The only thing that still brings me joy is the past. Yet even that is quickly fading away. As cliche as it sounds modern culture is so soulless and unpleasant.How do I cope? I feel like I'm stuck in a washed game I don't want to continue playing anymore.
>>83844510>How do I cope?turn to friends, family, neighbors. perfect time to disconnect from mass media dictate
>>83844510>How do I cope?I take hardcore drugs to cope and hope for a deus ex machina that will eternally set us back to the 00's
>>83844520all my friends and family were actually abusive assholes who just kept me around to treat me like an emotional punching bag
>>83844765well i can see now how past brings you joy
>>83844510>The only thing that still brings me joy is the past.Everyone feels that to an extent with their youth because they felt things much stronger. Things were new. Experiences were meant to be tried. Responsibilities were lower. Free time was abundant. People were easier to meet.>Yet even that is quickly fading away. As cliche as it sounds modern culture is so soulless and unpleasant.Yeah it is. You need to let go of your expectations and enjoy new things. Enjoy them alone if you have to.>How do I cope? I feel like I'm stuck in a washed game I don't want to continue playing anymore.I took up new hobbies. New Vidya sucks, internet went to shit, bars and clubs suck. Don't be afraid to do stuff alone is the first step.>I take pictures of stuff I think looks cool now>I explore nature trails>I walk into random places if I see something is going on just to see whats going on. If it's not for me I leave.>I write stories and play with new tech >I read and go to book shops>I don't use social media.>I look for interesting music I never heard of>I stopped caring about what is popular>I go to historical tours>I explored parts of the city outside where I normally go.>I take on home projects.You will never get back the old feeling. However you can have nostalgia moments. I went to some concerts of bands that only I care about now a days, and yeah, it was pretty nice. I played an old game, and yeah it gave me the warm fuzzies. Nostalgia is fine, but if you stay chasing the same high all the time it just becomes an addiction. >>83844538Drugs and alcohol stop being fun the older you get.
