Anyone else here have no life?

[thebelljarrr]

Oh man existence is so boring. I feel nothing towards everything, and I don't know anyone, nor do I want to. It's so hollow and I don't really care to change things

 

[cowboypants]

Same. I used to be able to go out and head to the city alone now my anxiety and isolation paralyses me
What did you used to do to enjoy yourself while travelling alone
I used to like looking at tourist attractions and going to different restaurants

I travel on my motorcycle so I used to enjoy as long as I was on the road and riding. I have speakers inside my helmet I put music on and disappear.

For a period of time during college I used smoke weed, prolly not recommended. It made my mind calm and the travel experience was very visceral. Travelling through the lush green country side and you can smell everything.

Although I love food I don't like to eat in restaurants as it makes me anxious. I wish I could just sit and enjoy but then being alone makes feel lonely. Most places are crowded in my country.

I used to go to temples and stuff like a monastery but most of my rides were to just ride along the country side or along the coast on a bright moon night or staring into the beach thinking why I don't feel good

 

[YosemiteGrrl]

Been bed rotting and staring at walls all day for 7 years now

I'm at 5 and a half years. Torture.

 

[Alex Fermentopathy]

I cannot say that people outside don't like me. Sometimes clearly the opposite (I do mean women, do not know about guys). But I don't go outside except for rare exeptions, if necessary. Groceries are ordered for delivery and left at my door. I worked online when I worked.

But I enjoyed such type of life for some time before exacerbation of my disease. I loved my job (programming), reading, gaming, chatting with online friends.

 

[D1byRam3n]

Me. The worthless human...

 

[J&L383]

I am sorry to hear. 8 years for me

If you don't mind me asking, what is stopping you from going outside and enjoying life?

For me, its loneliness and lack of friends. I can't really enjoy myself if i go out, i would see people in friend groups and it would sadden me and make me feel isolated and jealous

I go out and enjoy nature. But running into people makes it less enjoyable. . I'm not lonely but I like being alone.

 

[untothedepths]

I'm becoming a shell or husk of whatever I once was, steadily by each passing day. I have no desires to do the things I once have. And now, I'm thinking about removing everyone from life and and cutting contact. It hurts to speak to anyone. It's uncomfortable. Even on here.

I feel like I'm on a metaphorical ship out in the middle of the ocean drifting off to who knows what. I see no land. All I see is nothing but the mundane water. There's no life trophy. There's no meaning or purpose to any of this. Personally, I think life is bullshit.

I have severe body dysphoria due to a medical condition. It's unbearable. Distractions like tv, youtube and gaming are all I have but even they're not enough anymore. Can't stop imagining what my life could have been.

Yeah I also used to like movies but after a while it's the same old shit over and over again. Most movies almost have the same narrative structure and after a while watching a screen is so f***ing boring. I also do what you do: tv, youtube, gaming, social media, etc. After a while, I just get so bored from all this crap.

 

[sukiduki]

in the eyes of others i feel like they would say i have a life. i have friends. i go out to concerts, meet up with coworkers for happy hours, might go to a game night every once in awhile. but all the empty time in between i am fighting for my life. i feel like no one truly has my back and i dont have people to decompress with or who are willing to know all the deep parts of me and make me feel understood. i feel like im just doing social things bc i'm "supposed" to- that's what humans do. but it feels so empty

 

[J&L383]

I'm alive, so I guess I have a life, but not the one I need.

 

[goodoldnoname923]

I literally have no life at all.
Some days I work, then i would go home and lay on my couch and stare at the walls and rot until I can sleep.
there is literally nowhere to go, and nothing to do

Did i ever really have one?

 

[thot88]

I go to work and my free time is spent resting. In my free time, I also take care of my grandmother's affairs. I don't have much energy to do anything besides those. I treat anxiety and tension symptoms with alcohol and spending several hours online.

 

[pocket7]

Every day I lie in bed and stare at the ceiling. I'm drugged by psychiatric medicine, unable to enjoy anything. I feel so weak, I can barely shower or move around. My life is so worthless.

 

[LifeIsBS]

here, was just living like a defective robot till a few years ago, now i am unemployed staying at my parents who i rather not talk about, they have never ever in their entire lives even tried to think about why i am the way i am, about why i used to skip school? for even months, then college, and even my job. but then i just had enough.. i quit. i never had a life to begin with and soon I'll be quitting it too.

 

[2806]

I have no life. All ruined because of mental illness.

do you ever feel that supporting your family adds to your purpose?

i wonder about people who feel so called to do by their family and be by their family and i don't have that.

My life for the last several years has been working and going home. I rarely go out if I don't have to. I like it that way though, although I still deal with a sense of shame based around the feeling that I should be more active. I guess I'm pseudo-functioning hikikomori.

I wake up eat breakfast go to work chat with coworkers get back home shower eat watch a movie go to bed on weekdays and some times on weekends I got to a bar with friends. Its basic but I would not call it not having a life.
What your describing is mostly what 90% of the upper poor to middle class people do in their life.
I don't know if society brainwashed us to think this is a good life maybe it did work on me but I'm quite content with it.

 

[stupidhuman]

I have a "life" I guess but I am wasting it every single day. I just feel my potential doing great things deep inside of me but I am incapable to name it and start doing what I enjoy.
Such a waste … I know I won't wake up one day and it'll start going into the right direction but I am too lazy to work towards "it" ( whatever it is)
Or maybe I'm just delusional and in the end I don't have it at all and I just have to cope somehow because in reality I am a no-life

 

[TheUnkn0wn]

On my working days I head to work, get off, play a game of zombies, then sleep the remainder of the day. I try to travel on my off days as it opens my eyes to the world (cheaper than therapy at times too!).

I have little to no social life/SO however its nice to be able to do what you want, however and whenever you want.

 

[ThisGameIsOverrated]

Yeah it's hard to find things to do when you just wanna die

 

[mediocre]

I never had a life never had a job never had friends never had anything to do:(
Been mostly sleeping living on my own the past 15 years.. it really hurts to not have anyone especially when you have so many issues

 

[thot88]

Grandparents are the only people I love

 

[DeathSkullDude1]

I go out and enjoy nature. But running into people makes it less enjoyable. . I'm not lonely but I like being alone.

That's exactly how I feel except for yesterday when I went with some of my cousins to see Meow wolf for the first time. i felt better then but today i'm back to being depressed stuck at home.

 

[Sarros]

I have a life but the anhedonia keeps anything from being enjoyable. I have wants and means to pursue them but why bother if it will all my experiences just blend together in the end.

 

[judal97]

honestly i find it impossible to have a life when i just want to end it,i have 0 motivation to do anything so i just do whatever on my pc or i sleep,just trying to gather some courage to end it or pray for some random thief to enter my home and do the deed lol

 

[Grim_Rockstar]

The weirdest feeling to me is having opportunity, yet such opportunity is far away. I'm a college student with a 3.98 GPA which my mother praises as some sort of miracle, but when such degree is said and done, I often think to myself what will happen to me now? One degree I learned is not enough. I must grasp onto another degree and another degree to boost my educational reputation in order to truly achieve a well-paid job within my respectable field of choice otherwise I will find myself sinking. I have been in college since I was 16 and I am now 20 only halfway finished. I feel as though I am floating in the middle of the sea, waiting to inevitably drown.

 

[itsneverbeenmoreove]

My relationship was my life, and when it ended I realized that I had not accomplished anything. The best I'd done is graduate high school. I don't have any real achievements, I don't have any goals, I don't have anything to be proud of. Even my parents, who are extremely supportive of me weren't able to come up with anything I had done with my life besides "be a good grandson". Everything had gone to having a wonderful relationship, and that was driving me to start taking more steps into the "real world" (eg higher education, full time job etc). But then my ex told me she didn't think I had a future when she broke up with me and she was total right. At least, without her.

Past few months have been stay in my bed, be really scared every time I leave my room, be terrified of driving, think everyone's trying to hurt me, doubt everything people say, and work part time on the weekends. The most i do is participate in Twitch chat twice a week and that gives me some joy because somehow my breakup became part of the stream. But most of what I do is write tens of thousands of words about what happened, what I think might be happening, and going in circles. And do fuck all on my phone or laptop. Just dicking around to keep my from thinking about anything too long.

I almost feel bad saying I have "no life" because there are a lot of people who do care about me, and there are things I do for fun, but there's no reason for it, and I have no interest in going any further. I have no skills to go further in life either. My life feels more like a simulacra of what it is to have no life. Like, I can't even have no life properly, I'm even fucking that up.

 

[Csmith8827]

I don't know if I'd say I have no life...I just don't have the life that I want and I'm not in a good environment so it drains all of my ambition or motivation to try to do anything positive like play electric guitar which has always been a huge dream of mine and I played a little bit when I lived in California and was on the streets but even though I'm under a roof right now I can't bring myself to get or feel like I want to go out and purchase a guitar/amp... and try to play some tunes. It's sad . I just go to work and come home and get on SS. I had a PS5 but I beat FF7 rebirth yesterday so I returned it to rent-a-center today (I just rented a PS5 for that game specifically) and I just got done watching some anime. I don't really have any friends or anything but like yeah... I'm 35 and can operate solo if I have to. It just sucks being dependent on someone else for something and living with a parent at my age. I don't make enough to afford my own place. It's not anything to brag about but I mean... I'm not going to be negative either. I'm making my way and trying to get a better life.

I literally have no life at all.
