Not /adv/ so bad advice only.
Freud said that the two basic drives of man were Eros and Thanatos. "Survival" implies that you're running on empty off your sex drive, but if you focus on todestrieb instead, then you will no longer be in survival mode; you'll have a death wish.

You know how to do it. You just eat more go out more and shower more obviously. You just need to learn to endure the pain of improving which isn't some knowledge someone can share with you but dragging yourself through uncomfortable moments to do things that should be done and over time that'll slowly get easier

>In Freudian theory, Thanatos represents the death drive, while Eros represents the life drive. Where Thanatos leads people to experience aggression, engage in risky behaviors, and re-experience past traumas, Eros helps promote survival, reproduction, and social cooperation. It is the complex interaction between the two that helps shape human behavior.
i've had both moments before, but i want the Eros to stay - i dont like being like this but it's all i've ever known
