What do I do?

'I'm on drugs all the time and I ignore my problems. I constantly feel like shit. What should I do?'

Do you really need to ask bro

I sustain basically on drugs and constantly ignore/procrastinate my problems such as extreme financial debt and depression/anxiety.

"I'm a drug addict who doesn't face up to my problems. What do?"
You stop taking all drugs immediately and you never take them again. And don't give me all that "I'm not addicted, I can quit any time I want" bullshit. Try to not drink and take drugs for 2 weeks. You'll suddenly realise how addicted you are.

I can't force myself to go to the gym anymore

In combination with getting off drugs, you need to go to the gym. I don't care how much you don't want to do it. It'll save your life.

I feel like I'm in a loop that will only end when I blow my fucking brains out. 22 btw

Yeah maybe. Get out of this rut.

I'm not that off from you. 21 and I already feel stuck in a rut. Like I have nothing else to live for. I'm extremely bored with life and my favorite part of the day is getting shit faced at night and playing video games or laying in my bed on my phone. But I trying to get help.

See a therapist. You're most likely depressed. Stop the drugs they'll only make you feel worse when sober.

First things first. Do you want to get better? If you don't want to get better, then you will not get better.

Let's identify your problem.

You are a 22 year old male. I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that you don't have any positive male role models in your life? Raised by a single mom? Or perhaps dad works all the time and isn't around? Or also common, dad is around but he isn't really a "manly" man type. I suspect one of the above is true.

I would guess the reason you're so depressed and unmotivated is similar to a crisis that so many young men are facing. You lack purpose. You have no idea what to do with your life and you feel stuck.

Let me know if I'm ringing some bells here and we can continue.

You are not alone. Hang in there.

Go get help with your identity crisis. Obviously you have vices such as excessive weed and video games and what ever has put you into extreme debt.

Now is the time to act and I guarantee that it gets better when your are older if you put in the work now

How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time. Take whatever steps you can in the right direction and see them as wins

If you have a drug addiction, we can't make much for you. Check for an ibogaine treatment.

Go to a doctor. You probably have depression.
