If You Feel Stuck in Life, Start Here…

You’ve Probably Tried This Already

I’ve spent an awful lot of time consuming “self-help” information throughout my life.

I even jumped headfirst into every psych-related class I could find the first time I went to college, and I loved every second of it.

One of my favorite books at the time was Bus 9 to Paradise (which is basically some guy’s gratitude journal).

A lot of this stuff is interesting.

But a lot of it ultimately feels like bullshit.

Am I wrong?

The Loop (and Why It Doesn’t Break)

So, a lot of people do this.

You read, you experiment, you feel no different. And the cycle continues.

You end up feeling run down, pissed off, depressed, anxious, hedonistic… And then you feel pretty good, confident, content… And then… the cycle continues.

We don’t need more noise – we need direction.

What We’re Actually Doing Here

After my regularly scheduled “Where I’m At” post next week, I’m going to start digging into this.

Not surface-level fixes. Not pretty routines.

The real stuff.

We’re going to look at the darker corners – depression, anxiety, grief, trauma – and the ways we cope with them (not all helpful, not all harmless).

From having tea (or a beer) with your shadows & demons, to things like mindful (Epicurean) hedonism and tantric philosophy…

This is about figuring out what actually helps – and what just keeps you stuck.

I promise it’ll be an interesting journey!

Start Here

If you feel stuck, stick around – I have a lot of thoughts 😜

Pick a starting point. Don’t stay stuck.
