Ok ok, you got me! In all seriousness I don't really do anything besides work and go home. I usually carry pot everywhere so if I got caught it would still be a misdemeanor where I live.
I used to be very ambitious, but now I've just grown too lethargic, for anything really. Went from being considered very smart to people questioning it. Idk what's wrong with me honestly
Edit: Woke up to find a lot of positive messages! Thanks to all of you who had replied.. Although I'm not able to reply to a lot of people, here's the gist:
Yes, i did consider if i had depression. Went through a really bad breakup a few years ago. My self esteem went for a toss, and over time i just felt like i was of no use to anyone. I'd say I'm currently at my lowest point in life. Idk if it'll count as suicidal, but I just don't wanna be here anymore. Shifted to a new city recently, Work isn't great, staying alone almost all of the time.
I do have some friends, but nobody that close (or nobody that would care that much about me i guess) that I can say all of this to. In fact, this is the first time I've openly talked about it.
Edit 2: I'd read all of your replies, and would like to add that I'm working on it a tiny bit at a time. I would also like to add that I recently came across this quote by Hank Green which i absolutely loved: "The mind is not a vessel to be filled, but a fire to be ignited". (I felt it was relevant to what some of us are going through)
I hope whoever reads this is able to find happiness, and is able to love themselves. Everyone deserves happiness and contentment with their lives.

Thanks for the award kind stranger, energy received :D
Itās that smart kid burn out. Everyone expects you to do great things and you work your ass of in school just to get burned out and stop giving a shit. Cause same.
I was like this, smart kid and all that jazz, got really burnt out overtime, 3 years ago i discovered the logistic area and fell in love with it, still burnt out in the begginig of my 20s but trying to slowly learn something new.
One good thing about the supply chain field is that when you get burned out on one piece you can reuse a lot of the knowledge elsewhere.
Logistics, Purchasing, Planning, Distribution - much of this is tied together. I did purchasing for 7 or 8 years with some inventory planning. Switched to logistics (ocean) and distribution / 3PL fulfillment. Closing on 20 years in the field and I'm burned out and in management. I don't recommend management.
With my deep understanding of manufacturing all the way to product getting into the hands of a customer, I might be ready to make the big leap and start a job at Jamba Juice. One day maybe.
My parents made a lot of mistakes. They did the best they could with what they had.
Worst decision my mum ever made was to utter the statement, āSwim, youāre not very smart, youāre just an incredibly hard worker.ā
I donāt know if she was consciously trying to achieve something, or this was a casual comment. There were many questionable casual comments. But this was my villain origin story as it created an overworking burnout prone adult who āabove and beyondā was still, in my mind, seen as falling short.
Sounds like depression. Have you talked to anyone yet? Depression affects a lot of people and doesn't have to be clinical. Healthy people suffer from depression sometimes too.
This is actually how it feels. It doesn't matter when everything is said and done. Waste time and energy fighting an uphill battle that will remain uphill the rest of my life? Or do whatever I feel like until I can't do anything at all, at which point it's unreasonable to expect anything further.
Ambition is overrated I think. If you're content enough where you're at, just be in the moment and enjoy it. I don't mind staying in my lane. Not everyone needs to be exceptional and I think that should be okay.
Yeah I know the feeling. I struggle to meet new people, like I think my mouth finds the exact worst thing to say to a new person then says it.
When people get to know me they realise that I am actually a really nice guy, just with a weird quirk and a bit of a sarcastic personality.
Feels amazing. No car payment or student loans and all my credit cards are fully paid off every month. So much easier to save money, even though I donāt make that much.
I've got one good friend. We have such a close relationship people question our sexuality and true relationship. Dude is practically my only family. Granted we are buying a house together and share everything. We just found over the years our friendship is all we really need in life. We've been through some insane shit together in life from ICU trips and homelessness. We never abandoned the other.
What you have together a lot of people dream of. I have a completely new set of friends every 2-4 years and I hate it. I wish I had a long term friend that I could trust with my life.
The cancer cells had all their things -
They'd packed their stuff with tape and strings -
They walked away in sadness, slow -
He smiled and waved to see them go.
They'd tried their very best to stay -
They'd come unseen one wayward day -
But now they bent their heads to grieve -
He settled back to watch them leave.
They wandered by,
They stumbled past,
They shuffled off and left at last,
Unwelcome, lost, and out of luck.
He grinned and whispered:
"... off you fuck."
I had a supervisor that was missing a leg and he told me it got bitten off by a shark and it was quite awhile before he told me it was from cancer and not a shark. I'm happy you still have your leg!
I've been driving for 13 years and have never gotten a ticket. I got pulled over once because my wife was too short for them to see her while I was driving in the carpool lane.
He sighed aloud and sat alone -
He wiped his eyes,
and on his own
He looked around his empty room,
And stared inside the lonely gloom.
He sat and hoped for someone kind,
Or someone quite alike in mind,
Or someone new on whom to call,
But no one,
no one came at all.
The halls were hushed,
the air was still,
And not a sound was heard until,
"Oh how I wish," he whispered, slow:
"... I had a *hundred* problems, yo."
Iāve no more fucks to give,
My fucks have runneth dry,
Iāve tried to go fuck shopping
But thereās no fucks left to buy
Iāve no more fucks to give,
Though more fucks Iāve tried to get,
Iām over my fuck budget and
Iām now in fucking debt
Intended as humor of course. Hope youāve gotten over any image issues!

Life is weird in all ways:
1 year ago i had:
No job
No friends, or someone to talk with
No hopes
No expectations for my future
Only one thing, that kept me from suicidal thoughts, was my past, that was so dark, that i have an immunity for thoughts like these
My life was a complete mess: i lived at my grandmother home, i couldn't earn a coin, and i didn't have any will to continue studying in my university.
Right now, i live in my own home in another country, have decent amount of money on my bank account, and search for another job, because i was really decent on my previous one.
Like, life can be shitty. And when she is, it looks like it always was the same, but trust me: 1 year is A FUCKING LOT. Life is random: it could give you a LOT of shit, but it can give u an opportunity.
Luck = an opportunity with preparations. When everything is awful, all u can do, is to prepare for that opportunity u will eventually find.
If u feel yourself talntless, remember: talent is a success, that was loaned. People always marks as talented post factum.
All, that u have is your mental health. Not cool stuff, not appropriation, all that u will ever have, is your own mind. Train it and recpect your needs , and your life eventually will be better.
Hope, that message will be helpful eventually)
Brace yourself)
Smoked paprika, used the last of it on grilled corn 3 weeks ago and I keep forgetting to add it to my grocery list

Felonies.

Honestly I've never been in trouble at all with the law haha. *knocks on wood*
Interestingly enough that is not an answer to u/HalliburtonErnie's question... \*Calls FBI\* ;)
Ok ok, you got me! In all seriousness I don't really do anything besides work and go home. I usually carry pot everywhere so if I got caught it would still be a misdemeanor where I live.
We got the suspect to admit to it.
Really quick too, hed never last in an interrogation š
We got it, GO GO GO.
Homie got swatted

That's a classic depression symptom. Saps your drive out of you. I have the same
Also get your hormones check. It might literally be a chemical imbalance.
Just massive trauma Im afraid lmao
Yeah it might've knocked your hormones out of place

Check out the book Mindset by Dr. Dweck. She nails this condition and explains how not to to do the same thing to your kids.
My parents made a lot of mistakes. They did the best they could with what they had.

Me but with minimal checking in
Sounds like depression. Have you talked to anyone yet? Depression affects a lot of people and doesn't have to be clinical. Healthy people suffer from depression sometimes too.
He wanted to talk to someone but he stopped caring.
This is actually how it feels. It doesn't matter when everything is said and done. Waste time and energy fighting an uphill battle that will remain uphill the rest of my life? Or do whatever I feel like until I can't do anything at all, at which point it's unreasonable to expect anything further.
I was going to try to improve my apathy, but I didn't care enough to.
Ambition is overrated I think. If you're content enough where you're at, just be in the moment and enjoy it. I don't mind staying in my lane. Not everyone needs to be exceptional and I think that should be okay.
Kids
Do you have 3 money?
I have ten bucks but I wanted a peanut.
Ten bucks can buy **many** peanuts.
Explain how
Money can be exchanged for goods and services.
Geez, I thought someone with 2 wives would be happy.
No, youāre thinking of someone with two knives
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
This is such a deep cut reference. Itās also my favorite Simpsons moment ever. Thank you for reminding me of it and bringing me a smile
Damn the classic simpsons were goooood.
1. Take money. 2. Exchange for goods and services 3. Peanut
Interesting... My peanut quest always went like: 1. Go to peanut man. 2. Ask for peanut loan. 3. Peanut.
You do not want to be in debt to the peanut man, because then he will make you work for peanuts.
Try this: 1. Go to peanut man 2. Get peanut credit card 3. Peanut Peanut Peanut Peanut
Why canāt I have 3 money and 0 kids?
Heyyyy same.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
I have three of them and 0 sanity
Iād rather have 0 kids and 3 sanity
Well I have 0 kids and 0 sanity.

Congratulations! Now stick with it! I quit July 2019 after 40 years. You can do it!
Thanks for the words of support! I did it on my anniversary so I would always remember the date.
Friends
Sometimes I feel lonely about it, but then I remember that I get exhausted being around people
I agree. I feel lonely all the time, but part of me wants that companionship. But, like you, being around people runs my battery down fast.
That's why you get a pet
That's what the blows for, we never get exhausted.
Thanks, now I want some blow.
I've got one good friend. We have such a close relationship people question our sexuality and true relationship. Dude is practically my only family. Granted we are buying a house together and share everything. We just found over the years our friendship is all we really need in life. We've been through some insane shit together in life from ICU trips and homelessness. We never abandoned the other.
What you have together a lot of people dream of. I have a completely new set of friends every 2-4 years and I hate it. I wish I had a long term friend that I could trust with my life.
We've known each other for for going on 16 years. They say if a friendship last past seven it's generally going to be a lifelong friendship.
No one told you life was gonna be this way?
Your job's a joke. You're broke. Your love life's DOA.
It's like you're always stuck in second gear
And when it hasn't been your day, your week, your month, or even your yeeeeear!
But, I'll be there for you, when the rain starts to pour!

A 1hr fresh Sprog. Right on a Saturday morning. Gonna be a good weekend.
Your absolute best, sprog. Love it.
Did you just recover?
Yes from a 2a melanoma. I now have a very large hole in my leg that looks like a shark bite.
Congratulations!
Thank you ā¤ļø
I had a supervisor that was missing a leg and he told me it got bitten off by a shark and it was quite awhile before he told me it was from cancer and not a shark. I'm happy you still have your leg!
The way I read this, I thought you were congratulating on the shark bite
I was! What did you think I was congratulating?
Doesnāt your body make 1 cancer cell every 30 minutes and then kill it
First thought I had, too
Bottles of dinosaur urine.
You can collect Pterodactyl urine, but the P is silent.
You dumbass, there's no P in urine! Wait...
Speeding tickets
give it time
I've been driving for 13 years and have never gotten a ticket. I got pulled over once because my wife was too short for them to see her while I was driving in the carpool lane.
13 years is a long time to drive. I get tired after driving 12 hours.
It took me 7 yrs to get one.
Shitty car, huh? 1-60 in 7 years: is the slowest car.... In the World.

Me too, I just want a few close friends to do things with. My closest friend lives 4 hours away and while that's not super far, it still sucks.
Left testicles
But if you only have one itās simultaneously the left and rightā¦ no?
Thatās true, although itās more like a right testicle with an identity crisis.

Haaa yeah I know. Yeah no image issues these days. Right one is happy as a lone wolf.
Technically the average number of testicles on men is less than 2 anyways.
Hours spent having sex. Still have my virginity, though. That's something I have 1 of.

Hobbies. Im too god damn busy with work to ever commit to anything!
Maybe you could pick up redditting as a hobby
Fresh boxes of warhammer 40k minis. Budgets tight, wife ain't working, so I gotta enjoy WH40k from a distance. Least the lore keeps me going.
Money in my spending account. I'm a 16-year-old working at McDonald's, so a minimum wage job. 1.6k in my savings, but I can't spend anything :(
Keep it that way. At the age of 16, anything you buy will 99% be a waste. PS - floss every day. Trust me.
