>>81596063Ok so here's a realistic assessment (based on my own life)
If you start right now, it'll take about 3 years to see significant results and in about 5 you'll start surpassing most peoples energy/happiness levels,
You basically have to do something that makes you feel like youre making some progress no matter how small, it could be as little as saying "I am going to improve" 10 times, as long as it's something. Over time these habits get stronger like a snowball. You'll probably be stuck doing the the low level habits for years.
Obviously things like exersize, eatting right drinking water, etc, help (in that they don't make you feel better but they stop you from feeling worse).
Don't fall into the trap of taking on to much when you feel motivate (because that feeling will end).
How to deal with mental stuff:
1)negative thoughts can easily be overiden via mediation (if you do it properly) especially the idea people are judging you.
2)negative emotions are harder and require noting meditation (what people call "mindfulness). One interesting thing to mindfulness is your reaction time becomes like a cats (I can catch falling knives and that's kind of stuff)
3)schizo issues require visualization meditation to overcome. I won't get into it because you probably don't have it.
Meditation is boring so do a tiny bit and expand from there.
Change is very slow for a long ass time and then suddenly very rapid. However long you think it'll take it'll take three times longer.
Good luck.
