Why are people miserable

[Deleted]

Main reason for people today to be miserable seems to be a lack of purpose.

The reason they d the things they don't like is that people in general don't like to change, don't like to go outside of their comfort zone and because people don't take action.

because there is no reason to be happy.

because there is no reason to be happy.

Same could be said about being miserable

[breadisfunny]

Same could be said about being miserable

no because there is plenty of reasons to be miserable.

Same could be said for being happy.. it’s a choice

"Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.”

Why do people do stuff they hate?

I don't have the money to do anything worthwhile, so I do nothing worthwhile.

If could tell my younger self one thing it would be that money is far more important than people in this world, so make sure you get a stash of it.

For me Breathing is automatic, being happy is impossible.

Indeed, people keep saying be thankful for what you have ... and those people are happy because they have something to start with.

I don't have the money to do anything worth while

So make more money. Make solutions not excuses.

[schwarzkopf]

So make more money

Pretty straight forward error in your response:

1. Make more money is in the set of 'anything worthwhile'
2. I don't have the money to do 'anything worthwhile'.
1 and 2 -> I don't have the money to make more money.

Congrats on feeling and being a superior human comparing to others.

Because white people keep them down in the dirt.

....But I'M a white person.

Don't make racist claims you can't back up.

patriarchal society pressuring people to be who they are not.

... When I answered you, I ensured what I said wasn't garbage

You blame your misery on "patriarchy" == what you say is garbage

I have no idea what that means but I’m pretty sure to start making
Extra money on the side it just requires time and effort.

Your first $100,000 just requires time and effort

Scaling higher than that requires money and a team.

I believe that’s 1000% false, what you mentioned is learned helplessness

I believe that if you change your mindset we can have most the things we want.

If you work hard enough, meet the right people and are charismatic enough. You can pretty much do anything.


Life is a game.

Keep drinking that capitalist kool aid

Plenty of people have everything and can do anything but are still miserable, how does that work?

[3DTyrant]

You nailed it but I think the fact that it’s ingrained in people that.

To be successful you need to:

Go to school
Get married
Buy a house
Have kids.

Etc

When there are many ideas of success and many paths to get there..

I dropped out of college a few times but I am more “successful “ than my friends who have masters degrees and destroyed by debt

I'm calling bullshit on the bold parts. Why does one need to be married or have kids to be successful?

Did you read it?

I said there are many ways to be successful vs having the linear path I mentioned.

Have a little faith in Juffo-Wup.

Darkness is Void; Juffo-Wup is light.

Juffo-Wup is the power of life... hot warmth in the cold Void. It flows through all things, binding them together, making them one. You are Non-Juffo-Wup, you cannot understand.
