You can find so much to live for if you only look. Don't give up. Some people are late bloomers at life. But everyone blooms. Keep up the fight!

"Now I have come back, made some new friends both male and female (Asians only) and yeah, life has been good. I’m struggling with my math courses but that’s about the only worry I have. Essentially I went monk. This is the most peaceful time I ever had."
You posted this 27 days ago, get back to that mindset dude and be strong. Fuck everyone else, focus on yourself.

So....you're 24, struggling with school, and you've gained some weight.
I know you're in Europe, but you've just described about 90% of young adults in the United States. No reason to kill yourself.
Everyone has times in their lives when they feel like they're not making progress. We all get to a point where we stop and wonder what the heck we've done with our lives. It's part of life.
One thing you have to ask yourself is what success actually is. Another thing is why are you putting a limit on when you can achieve it? Are you listening to what society says? Are you listening to what the media is telling you? If so, stop!
I'm 34, and I can't tell you how much I'd pay to go back to being your age. So count your blessings. Instead of dwelling on what's wrong with your life and letting it get you down, use it to motivate you to keep moving forward. Trust me, you have plenty of good years left. And if you're on the mgtow forum, I doubt you have a woman or anything to hold you back.
I'd also tell you that you need Jesus, but I'd probably get attacked for that on here.
Stop focusing so much on school if you feel like you're not making progress. If it's not for you, it's not for you. There are plenty of other options out there, and some of the most successful people in the world never set foot in a university. Step back, think of the things that truly make you happy, and pursue a career in something relating to that. One is only successful if they're happy at the same time.
So no, don't think about killing yourself. Overcome those feelings and become stronger. You're still very young and you have a world of opportunity in front of you. God help you!

Obviously not.
If you think losing a part time job, having 'hard' exams and falling out of an exercise routine is grounds for suicide, you need serious help.
Lots of people have down times and just need a kind word, but you are far beyond that point. Call your local suicide hotline and get serious help. More importantly, take that help. You need it.

Whispered to Tom Cruise in Last Samurai:
"You have too many minds." This applies to everything, not just physical combat. You need to face the whispers in your mind and silence them, focusing solely on your goals. Imagine the whispering of failure and worthlessness does not originate from you, but foreign beings that feed on your dejection. Despise them and focus on being stronger than their whispers.

No you should not kill yourself, seek some help and talk with people. Let them know you are struggeling with alot of stuff at the moment. And remember that everything hard does not come easily you need to work hard and regularly to maintain and keep what you fought hard for to get. Just try to improve yourself and your life little by litte. If you feel fat you can start running just for a short while to build up cardio and burn some calories, also running is great again depression. If you exams are really hard start with the basics, seek help, try to study in a disciplined manner. If you really find that your degree is no longer worth pursuing stop and look for some new goal in life. Friends do not just come knocking on your door, join a club or a social thing (can be anything, from joining a sports team, to a cooking class, to what ever you would like). I know everything seems hard now because the first steps back up are the worsts because every step feels like running a marathon, but once you get moving you will find life, little by little becomes better. Note that you cannot control how time changes you but your actions can help you push you into the right tracks so to speak.
And again, if you really feel so depressed that you really want to kill yourself, please seek some help. Even just go to the hospital if necessary.
Also if you want to PM me feel welcome to, I am not a therapist but I will be willing to give you some advice and support (I'm not every possible moment on reddit tough)

Im 24 and I’m not much more successful than I was 19.
the 24 year old you, is no more required to be successful, then the 19 year old you..
I wanted a degree
for what purpose.. a degree is needed for a specialty.. aside of this, it can prove your dedication, though not much beyond this..
I wanted muscle
do you need excessive muscle, or is this kinda like, i wanted something, though really didn't..
I wanted lots of friends.
for what purpose.. to do things you both like, or just to have..
The past 5 years I’ve been working on these. And at first I was making progress.
progress towards what.. the only thing which matters, is what you want..
My friends are all gone
gone as in, moved away, contact them.. gone as in, weren't your friends to begin with, those aren't friends..
the exams are really hard
if they weren't, everyone would do this..
I’m broke (living at home, I usually pay 300€ rent, but I was fired two months ago from my part time job.
nothing wrong with this..
My recent applications have been all rejected)
this one can be tough.. i can only recommend changing the approach, possibly a smaller business, talking directly to the employers, may help..
I kinda got fat.
nothing wrong with this.. you should, for your own sake, research how/why this is happening to you, if you wish to change..
One or two years ago everything seemed to be going so well.
people accomplishing all of these, aren't necessarily content/happy..
i do recommend you talk to someone professional, to help ease your mind..
from what i can tell, you're seeking validation from others.. frankly, who gives one shit, what they think..
you need to meet the most awesome person, you've never met..
..that person is you!
..and it doesn't matter if you has a degree, is successful, can "lift frames", is broke, lives with family or simply doesn't give a shit, about any of this..
do the things you wish to do, others will follow.. if they don't, who cares.. live the life you want, if others don't like, who cares.. dedicate yourself to the art of accomplishing what you want..
nothing more, nothing less!!
..and stop, just stop looking for that worthless validation you've learned to seek..
you are in there..
..let him out!!

You have tunnel vision comrade.
The world is filled with infinite possibilities.
But life is cruel, brutal, and unfulfilling a lot of the time for a lot of people.
What you need to do is find your mission in life. Dedicate yourself to someone else or some higher idea. You need to know that there is a higher purpose and community that you are a part of.
Simply relying on your own personal success for satisfaction is a lonely, empty, and (as you are seeing now) unfulfilling life.
People suffer through the worst miseries and depravations when they know what their purpose is. What is yours?
Do you know there's a brotherhood out there that believes you are capable of more? That wants to see you motivated and strong?
That's what a lot of us are here for.
Also, if you have depression, get an SSRI. They will restore your mental functioning and decision-making capacity.
