JUST FOR FUN: Why is everything so messed up?:-)
Asked by: kc5255

I HAVE A SENSE OF HUMOR SO MAKE YOUR ANSWERS FUNNY:-)
I have no motivation to do any of the things I should be doing, such as get a job or anything. I have no love life, I've never had a love life, and serious lack of affection from namely my parents as resulted in me being basically unable to express emotion.
All I have to ever look forward to is hanging out with friends on the weekends, and when we don't do anything particularly fun I feel... disappointed or something. They're still in high school.
I should have graduated last year but I gave up half way through and am about to take my GED. I did good on the practice test, but I seriously don't feel like taking a two day long test, and me not feeling like doing so is more important to me than what people will think of me without one.
I have hobbies. I make videos and put em on the internet, I play video games, I play ouside a lot, I do all sorts of junk. But I have no one to love, and no one loves me, I have no incentive to get a job and make money, or go to college and get a job and make money, or go to college and get a degree.
I used to get depressed about all this, but now everything just feels... messed up. I think I had a mid-life crisis like 1/5 into my life, and now I just don't know what to do or where to go.
When I think about my future, or people ask where I see myself in 10 years or whatever, I don't see anything. I have no clue where I'll be, and in the back of my mind I feel that in all probability, I'll be dead, as emo as it sounds.
People try and pressure you into living your life the way they want you to, because that's how they had to do it, how everyone else does it, so you have to do it too. But I don't want any of that, and I want to do it my own way and at my own pace. It's just that I don't know what that is any more.

Everyone spews all this great advice about life, but don't even listen to it. And if you try and go by it, they shut you down. Everything's so messed up, and I don't know what to do.

This reminds me of one of the memorable lines from Delta Burke (aka Suzanne Sugarbaker) on Designing Women:

Common, man:) Seems like you had an easy childhood:) People get motivated when they lack something or when they have dreams and want to make them real. And everyone has them.
Reading this I though ...Oh no another Prozac's victim:) Common, be better than this! And don't loose everything just because you want something better and for this reason do not have a girlfriend yet:) To be frank with you there is nothing you can suggest to her yet as you are so unhappy about you...

Wow! A virtual kick in the butt from me to you! lol The best thing I've learned in this life is that I'm the only person who can make me happy! I don't need a man to do that for me! I don't expect my family and friends to do that for me! Happiness to me is knowing I'm the best person I can possibly be! That brings contentment, peace of mind and a positive attitude. I don't dwell on the things I don't have - Im just grateful for the things I do have. I never get lonely, even when I'm alone, because I enjoy my own company...

Things are only what you make of them. When life throws you a dog leg; tee up the ball and hit it... watch out for the trees though!

I know we argue over the quality of a person that just answers rewarded questions, but dont even worry about considering me for this one, just read.
If you are unsatisfied with the way you are living, you need to change it to what you want. You have to look inside yourself and find what brings you the greatest joy and go for it with all you've got. Just don't try to look for the greatest thrill or something like that because it's not true joy, it's a spike that will just make you feel lower once you're done because y...
