I don't know. That's the thing - I don't know anything at all. Or is it just a lack of care? These rare things I actually know aren't so good anyway.
I can read. It's only thing I know I can do. Not just prose, also random bits of different semi-science papers, etc. It makes me look "smart", which is completely useless in common life.

At the moment, I'm just a failure. xD I have been trying to move out of my home for awhile to become an adult, but there is obsticals (spelled so wrong that even spell checker doesn't know wtf I'm trying to say!) that simply should not have existed in the first place but was allowed to develop by me and some loved ones for some time. It wasn't until the time I decided to move that I realize how dangerous my lifestyle is for my future. I won't go into much detail of my life story because it isn't of importance to any of you, but also because it seems depressing when it really isn't. I'll move out, get a job, get my ass kicked from life a bit until I get the hang of it, then try to go to school on top of it. I hope I never once stay in my comfort zone so I can make up for all the time I wasted as nothing more than an obese gamer with unrealistic dreams.

Crippling depression and crying myself to sleep every night for last 2-3 months for no apparent reason whatsoever. Then going to bed around 4 AM, waking up 3 hrs later, go to work for 8 hrs, going back home and then just stare blankly at my steam library while not being in the mood to play anything really. I feel like the only thing that keeps me from killing myself is that there will be on one left to feed my cat after i'm gone. Other than that, i'm pretty good

Caught myself thinking something along the same lines before deciding against getting a goldfish - but then I reconciled myself with the idea that I'd eventually start enjoying the whole thing, buy a tortoise, and become immortal.

Failure and lazyness goes for me.
I'm studying to become a doctor but this isn't going good, plus I don't have much social life nor I can spend time in games without being frowned down massively by my family, 'cause games and computers are the roots of all evil, so pretty much I'll sit here and just masturbate to death ;D

Bleh, I'd rather not. :P
If you must know, my life is pretty much always in front of my screen. And I like playing video games. I am not studying, I have no job, and I have no money. Sometimes I hate my life and everything, which is quite common in anyone's life. I also enjoy pizza. And pie, too.
TL;DR, I have no life except online.

That maybe just a current chapter of your life, the opportunities of building upon a new foundation, or getting a job, going to college or joining a club, all those opportunities are always available, it is up to those who want to go and take them, are you going to continue an easy life, or enter some challenges.
TLDR: When people stay in home online, the front door is always available, that is up to those who choose to try something new :)

So, someone necro'd this thread about looking back at this comment I remember how shitty I felt back then. So quick update for fun.
One year later
I'm still not a very social person outside of online, but I feel much better than I did last year. No more "I hate my life" moments, and I also got a pretty nice job as a work-at-home moderator for social media platforms (Facebook, Twitter, etc). Quite suiting for me, based on what I commented one year ago. I'm just really happy and a bit surprised to see the differences between back then and now. I'm no longer a depressed pile of disappointment. :D

Do not forget that with each period of depression, you become stronger and grow thicker skin! Not everyone is social but you will eventually come out of your bubble and become more out there as you grow older, so keep that head up high!

Eh, I don't feel like I need to be more social. I mean, it's not like I want to do anything with anyone, and I can work from home. It kinda makes me ask myself why I'd ever need to stop being so introverted. :P
Well, I just take things as they come. If I want to change how I am, then so be it, I'll make an effort to do so. Meanwhile, I don't see any reason to change my lifestyle. It's not perfect, but above all else it's not stressful, and I hate the stress/anxiety that socializing causes. :D

Oh no, being social is not for everyone true, as long as you keep positive, its all good.
Stress is wack yo! (If only you were hip like me, that sentence proves it)

Honesty. Better to be hated for who you are than loved for who you are not.

Gaming is huge part of my life, I like it a lot, but my PC is way old for the new AAA games which are coming out, so if I want to continue my hobby I need to find a job(I alredy found one) for the summer, because I'm in university and I'm not looking up for long term job. My friends are very importnat for me, It took a bit long to find really good one which I think will last for life.

Games. Books. Stories. Cats. The urge to talk. Feeling awkward because if I'm really enthusiastic I can't stop talking about stuff. Loving to listen to stories. Remembering way too many details about stories and stats and freaking people out with. Being kinda shit with stuff I'm not intrested in ;_; some classes Weird mood changes that can make me hate or absolutely love stuff (nature, going out, full attention to something). haalp. :D
Oh and puns and sometimes the total inability of remaining serious. Guess it's a defense mechanism

If you look at your life, what would you say "defines" you?
I assume everyone here is a gamer in some respect.
In a lot of cases, I bet some folks on here spend more time thinking/participating in gaming than they are work or school.
Some might treat work as more of a means to an end, meaning you don't necessarily care about "moving up in the company" or having a career... as long as you can pay the bills and happily fund your hobbies outside of that place. Or in the case of school, to graduate, get a job and be able to make that money for the purpose of funding said hobbies and the things in life that make you happy.
In other cases, I'm sure there are people who have gaming as the very last thing in terms of priorities. Where you would say your career really defines you, and gaming is more a quick distraction when you have some time away from it.
Maybe some of you are a little bit of all of this.
TL;DR - Where are your priorities in life? What part of your life would you say defines you? At the end of the day, are you spending your work/school day thinking of getting home and doing whatever it is you do? Or are you doing whatever you do at home, but thinking about work/school? Not to say one is ever better than the other, in the end it's what makes you happy that matters... but I'm just curious.
