27 year olds were 13 only 13 years ago. I feel like 36 is when you officially hit “not young”
I’ve always gone by the old 4-score kinda system - 0-20 child, 20-40 “young” adult, 40-60 middle aged, 60+ old
I’ll probably adopt this one by the time I hit 36 lol
And then another one 4 years later
Imagine having such a blessed life, living at home with loving parents, and thinking your life was wasted? Didn’t you enjoy the books, the joints and the videogames? Also, what were you expecting to do with it? Your will decides how the universe moves or are you, like everyone else, just a limited being with some degree of self determination? You do realize we’re all reaching the same destination (or, for the believers, going through the same place)? 🤷
yea i feel very blessed and privileged but my depression doesnt agree :/
Your depression is weak and stupid and pitiful. It will never do amything good and nobody will ever love it except as part of some misguided misunderstanding related to the rest of you. It should just kill itself and let you get on with your fucking life.
Unless you’re a fascist. Then reverse everything i just said; your depression is great.
Everyone has different ways of coping but for myself hating my depression would be hating a part of myself and honestly selfhatred does not get you far. I wouldn’t say I love my depression either, its just neutral. It is a part of myself no matter how I feel about it and I find that just accepting it helps me to plan around it and work with it. Depression is part of who I am but not all I am, nomatter what.
If your way of thinking has helped you with you own depression that’s great, but I hope you can see how calling other peoples conditions “weak, stupid and pitiful” is really mean? If you know the person well and this helps them, you could maybe say it but if you don’t, just don’t!
And If you want to share your own experience, frame it that way. You could say that seeing depression as something separate from yourself that you have to overcome helped you. Just dont assume its the same for everyone
Oh i don’t think like that on the rare occasion im taking something seriously; it’s just fun.
It was a play on depression-thoughts, not knowing which flavor OP had, suggesting it sucks in the language typically favored in depressive episodes generally.
you put it really well! altho didnt expect my stupid post to go this deep

It sounds to me like you have a really enabling relationship with your depression. Like you over-identify with it.
homie i didnt sign up for this therapy session. you are over-analyzing it.
Then strangle it. Cherish its flailing screams and make a trophy of its mangled corpse!
I know thats not how mental illness works but it’s more fun if I pretend.
would sell my soul for a stoner disaster who also wasted her youth
SAME but i would like an alcoholic not a smoker bc smoke makes my lungs ouchie
mmmm yeah maybe it’s not the specific vice, just the presence of a vice. brb, gonna go try to hook up at a 12-step program
Let me know how it goes, I could use some pointers
Cranberry juice, White claw, Yerba mate, Pickles
Long ago, the four nations lived together in harmony.
what? i dont speak american
Those are the edible/drinkable containers on his desk.
Cranberry juice: I don’t think that’s America, but it’s a fruit juice. Oceanspray is a popular brand.
White claw: a popular alcoholic beverage in America. 5% ABV, fruity flavors.
Yerba mate: traditional South American energy/herbal drink. This is the consumer ready-to-drink can form (yellow can)
Pickles: come on.
thanks for explaining. also, im pretty sure thats a woman chudjak… no big deal just saying :3
38*
Youth successfully wasted! I’ve been living in someone’s garage because I’m a failure working in a factory yay!
…yay?
this inspired me 🥹 to never get a job. thanks
I did this without any drugs or whatever is in this image
Same, when others from school went partying and drinking at 13 yo I played world of Warcraft and team fortress 2. Only drug I took was caffeine from kofola.
Horde I hope
My first char was human paladin.
I hope you die
This is acceptable
No pickles or Yrba Mate?
Sure
same 🤝
I almost did this twice, first time I got bored and went back to uni, second time with drugs, but the drugs motivated me to study for uni again, idk what’s wrong with me
this isnt wasting youth… fake waster 🫵🤨
Damn, I really tried tho, I’m just not strong enough for that
its ok , soldier 🫂
A life? But I got a Steam Deck!
I had to drop out of uni because of depression and social anxiety when I was 25. Been in therapy since, weekly sessions and a six week stay in a clinic. Tried working again 2 years ago but had to quit after a few months.
I’m 29 now. Since about 3 months ago out of the blue my mental ailments have all but vanished. The months before that were very painful. I had lost contact with all my friends, my hobbies no longer felt fun, I was just lost and scared because of what’s been happening in the world. But during that time without really being aware of it I processed a lot of trauma and allowed myself to actually see it through and regenerate for the first time. The reclusive hermit stage can lead to big things. If you’re interested the woman in this video talks about her healing journey which then kicked off mine.
I also recommend mindfulness training. Basically teach yourself to think less because thinking makes you sad.
thank you for sharing. sending love （￣︶￣）↗❤️
I used photoshop tutorials on wastedyouth.org when it existed.
I’ve wasted more than my youth now.
Is it? I have done nothing with my life.
have you left the house today or yesterday or last week or last month? thats something
LOL at the Mirror DVD (Criterion Collection, of course)
