Burnout.
Grinding away at meaningless bullshit while all your needs and ambitions pile up leads to this feeling pretty consistently.
I guess I’ve been burned out for the past few years, then.
The honest answer is that word is “middle class”, but you’ll all be mad at me for saying it out loud.
Like… the merchant class that existed after the Black Plague who had enough money to have influence over politics? What do they have to do with anything?
See? Told ya.
I for one liked seeing your comment, thanks for sharing it:-)
ADHD?
definitely 😅
Yeah, and try that PLUS bipolar. You actually do the things, but fail miserably after a while because you mind is like a pinball; uuuuuuup the channel like a rocket, and then spend time bouncing really quick randomly, and then plonk, down the pocket
Yeah just don’t go all in on any of those. Dip your toes in to see how long the interest lasts. In my experience, it usually lasts just about long enough to slow roll going all in on it and then it fades. So you don’t save any money, but you might get more time to enjoy it before it becomes another chore that must be avoided if possible. And even then, if you force yourself to do it, it can shift into a thing you enjoy but must stop doing as soon as a natural break occurs because there might be something else more enjoyable.
gorge on life’s creativity, withdraw from life’s realities.
The word I use is “withgorge”
The modern condition
And yet somehow you watch a couple of hours of YouTube during which time you drift in and out of consciousness until you have to go pee. Then you brush your teeth and go to bed.
Yeah, it’s a FOMO.
What you want is to have fun with pizza, but the world around makes you feel it to be wrong and like if you’re missing something. You don’t.
Malaise.
Life.
Hey, that’s my name too
The morbs.
Restlessness.
