I feel you. I'm totally with you. I've earlier been very physical active, efficient and highly energetic. Now it feels like everything is gone. I'm feeling almost retarded sometimes. Makes me wanna CTB asap.

It might be the pervasiveness of technology and how quickly information is being sent and viewed now. I mean TikTok exists and I swear people's attention span is worse than that of a goldfish. Unable to focus past 10 seconds because 10 seconds is the average TikTok/Instagram/Youtube short. I don't watch much of those shorts (other than browsing Youtube videos and sometimes Youtube shorts) and my attention span is about 2 minutes now compared to when I was young and could pay attention for far longer. If you've noticed, a lot of the "content creators" (and I use this term very loosely) on Youtube purposefully edit their videos to cut between two-to-three seconds per edit to keep your attention for as long as possible to count as a view and a count towards their monetization goals.

I feel very sorry for any kids who are growing up now in the iphone/ipad/smartphone era. You're having flashing colours and quick editing brainrot messing with your susecptible mind at around two years old because your dipshit parents don't know any better and use it as a pacifier to shut you up instead of giving you love, care, and attention. Generation Alpha already is showing symptoms of failing educational standards, academic goals, and basic social etiquette. I've seen it first-hand and it only makes me want to ctb even more. Why bring a child in this purposeless world if you're only going to neglect him with a tablet?

fellow NEET, I see. Fellow traveler. It's kind of degrading; but so is work; stuck between a rock and a hard place.

Same. I'm terrified of turning 30 soon in this situation
