@LotharHS When I was young my brother had a PS1 (playstation). We were arguing over who got to play next, not yelling or fighting just talk arguing. Dad got mad, grabbed the console, took it to the shed, said "this is what happens". proceeded to stomp and smash it to pieces in front of us.
@JoshucaVA Isn't it kind of funny how this works out? I only ever wanted to have some friends, be treated like i exist and matter, and just enjoy people i think are great. Ive always been the weirdo, never had many friends and always seem to lose people.
@Favwontmiss I always waited until the last minute to do anything, barely did anything in middle/high school. Still passed with a high GPA. Diagnosed "ADD" as a child, possibly autistic. Ive been a musician since 13.
@_ayandamay I still constantly try to be around people. It is exhausting! I have to shrink down to nothing, put on a facade and I hate it so much. I love being around animals way more and I spend most of my time alone.
One year ago today was Black Sabbath’s farewell concert, “Back to the Beginning.”
It was Ozzy Osbourne’s final show before his death. He was joined by bands such as Metallica, Guns N’ Roses, Anthrax, and others.
It was one of the saddest and most iconic days in Rock History.
@upshine3 Was diagnosed ADD (now ADHD) as a child. Dad got mad when I got put on meds. Took me off "he dont need that crap" and told me for years to "do better!". Last year an autistic friend told me I have autism. So ive been learning a lot and looking into testing. Im 41
@be_like_ice Thats because every interaction IS meaningful and enriching. People are fascinating to watch and study. Even the supposed "meaningless" happenings.
FUNMAXXING
You never learned how to live. Nothing is serious. Talk to people. You can do anything. Tomorrow doesn’t exist. Don’t overthink. Just do it. Create things because why not. Seek novelty. Pursue eternal joy. Play for fun. Give yourself more credit. Be an example of what life can look like.
If you understood the absurdity of everything, your worries would fade, and you would come closer to achieving peace.
Balance is key.
You must learn how to make progress while still making time for fun.
