yes, practice does help when it comes to learning to clear your mind of thought noise.

not this one for some reason, like i said, i use it to unclutter my mind when i'm trying to sleep.
it's not a physical skill/practice, it's a mental one.

Is meditation a skill? Is meditation similar to training your body? Then it can be degraded over time under no use. I'm only interested in meditation if it gives me more benifits. The more time I save the more golden i am

i was more into it when i was still developing and working around my big autism, probably why what i learned from it stuck.
it's what i use to manually unclutter my mind so it is useful.
the practice of clearing your mind and focusing on nothing/serenity is a skill that's practiced and learned, not many people have an actually empty mind.

First thing you can do is start meditating in shorter sessions. But overall You need to start toning down the sources of stimulation in your life. Start switching from unhealthy to healthier forms of stimulation. Try reading more and working towards long term goals. Put away your phone when you are eating, or commuting. Don't bring your phone to the bathroom. Don't get on your phone after you wake up, or before bed. You need to just enjoy the silence and allow your mind to stimulate itself. When you cut off cheap sources of dopamine your brain begins to look for it elsewhere.

I usually eat while watching stuff. I never bring or take out my phone in the bathroom since it's too gross. One thing is being in an environment like school where there isn't much to do other than study. Compare that to being at home and being able to do whatever on your computer even if I try to mentally cut out unhealthy forms of stimulation I will always have that gnawing on my mind and when I don't have much mental energy I just go for it. Monks live in monasteries far away from most others you know

I listen to a lot of varied stuff. I like metal, jazz and most things. I have been listening to a lot of vocaloid growing up so getting into that would be fun. Getting better with a daw would help with that immensely. I'm not sure if I should try out new genres without having made songs in certain genres and becoming atleast semi decent in them.

Towards the end of my second year covid lockdown happened. Lost a lot of friends around that time, became bitter. I couldn't bother dealing with the zoom ordeal. Most of my grades ended up passing the last term, but had to redo one of the subjects. After that I was shuffling around with psych institutions and meetings. Got autism diagnosis. Dropped out maybe 3 different times. My grades were good though, but I'm struggling to manage being with people or going places. It's much easier just being inside my room

I'm 21 and I'm having to sit with a lot of loud 17 yearolds. 80 % of my class are girls, but somehow they are extremely loud. This is the furthest I have gotten without dropping out. I'm not sure what I want to be, all my grades are decent, and I did take a pre uni math exam. I'm waiting to see if I passed on it. I might go electronics engineer route. I used to go to vocational school for electrician things first year and computer/electronics second year. This year is gonna give me the qualification to get into uni.

There aren't really entrance exams you just need the qualified subjects. Which you can take privately twice a year or get them another way. Not sure about the job oppertunities. I might fall back into being a neet after getting my degree. I remember the first time trying to get an internship and I was shaking my phone so badly I almost dropped it while talking on the phone with some woman who worked for the company. I can get into uni next year while taking the math subjects as summer courses. I'm not sure if it's gonna be hard or not. I already know the material a bit. I'm not sure to be honest they hyped this year up. My classmates are failing several subjects somehow, but it's been really easy and casual for me. Then again most of them are gonna become nurses or something and I'm planning on becoming an engineer.

No idea. Honestly see myself drinking myself to death in the future. Kinda just want to make good songs then kill myself. Becoming an engineer is just to pay off debt and maybe not live in a shitty apartment anymore. But idk.

I'm alienated from both sides of my family. Lost all my old friends. My dad is gone and my mom is heavily in debt. My little sister has moved somewhere else and moved on in life. I'm only holding on so I can make songs. If I can't make good songs that would be my main regret.

My sister views me as a failure subhuman bum who is too lazy to get a job. My mom thinks I'm good because I paid off her credit card loans with my neetbux. I also prevented us from becoming homeless twice.

If I were you I would try to get a job to support mom and myself. Your mom needs you and will only need you more and you could always use the extra money. Music production is good but it shouldnt be the only thing keeping you alive. Neeting and having music production as the most important thing you do will burn you out so fast. It needs to be hobby. You can always find more hobbies too. At least get a job that will allow you tons of free time like teaching.

That's why I'm going engineer route since it pays well.

I don't know. I'm pretty tired, so we will see in a few years. Feels like I was doomed from the start
