Time for a forklift upgrade. A proven and effective way to address "outdated technologies".
Get yourself something nice.
Never stays nice, but at least you get the shiny for a bit.
The popular thinking is "as without, so within". Because if everything looks perfect, one's inner life will become so, too. This drives the obsession with beauty, fashion, pop culture and ostentatious materialism.
Not the case.
Otherwise all these "successful" people wouldn't turn self-destructive and/or suicidal, now, would they?
Actually, it's "as within, so without". That is to say, what is inside will eventually manifest in one's appearance. Thus why the RBF was such a big thing. You almost certainly got exactly what it said on the tin (personal experience). Truth in advertising.
So the gone-to-pot exterior (in the absence of chronic disease, old age or similar) is the physical manifestation of the true self over time.
Rip and replace.

Fair enough.
Perception makes its own reality. And obviously, you know what a meth head sounds like - voice of experience, no?
You, on the other hand, sound like a partial lobotomy. Too bad they didn't finish the job.
Considering I've never touched narcotics in my life, which one of us is closer to the factual truth, do you think?
