1) Dissociating.
2) Drinking.
3) Escapism/low-key gaming.
4) J/o or fantasizing in general.
Lately all I do is daydream, and/or wonder about the other side.
How can I be truly interested in something that only lasts a number of decades? (life). If I'm honest, I'm much more interested in the eternal, or what comes after.
To me, that's logical. Recently I was re-watching the Saw horror movies, and they struck a chord with me. If I was in a Jigsaw trap or some shit, I'd be most invested in what comes after I make it through whatever I'm currently dealing with.
When you're young, you're steered along on a certain conveyor belt of expectations. School -> College -> Job -> Marriage -> Kids -> Happily ever after. What if none of that has worked for you? As I get older, I find I'm less and less interested in the second half of my life, I guess primarily because the first half of it went to pot. Why would I give a shit? Failing health, fading looks, no real prospects. What's there to look forward to?
Screw it man, I'm done with worrying about things. I am pushing 40, soon I will just see life as a shit movie that I'm half invested in but I've made it this far, so why not see it through to the end? That's how I feel. I have nothing worthwhile going on and nothing to work towards. There is only survival, and passing the time.
Much love to my buds on here. I appreciate you all, even if I can't give you time or attention atm. I'm in a bad place.
