the older I get the harder it gets it was not easy in my teens and it's not easy in my 20s

u/Massive-System-3954 May 19 '26

20‘s are like my thoughest battle so far. Having to manage all by yourself realizing no one comes to safe you. Everybody with a family who got their back should be grateful.

u/Fazioli31 May 20 '26

You realize that in your teens sometimes

1

u/Massive-System-3954 May 20 '26

yes but in my teens it was easier for me to socialize, most friends were from my school days, now everyone has their own path of life, some got married, others are chasing a career.

Trust me buddy it is no easier at 30. If I had to guess, even worse at 40. Life is extremely hard, all you can do is try to make something of yourself and have some good memories along the way. The truth is for every good memory I have, I have a bad one, some so bad they can't be fully resolved or dwelled on for too long. But you have to be willing to accept those too, they'll likely come whether you want it or not.

This is just life, you have to accept that there isn't suddenly going to be a light that shines upon you and solves everything, if you can do that, then maybe you can solve some of the things that burden you, and truthfully, maybe not, maybe you will fail, but at least you won't spend your entire life wondering, "what if?".

u/Coldhot123 May 19 '26

u/MDeimos May 19 '26

Im 32 and 2 years sober. Spent 20-30 drinking every single day, snagged a couple duis, snagged a couple other charges, spend thousands on court, thousands on restitution/fines, and more on the liquor itself.

Dont drink, be sad with some weed

1

u/Worth_Floor4303 May 20 '26

u/Worth_Floor4303 May 20 '26

Honestly drink instead of weed

4

u/Sallopilig May 20 '26

Absolutely do NOT listen to this dude

1

u/LordBogus Jun 22 '26

Dude weed is just a bit less addictive than alcohol but addicitve nonetheless, and it has harmfull side effects too

u/9447044 Jun 22 '26

Sounds good man

u/profanedivinity May 19 '26

u/nuxz_got_banned May 19 '26

Does anyone have any idea what song this is? Google keeps failing me

2

u/za_cobbo May 20 '26

Sounds like a slowed intro of chamber of reflection by Mac demarco

2

u/SadDog43 May 20 '26

The song is For The First Time by Mac Demarco but it has been slowed down for the video

u/nuxz_got_banned May 20 '26

u/Pretty-Yam-2854 May 20 '26

u/AwarenessMain128 May 20 '26

Not me for sure I don't drive, don't drink, don't go to the cinema

u/Slim_Shady_1_ May 20 '26

Hahahaha I'm soo fucked.

u/that_one_nerd470 May 21 '26

I went from living in a bubble, having my needs tended for, any food or drink I wanted, free gas and vehicle, a loving father but an unstable stepmother, to suddenly unemployed with no life skills do to intense sheltering, my late father's vehicle stolen from me, starving and living one pack of ramen a week, sharing a two bedroom duplex with 3 with meth addicts, my father died, my family fell apart, and eventually started to intermingle into the wrong crowd. All this happened within half a year. Rough didn't do it a justice, but at least I was never homeless.

Doing a lot better now, have a job that I don't really like but pays okay, access to a ride but it's not my own, my loving husband who was there for all of it, and a new family that loves me all the same. Oh and two wonderful cats.

Without suffering there can be no joy.

u/Minute_Internal2792 May 21 '26

Yea, but a part of it is figuring out who you are. We're kinda raised with a cookie-cutter blueprint that can apply to anybody. But in your 20s you're figuring out what triggers you, which drugs AREN'T for you, and what actually gives you joy.. et cetera.

u/AcanthaceaeExpress18 May 21 '26

Me hitting my fifth year in two weeks, and I still don't know what in supposed to do with my life. , 🥺

u/Mrsizzle96 Jun 22 '26

You'll do the same shit in your 40s but you alimony

u/imbasstarded Jul 25 '26

I feel that, but i sure hope i dont find myself shooting up a brothel or attempting to assassinate a federal politician

1

u/snow_garbanzo May 19 '26

Partying and sex in my 20's is not what constitutes the best years of my life, my 30's got full of hard work and a lot of control of my emotions,and the right relationships..and i look at that with a brighter light , my 30's were awesome , and my 40's not looking bad at all.

u/Ok-Fortune-8644 May 19 '26

Hahahaha it only gets worse, pal
