Long Time Lurker/Reader first time poster. I Don't know where to begin so im going to tell it best as is. Perhaps i can get advice to change for the better.

Im not looking for sympathy,just advice so please bear with me.

Im 22 and im just in this lifestlye slump it seems. Probably from lack of motivation, low drive, low self esteem and a general feeling of depression being depressed all the time which has been a problem for me since i was 16, and i have been unable to change things around for the better. Its like i want to,the drive and need and want to change is there,but i am unable too for some reason. Perhaps lack of confidence, poor social skills, etc. This is all aspects of life. Women,school, moving ahead etc. My mind is just always bogged down with negative thoughts/stuff all the time. I know the change must come from within, i need to take the steps to make it happen. Im not a virgin, but havent had sex or any kind of relations etc in well over a year.why this i dont know exactly, but it does have me concerned. But i am concerened about alot in my life. Im not at the level where i want to be, where i can look in the mirror and be happy with the person i see. I was basically a late bloomer. So yeah.thats where im coming from. I have no game really, and want to turn that around. When you are lazy,and unmotivated,low self esteem,it can be hard to turn things around.the last few years havent been the most pleasant times for me. so i think thats a good start to where im going.i know.your thinking afc etc.i just, i just somewhere in my own social development or whatever never learned or picked up on the skills to attract girls.i have looked at porn alot over the years,so that may have been a factor,plus being the weird kid growing up probably didnt help either in some ways.i want to change for the better.i am concerned about my own future.i mean,im exactly the "nice guy". amd im not even really the "bad boy".not that im in between.its like some sort of possible neutral personality thing.now on the bright side.....

theres this girl i met at work. and,well,shes,not to sound like im putting her on the pedestal,but shes awesome.shes i would say an 8,very sweet,pleasant demeanor about her,even if she is a little ditzy. I talk to her,and everything is very natural.Ideally,i would like to get her alone and well,you know. But the downside is she has a bf,and from what i see,isnt too happy with him it seems. And of course,i am in the dreaded freind zone. I am definitley not her emotional tampon though and i dont kiss up to her or kiss her ass or suplicate in any way.so there you go.I look forward to talking with all of you as time goes on.

Join a gym and start working out. If you do this and get into the habbit of working out i promise you will start feeling better about yourself, mentally and physically. If you can do this it will be the new beginning of your life that you are looking for.

Honestly don't even worry about girls right now its not a big deal. Work on self improvment and you can turn your life around.

Once you do this and feel good about yourself you will be able to get this girl.... but only then will you be able to do that.

The only piece of advice I was going to give was for you to start working on ONE thing at a time. Make a list of areas where you want to improve, then work on the first one. When you feel comfortable with the process, move on to the next one.

I would recommend working out though. Its like a drug but a healthy one.

So, I was feeling this way last year. Really groggy and useless. I felt like my flaws were too big for anyone to overcome and actually see me as a good person. Really self-conscious about my faults. Trying to get women in the middle of a slump is really difficult. I would almost not recommend it. I'd say work on you first.

Once I focused my attention on working out, work, school, learned to play guitar, basically my own sh*t, everything else came into play.

Also, this might sound lame but, one of the last things I did that I think really pulled me out of this slump was fasting. I fasted for 10 days and felt incredible during and afterwards. Its like you're just ridding yourself of all the toxins and stuff. Plus, women are always amazed when I bring it up. Like I'm f*king ghandi or something.

I mean,thats all good advice and all,but what about when you lack motivation,or are procrastinating,or it feels like,and always feels like everyone else is ahead of you,or you always feel left out,out of place? Well,you say about not worrying about girls,but what about when you go months or even years without seeing or getting anyone,yet everyone else has the chicks panties in a twist? I cant help but feel like wtf have I been doing wrong? As for working out,I just cant get over that I should have started sooner. What about if you just cannot feel good about anything? Or the times you do are very little?
