    Bro you gotta take care of yourself. What do you want? You can do anything you put your mind too. Don’t stress too much about your job. Look for another while you have this job. Sound like you have hobbies that you like but don’t commit. You should really focus on saving money for a guitar and learn how to play to gain self confidence and feel accomplish in something. I’d recommending getting a haircut to add volume to your hair and changing to a healthier diet and exercising more. I’m a girl but been in your situation before until I cut everyone off and did what I wanted to do. No judgements from others just free. The only way to fix depression is to fix the things causing your depression. Also don’t worry about everything from your past. Forget the things you were upset about happened and remember you want to do things differently. Get off of social media and don’t compare yourself to anyone.

    Wishing I could have found this advice in my 20’s. I actually wasted my 20’s working jobs that I hated, experienced the 2008 economic collapse, overworked, underpaid and in debt. Unfortunately I made some mistakes in life but my 30’s are much better. Just remember that life is like a movie and you are the director, only you can decide the narrative of the movie. Being an adult is not easy and isn’t fun. However you are ambitious and talented. You got this bro, just stay strong and focused on your dreams. Shit sucks right now, I totally understand the frustration. You are not alone. ❤️🙏

      @@proton580 it’s actually getting a little bit better. Best advice I can give is to grind in your 20’s. Hustle and grind in your early twenties and stay debt free if possible. If you have the financial means to travel then do so. Life will get complicated as you get older and will be harder to travel and experiment with new things. The worst thing any young person can do is load up on debt and have addictions. You will also notice that your circle of friends will probably get smaller as you grow older.

      @@proton580 Wow I forgot all about this comment I made, but anyway, I'm 22 now got a factory job, Im struggling to make ends meet, things have just been up and down but I guess that's life, I met a female at one of my jobs, we really hit it off and she was cool and funny but due to the small town I live in it turns out were distant cousins which I found out the night I took her to her prom so uh...yeah, were still cool, but she has a boyfriend now and I think she had one at the time I was talking to her unbeknowist to me. But that whole situation broke me for bout half a year, but I came back from it, though I haven't really dealt with a female since then as Im trying to focus on myself. I have been driving for bout a year now and set to get my license before the year out so that's good news, I'll be able to get out more and away from my small town to meet different females and new experiences. I don't really consider myself to be in a better position than I was a year ago if I being honest, but my advice to anyone younger than me is, always take good care of yourself, don't let depression or mental health keep you from showering daily, brushing your teeth, eating, going outside, force yourself to be the best version of you, because I let those things get me down and as a result it screwed up my health a bit, but Im still pushing forward and praying that things will get better and Im trying to have faith that one day. I will have a beautiful wife and a beautiful family and be financially stable, easy said than done but I just gotta believe, hope that helps man, I know it probably won't in this day in age, its hard for us young people especially us young men to see a light at the end of the tunnel with the way society is now, anyway stay blessed🙏🏾

    Every single one of my siblings has someone special in their lives that are close to a best friend or even more than a friend, and I actually don't have anyone. I've given up, I'm 19 I still stay at home, I've never gotten a job because I don't know how, and I need my mom's help for it, and I just can't do it. I don't know what it is I just simply can't do it anymore I can't go outside, I can't socially interact with people I fail all the time. And it physically hurts to the point where I just want to stop everything, I dunno what it is I just wanna pull over get out of my car and just lay down and stop (metaphor or whatever I dunno how to drive), I want to be nothing, I wish I was nothing, I truly wish sometimes that I wasn't born, I really do, because sure I wouldn't know what life is like, but when you think about it, it technically would be fine right? If I don't exist or if I'm not aware of what life even is then what's the big deal? Am I gonna be sad? No because I would just simply be nothing like an inanimate object or i would just be an air particle or something I dunno I just wish it was as easy to become nothing just like how you go on your computer and put a file in a trash can and press clear trash, I wish it would be that easy to not have existed, later on I will change, sometimes at certain moments TV and videogames will make me forget about how I feel, and right now as I am typing this but probably not as how you are reading this I am actually confident that if a time machine was presented towards me i would actually try to stop my parents from ever creating me and I just simply do not care with what anybody else thinks right now, but maybe later on when I'm in a more good of a mood I will look back and think nah I don't wanna stop my parents, I dunno what I am typing anymore I'm just gonna close my eyes and wake up the next day and hopefully not remember this until later on at like maybe 5:33 PM who knows honestly, it's 3:07 AM right now and I just hate myself so fucking much I can't even get a good sleep school because I need sleep pills to help me sleep now, well goodbye, and whatever if you have any mixed feelings over this comment, I'm just a random stranger somewhere in Illinois. Peace.

      @@proton580 I've gotten better, I decided to workout last May right when summer started, I used to weight 260 but now I weight 206 I'm pretty tall so that weight loss difference is really good, also at the beginning of May I decided to focus on fragrances and my skin condition. I have a good skin care routine now and smell good and I'm slowly building up muscle, I also got a job too, but I still struggle with learning how to drive and talking to people and women.
      Honestly my advice is the same as any other advice either choose to make a change or don't, some people in this world are just born lucky either tall or good genetics or they just like working out, or have a skill that you might not have, or some or most people might not like what or who you are/identify as, thats just how it is and there is a lot I would give anything to change about myself but life isn't a videogame, and I come to terms with it but its best to start off slow at one small improvement at a time i decided to start doing that in the summer because i had nothing important to rely on or anyone important to rely on me, so instead of just waking up and going on my phone everyday and playing the game, I decided to workout, buy different types of lotion and fragrances for myself, get a job, and I decided at the end of summer I would start by talking to my friends again because I haven't seen them in person in literal years but I was always in contact with them online, eventually when I saw my friends at the end of July they saw a huge improvement instead of a fat nobody who didn't make an effort. My friends tell me now that I look really good and that I'm slightly muscular, I want to keep improving my body and then learn how to drive, and once I do the only thing I'll have to do is talk to women to try and get a girlfriend.
      Honestly it was obvious for me to know where to start, but it might be harder for other people who have people or things involved in their life taking up their time, but I think the best way of slowing improving is on your days off or any days you have free time, please try to actually get up and improve what you believe is wrong with yourself, take a look and think what do i need to work better on? my hair? Weight? Money? Room? Social life? Those small improvements will help you be more humble and content with life, but be careful don't be too humble know your worth in life you deserve more if you prove it and make an effort.

    It's good to see you again, man! I'm an obsessive Billie & Finneas fan - and your reaction to their cover of M.J.'s "Bad" is one of my all-time favs! I would like for you to prioritize the TH-cam reaction stuff (really anything about those two artists). But, that's just me. The guitar store thing sounds good for you. Your life is not wasted when you can engage in something that gives you a satisfying creative outlet. Prioritize whatever that is - and the experience will be a treasure that money can't buy. Please, keep us posted whenever you can. "You are not alone. You are not unknown."-B.E.

    I get it to some extent. The same way you say you feel in a guitar store is how I felt on a football field. Not guitar playing of course, and of course I wasn't going to play ball in the pros, so when I got out of college it was like I lost my identity. It really messed me up and I became more depressed because of it. Took me a while to crawl out of it but eventually I did. Good thing for you is that you can keep playing guitar for a long time. Hope you figure it out.
