Whatever thing I think I want in the moment never makes me happy when I actually get it. I was desperate for a job, then I got it, now I’m just as miserable as before. I was desperate for sex, then I got it, then I realized it doesn’t make me happy. Then it was friendship, and like always, friends didn’t make me happy. I thought maybe some new gadget or video game or whatever would make me happy, they never did.

My brain is either fucked or everyone else is lying about their experiences, but I hate my fucking life. Life never gets better. There is nothing to live for.

It's because those things don't deliver you from your state as a wageslave. The only attainment that will ease your dissatisfaction is total financial freedom.

Value the good, the true, and the beautiful above all else.

Esteem strength. Be disgusted by weakness, especially in yourself.

Mock vice and extol virtue.

Be the father to your children that you always longed for. Be the son that you would want to have.

Do not waste your vital energy on hedonism rather than sustaining or creating life.

Do not pollute your mind and body with poison.

Do not fetishize the base, degenerative, dysgenic, brutal, and ugly. Guard your senses.

Love deeply enough to experience true hatred. Be extreme with your moderation in all things.

Do not confound the meanings of tolerance and acquiescence. Let your altruism be a manifestation of strength rather than pathology.

Pain is the penultimate didact, embrace it with stoicism. It is the furnace of the forge.

Give your best effort in everything no matter how menial the task. There are no menial tasks.

The fear of failure will stop you from ever succeeding. The ego is so terrified of embarrassment that it will sacrifice achievement.

Persistence after you fail is the true measure of your character. Undaunted persistence is the driver of success.

Be self-disciplined in mind, body, and spirit, interdependent disciplines.

Narcissism is the antithesis of self-respect. The ego is the seat of fear and must be broken to the will.

Recognize, own, and learn from your mistakes. Do not let the ego hinder self-improvement; a flaw is a flaw whether pointed out by friend or foe.

Attention to detail is most important for the tasks that you dislike.

Work diligently on self-improvement. Live outside of your comfort zone permanently.

Master yourself and overcome your limitations, overwhelmingly, merely perceptions, not reality.

Always set goals of increasing difficulty, but never have expectations.

Strive for transcendence. The ego is broken by the will; the will must submit to the sublime and ineffable order, becoming a vessel of the divine and a wellspring of happiness.

the answer is that you have depression, congratulations. now go drink some Kefir, vitamins, exercise, meditate, and take some dmt/psilocybin so you stop bumming everyone out with these threads.

>The only attainment that will ease your dissatisfaction is total financial freedom.
Tell that to those lottery winners that fucked themselves. Financial freedom does not exist. With more $$$ comes greater/heavier responsibility, and more stress for most, as they are unable to handle the burden of it and get caught up in a cycle of believing more will make it better.
True happiness is attaining a state of fuck-it-all in an unreckless manner, then holding it long term. Reflect on what really matters, and don't sweat the small things that are out of your control. Understand what you can control and command it.
All of that can unironically be acheived through challenging yourself doing something you enjoy, and I don't mean a vidya game challenge....I mean a real mental and/or physical challenge, or something that incorporates both.

Why not take a vow of poverty? It'd be like playing the game from level 1 with only a fraction of your former OP power.

>But life would get drastically hard

Hedonic treadmill bro. The bottleneck events that our ancestors endured informed them of these 2 things
1. Pain may be painful but it keeps you alive.
2. The luxury of consumptive pleasure is maladaptive to general survival

If you don't put your body and soul through pain, you'll never feel that grand distance between your lows and highs; Those exhilarating moments where the pleasure and contentment burst forth and a moment in eternity is recorded.

Your brain isn't fucked. It's meant to survive horrific shit, not rely on unstable.unsustainable fads. In geologic time, human history is a fucking 3rd rate boy band that MTV played only once back in 1997.

And how old are you? Life does get better. At least if you do deadlifts. You start to appreciate the seductive art of doing nothing but sitting in a park taking it all in. You realize how much mental noise you jammed your head with. You start to let your head play mental games instead of chasing an ever-more frustrating hedonic mill.

Internal voice isn't thought. It's the reflection of thought. As I said, instead of jamming your brain with noise, you can melt into the quiet situation with the understanding that cognition is happening regardless of whether the internal voice is present. Why not let the part that does the thinking focus on the thinking? Never understood sport fishing until recently. The freedom to do nothing. After a lifetime in a surreal media environment where man is torn between the call to "holy" actions and the call to a million other causes while being irritated with radioactive AIDS. Fuck that shit.

When I'm old, the most valuable possessions will be memories of my loved ones. It puts things in perspective. The Garden of Earthly Pleasures seems incredibly boring in comparison. You can drink those moments like wine.

Can I spend some of your money with you?
On a serious note, have you ever tried serving others? Not because it's a nice thing to do inherently, but you really do get a sense of how good life is. Go volunteer at a ronald McDonald's house or something if you want to see reality.
