Sad situation. At my lowest point. Need advice.

I have a confession to make. I haven’t spoken to a woman in 4 years. Not family members or people who have to talk to you because it’s their job, but women in classes or like casually approaching someone. I did do it a couple times as a freshman, and made a couple friends but haven’t spoken to them since. Now that I’m about to graduate I feel like I’ve missed out on a lot.

I also have bad social anxiety and low self esteem which doesn’t help either. This has taken a toll on my mental health and affected every area of my life, grades, friendships and even physically. My gpa is a 1.9, barely enough to graduate. I cut off all my friends. And i developed an eating disorder and became fat as well. I tried going to the gym but due to the unhealthy diet I didn’t see any progress.

I don’t know what to do anymore. I’m going to be jobless after graduation as well. I’m at my lowest point right now. I just eat unhealthy food and sit in my room all day. I dont even want to leave my house because im so fat and unattractive. I don’t want to do this anymore. I need some real advice.

Also forgive me for my username, that is not me anymore. My hormones have tanked after becoming fat. I would change my username to unhappy man if I could.

Missed UTMCIP deadline, any advice?

So I missed the UTMCIP application deadline, it was July 3rd, I had no idea what the date was until today. Does this mean that I will never be able to go to UTMCIP at all? is it worth emailing to see if I can submit an application? and to those who are in UTMCIP, is it even a big deal or will I be fine without it? (specifically for CS internships)

UTM vs WUT (Warsaw university of technology)

My goal is to get into medical robotics and eventually build my own business. I am more software biased. However, I am trying to learn mechanical and electrical in the background. Is UTM computer science or WUT robotics and automation or WUT mechatronics better? Disregarding where I want to study or price, just in terms of a better long term choice, opportunity and reputation.

Claude prompt for UTM enrollment because ACORN's timetable builder is painful

ACORN's builder just shows you conflicts, it doesn't actually help you optimize anything.

so i made a Claude prompt. you screenshot your course sections from ACORN, attach them, and it asks you a few quick questions (commute days, time preferences, max hours per day) then builds your full weekly timetable with a visual grid.

it also knows UTM-specific stuff — ZZTBA sections are for midterms so it ignores those conflicts, and it won't mix TUT/PRA sections from different LEC sections.

click here for prompt

enrolment's coming up so figured i'd share. lmk if anything's off with the prompt

Capitalism is ruining the lives of young people. We have no employment, no affordable food, housing, transit or future.

If you want to fight the system, you cannot do it alone.

You must get organized!
