growing up...or jaded?

[Ragga_Wh0re]

everything I used to take pleasure in doing,fucking sucks now.Is it because im like growing up and am now realizing that the shit i used to do for kicks really IS lame,or am I just a jaded cunt?All I do now is focus on working,and taking plenty of down time,I cant be bothered to go out anymore,and even when I do i only go out for maybe 2 hrs tops then leave.

god do i ever suck.i need to figure out wtf is my problem,all my friends ive talked to about it tell me im just growing up,but im only 21...im not allowed to be growing up yet!This is wierd.

:(

Not just you, I realized this a while ago too... Seems like all I'm doing is school work and nothing else (well excpet for raving but you get the point). It's like, all my fun has been zapped out of me! HELP!

[cinist]

some people take "growing up" too far, be responsible but have fun

[mapleleaf4ever]

I know, like what the fuck... I order the Salad and eat healthy now too...

[Ragga_Wh0re]

yah but when i go out to have fun...its not fun anymore.

[cinist]

i understand because half the time i feel like just chilling or watching a movie, but i know ill just get in shit from people for doing that so i go out anyway, but i go out a lot less frequently these days. i really would rather just chill with someone at home..

its normal...i went throught that about a year and a half ago

[Bevvy Swift]

the last few days have been quite alot like that for me. i used to to think that everything shitty i go through is a lesson learned

but now im not so sure if i wanna learn any more lessons. the more i find out about the world around me and the people in it, the less i like it

[Ragga_Wh0re]

^yeah thats exactly how I am too.I mean i still like people and the world,its just most of them i could do with out.

And shannon im the exact same way,I just wanna stay home and chill or go out and do like non alcohol or drug related things and like all my friends cant seem to grasp the concept that there IS life outside of clubbing and partying.
It sucks because ive become so urbanized over the past few years,I wish i could go back to how i used to be when i lived in abby.Running around nature all buck nutty and NOT fucked up on drugs or booze 24-7.

*sigh*

You're getting older. Everybody else goes through it too.

The important thing is to make your own fun.

Having unfun?

if you eat peanut butter sandwich every single day for lunch, I think that eventually you would get bored of it.

it's sort of the same thing with a lot of things in life.

one a somewhat related note, I read an article a while back about how some researchers are thinking that one of the reasons why older adults may not remember things as well as younger people is because, things get old to them, and the world around them is not as fascinating and interesting as it would be to a younger person. I mean, mundane things can be a lot more difficult to remember than new, exciting things...

who knows if this is really *true*, but I thought it was an interesting thought.

This makes a lot of sense.

I've always figured intelligence to be the amount and quality of information you choose to pay attention to...

This is why ADD kids test so bloody well.

I find that occasionally I need to take a social breather. Things start to really drive me crazy and I feel like it's a better idea to take a step back and isolate myself a little bit more before I do or say something really stupid.

longest it ever lasts is a few weeks, i think it's pretty normal, or at least i hope it is.

i miss you!i tried calling u today at work but ur phone was m.i.a! come to potd w/me on fri fucko<3

I dont think i need to take a social breather,i think i just need to find more positive/productive social outlets...any suggestions?cuz im completely inept apparently:|

Every now and then we all need a change. To much of one thing will make it dull and unexciting. Try something different or maybe try nothing at all and just relax.

Yeah, this is true. listen to Crackdragon and just try something random :) without change something sleeps inside us....

yah so ive decided,that im going to take a breather from going out minus headliners.Ive also decided that Im going to stop drugs and booze for 2 months,minus pot and ciggarettes!I realized that ive been putting myself on the back burner for far too long and have been living a lifestyle that just doesnt fit me anymore.

Its going to be fricken hard to change,but in the end it`ll be well worth it.

wish me luck!

I wish you luck, and ya, change can be tough - but going out to do the things you loved and having them suk ass is hard too

Being 26 now, a whole lot i did at 21 doesn't do a thing for me anymore and it makes me so frustrated.
Every beer I drink now I think of the calories I am injesting, every hoe that walks in looks like a child now
but i am finding new things , slowly and I will find more
it has somethng to do with 'gowing up' but maybe more to do with just getting older =)

haha, yeah, just coming out of one of these. i tend to try and time them with when i don't have any money to go out. ;)

goddessa, good luck, a change of pace is a good thing. you can't party hard forever.
