I think I’ve given up.

Support yourself.

That's how I've always lived. That works for me.

Plus when men do get mental help, we're heavily stigmatized as well. And THAT will only get worse. Actually seek treatment, not only will you be treated most likely badly, and then on paper, you're considered defective, tainted, diseased, and dangerous.

First thing is: Hope!

There will be better time..., IF YOU DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT.

Care for yourself, workout, eat healthy ( Omegaoils, D3, B12...)

You will also get new and better friends.

Giving up is a mental state, you have always the choice. Nothing is over yet.

Start by cleaning your room.

I know it is trivial, but this how you give yourself a small amount of energy in the morning, by accomplishing a small task.

Be content.

Being mgtow doesn't mean shutting everyone out, it is being satisfied with yourself, how satisfied are you? If you are at the low end, you can always improve, brothers over here give great advice, study, learn, workout, diet, hobbies, etc... if you are at the high end try to maintain that level.

Work.

Having a job helps in boosting confidence, but by just staying busy doing what you love is equally important. Don't drop the ball.

Faith.

It doesn't matter if you are religious or not, have that positive attitude that shines to the world, you will see people will gravitate towards you.

Peace brother ✌

To me that's a big part of what made me an MRA back in the day and a supporter of MGTOW now, the fact that nobody gives a fuck about men.

I quit being a men's rights activist upon realizing that the vast majority of men don't give a fuck about men either.

Give a fuck about yourself, because you're the only one that really loves you, cares about you and has your own best interest at heart.

I think a huge issue that fools us the most is that a woman CAN love her son, so we grow up thinking women are capable of great, unconditional love.

Nope.

It sucks it really really sucks that you have to go through it alone I had a similar situation where I broke up with my ex and got really depressed about everything and I needed my friends to help me, they didn't care that much I was rotting away.

While I was in my relationship they always wanted to hang out and say I was whipped and blah blah. Eventually when I left it was like a total realization that not only did my ex not really care about me but neither did my friends really at all. And for years I tried to help and be friends with them so sad man put me into an even deeper depression.

I was alone for the first time ever in my life family never really gave a shit it seemed like they all thought I got what I deserved because of my always optimistic outlook I had, I'm pretty sure they hated my guts because of how tenacious and high I carried and valued myself. Because as soon as I dumped her I was so terribly sad and then they dropped the bomb of being entirely heartless and ignoring me.

I pleaded so much I needed them and they ignored me and didn't want to understand me.

It was like a coordinated attack by everyoneive ever cared about. I was doomed to fail or so they thought. I found the redpill and understand that people go through these things it hurts, hell I'm still hurting hard but, I know I have to keep going for me because o want to continue being the person I was but better and more knowledgeable.

It hurts so much I know because I'm still hurting too but seriously start figuring out what makes you happy and continue with that, not everyone has to like you.

I'm sure you'll be fine just like I'm sure I'll be fine because we have to keep going even if they dont want us too.

Therapists dont help, all they do is listen and ask questions, they dont give you helpful advice because if they did, then you would see them less and they would make less money and this wouldnt make their business very profitable. If you want really good life advice that doesnt involve women, check out Aaron Clarey's consulting business and read his books, that is going to be way more useful than a therapist who is just going to lie to you to try and make you feel better. Everyone around me has always lied to me, including my parents, instead of accepting the truth of why most women arent attracted to me which is due to my low SMV, they pretend that its because I dont go out enough and need to put myself out there, but when I do that, nothing changes.

When I explained to a neuropsychologist my whole life story including my childhood, instead of telling me that I simply wasnt attractive enough for the girls in my classes and that is why they didnt like me, she simply told me that I am on the autism spectrum, nevermind the fact that I never had trouble communicating with people but was just introverted, that is like calling Nikola Tesla autistic and telling him that he should join aspie coping groups. Society will always try to make you believe its all in the mind, they will say that you attract what you are and that you should just be more confident but never will they dare to come out and tell you that you are ugly, poor and have no friends and that is why women dont like you. If I go to college and work very hard and then get a degree in electrical engineering and work hard building my career, all the women that rejected me in the past would be chasing after me because of my money, and not only them but also women who are in their early 20s even though right now in my early 20s, none of them are attracted to me. This is the true hypocrisy of women and why mgtow is the only way. If she didnt like you for yourself when you had nothing, then it doesnt take a genius to figure out that your success with women in the future is only due to your money and resources.

Society will never acknowledge things like LMS, which is why if you go to a therapist, you will only get blue pilled.

I went through this exact phase. I used to put a lot of effort in reaching out to "friends", trying to keep the connection going. As soon I stopped, none of these "friends" ever texted back.

This led me down a really pessimistic view of life: everyone only cares about themselves. You can try to argue against this point, but all human actions are intended to improve or maintain your current state. Let me elaborate:

If you dive into the Pavlov's hierarchy, you see that after the basic needs of food and shelter (both of which can be quantified), we require "fuzzy" things like friends, companionship, etc... I declare them as fuzzy because it's hard to measure it's inherit value. Example: What is a friend? Can I quantify a friend and map them on a graph? Not really, a friend "feels" friendly, like a "good" person. But feelings change all the time, and you can't depend on such a fickle thing. You can argue, well I've known this friend all my life. He would drop everything to help me out. But would he really? He might or might not, based on how he "feels".

Once you become red pilled, you realize that it's not a war on women, but a war against "feelings". The Red Pill teaches you that don't be a slave to your "feelings" towards women. Naturally, you can extend this to all "feelings". But, you can argue, that sexual companionship is different than a friend or comrade. Sure, but they're both cut from the same cloth. You're depending on others for your self-preservation, and at any moment they could abandon you based on their "feelings". You can try to get a dog to provide that sense of loyalty, that "feeling" of a friend. But, you're still a slave to your "feelings".

You don't need a therapist. Just sit down and introspect everything that you think makes you happy or sad. And then keep asking yourself why those things change your emotional state. And then ask yourself why does it upset you that nobody messages you. Keep introspectng and you'll get to true monk mode where you won't be phased by humans and "feelings".

It’s too bad society has turned into this. Honestly we need world war 3 and I’m not scared of the thought of it. Women need to hit the front lines just like men. Equality. The gynocentric societies of the world are in dire need of a correction. There needs to be a way to humble everyone in this world of arrogance, narcissism, and entitlement we live in.

Try this song, it always helps me mate 'ELO - Hold on Tight'

NikolaiFranklin · 2019-09-17T14:52:44+00:00

Stop caring about people except for your parents (only if they support you). Rest everything will fall in place...

betterforitall · 2019-09-17T02:34:23+00:00

I'm going to be a douche and say be the change you want to see in the world.

Call your friends.
