Drinking and Drugs is not Real fun. Its destructive and is a result of unresolved issues, it may seem like its fun but those who do it are suffering.
i’m not sure it this will notify you guys but thank you very much for your replies :) i know i shouldn’t care much about it and i really never did until my boyfriend’s friend asked me about it and bc of that question, i started being aware of how i didn’t have those experiences so it looked like i was boring. i don’t really care for stuff like that and especially having anxiety and ocd i don’t really have such desire for it if all it’s going to do is affect me negatively. again, thank you guys for your words:)
You're welcome don't let anyone pressure you into doing things that you don't want to do or that isn't good for you by calling you "boring" or making you feel like you're "boring". Getting intoxicated to have fun is one of the most boring things anyone can do and shows that they lack a personality.
You’re welcome 😊 Do what you want and live yo life your way 😎
I went to CC and used good grades there to get to a top university in my state. It saves THOUSANDS of dollars, and by getting good grades in CC, you can apply to clubs or be invited to PTK and transfer with guaranteed scholarships which will make you save more money than going immediately into university from high school. OCD often has a comorbidity of anxiety, depression which can lead to substance abuse.. so be cautious.
drinking and doing drugs isn’t what makes highschool fun. real fun in highschool is about the moments and times you spent with friends, family, crushes, at dances, school trips, summer break, etc. drinking and drugs isn’t what makes the moment or what makes “fun”.
Why would doing drugs and getting shitfaced like other people do supposedly be the highlight of your college experience instead of... getting a degree?
There’s nothing wrong with community college 😂 I went to a CC for 3 years, then went to university.
@Nica definitely nothing wrong with cc! i just feel behind socially with people in my grade
I felt like that after high school. Now i don’t care since I know a lot of it is just expectations. I didn’t drink or party because that’s not the kind of person I am. I’m 26 and happy with my adolescence
I’m turning 30 in a few months and all I can think about how my Parents never took the initiative to actually help me when it came to my mental illness. Now my OCD is probably the worst it’s ever been and I feel like I can’t do anything. Like I’m trapped in a tunnel and there’s no way out. I’ve gone from job to job, never fully finished my degree due to severe OCD/depression never making enough money for professional help and being gaslighted all these years about my illness. I resent my family and myself for not trying hard enough to get better. If anyone can relate feel free to share. Anyways I pray this year will be the year I find my out.
Hey everyone, been doing ok this week but having a little bit of a rough moment rn. So I’m about a year and a half out of college and I still have yet to a real job job. I worked for eight months somewhere which was great but I decided it wasn’t permanent. Now I’ve been unemployed for about four months and OCD is really having a field day with it. Trying to deal with it and just keep applying everyday, but I always feel like my family and friends are looking down on me and/or just plain disappointed in me. Just wanted to kind of vent and get this out of my head before I go to bed. I hope everyone is having a great week!
I’m feeling kind of sad cause today was not a really good day in terms of my ocd. I was feeling kind of foggy/numb and that send me to spiraling. I’m 21 years old currently studying but my family has been having trouble with money for the last couple years(we’re just me and my mom) and I kinda want to get a job but everything is far from my home and I wouldn’t be able to return back at night, also it’s either way more expensive to move or the schedule wouldn’t let me take my classes. The point is that because of that every time my mom is stress tends to treat me bad, she speaks to me like I’m stupid or she just screams to nothing cursing all life and everything and that actually makes me feel soo bad and guilty for not doing anything, I know it’s hard for me to get a job that actually helps us without quitting school but that doesn’t stop me from feeling like I’m a burden. I want to help, I want to maybe hug her or something but I know she will be angrier and probably will reject it. So that’s it, I just feel like she punishes me for the stress she’s carrying and I get it but one day is happy and it feels like all love and the next is treating me like that, Idk it’s hard (also I feel like I shouldn’t be saying this cause it’s all my fault) 🫤
