QUESTION: How to not commit suicide when your future looks like sh*t and you have no idea how to make it better, no idea what you want to become, and just keep tasting defeat when you try to stand back up and go for things you want?
Things usually change after awhile I've noticed. Even if you do literally nothing but just wait it out. I've felt pretty shitty or mediocre for the past almost 10 years but have been feeling pretty good for the past little while after going through 2 of the worst things that've ever happened to me at the same time. Maybe you have to hit rock bottom or something and then things get a lot better or at least your values/perspective changes because of it. I dunno. Just my experience.
I don't know what your experiences have been and this might be totally off the ball, but if it's possible keep trying different activities and meeting different people; there will definitely be something you enjoy and can be productive at. If it's hard to have opportunities to do new things in your current circumstances, play the long game and look for opportunities as they come; something will be worth it.
The best way to find out what you want is to keep finding out what you dont want. Just keep reinventing yourself, until you find yourself. knowing yourself is the most important thing in this entire existence. pursue the path of wisdom. ask and you shall receive.
the red lion - the elixir of eternal life by maria szepes...try reading it. maybe this is your sign.
Obsess yourself with what you love. Find that one thing and stick to it. Always remember though, not only are you obsessing over it, but others are too, so try to be the best because there's always room for improvement.
A lot of things do go as planned, you just have to make the best out of it. It's going to be hard, I know. But everyday is a struggle, just try to smile and look past everything...it'll get better...it will
Life is life an MMORPG, its only hard if you're in the grind for more things.
