Throughout my life, I've been screwed over. I'm not even 20, and twice in my life I was falsely accused of hurting a woman. Once of beating a girl up in middle school, and once of sexually assaulting a woman in college (you can imagine how poorly that could have gone, I was basically forced to take something like a plea deal so I didn't get reported, so now a good amount of people think I'm some sort of crazed rapist). I spent most of my life until high school being bullied. I'm my parents least favorite child. For most of my life, I was able to shake this stuff off, I was able to become successful, entering an Ivy League school, and get summer jobs that paid above 10000 a month, but it's gotten to the point where now it's just wearing me down. I used to get really sad at least, but now I just feel nothing. Like I'm so detached at this point. It's affecting my motivation, to the point where I don't want to do anything, and it will impact my success. I don't feel like do anything anymore and it's affecting my grade and academics. I might be developing depression, but like hell I'm going to some psychotherapist to medicate (neuter) my brain. I'm not about to medicate myself into a robot. I want my masculine drive back (not that I had one to begin with, was never a super hard worker, just talented),

​

So how do you get yourself out of a funk like this? I'm thinking of trying to get angry to use that as motivation, but I rarely get angry. I've never been the angry type. I just get sad. I know a lot of you guys have gone through traumatic situations with women, and life in general, and have been able to succeed in spite of that. So how do I go from feeling numb, to feeling some type of emotion, positive or negative, enough to motivate me to succeed? How can you make yourself angry enough to work hard to achieve your goals everyday? What gives you that masculine drive?a

Please don't give me advice if your depressed, and doing nothing but complaining. Not calling MGTOW whiners, but there are whiners in here, I've been one of them. Nothing wrong with that it's just a phase you go through when you first take the red pill. But at a certain point, we have to get over that and motivate ourselves for success. I want to work hard and not whine on the internet
