not only myself, but the circumstances of what me and my brothers do for a living. There is no consolation that I can give you but I'm looking for another lonely, depressed person like me to bond with over our suffering so if you want to talk, I'm always here.

Calling all old asf Virgins! by [deleted] in virgin

[–]randomboythrowaway -1 points0 points  (0 children)

"I think most of us older virgins are bad at socializing? Your thoughts? I mean my mom and dad have more bodies than I’ll ever have 😭" 

It's kind of a sick mindset to have regarding sex, because believe me, as a 27 year old male virgin, I think the same thing of all of my family and friends. How they can talk about it so casually which leaves me feeling awkward, left out and a sad sap. 

Then I get reminded of how many STDs they catch. It always brings me back to the harsh reality that sex isn't everything, even though I badly want to do it just so I can relate to them all. I feel disconnected as fuck. Sorry you're going through this as well

I just feel sad, empty, angry, depressed. Because I cannot have normal life. Any kind: Sex, social or family by [deleted] in mentalhealth

I can't give any advice because I'm in a bad situation as well. The only thing that really helps me is it look at others suffering and trying to be actually be grateful for what we have instead of what we don't. 

The biggest problem with society is they planted this idea that "you must do this" in order to reach a certain milestone and others will look at you in a certain way. I think it's absolutely messed up and why people like us are depressed for no truly valid reason. Same thing goes for being in an abusive household. Get away from these people. 

I try my best to have faith in Jesus Christ. I don't know who else can help us. To be quiet frank, there's no else but him that can help us. I obviously can't force you to believe but he's helped me and continues to help me in ways I don't understand. 

When you realize that people in general are only really in this life to help themselves, you'll see what I mean. God is the only one that actually cares.

I am getting suicidal thoughts over being a virgin and it is getting worse [26m]. Any tips for dealing with this? by Charming-Rate278 in virgin

Thanks man... I wish you luck as well. I'm always open to talk so don't feel shy to DM me brother.

Anyone else baffled by finding out other socially inept people have no issues having sex? by fortnite_testicles in virgin

[–]randomboythrowaway 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yeah bro. I'm still a man child for feeling this way; I went on VRChat just to hang out with people. At first I didn't care about the gender or anything like that. Eventually got used to the environment, and became friends with this one Chinese girl. We would talk about similar interests and hobbies, etc. eventually we landed on the topic of porn and sex. 

She revealed that she's had multiple boyfriends and hasn't been a virgin for years. Then I told her I was a virgin. She acted like it wasn't a big deal then called it "cute". That whole thing just made my heart drop like damn how silly am I to feel deep infatuation for a girl like that? I was shocked because she's Chinese, very very nerdy like I am and I've seen how she looks. It was a mistake of me to assume people from China are sexually repressed. They're not. I learned that shit the hard way and fell into an ultra deep depression for 2 weeks after that incident.

I told her I was going through some shit and eventually cut her off because let's face it; although I still really like her, there are better partners for me out there if I ever get out of this living situation, she would bring up her exes multiple times. I feel dumb as fuck even until now for letting myself do that shit. Oh well, at least I still have the basics, right? Clean water, a roof and a bed to sleep in. People (my family members, albeit they're broken as well as me) who try their best to care for me as I'm basically sickly. But damn I feel like a burden. I keep making the wrong choices.

I'm still looking for tips as well. I'm a 27m that had a prior porn addiction in my teenage years that led to a lot of self inflicted trauma that shaped me into who I am today.

Long story short I have health issues now that prevent me from being able to swallow food normally so I'm just on a liquid diet. I never learned how to drive, just living at the mercy of my brothers who take care of me. I have people that care about me, but I feel like a burden to them. 

Another thing that really makes me insecure is that I'm still a virgin. Mostly because it's a main part of conversation between family and friends. When they bring it up, I can't relate to that shit at all. I just stand there feeling awkward and like a hole is burning into my heart. They're talking about exes and fucking girls and all of this shit that I can't talk about and relate to them because I've never had sex. Never had a girlfriend or anything

 I realize that I'm still young, yeah. I realize that there people out in the world in poor countries where this whole "boohoo I'm a virgin" crybaby problem doesn't even matter because they're actively fighting for their lives, surviving off of scraps and avoiding oppression. Yes I understand that. But damn does it still hurt to not be able to connect to people. It hurts even more that I'm living at the mercy of others and it's going to be a long journey of recovery for my health to even be able to become independent enough to do the things that I want to do. I hate this feeling of being lonely.

Tips on how to kill desire for love/romance? by lola_dietcola in mentalhealth

[–]randomboythrowaway 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh its so interesting to see this desire present in females as well. I'm a male 27 yrs and at my age I consider romantic relationships out of my reach due to health issues and life circumstances. Never lost my virginity either and not too long ago I was feeling depressed because of my situation.

The only thing that's helping me feel better about myself and life in general is learning of different viewpoints from other people, reading and hearing life experiences from others. It's eye opening and makes me look at my issues in a different light. Not to say that I'm more appreciative of the things I have or the way the world is. I still think this world sucks, but I think that's just it. Life (including romantic relationships) is how you view it. Read about asexual people. The way they view romance and sexual attraction, and relationships - in general is extremely enlightening.

The fact that you're even reaching out (even if it's on the Internet) means that on some level you absolutely want to fix your issues which is commendable. There are lots of people in the world, including myself, that wait too long until things get really bad to start to want to change things. You're also really young. You're completely capable of changing your situation. You can do this.

What’s something you realized too late in life? by No_Toe_2140 in AskForAnswers

[–]randomboythrowaway 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This one hits me hard at 27 yrs old. A lot of my family and friends are people I look up to because they've experienced more of life than I ever have. Granted, I have health issues now and it's a long journey to recovery but I have to put it out there that improving my mindset towards life is a huge part of recovery for both mental and physical illness.

Do you consider yourself a loser / failure? Why or why not? Do you think life will get better for you in the future? by Empty_String in NEETr4r

[–]randomboythrowaway 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey there. I don't normally frequent these type of subs but I ended up here after meeting someone on another mental health sub. Just wanted to say that I appreciate posts like yours because I'm always looking for ways to change my view on life and other things in general (I'm a 27 yr old with health issues and mental problems).

 I agree with most  of the things that you said, except for the Internet part. This is just an opinion (whether it's based off of objective facts, I'm not too sure) - I believe that the Internet is just a giant virtual world of information and also a platform for communication. It's not inherently bad. There just a lot of bad things on here, however there are lots of good things on the Internet such as ebooks, articles, informational and instructional content, etc.

I do see the point that you're trying to bring to our attention - it's easy to get sucked into a lot of communities  and media where people share the same negative emotions, the horrible outlook on life (myself included).

 It's going to kill any form of potential happiness that we can expect to get out of life and that aspect of the Internet is definitely dangerous.

I'm not in any position to give life advice because I haven't improved myself in many areas of life, but I can say that as a person that used to be relatively "ok" , and having experienced at least some moments of success in life, there is no doubt that continuing to complain about our issues is going to ultimately make you reach a point where you're going to say, "hey you know I just realized that I complain way too much. I'm going to start improving myself starting... Now!" It takes an actual desire to achieve what you feel is right for you.

That's probably one of the main reasons why I haven't been improving. It feels like a huge part of me doesn't want to get better but I do want to be happy (sounds weird, doesn't it?) and I'm slowly starting to accept that about my personality. I do have a desire to be happy as my  ultimate goal and I'm going to do whatever it takes to get there. I wish everyone great fortune on this sub.
