    Red face I am a loser and my life sucks. Can I turn it around?

    Fellow ISHers I am going to take a hiatus from ish and other boards for awhile. I really thought about my fukked up life for awhile and am wondering how to turn it around.

    These following posters, if you are reading this thread can you help out/give advice?


    Akrazotile, Im Still Ballin, nathanjizzle, Dresta, UK2K, DonDadda59, Back In Shape, DeuceWallaces, DCL, Nick Young, ~primetime~, NumberSix, KBlaze8855, and L. Kizzle




    I am 30 years old at the moment. Wrap that around your heads first. Here are my issues:

    1) I am a virgin and have never been in a relationship. I fap 5 times a day and look at porn constantly. I am very addicted to it and don't know how to deal without it.

    2) I am on message boards 12-16 hours a day.

    3) I live with my 60 year old mother who provides for me.

    4) I only have a learner's license and no car.

    5) I am unemployed and broke.

    6) I have no confidence and social anxiety problems. I am very timid. No social life. I am sort of introverted so don't mind not having a social life that much.

    7) This past December I graduated with a two year degree in Business Management. I am still unemployed.


    8) The only thing I would say I'm good at is public speaking but can't think of any careers I can do regarding that/how to parlay that into making money.


    I'm not saying you all are wealthy and successful and have your life together. I'm not saying you all are perfect and don't struggle in your lives. You guys all have your lives more together than me I would say. Lots of you all are intelligent. This isn't a troll thread. I know last time I asked for help/advice, Akrazotile said I was being a troll. I would still like for him to give me advice because I like reading his posts on economics and politics along with Dresta and NumberSix.

    You can turn it around bro. Believe in yourself, envision the idealized version of yourself that you want to become, and don't stop working and fighting until you achieve it. You only got one life so make the most of it

    Start with simple goals and begin building good habits. As long as you are working to improve yourself and make positive change, you will start feeling better about yourself and slowly but surely all of the pieces will fall in to place.


    ALSO, cut all negative influences and peers out of your life and start only associating with positive people who support you. You are who you hang out with.


    This is the most important advice. Start exercising and eating more healthy. When your body is healthy and looks good, confidence comes naturally, and your mind will be healthier as well.

    I don't think OP is a troll. He posted something similar 3 years ago:

    1. dont worry about being a virgin. It doesnt make you less of a person.
    2. you need to find a job. once you have one you will be on less.
    3. And thats okay, you need to rely on your parents to become independent, everyone does.
    4. Make it your first priority to get a license.
    5. Find a job, and dedicate your self to it.
    6. accept who you are. you do not need to be social and outgoing to be a valuable human being.
    7. good for you. now be confident in what you know and find a job.
    8. public speaking is a great skill that most people are not good at. I dont know how you have social anxiety but are a good public speaker.

    Because J$ has a history of concocting various scenarios and asking people about them under the guise of advice, simply to learn more about every poster here for his meticulous personal archive.

    Do you remember back on his VCDAPTW account he once claimed off-hand somewhere that rather than talk about his real life it was much more appealing to make up elaborate storylines to share? And then a few months later he claimed to have some relatively believable story about overlooking the east river as an accountant, and got exposed etc? Also he had a Raconteur account dedicated to stalking catzhernandez.

    I think hes just a weird, sick dude. He keeps tabs on everyone here and wants to know more about them. Makes up weird shit on his alts to get people to talk about themselves and what they think.

    But again, Ive been wrong before. If this guy posts a video, Ill eat my words.

    Appreciate the advice. See this is what I'm talking about. You actually gave advice but all Akrazotile does is call me a troll.

    I am good at public speaking but have social anxiety because when it comes to talking to people in more intimate settings/one on one settings I feel worried about what people think of me constantly. When you are speaking in front of groups it is just different for me.

    Damn, that's ****ing weird. I think in a debate about Islam he said something along the lines of "killing someone [in this life] is not the worst thing you can do to a person" shit was really off-putting.

    idk about this Heilige guy though. He doesn't seem like a troll, more actually asking for help. Although I'm not really sure why he singled out like a dozen accounts asking for advice, that's kinda strange. If he's telling the truth about himself though, he's not going to post a video of him singing, so you might want to offer him another way of verification.
