Im so sheltered and i cant relate to anyone in these circles. Ive never been sent to a ward, ive never overdosed, ive never self harmed, ive never done drugs, my parents are fine, ive never been in a relationship, i dont have friends, i never got bullied, i dont have a special interest.
>>80079431no shame in having a good life anon. That's the best case scenario, and you should be thankful for that. These days people compete to see which of them have the "hardest" life because it gives you "validation" and relatability. Everyone is looking for validation. Whether it's from your friends, becoming good at a hobby, you name it. Validation feels good and we all search for it, but getting it from your hardships is a toxic way to get it. Be thankful for your good life and be thankful for your parents. Many people wish they could be in your shoes. Yes, it makes you less relatable to people with hardships, but you'll be more relatable to people with good lives.Keep your head up anon, you're doing just fine>i dont have a special interestNo one is born with one. You just gotta throw spaghetti at a wall and see what sticks. Keep trying different stuff and eventually you'll find something that interests you. Just don't get discouraged if you're not skilled in the beginning, that's a huge road block for some peopleGodspeed anon :)
>>80079581Thank you. I guess i feel kind of in between having a good life and a bad life. i havent finished high school yet even though im 23. i go to a weirdo school and everyone here is either an extremely autistic nerd or someone whos done so much partying and drugs that they dropped out.
That's not being "sheltered", just being normal. Being sent to a ward and overdosing are bottom of the barrel stuff.
>>80079431wtf is happening in your webm?
>>80079581A good life is not defined by the absence of strife. To have a good life, you must overcome obstacles, from within and without, and participate in the Power Process which OP is not doing. His life is a set of golden handcuffs, although he's not even right so it's more like bronze handcuffs, he's trapped in the grind of a middle class existence and all his problems are presented by things he can't face head on.
>>80079683>i havent finished high school yet even though im 23hey man same here. 22 and in my second year, gonna graduate at 25. I too sometimes feel like the odd one out because most people (at least where I live) go to uni straight outta high school. Just know that there are tons of us and you can do uni at any time of your life. It's more normal than it seems>i go to a weirdo schoolkek, well maybe you can transfer i guess but you're there for the degree, not the people.
>>80079431same here honestlya lot of these people think being not a normalfag just means being as big of a fuck up as possible
>>80079805I agree to an extent. I think >>80079695 makes a good point here, that the stuff he hasn't done is "bottom of the barrel stuff" and it's best to stay away from that. Strife will come for everyone but not all strife is good, some are just destructive. When I meant "good lives", I meant those who went through normal adversities and not those who became druggies, were abused, self-harmed, sent to a ward, etc.
what a boring thread i didnt read a single postanyway, have a good one i wish everyone the best
