Some shameless advertising plug here: PG is perhaps a great place to be, for the rest of your life, mainly for the quality of the community it has managed to attract and keep here.

Few things can compare to the nice feelings that multi-year, quality, gaming communities can contribute to your daily life.

Grim if your not even an adult yet you don't need to be worrying about what your doing with your life, You still have tons of time to decide what you want to do. Just try to find something that makes you happy and pursue it(so long as its legal of course). If your not happy with your life then think about what you might be missing, or whats causing you misery. Try talking to someone you trust about it if you think it would help. You could even go see a therapist if needed- though I tend to think of rather lowly of therapists and wouldn't recommend it myself.

I have a short attention span, so usually even if I find something I like to do, it wouldn't take long to make me bored.

Music is what you need,the wisdom of 90`s pop punk always cheers me up!
I suggest bands such as:
Carter USM,(Gi Blues, Bedsitter, The Impossible Dream, Lean On Me)
The Wonderstuff,(Mission Drive, Dizzy)
Neds Atomic Dustbin, (Kill your television)
The Verve, (Bittersweet Symphony)
Recently the track 'Where`s me jumper' by Sultans Of Ping has been doing it for me.
If they don`t work try 'Wonderful World' by Louis Armstrong.
I don't know, it seems to me if they ain't got you one way they got you another,
So what's the answer? that's what I keep asking myself, what's it all about?
Know what l mean?

There is a difference between doing something you like and doing something you truly enjoy. I like programming. I can work on it for a while, but I can easily get distracted. I truly enjoy working with my hands. I can sit and troubleshoot, fix, and/or build something almost all day long.

Generally too preoccupied with life's business to sit down and think about that. Philosophy is a spectator sport. But spectating this world can be depressive; I personally find it better to be in the belly of the beast than to watch it from the outside.

My advice. Work hard, Play Harder, Love Hardest

Surround yourself with Family and Friends. No one should go through lifes journey alone and it is much easier surrounded by family and friends


Yet, I've only spend 15 years in this world, but one thing I've learned.

I, Atleast, have experienced to always end up walking alone. That'd might just be my choices, my story. I'm not saying there ain't truth in those words lol

I also prefer solitude most the time, but I still love spending time with my family, and I have a few close friends I enjoy spending time with. I think its actually damaging to the human psyche to live in complete solitude.

Living to me seems soo useless to me, life can easily end at any moment from accidents or what not, what happens after we die? Do we just turn to nothingness and nothing matters anymore? Or is this thought just depression or anxiety. Maybe this is just overthinking, and even if we don't know what happens it's better to just continue living in order to grow up and work for 40 years of your life and retire, only to regret working for so long and having done nothing in my life tho, this thought is normal? Or is everyone just doing the same thing again and again normal for them? No, I ain't the first one to think of this, or maybe I am? Who knows.


As a young person you have most of your life in front of you, life becomes fuller and richer as you grow older, any old fart will tell you that :)
The internal resolution around life after death is the primary motivation for religion, you can embrace or reject that path by choice, but it does seem to be the most common determining factor in how you respond to thoughts around "after life".
I'm in my mid 50s and despite have a relatively successful life to date my greatest enjoyment in life is watching my two daughters take on the world with great success, offspring are often listed by people as their greatest contribution to the world for many good reasons.

Find things you can be passionate about, causes, hobbies, sports teams, whatever rocks your boat, but invest emotionally in them and commune with those who share that passion.

Try to be a glass half full person, typically they enjoy life more than a glass half empty person.
Regret is a very common emotion, as is satisfaction, very few people get to live a life without regret.

Don't be ashamed to seek professional counsel, they are trained to help you find your true self and purpose.
Some people are like Slinkies, totally useless but great fun to watch when you push them down the stairs
