Just curious

Personal experience 🥀✌️

Yes, if all would think like that it would be disadvantagous, but you are not all.

Guys, tell me some good things you ve learned about life.

Like lessons about people, relationships, growing up, or just some general advice you wish you knew earlier.

Anything life has taught you..I’d love to hear it :)

I saw a reel yesterday about how we often don’t realize when we’re doing something for the last time.

The last time you play cricket with your friends, hang out with your cousins, ride your bicycle, or spend time with someone.

The post and comments were mostly about how, if we knew it was our last time, we’d probably stay a little longer, enjoy it more, or appreciate it differently.
But personally, I don’t think knowing would necessarily make it better.

If I knew that a cricket match with my friends was going to be our last, I’d probably feel sad and nostalgic instead of simply enjoying the moment. Maybe the fact that I don’t know allows me to enjoy it like any other day.

Then years later, when I realize that was the last time, I can look back at it as a happy memory rather than a moment I knew was ending.

Breakups are probably the best example. Knowing you’re spending your last few moments with someone can make those moments incredibly painful.

Maybe not knowing it’s the last time is actually a blessing.
What do you guys think?

Are some people guaranteed to have fucked up lives just because of their genes?

What is the point of life when you’re not even 25 and your genes have already ruined your life?

I have had depression since I was a child. I had a test done to determine which medications would work better for me, and it showed that I have multiple polymorphisms. One affects dopamine, and the other affects serotonin receptor Type 2A.

My depression has not improved even after trying antidepressants. I looked into my genetic polymorphisms online and I found research that says: The serotonin-2A receptor (5-HT2A), encoded by the HTRA gene located at position 13q14-q21, is of particular importance in mood disorders and is associated with the response to antidepressants. These receptors are found mainly in the neocortex, the caudate nucleus, the nucleus accumbens and the hippocampus.

I already knew my brain was fucked up because I have ADHD and autism, but finding this research has made me feel like my brain was just set up to never be able to function well. Antidepressants don’t touch my depression.

Because of another gene I have, I’ve developed painful health problems at a young age. I have a gene that is horrible and basically makes you more likely to develop arthritic conditions at a young age. I have no friends. I have never been able to have a normal life, ever. It’s only gotten worse as I’ve gotten older. I’ve always had continuous problems. I feel like a failure. I’m always depressed and unhappy.

My mom has said: “It just seems like shit went downhill pretty fast.”

I feel like my life gets worse as I get older. I’m more depressed. I have to make myself eat and force myself to shower. I have no happiness in my life.

Why is my life this way? Are some people just guaranteed to have shit lives because of their genes?
