What has worked for you in the past for getting out of a full-spectrum life rut?
    #18733470 - 08/20/13 06:17 PM (10 years, 6 months ago)

First steps?

Things that made a big difference?

Inspirational stories/outcomes?

Change in diet- eating more fresh fruits and vegetables, less meats and starches
Regular exercise- something in a group setting like martial arts works well for me
Regular meditation

Sobriety and a cross-country move worked very well for me.

I've been wondering if I need to cash out all my shit and just start a new life somewhere.

Too much debt and not enough resources though. :feelssadman:

We're a largely strung-out (or strung-out in the past) hallucinogen forum and that's all we can come up with?

Thanks for those who did post though.

I don't know man, this is a tough one. Everybody deals with these ruts in differing ways. But I'd guess that the most effective way would be to change things up. Get out, too. Sitting inside pondering your rut is only going to make things worse.

THIS THIS THIS THIS THIS.

I find myself not in the best social position right now either though.

I've been making new friends through work, but so far all that's led to is hanging out with a 17 and 18 year old who've now inducted me into their "gang" (healthy friendships already, yay!) and also (with some overlap) the local underground racing scene, but I'm not enough of a gearhead to really click with these types for like friendship purposes I think.

I've been debating about making an advice thread specific to making more friends in my very disorienting living situation. I might go ahead and do that actually cause this really is going to be a deciding factor in getting me healthy and happy again.

Great input as always, Niffdawg!

Go out into the desert, eat a bunch of peyote and find yourself.

You can always interchange desert with jungle and peyote with  ayahuasca

IDK if this is a common thing but I've even noticed I will put "needing to trip about it" as one more thing in between me and actually doing something.

one of the first things was I started reading a lot. my issues were more self-oriented so I read a lot of self help books. then i went trended more towards sobriety and just focused on trying to help myself get better. I got into a college and focused on school, which helped. I think it helped my focus more, and helped me learn to think critically.

so that, and i had a hobby, guitar, that really helped me get my mind off of things.

About a year and a half to two years ago I was extremely depressed. These days I'm happy as shit.

What has helped me? I don't know, nothing specific. Life just keeps happening. Learning, exploring, thinking, just getting wiser with time levels out the world perspective.

I can totally relate to that. I used to always say things like "I'll start doing so and so but first I need to take a trip to motivate myself"

It's all about putting words into action. I find it is best to not try to make large sweeping changes all at once, start small.

You've also done a lot of acid. A lot of acid, mang. Glad things are more in your favor though!

I think if I'd gone back to my university and was living in the dorms, it would almost pull me towards being back on track. The self help books are a great idea, and thanks for reminding me I need to get back on track to being a guitar/metal god...

hey man if you play, keep playing. it is one of the most cathartic things i can do for myself. I am stoked right now cause my house is gonna be empty in 20 minutes or so, and im gonna fire up my old amp and just jam out for a bit with the volume up.

its gonna be so good!!!

Not necessarily, but you'll bring them if you haven't resolved them already (not that this was a realistic option for me anyway heh).

Valid point man.
