So, i'm not really sure what to do or say at this point but as the title states, i'm currently in a rut that I can't seem to get out of. Some background, my name is Mostafa, i'm 22 years old and currently live in Egypt (I know, pretty random). I don't want to turn this into a sob story but right now, I don't know where else to go. I came across become a man via TRP and it's been good to me. My father hasn't been around for the majority of my life, so a lot of life lessons about becoming a man, I had to learn for myself. I just got out of a 5 year, abusive relationship inwhich I believe I developed a form of stockholm syndrome. Not to mention that I also just left my job and as of right now, i'm slowly becoming a waste of space. All I want to do is sleep, the urge of interacting with other people has fled and any ounce of motivation that i've had, has also flown away. There's also a lot of stuff going on that slowly can eat away at a person that I wont get into. I want to be strong again, I want to be interesting again but I don't know where to start. What books to read, what to work on and how to work on it. I'm here turning to you, reddit for help because with how things are, i'm not quite sure how much deeper i'll fall into this pit without guidance.

The trip to Rome starts with the first step. Take a step towards the direction you want to go. Find some books you want to read. Do an exercise. Find some tools to do exercises with. Talk to a person. Talk to girls. Every day have a step towards the right direction. Look at your goals. Write them down. Imagine them as vividly as you can. Don't worry about not doing exactly the right thing. You will have plenty of time to re-adjust. Just start doing.

Find your pain. Dig down and figure out what you lack most in your life. Find out what you crave the most. Find out what makes you most miserable.

From there, take the responsibility for resolving the situation yourself. Do the work, climb the mountain, go at it with realism and determination.

The key is to make slow, but steady long term progression and eventually cure yourself from that deep pain. This is your test. If you pass this test, you know you will be able of overcoming whatever pain it is life throws at you.

Good luck.

You can kill a man, but you can't kill an idea.
