It won't get better unless you want it to get better. Nobody will help you. You must help yourself.

Yeah, I know. It is what it is.

That mindset will get you nowhere in life.

Neither has trying lol. Don't worry, I'll lay some newspaper down when it's time to do the decent thing.

You haven't tried hard enough.

u/SquirrelNormal 1d ago

Ah, yes, because you know what I have or haven't tried, for how long. Get a grip, mate.

Get a grip on your life. If you give up, you're not doing yourself any favors.

I agree with the other guy. I did try to fight my ass out of this pit, but sometimes, it's useless and will only worsen the situation. Just a simple exemple : let's say you're locked into a room, with nothing. You can try to break the walls by repeatedly hitting them with your head, or just wait. Let's say you DID hit the wall repeatedly with your head, noticed it was painful and the wall didn't move. Would you still be trying ?

Yep, I would. I'm not like you; I'm stronger, so I wouldn't give up like you :)

And you'd be in more pain, and still be locked in. But I read you were 20, so it's normal you think this way. I really hope you'll still think like this in a few years, but I doubt you will.

Nobody cares. I don't deserve to "do myself a favor", and there's no point at this stage in my life. It's not hurting anyone to give up.

Except yourself, and if that's truly what you believe, then perhaps it is too late for you. Life throws all kinds of challenges at us, but it our strength and willpower that will carry us through it.

Oh no, a loser is going to be a loser.

Like I said, nobody cares. I can't willpower my way out of being too dumb for a degree, or get my DUI removed. So why bother even crawling out of bed in the morning?

neither will the one you have. Plenty of people will help you, you just have to ask. Stop furthering this hyper individualist mindset, its damaging.

u/Traditional-Bread678 16h ago

Nope, nobody truly helps you out of the hole you put yourself in. It's up to you to climb out of it. But hey, if my mindset is so damaging, I apologize, but you'll be alright :)
