Venting I used to be happy

[Geodude77]

It's kind of crazy think how much happier I used to be. Just 5-6 years ago I was in hs chilling with my bros. My life went downhill fast during those 5-6 years. I don't wanna go into detail because I've already done so in past posts and it's 2 am. Every time I look at old photos I can't believe I didn't see how lucky I was at what I had. I've graduated college and I hate my life.

when times were simpler and I had hope for the future.

It's dreadful to me how existing can easily get much worse, I'm sorry you have to suffer in this cruel existence. But anyway I wish you the best.

Yeah, My mother keeps telling me about how she misses the younger, happier me that she used to know. I kind of understand it, there was a level of bliss you experience when your younger, that is missing when your older. Though I have grown to feel like it's better to be aware and in pain, than asleep and delusionally optimistic.

But nothing beats not existing in the first place.

I relate to this a lot

Before COVID i was enjoying the 2nd best period of my life. I really thought my life was finally coming together. Since then i have lost all my savings, my partner, my career has flatlined, but the absolute final straw is that i may have a chronic health problem. I'm approaching 40 now and it just feels like my life is functionally over, and there's really just no hope of salvaging anything now, even if i could be bothered. It's like i have all the downsides of being old, and none of the benefits, like a house and family.
