thats sorta how i feel. i should feel blessed, and grateful. i dont own my own house, but i do own my car, and i live with the girl i love and her dog and our 2 cats. man i even got a medical marijuana card. i have everything i need to make music in my spare time, but im too depressed to sit down and come up with something. any time i do, i just end up deleting the project folder.I live a boring and uneventful life. It could be worse but shyt isnt all sunshine and roses. Each year that i get older, the more i feel than being at peace. I really dont know how ive been able to get to this point without having a moment of having a nervous breakdown or crashing out. Its like Im holding it all in which i personally think is having a negative effect on my health. All that anger, depression, internal pain and shyt for all these years and decades of that shyt, i have to watch my health
But the flipside of that is if i do crash out, flip out, or just implode then i believe that theres some people who are waiting for that moment to go "we told you so", ready to celebrate and applaud for my downfall and/or demise-death, want to see me incarcerated, and etc etc.

i only need to work around 35 hours a week combined with my side gig (computer and musical instrument repair) to cover our bills. im not rolling in money or anything, but im good. i always have at least $100 in my pocket. i honestly have no right to complain.
but it just feels so empty. like i was born too late to enjoy the world, you know? theres SO MANY people on the planet right now that you really cant think of many things to do that cant be googled. its frustrating. everything just feels so damn draining that by the time i get home at night i just wanna sip a beer, play some nintendo, and go to sleep.
i dont really have any advice for you, but i thought i'd let you know that youre not alone out there. people fukking suck man.
i just feel disappointed in people. im not naive enough to think racism in america is over, but it does seem like we got along better 20 years ago.Sorry to hear your depressed and feeling down too. Have you always felt like that or is it more recent? You ever try to reach out to a therapist or mental health counselor? Would recommend it.
Honestly, youre doing better than me in life in term of having a life. Im actually trying not to get bitter or angry thinking about "enjoying the world" so i try to avoid people so i dont have to have conversations delving into my life. Had high hopes 20 years ago, 18 to 38. But thats why that whole birth card shyt really is making me just think. Always having a tower moment.
