Anyone else feel they are adrift in life? Srs tag is srs

Maybe the Covid-19 isolation is getting to my mental health a bit.

I just realized I've been on this forum for almost 2 decades and I'm only 32yo.

Since high school my life has been a blur without a lot of the stages/rites of passage that often define a life well-lived.

I didn't join the military, go to college, get married and have kids, buy a home, etc etc

I worked for 10+ years at the same place, climbed the corporate ladder but got laid off due to Covid impact.

Going back to school now with online scholarship but I can't help feeling adrift in space and time.

Anyone else? Srs

-life feels directionless
-didn't do typical rites of passage that give life structure
-thinking to finish school, date better women in hopes of one day having a family, etc
-profit???

I did do the whole college stuff and my life is still adrift

I think when you hit your 30s you realize 1. You’re not important and 2. Everything in life is bullsh*t


There are no more hopes and dreams, just passing time until death now and it really doesn’t make a difference how you spend it tbh
"One day I won't be able to lift any more. Not I won't want to lift. I mean physically unable. That day could be decades from now or it could be tomorrow. All I know is that's the day I'll wish I could lift more than ever. The day I'd give anything for one more workout, one more set, or one more cardio session. So go hard and enjoy every workout, every set, every rep. Because one day you will wake up and you will never get it back."

This is true for normies.

I encourage normal people to be humble and honest with themselves. Stop fronting hard and trying to be equals with those you are jealous of.

Cheers

After falling in disgrace to a manmore, a ravaged manlet would not hesitate to come from behind and land a sucker punch/ swing with a rock to the back of a manmore's head. They are ruthless and you need to spend some more time in the gutter to even begin trying to comprehend what goes on in their minds."

Life is short and at the same time long. You’ll have moments where it feels like things are stale. Especially during a pandemic.

You're 30 not 60, no such thing as "as kids say".

Jfl @ acting like ages 14-35 don't see all the same memes.
Do not think that what is hard for you to master is humanly impossible; and if it is humanly possible, consider it to be within your reach.
