no extreme optimism, just a clearer view of life and the human expeirence. the existential dread continues but u find other things that make existence worth it. burn your house down, i believe in u
@philip Trevor I disagree. The small, idyllic city I live in is not unlike the one you saw at the end. But I suppose it's hard out there in urban hellholes.
I'm a security officer and two weeks ago they send me outside to do patrol and it rained. It poured hard and I was a bit pissed but it stopped after like 15 minutes and when the rain passed a freaking double rainbow appeared. Never in my life did I feel like when shit hits you hard there is something better later.
Just a curious question. What was the actual hiring process like? I don’t mean details and specifics of an interview. More so, how did you find it and was it anything like just giving a call and asking about positions?
Yep, my 4 year relationship ended 2 days ago. She ended it. Today I realized she never really loved me a respected me as person. Just tried to catch me a tried to remake me into her imagination and something she could control, bitch. And I am happy she ended it, I would never have guts to do it - I was always trying to be the better one, even when relationship was killing me inside. In the end I realized I never knew her, she did full 360 and when I was crying, she was looking at me as thin air... Fuck it... Time to move on and it´s gonna be great boys :) Never been happier in last 2 years... :)
@@SnekSnack Do the right thing next time. Don't have sex before marriage. Then you can truly get to know her without getting co-dependent feelings involved.
@PINKYCULTURE That actually helped me. I work on a lumber yard and i get to lift heavy shit all day and be outside all day. Its hard work but it feels so much better than being at a job like McDonald's
This what it feels like to be almost 23 and finally realizing your self hatred and unhealthy expectations of self and others isn’t your fault but your responsibility to mend and youre more than capable of doing so and the only thing holding you back at this point is your own self doubt
Wait til you hit 30. With no house, no job, no money and no skills. Girlfriend won't touch you because you're a loser, no job will take you because you don't have a decade of prior experience. You will peak in your 20s. Enjoy it now.
Been a bloomer for 3 years now. Getting married at the end of September. Been dieting and losing weight, quit caffeine. Honestly feeling much happier. Good luck to all those Doomers out there. And don't worry, it's just a phase and things will get better.
Fiancee dumbed me because wanted to be alone, had to cancel the wedding, finance went to shit, been on sick vacation for 6 months, old traumas from childhood opened and went to therapy. Ex found a new relationship after 4 months. From bloomer to doomer, my story. Hope I someday crawl out of this shithole.
Noah S. goes to show that sadness and happiness are both just a concept that came from your very brain.. and it's irresponsible to just focus on one just one concept
@ it depends though, some wise people just end up in shitty lives, look at Franz Kafka for example, besides, making mistake and realizing them is a part of becoming wiser
Me too! These videos hurt really bad while I was depressed. Found them while I was getting out of 2 straight years of depression. Life feels nice now. Let’s make it last bro
My tips to ~try~ to become a bloomer: *Reduce your screen time *Do exercise and meditation. The easiest way to combine them, from my experience, is yoga. You can try a beginners class here on Yt! *Call a friend you haven't seen in a long time! *Maybe go to therapy. They got answers. *Find a meaningful hobby that will help you to be constant. For example, playing an instrument or reading a cool book will help! *Try to be present in the moment, and enjoy "meaningless" activities, such as having a walk or cooking. *Cry a f.cking lot. *Take care of something. A pet, or even a small plant(I dont recommend a cactus, they're easily forgettable) Also, lemme tell ya that being a bloomer is kinda subversive against the system. The working class can't liberate itself without a good attitude!!! Hope this gets to help someone!!
It’s also a really big help to find something you want to dedicate yourself to. Gives your life direction and every decision you make becomes simple; will it lead you towards your goal or not? It could be getting stronger, becoming a Navy SEAL, setting a record at a video game, going to school, starting a family, writing a book, anything.
@@kippmiller4139 I'd also advise everyone to work on creating something that will last. Some of what was already mentioned already involves creating something but creation in general gives a certain sense of purpose. Whether it be a garden or a full video game, work on making something.
Ah yes ‘go to gym’ when I go to the gym I feel like shit cuz I’m made of kinects so I come home and do 5 sets of push ups and hate myself for not being able to do 15 after 2 sets.
Recently became a bloomer. Improving my life, got a car, finally going to uni. I realized there isnt much I should be down about. This is beyond true tbh.
TechnicBee it’s probably not for you if you’re even remotely interested in actual self improvement, but nothing worth much comes easy so if that’s what you gotta do, do it. Do something good with it.
@@Xios505 thanks. Im one of those rare female doomers to bloomer. Last three years of my life were possibly the worst I consider. Its always good to have someone positive by your side.
I've come to realize that life is 100% meaningless. That means not that you should give up, but rather you should take the gift of self awareness given to you by the universe and be glad you got it. Humans dont last long in the timespan of the cosmos but that's all the more reason to realize that you should enjoy the fleeting ability to appreciate the beauty of everything around you before you drop back into the celestial dust from which you arose. We get only one life, may as well appreciate the wonder around us while we can
Well, life has it's cycles of up's and down's you can't be happy forever but you be happy again if you work at it. You don't realize how happy you were until you no longer are, same with being sad, you don't know how miserable you were until you are at peace or better, happy again.
Bloomers are nihilstic “optimists”. They recognize the meaningless of everything but still manage to find joy and happiness. Normal Wojaks never had the crippling existential crisis.
I was there buddy, hell I was on death's doorstep. But I kept working and enjoying the company of those I work with. Life will hurt you and give you pain, but you can always refine it into happiness and strength.
@@kimjong504 He's still correct. It's not really his brain that was the original problem. If people are living a natural/healthy life, they would easily produce enough serotonin. Drugs (legal) are merely treating the symptom and they are exploiting these poor people.
@Winston Nips I have been fighting Bipolar all my life and wasn't diagnosed until 28 because I believed that EXACT thing.Careful what you say if you aren't 100% sure,you could keep someone in suffering
Depends. There are people who literally go live in the woods, so stop cultivating this victim mentality. If you so attach to money, what are you doing to achieve your financial goal?

To all people saying it’s all shit and lying to yourself: this is real. I’m (sort of) a bloomer for 2 months now and can tell from my perspective that different things work for different people, but it’s never like you wake up happy one day and everything becomes fine. Becoming a bloomer requires mental and psychological work on thinking of ways to restructure your life and applying them to see if they work. And even after that, it isn’t easy either: you need to constantly rethink your lifestyle, planning and habits to adapt to changes in your mood. Not saying it isn’t fun - at least that’s much better than being unsatisfied with yourself all the time. Anyway, that’s my view on this, and your approach might be different. Good luck everyone, you’re gonna make it!
I'm proud to be a part of this little group of likeminded individuals. Seeing you guys spread some positivity and truth between eachother is truly heartwarming Cheers :)
Did the doomer die and was the bloomer part all in his mind as that final "light at the end of tunnel" pre-death vision? EDIT: So what do i have to support that theory? 1) Doomers desire death as the only way to find release from the pain. 2) Doomers are cursed to live long unhappy lives because death usually claims others. Usually those who have some semblance of a full life are the once claimed by death at an early age. 3) Doomers will surely die when they'll get their lives back on track because life is a bitch - see p.2 So, he probably died during that nightwalk back from work. The holographic thot is probably his mother or love interest (or maybe even god, who knows). Check the bloomer part: he's all by himself in animeland. There is no GF, no beloved pet, no parents - nothing. He is happy just by being with himself and enjoying it as he enjoys the dusk of his life. He finally accepted himself. That's kinda the point of getting out of that hell. You will never find anything to fill that hole you have in youself. You can eat, fuck, play games but they will fly right through the hole in your heart only granting you the illusion of being a full person. Only your inner parts can repair that hole - the ones buried deep under that black beanie.
@@Avo7977 find God, or ask him to find you. See what happens. Not a christian or organized God, just something above. Anything. You may shit yourself though so be ready. Just be reasonable with your requests.
@@Avo7977 not OP but I think this is a good doomer-bloomer transition list lol: therapy, spending more time in nature, reading more, journaling, sam harris podcast, less phone time, healthier eating, lots of water, stretching, exercise, rest (pay more attention to your body and help it out). Try to find meaning. Mindfulness and self care are kinda buzz words but they work and make a lot more sense once you "get" them, they're personal concepts. Vaping CBD can be helpful if it's safe for you to do so. Basically just starting to treat yourself well without worrying about being a dork is a great start.
@KK C You start to see the faint outline of a future of happiness, and the darkness that surrounds your everyday life gets a little bit brighter, day by day.
@@Special_Agent_NSB Greek philosophers were fucking retarded and are the closest thing to modern day robots that's why you relate the them. Good luck 👍
Honestly PoZ, your videos are beyond incredible; they are inspiring. I use to love to visit art museums before my fiancée and I broke up. After that, I kinda stayed away from the arts because it just reminded me of her. Coming to your videos help me to connect to a form of expression that I feel I sense of relatability. Thank you for all of your outstanding content!
Doomer watches ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-41-dLH5YqeU.html, becomes bloomer. Be not sad for what was lost, feel hope that it might come again.
Young-M nah. That’s where it originated but it’s more of a state of mind. like blissful ignorance or the whole “fuck you, I got mine” attitude that baby boomers show toward millennials.

August 13th, 2017. I had just quit my draining retail job and was starting to feel like, after three years in a pretty dark place, I might just be coming out the other side. That was the first day of the rest of my life. I have never looked back. Good luck out there everybody.
I remember watching this when it was first uploaded, I felt such a connection to this and all of Prince of Zimbabwe's content. As much as I was a doomer at 23, I am currently 26, and I am almost at the bloomer arch, lost 80lbs, bought my own place and a nice car, and have a good job with a pension. Just started looking for the right woman, I hope she comes and I can start a new journey with her.
I genuinely feel so much better after watching this video. I am currently in a very fucked up situation (probably just like most of us) and this video just made my day. Thank you so much, I really feel like not killing myself right now
*_I was a doomer the first time I watched this at age 17 until my sister had helped me get a job in a school in 2019. In Sweden, there is something called sommar-fritids which means summer free time where the kids in the school just do a bunch of activities during the summer, watch movies, play football, etc and I got to be the one to take care of the kids and play with them. I went into the job a doomer but then I see how fun these kids are and how adults aren't so different. When I began school again autumn 2019 I basically became the funniest guy in the class. Now it's summer 2020, I'm 18 and my class gave me the bloomer of the class award. It's just a shame This hadn't happened before since this was my last year in the gymnasium(high school). You gotta wake up and realize that people aren't suffering like you. They are living their lives and you should hang out with those kinds of people and not just stay alone at home hoping for somebody to call you. Life is burning with beauty. You gotta take off the veil of darkness and see that people are waiting for you to become a bloomer. Jesus, I really don't know how to stress it._* *_WE LOVE ☛̳𝙔̳𝙊̳𝙐 ̳☚̳! REMEMBER THAT!_*
This is actually an accurate depiction of the turning point in my life. I was suicidally depressed but I eventually overcame it permanently and I was so happy.
Stop focusing on everything that is wrong, and start focusing on what you can do right today. And day by day, keep doing the right thing, and eventually, you'll stop and look, and find yourself in a happier headspace and better all around mood and outlook on life. This is the only way. Start being accountable and doing the right thing every day, and your future will take care of itself and the right opportunities will naturally come your way. God bless.
Huh, and what if there's more things that i consider wrong, than the good things that's really not that much? What if this amount of bad things makes it impossible for me to be happy?
0:27 honestly I don't know how people at Maccas work with that constant beeping noise, it drives me mad when I go into buy something and that's just for a few minuites.
It's like the audio self-advertisements that played all the time in the warehouse I worked in, inbetween the three-track royalty free music playlist on repeat. It drills into your mind.
@@15vertigo oh god. I used to work at a warehouse that had a similar "playlist." I remember after getting another job at another warehouse my coworkers complained it was too quiet, but I just breathed a breath of stale dust-filled air and enjoyed the silence.
This channel has really helped me in the past few months. Thank you for giving me something to remind me that people out there go thought the same stuff and do have a chance of making it out. Last week I think I hit the bloomer mark and this video really made me happy to see it. Thanks Prince.
This motivated me to get out of bed and to do work. Edit: So I forgot about this, And I watched it again. And this time around it motivated me to do my School Work, This is a masterpiece.
until you realise that this 1 obstacle you've overcome is just one of the multiple corner stones of what makes your life hard. Or to say it in gamer talk, goodjob beating level 1.
