How do you cope with the realization that you wasted your life?

>>33836004 (OP)
Define “wasted” first.

>>33836009
Doing manchild shit instead of fixing your issues and living a normal life.

>>33836004 (OP)
What? I just spent the last week and a half watching The Forbidden Show and shitposting loudly with my best friends. It's everyone else who's wasting their lives.

>>33836004 (OP)
the average person spends all their free time on social media and netflix and stops having friends by 40

>>33836061
Yeah but at least they have their own place, a steady career and family of their own.

>>33836004 (OP)
It would have been wasted if you were normal and had potential for greater things. There is no "wasted time" when you are born weak/mentally ill. Living a recluse life is just the normal thing to do in that situation.

>>33836102
Is that what you tell yourself?

Dissociating, mostly.

>>33837570
No, it's just a fact.

>>33836004 (OP)
I won't read cope threads. There is no cope, only do. OP is just too [list of flaws] to do anything.

>>33836013
I didn't. I've worked since I was 10 on the farm, got my first job at 15, found a real career at 22 and at 25 I'm even starting to get good at it. I'm melting away my debts, engaged to an amazing woman, saving for a house and we're planning to have a couple kids once we get married.

The key is balance. I still *do* manchild shit, it's just not my priority. When I get some down time I'll play some games, drink some beers and doomscroll for a bit, but only when I don't have prior obligations. Sometimes I make relaxing my priority and put off 'adult' shit to focus on my mental health too, you need to strike a balance.

I enjoyed all the things a middle class man could enjoy. The only things that are off limits are for the rich. I dont really care anymore.

>>33836004 (OP)
If i recall accurately from wikia comic book guy states in canon that it was a life well spent, but it was a filler episode that he wasted his life

>>33836004 (OP)
>why yes, I am 22 years old - how could you tell?

>>33838175
honestly
>successful small business owner
>true to himself and his lifestyle
>integral part of the community
>wide social circle
and apparently in newer seasons he gets a japanese waifu and has kids with her?
bro won at life.

>>33836065
So you're comparing yourself to this mythical average person - and covet these things in particular. Well guess what, these things really aren't that out of your reach, apply yourself and get these things, easy as, getting it before versus getting it now doesn't make a difference really, unless you've suddenly turned really ugly for some reason (which I doubt)? Or you care about fertility, but I doubt you have thought that far ahead anyway, and you'd probably be satiated by like 2 children white picket fence pipeline so it doesn't really matter that much. I'd say doable in 5 years, ez.

>>33836004 (OP)
Every life is wasted. You live for a relatively short period of time, and then you die and nothing you did on earth matters. Whether or not God exists, you're taking nothing from earthly life and it doesn't matter if you were a gigachad billionaire at 19 or a loser neet your whole life. All of it is meaningless.

>everybody I don't like is weak and mentally ill
why are normgroids like this

It's not meant as an insult. Normal people don't waste their time online, let alone on anime imageboards. The fact OP is here asking that question gives away the fact he isn't a healthy good-looking 6ft2 chad studying to become a surgeon at a prestigious school or something. Which is not bad in itself. It's just the acknowledgement of his situation that is lacking.

By realizing self pity and ruminating on the past gets you nowhere, and you still have the rest of your life to live. Meditation helps a lot with this.

>>33836004 (OP)
by acknowledging very little in your life was actually under your control and 90% of luck is predetermined by luck
>looks
>genetics
>iq
>money
>country of origin
>illnesses

and so and so on

most of that is just luck
you chose better parents next life

>>33836004 (OP)
Suicide or work harder.

>>33836004 (OP)
I wouldn't say I wasted my life. At worst, I'm in the process of wasting my dreams by not pursuing them, but even then I wouldn't say my life as a whole is wasted. Does it hurt that I'm nowhere near accomplishing the things I've wanted for over twenty years? Sure, it hurts a lot. But the life I've crafted outside my dreams is still one I can be proud of: successful career (albeit one that does not directly feed into my dream goals in life), loving wife, kids who make me happy, and a home for them all. I live my life knowing I have plenty of time to make up for the things I haven't done yet, because sitting in a ball and crying about my regrets seems like a waste of time.

>>33836004 (OP)
The nuke detonates right after you realize it, so it's not big deal.

>>33836004 (OP)
By telling myself I still have time to waste

>>33836102
Maybe you're right. Even in my 30s it still feels like this
t. dumb and mentally ill

>>33836004 (OP)
have children and waste theirs instead

>Doing manchild shit instead of fixing your issues and living a normal life.
Where was your family? The existence of a manchild is more his teachers' and parents' failure than the manchild's

>>33836004 (OP)
You’re still breathing. Whining is just wasting more time. Get back to work

>>33836004 (OP)
You take notes, start working on your issues, and you push on. What's done is done, it's all in the past. You're goal should be now to pursue and do what you've wanted your whole life.

>>33836004 (OP)
Stop wasting it then, faggot. You're not dead yet. Do something.

>>33836013
Entirely subjective. If you're trying to be a normalfag, then you have until age 25 to be a low tier failed normie. After that if you're a neet or a fuckup, you're pretty much that way for life.
Otherwise who gives a shit. Asians develop passive aggressive resentment for not living up to their parents striver dreams. White people turn evil if they can't live up to WASP anglo habits. The game is fake and gay and winds up enabling libtard gangbang behaviors to cope with being a failure to their retarded ass peers.

>>33844308
That's life in general mate. You put on your best face. No one with a life worth living walks around mentally living in their lowest moments after they've past.

>>33836004 (OP)
>>33836013
You have around 16 hours a day to spend on fixing your shit, living a normal life and doing manchild shit. You can do all of these things if you manage your time wisely.

If some of the shit you have to fix boils down to things like your hygiene, diet and quality of sleep, that hardly takes any time or effort at all.

>>33836004 (OP)
Sublimation

>>33836004 (OP)
By wasting it no more

Practice gratefulness to the one who created the universe. To be alive is a great blessing and you should never underestimate its value. The only solution for this life is reading the noble Quran and follow the traditions of prophet Muhammad, peace, goodness, blessings be upon him from Allah the almighty.

did you have fun at least?

>>33848948
Turn to Christ, he cares for you and wants a relationship with you but he can't do that if you live in sin, he cares for you immensely and wants you to be happy

should've held more BTC fasho. The renewable majority part just didn't sink in that it would make mining cheaper.

Realizing that nothing could have ever been different.
Free will is an illusion.
Get some help from fungi, perhaps.

There was never any potential, you drove the only path you were ever able to

drugs and alcohol and then murder or kys.

>>33836004 (OP)
it's hard, but I'm getting better at accepting it. Many of my qualities and habits were given at birth, just like location, family and time where you start. (meaning I can't change it, it's permanent) You can only do so much, and sure, "reach for the stars follow your dreams" etc, but they never tell you how many failed where 1 succeeded. History swallows up the losers, and in time even the winners.

I don't want to bang my head against the wall 100 times and try again the 101th time, overall speaking. If I don't like something I don't do it, I won't be forced to marry a busted hag just to have a downie son. There is freedom in this thinking, accepting not following norms. There are billions of average joe normies, why is it a crime to be something different? Don't have to be a blue haired tranny for that, just don't drink alcohol like water or something.
It was considered cool to be different decades ago, but for some reason today it isn't. Is it low global IQ, the internet's doing, or jewish tricks again? I just know I'd be unhappy living a pretend-life.

The anon reading this must ruminate these things by himself, no one else can do it for you. Which is more important, what compromises can you live with, and the likes.

i make music about it

>>33836004 (OP)
I didn't "waste" my life because there was nothing to waste. I was born a subhuman and had no potential from the start.

>>33836004 (OP)
It ain't my fault considering the circumstances.

There is no such thing as a normal life in 2025 unless you're a boomer or late Gen X.

It really becomes more apparent as you get older and realize how fucked you are

>Where was your family?
nta but they ruined me in every way imaginable, at this point I'd rather they not get involved because all they do is put me down and make me worse
>The existence of a manchild is more his teachers' and parents' failure than the manchild's
while accurate you can't force them to take responsibility, they messed up but you have to clean the mess because it's your problem not their's, it's you who'll suffer, in a worldly sense at least, i believe that all people like this will get their judgment in the afterlife
