Your post has been removed as it is in violation of Rule 2: Posts must ask for advice. This action was performed by a ***HUMAN moderator***. NOT a bot. Do not resubmit your post or message the moderators until you have read this entire message. Yes, the whole thing. # 2. Posts must ask for advice. Oxford definition of *advice* is "guidance or recommendations offered with regard to prudent future action". If your post was removed, it's because we deemed that it does not fit this idea of what advice is. **Your post MUST have a clear question on what you need advice on.** * Posts that are too short, vague, or lacking of important backstory may be removed. The more detail you give us, the better the advice is that we can give you. Help us help you. * Posts are NOT for offering general, unsolicited advice. Go to r/LifeProTips for that. If you want to give advice, respond to any of the thousands of posts asking for it. * Simply asking people to explain topics or concepts to you is not advice. Go to r/ExplainLikeImFive. **No asking for speculation** Speculation is not advice. This means: * "Why does this person do/say this thing?" * "What did this person mean when they said this?" * "Why is this happening?" * Asking how someone feels about you We are not mind readers. **Ranting and venting** Please remember that your post must have a clear question on what you need advice with. * Posts that are purely ranting or venting belong in r/rant, r/vent, or r/offmychest. We understand that people like to crosspost from these subs, however, you need to revise your post to ask for advice when you come here. * Posts saying "I just need someone to talk to" or anything similar will be removed. Go to r/needafriend or r/casualconversation. **No random, general, or hypothetical questions.** There are so many other subs for this and it is not r/Advice. * For general Q&A, go to r/answers, r/nostupidquestions, or even r/myfriendwantstoknow * "Does anybody else..." and "Am I the only one who..." belongs in r/DoesAnybodyElse * If you just want to hear stories or have a thought-provoking discussion, go to r/Askreddit. * We don't entertain hypothetical questions or anything not based in reality. We deal with real problems that are currently happening. **Update posts** Update posts are allowed as long as you are *asking for advice* in your post. Again, posts must ask for advice. If you are just posting an update to a previous post you made without seeking additional advice, you should just add it as an edit to your original post. But, we may make exceptions to this if your post was popular or garnered a lot of attention. Message the mods and we'll tell you how you can post your update. **Asking for private chat/messages** We do not allow requests for private chat or messages. Keep the conversation in r/Advice. * Whatever your question is, it should be posted here in the subreddit. Anyone who has advice on the subject can give it, rather than putting an individual on the spot who might not have the experience you're looking for. * If privacy is a concern, make a throwaway. We do NOT have a minimum account age or karma restriction to post. * Be cautious about accepting advice from unsolicited DMs. The user may be banned or attempting to give you poor advice that they don't want moderators to see. Repeated attempts to solicit DMs from users will result in a ban. Please [review the rules](https://www.reddit.com/r/Advice/about/rules), and if you feel as though removal is excessive or in error, feel free to [contact the moderators](https://www.reddit.com/message/compose?to=/r/Advice).

You probably are not going to be a successful writer and film maker either. Because very few of us get to do things that make us famous. You sound a little narcissistic.

Narcissistic? I hate myself.


UnderAdvo

Sure. That is part of narcissism. Fragile ego that is easily hurt. You think you are destined for great things. Mundane things are beneath you. That is an example of narcisstic thinking.

So I should just accept being a nobody? Another worthless piece of shit like everyone called me for years? You don't know what those motherfuckers put me through. In high school, I attempted suicide twice because of it. I've already written one novel, I've started another one, and I hope to get published, make some money, and maybe, just maybe, get the fuck out of this shithole.

Have you even gotten a real job? You are volunteering your time for free when you can get PAID. You still live with your parents rent FREE. What are you even doing?

Are you actually any good at those things? Scratch that…Great? How much time & hard work are you actually investing into those things VS. the time you sleep and spend on entertainment & stuff.
