Well I moved back home with the parents (different side of the country tho) so it'll just be nice to be on my own again. I moved out at 17 so its been an adjustment :cornlol:

My cousin is bringing all his studio gear too though, so we'll be able to get projects done faster, instead of working on them on weekends. And I'll learn on my bass guitar quicker since I can play with someone in the house.

Stop looking at porn, it's fucking me up and I can feel it.

Put in the work to finish the IB this year so I can move on with my life. In a serious danger zone, complete bottom grade in physics and maths and there's less than two months til our exams. I also haven't applied to unis yet. Fuck.

haha not that much tbh. Every 2-3 days prolly.

But the feeling when I interact with/see actual girls in real life now has changed so much. You get a weird relationship with sexuality that's not enjoyable. Just weird and compulsive.

Do you worry that porn is setting unrealistic ideas as to what to expect from a woman?

I'd suggest to try going #NoFap for a week or two, see how it goes for you.

Gonna use this thread to remind me frequently what I need to do:

- Start eating in the morning. It's like since '07 that i don't eat anymore in the morning (only in the weekends), but there's no reason for not doing it. I've like an hour where i do nothing in the morning, so it's better to spend that timelapse on getting some energy.
- And also start waking up earlier on my free days, 'cause 11am isn't the right hour to wake up. Even in the weekends.
- Getting my driver license is also a good idea.
- And just start do whatever i want. I'm having the tendency to impose myself things that are useless in the end. But then again, my routine is fucked, so maybe it's better to do such things because my proscanating gonna be worser.
- Stop whining about school (and other things) and wait till the end of June to take steps when it comes to my graduation.
- Meet some new ppl is also a good thing, 'cause ppl that i befriended now are rather spending time with their gf's instead with their friends.
- And get out of Babylon and move into the city.
- My schedule should also get an upgrade to a more realistic one, 'cause this shit isn't reasonable anymore.

Something like that I guess. Not intellectually of course, I don't actually expect women to look all weird and porny. Maybe my brain does though. I wonder sometimes if that porn shit fries your reward system in general too, but I'm para about losing touch with strong sensations in general so who knows.

I've done nofap before for about 20 days and it felt great but it was a while back b2b possible placebo.

Breakfast is the most important meal, always been a firm believer of that. how many hours sleep do you get usually? Assuming 90min sleep cycles 7.5 or 9 would be ideal. 6 if you could manage on it.

Good points. Do you feel your lack of routine is a core problem to some of what you've mentioned now?

Where do live now in relation to the city, and what do you need to get there?

Never knew this, would have come in useful this year.. typical I find out about it a week before uni is basically done.

I could probably do with a CV considering I'll be graduating soon.

Mostly between 7 or 8 hours, but it's not that i'm always tired. It's more that sleeping long is fucking up my schedule and make my proscanating worser.

It's not that i can blame everything on my lack of routine, but it does have its share in a lot of problems.

I always have to take a bus that doesn't have regular hours and only rides once a day in the morning to the city and twice in the evening back to my place. So it's a hell going to school.

Yeah dont get the no-breakfast crew.

One of my housemates literally seems to just put his coat on and go out the door when he's got an early start, i'd feel like SHITE about 10 mins down the road.

Worth getting up the extra hour or so early to sort yourself out some good eatins
