Memes that are too meirl for /c/meirl.
Rules:
-
Respect the community. If you're not into self-deprecating/dark/suicidal humor then this place isn't for you. Kindly just block and move on. This is just how some of us cope.
-
Respect one another.
-
All titles must begin with 2meirl4meirl. This is for multiple reasons. One is just so you can be lazy with titles but another is so people who aren't into this kind of humor can avoid it.
-
Otherwise just the general no bigotry, no dickishness, no spam, no malice, etc stuff.
Sidebar will be updated when I feel like and considering I'm Sadboi extraordinaire we'll see when that will be.

You're correct. Anxiety about failing a test motivates students to study. Anxiety about losing your job motivates employs to work hard. It's not the best motivation, but it is important. If people had no anxiety about failing, they wouldn't work as hard to succeed.
While I find it hard to relate to your examples, the basis of what I meant is the same.
It is important that you know when you need to change the status quo. And in the current society, it is pretty easy to fall in a non-optimal comfort zone, where you are destroying yourself by the day. And even though you know it, you might not want to take the risk of destabilising your situation.
Here, anxiety will help you take the leap and as long as you don't make worse mistakes, you might find yourself in a better place.
