i know here on vlr we like to joke around and clown on people for being themselves, but sometimes it’s nice to take a step back and focus on who we are and what we enjoy doing. my main new years resolution was to start writing down important events or feelings in the moment and it’s improved my mental health in a large way already.
use this thread to share something good about your life currently, something you’re looking forward to, or even talk about something that interests you currently :)
I would like to take this opportunity to say that Fatpoipoii is the Sanest indonesian and zeah is the Indonesian boomer.
BackOxyXD Sanest Turk also my LassiAyran business partner. My fav person is meyournightmare and I aspire to be like him. My indian friend tanmayy is the Sanest baccha and Nezko is ass (jklol). Vinayak is daddy material and Rainy is Calypso's pinoy maid. Calypso is a Hearthstone card game professional player. UwU onichan arigato kudasai mwah.
Acels is incels, KazeraSG loves jexhos and one day wants to make out with him. Luck and ChedZ are kangaroo and Koala respectively.
something good about my life - Alhamdulillah, Allah has given me the chance to worship him everyday and be thankful and be conscious of Him and His signs. I still have a family who i can support, and they can support me , even after my mistakes, Allah has given them the capacity for mercy and compassion, Alhamdulillah. Allah has given me food and provisions that I can freely consume and not worry about if I will have some tomorrow, He is the ultimate provider which we take for granted. Alhamdulillah
something I'm looking forward to - My life is in Allahs hands(non-figuratively), I have no power to do anything except that which He allows me to have, so everything is from Him whether good or bad, I can put in all the effort but it all comes down to Him, and Allah wants whats best for me. Also looking forward to learning more about the Quran and Hadith and to keep building my bounties in Jannah, In Sha Allah
something that interests me currently - learning more about Islamic History and the favourite 3 generations (the salaf)
quote(Hadith) of the Prophet Muhammad: “Wondrous is the affair of the believer for there is good for him in every matter and this is not the case with anyone except the believer. If he is happy, then he thanks Allah and thus there is good for him, and if he is harmed, then he shows patience and thus there is good for him."
kaesra [#7]im getting my exam results back in four days i hope i do well 😔
You got this! Hope you did well.
I have never played much of Valorant ranked at all and this was the first season ever where I played all placements and got a rank(dia2). And when season changes soon I was thinking of playing more ranked, but we will see. I have always had anxiety of playing ranked and was pretty proud of myself when I managed to play the placements and realized that I'm not that bad.
Apex Legends season changes in week as well and I'm excited of playing different map because I don't like the current one rn.
and outside of gaming I'm continuing exercising and got extra motivation after new year because I was lacking a bit during Christmas. Started doing proper dumbbell exercise on top of cardio (not just doing bicep curls and hammer curls like before, but doing different moves and also targeting more specific areas). Overall really motivated right now.
yeah thats about it end of 2022 and early 2023

even if you do not believe, you can take some virtue from it.
nice thread!
Idk why, but my interest in theoretical physics has been on its peak
Tho I don't get half of the stuff I read, but still I find it interesting and go back to it again
Also a good thing in my life is that after 2 years of not going to college,
I am finally able to meet my friends and hang out with them

Start playing mk11 and GoW.
thebestvaloplayer [#15]i like hating on people its my favorite thing to do these days idk y ik it is a bad thing i hope i change someday :)))
Dw everything will pass, so as your depression.
I changed up my morning routing for the first time in 6 years and so far it's going well. My morning routine is wake up at 6am drink a large glass of orange juice so I'm awake and do some exercise. I do 30 pressups 35 curls with weights and 25 pressups again and increase by 5 every day until the weekend where I take a rest. I started my new routine on Wednesday and I'm finding it quite challenging (haven't done old routine since holidays started) but I'll get used to it.

drinking OJ on an empty stomach is pretty rough no?

academics is fucked up; not much socializing, unattractive, if I went into too much detail I'd make you sad as well but thanks for asking man

i feel you bro..
Delusional_SA_fan [#35]academics is fucked up; not much socializing, unattractive, if I went into too much detail I'd make you sad as well but thanks for asking man
i feel that
for academics maybe its worth to take a lighter courseload. dont be defined by your grades.
socialising is really about leaving your comfort zone and trying to meet people. you could just see if you can make friends with just one more person over a month or something, or at least make conversation!
unattractiveness sucks and i feel that, the best you can do is exercise, i found that it helps me appreciate myself once i kept doing it
Jaffarr [#6]fishing when the ice melts :)
i’ve never gone ice fishing, im probably gonna do a vacation to norway, finland, and sweden after i graduate college and do it then
normal fishing is great though
Mememeister1 [#38]nope it makes me feel awake but I piss a lot more
huh, ive heard that it fucks up ur stomach if u drink it first thing in the morning

i’m not personally religious but i respect the fuck out of people who really believe in their religion and have reasoning to back up the beliefs. i feel nowadays there’s a lot of bad actors looking to make a profit off of peoples beliefs so seeing someone with a love like this for their religion is really beautiful.
thebestvaloplayer [#15]i like hating on people its my favorite thing to do these days idk y ik it is a bad thing i hope i change someday :)))
being aware of your shortcomings is half the battle and i genuinely mean that. instead of focusing on why you feel this way or why it’s bad, focus on where it stems from. i used to hate on people a lot because i was insecure of my appearance, and once i learned to love myself and respect my body my innate jealously started to fade.
archetype [#22]d2 isnt a bad rank
but dont be anxious about playing ranked, its just a game in the end
u should try and get asc 3 bro, d2 is not as respectable of a rank as it used to be tho
once i stopped caring about my rank i went from p1 to asc 3. at the end of the day it’s just a rank and quitting after one loss for the sake of preserving your rank isn’t worth it
Delusional_SA_fan [#21]there are currently zero sources of happiness in my life
that’s okay! life tends to come in waves. a year ago today i felt very unhappy with my life and had no aspirations, but 3 years ago today i felt very happy with my life. finding coping mechanisms to help yourself get through the day is helpful. start by appreciating the little things in life you might tend to take for granted.
Kuuga [#34]Currently in my second year as a student whilst trying to understand my new college that I transferred to. Glad to meet some great people there and I hope to do well for my Bachelors in Computer Science
have fun with that bro, my 2nd year was definitely the hardest for my comp sci major. this year has been a breeze so far

Yeah I don't see Diamond 3(atm) as good and know that if I played more I could definitely get to Ascendant. I'm just bit inconsistent overall and especially during this time of year my hands freeze all the time so kinda hard to play consistently. Copium or not.
but overall I always knew that I have the potential to get to higher ranks in different FPS games, but at the same time I'm constantly thinking that other players are much better. I was thinking that I'm like gold level, but faced immortals and high asc in placements and tbf they weren't that great and I realized I had overrated the level of play in this ranks. I didn't have amazing stats this season, but at the same time I play so little that if I played more I would get better. I just don't want to dissapoint myself or my team, I'm scared of failing. In a way I'm like perfectionist in this sense. Valorant Community Cup gave me a lot of confidence because before that I rarely played and if I did it was always unrated.
Mememeister1 [#38]nope it makes me feel awake but I piss a lot more
Specifically, drinking orange juice on an empty stomach seriously affects the stomach. The amount of vitamin C in orange juice can interact with the acid in the stomach, easily causing ulcers if consumed in large amounts.
Adi69LassiSeller [#27]Start playing mk11 and GoW.
I don't like fighting games and I played GoW 4 and it was good. I don't have PS5 for GoW5 and I watched it on stream anyway so not interested of playing.
AI art has been really affecting my mental health lately. I know it sounds pathetic and "luddite" but I cant help but scared it'll takeover most art jobs in the future since they look absolutely insane and just took seconds to make.
Ive pretty much sacrificed my studies doing art in hope I'll get a decent art job then AI suddenly appear it really make me question my life decision and I really dont wanna let my parents down :(
I dont expect getting good responses from here I just want to get this outta my head.
Also pardon my grammar

Honestly, I'm just happy that I have made it through a really hard period in my life.
A year ago, I was severely depressed, failed out of a military college, forced to move across the country away from my closest friends to live with my homophobic family. Now I am back getting good grades at a different college, I'm in a better place mentally and back in therapy, and have made new friends, and I'm working full time. My happiness comes from knowing how far I have come from those dark times, and it gives me hope that I can continue moving in a positive direction in my future :>
This year, I want to re-strengthen my relationships with my friends that live across the country bc I miss them so fucking much. I also want to become closer with my new friends. Hopefully, conquering my anxiety issues in therapy will help me achieve both of these things.
I hope that every vlr user can find something in their life that makes them happy, no matter how small it is, and focus on it until they have more positive things around them. For a bit, all that kept me going was a strawberry smoothie from Starbucks and Cinnamon twists from Dominos. All that matters is I kept going :> Wish you all a happier 2023

i totally get this, especially when it comes to specific food items to get you through the day. my depression snack for a long time was this 4 pack of frosted sugar cookies at my local grocery store. shit gave me the dopamine boost i needed to get me through the day.
Lifes been real good since my exams...I now find happiness in things that are not even there (no im not scrizophrenic) . I see People’s joys their sillyness their excitements their pains..I truly am seeing beautiful things around me that i didnt notice before...I was gonna write these to my diary(yall should start writing a diary .you will feel better trust :) but here i found your post and i thank you for that.Overall I am grateful to the Almighty for the time that am having and i know i am gonna lose these moments very soon and preparing for the outcome :)
Subreezy [#52]have fun with that bro, my 2nd year was definitely the hardest for my comp sci major. this year has been a breeze so far
yep. glad to cherish every moment with people like you. <3

Netero [#86]you get the flair ultras?
kkkkkkkk
yeah theyre 2 for 30, I swap between banana, grape, and mint
My GPA is not good but not bad either, however it isn't enough for a credit transfer so I am trying to get them up in this upcoming semester.
Mentally in a good place, but there are those days I wonder what I could have done differently for my studies.
Other than that, learning about dropshipping and planning to open a store or two. Planning to get a job for a source of income, been watching anime, planning a surprise for my GF's birthday, and waiting for VCT to start again so there'll be news to cover and also watch games as a fan.
