Yknow, I've been realizing recently (inspired somewhat by Ketchup) that you can just do stuff. Get on your bike, explore the town. Get in your car, find a hiking trail. It's the same sense of exploration as gaming but without the screentime hangover!
When You Realize You Have Free Will:
But fr I'm glad you're trying random **** too, I wasted many days in my room trying to find value in artwork and creating things, but I feel way more fulfilled at the end of the day when I go out and screw around in the real world instead.
I used to sometimes get this fleeting feeling that I was missing out on a lot that other people my age were doing (stuff like parties, drinking etc) and while I wasnt really interested in doing things I saw as wrong, i still was kind of jealous of people with low inhibitions that were able to amble through life without any concern fur the consequences of their actions. But then one day I had a revelation that I have basically no inhibitions at all, I just use my lack of it for awesome things instead of stupid ****.
Good news, I just said beddy by to my parents and it wasnt brought up. It may be brought up tomorrow but there is a chance it wont be. I am rather happy it didnt go down.
I hope things stay chill, it's rough having a parent that goes through periods of hostility like that. I don't really know if it's ever gonna change, but I do hope he gets bored of it or something.
