Already a thread for this.
Unbelievably bored, stressed too. I have an exam at 9am that I feel totally unprepared for, but can't concentrate on revision.
Forgot to check to catalog, if this thread doesn't go anywhere I'll head on over
I can only imagine I have difficulty focusing, I'm trying to study online but keep getting side tracked. Going to ask my doc for adderall to see if that helps
Not sure if bored. I mean I am here, this is generally a last resort, but I'm just chilling today. Been having a busy couple of weeks, hell maybe a month, and I have made friends, so there hasnt been much space for boredom lately. So normally I wouldnt be bored right now but I guess I feel boredom cause I got used to a faster pace and this is the first lazy day in a while.
I sort of get why normies have no interests or creative hobbies now. I just made a couple of friends and hanging out with them is way more fun than staying home alone. Normies make friends all the fucking time, no shit they dont bother with pastimes.
Going to apply for college today, scared cuz I'm a literal retard who can't focus in class.
Join the club, I have 14 hours until my exam and now I'm panicking.
I could probably do with some adderall, I don't know what the law stands with it in the UK though
Glad you've made some friends user, I guess everything is a blur when you have people that constantly need your attention, not much time for yourself I guess
Best of luck as long as you try your best that's all that matters, even if you're set up to fail from the start
Pretty sure you'll need a prescription, it's not the type of drug they hand over the counter. Good thing going for me though is I have adhd so it shouldn't be too hard getting them
Aaah, lucky you. I probably need to see a doctor about how bad my concentration is.
Yeah hanging out with people is way more stimulating than playing video games, working out or making art, which are some of the hobbies I have to compare to. I dont think anyone would grow up to be introverted given the chance not to desu. Im sure most of us were isolated against their will in our childhood and thats why we ended up like this.
In my experience asking for it directly may make the doctors assume you're just seeking the drug for a high so don't bring it up and just talk about the issue you're facing and he should prescribe it anyway, happened when I kept asking for benzos he turned me down for drug seeking
Hahah, shit, okay. Thanks for the advice, wish me luck.
Just got home from work. Feeling pretty tired, but I also wanna play a game or something, probably.
In most cases that can be true but I had this old friend who use to go out all the time being with friends then suddenly he found it too stressful and cut contact with everyone, as if he prefers seclusion and I can understand that but being lonely for too long can really take a toll on you, I think he secretly misses companionship
Yeah chillax with a game should be nice what do you plan on playing? I've been up all night going through arkham asylum
Either Ripto's Rage on Spyro Reignited or RDR2. Pacing is pretty damn slow, but I'm kinda digging it, just not sure if I think it's better than the first Redemption quite yet.
I used to really enjoy my time alone desu. I was always entertained, creating songs and talking with strangers across the world on the net. I just realized it wasn't really by choice, I just never had friends to hang out with often enough to know how fun just hanging out actually is.
But yeah loneliness can be painful. In his case tho he's probably safe, cause if he had friends his whole life he's probably adapted enough to get a healthy social life again if he feels like, as opposed to people who have no idea where to even start, like a lot of the users of this board.
Fuck it's been years since I played rdr, forgotten the plot and lost the game, might pick it up and the second one as well on my next pay
You made friends recently right? how did you manage that was it through work or a course? after you said how lonely you've been I'm just curious as to what you did to change all that
So far it's been cool getting to look into bits of the van der Linde gang's backstory, they even show how John got his scars early on.
Sounds like fun, I really enjoyed the game the last time I played so it's cool to know we'll get some back story later on
It was mostly due to weird circumstances. Idk how I'd make friends if I wanted to, but there are some attitudes that I used to not have that have been helpful. Such as trusting. I dont suspect ulterior motives or worry that they secretly despise me and are just being nice or shit like that, I just talk to people normally and most of the time nothing happens, but I made a couple of friends by just being open to it and being generally sociable. Like, giving the chance to others to be your friend by being available, understanding and nice. Also I do things to preserve the friendship, like playing a video game or going to place I'm not interested in just because they are. Just like I ask the same back, if I have to do something random I might ask if they're free and to come with me, even if its something boring.
I also quit drinking. I used to do all kinds of stupid shit that drove people away when drunk. Not necessary for most people tho, people make friends through drinking a lot of the time, but it was a huge flaw of mine. I've been working a lot on my flaws and values and that seems to help a lot in general when it comes to social interactions.
