it depends on how old you are. it's ok to feel bad but don't be depressed for too long. now that you know how the world works, you can become successful.

You cant' judge your mom for her relationship with your dad. Moms have tried to make their boys in their vision for a long time. That's why becoming a man, or mature, is acting the way you want to even if it's antithetical to the way you've been taught. Your mom had good intentions.

I see hating oneself as somewhat common here. However, there's nothing to hate, because you and only you have the power to change.

Read up on the 5 stages of grief. You'll go through all of them, and not necessarily in order always. And just because you pass one up doesn't mean you can't go backwards.

Learn to move towards acceptance. That means learning which things you can't change and accepting that you can't change them. You can't change women. You can't change your parents, your friends, or anyone else. You can only change you. Learn to change you to whoever you can live with.

It is shocking. It's traumatic. It's difficult. But that's life. Read a lot and toughen up. Lift. Meditate. Invest your time in men that are going somewhere in life and you'll find true friendship.

While I am a product of divorce myself; my mother was never poisoning me. My father quite literally is a piece of shit (alcoholic, barely works). I never had a real father figure so I had a rough time. Finding TRP really helped me realize what I want to become, since I never really had a father figure to emulate. I'm 22 by the way. I never felt physically sick, but I can say that at times I thought "what's the point of even trying?" And things along that train of thought. Don't let that get the best of you.

Improve and overcome brother. You'll get there I promise

I'll be honest with you man, you'll have more moments like this along the way. My most depressive moment was realizing the sheer brutality of hypergamy, I won't retell what triggered that but it was pretty dark back then. It gets so much better though, you see everything clear as day, now being BP sounds weird to me. "Dude wtf? You're nagging her because you want her to respond faster? Why on Earth would you think that?" when a year ago I was worse than that guy.

I was blue pilled by mom and system all my life

Now is the day you need to stop blaming others and take control of your life. If you are unhappy now it isn't because of your mom and the system, it's because you aren't taking the steps to improve and get out of your state of being.

Call your dad.

Try journaling on a daily basis. You force yourself to type out least a dozen paragraphs every day. If nothing comes to mind you just type, "I have nothing to say. I have nothing to say." over and over until it flows. It won't take long, you're a smart guy.

Some of the stuff that comes out might shock you. The root of all this anger is probably somewhere where you don't expect it to be. It also could be stifled creativity of some sort.

Finally, self-forgiveness. You need to forgive yourself for the mistakes you've made. That's where all healing begins.
