..the end..

[voidmain]

everytime you're told you're being childish in your spare time and non-important moments, just take that as compliment. You're doing the right thing

[talenstout]

DON’T ABANDON FUN. ADULTS CAN STILL HAVE FUN.

[kennystevens]

I must not be grown up because I'm still excited to see TheTekkitRealm videos

[xcarriecatx]

I feel this video. When I was a kid I always enjoyed anime coloring books, I had a cool DBZ one. The other day I thought of buying one so I could relive the nostalgia, then I was hit with a wave of guilt and anxiety at the thought of spending time coloring when I could be bettering myself. It's sad I can't enjoy things like I used to.

[FynnHulley]

Keep doing YouTube. Your videos are amazing. Don’t stop.

[Paul_Lane]

Very introspective video. As someone who’s been doing the grind for over 35 years, I get where you are coming from. Even though it’s rigged, you still must find what brings you joy. It get hard at times but you have to find what that is for you. Joy comes from within not from what others tell you is joy. Thanks for sharing and expressing what’s going on in your mind.

[Fruitcuppt]

I gave this exact speach to my mom about a week ago and she looked at me like I was a bizarre creature so I thought I was the only one thinking like this 😭

[CyrusShameliOfficial]

Sigh, it's sad how true this video is. Thank you so much for speaking the truth, I thought I was the only one feeling like this, glad I'm not alone.

[kingdomsbricks]

I think one of the issues of this feeling is world issues. I love be alone and feel most happy when I am but it’s slowly starting to wear off and be more painful then anything. Like you said the things I used to enjoy are not fun anymore.

[Pelican_t]

Well I can agree on this video. Because for me all my terrible past experiences stack up on me absolutely annihilating my mental health in the process. As I grow up everything gets worse until my end. I put 100% of the blame on school.

[RobinsNestGaming]

i completely get this, I used to be stuck in what seemed like a never ending cycle until i decided i had enough of it and went a different direction. I also remembered that my Aunt has told me in the past to never lose the kid side of myself, its what's keeps us going

[colychan]

I think there's a lot more that goes into this, but the biggest factor (in my opinion of course, and I'm no expert by any means) is just the expectations of others. It's looked down upon to be different and weird to be excited or happy about little things that other people might not care about. Top it off with the constant social media (specifically tiktok) that almost forces you to need constant stimulus. Not to say tiktok is a bad thing, but too much if it is, and I think that changes a lot of people's outlook on things and they might not even realize it.

[FNGecko]

It's a mindset... I'm always excited for tomorrow, never been to Disney world and probably never will 😂. Lots of people struggling with depression need a change in perspective I'm 36 and love life and constantly find something to dig into! The old people who don't mind their own business are the ones who were bored in their 20s-30s...

[damianyt]

This video hit me right where it hurt. Playing games feels more like a task but for me life is more fun when you have friends and people around you that make you feel important and needed. A lot of people take friendship for granted and I say that because that's not a luxury I have. I have a family that I don't get along with so I'm basically fodder at this point. When you wake up life's much more enjoyable if you have something to look forward to everyday and I noticed that throughout my childhood I almost never really knew what to look forward to but I still was looking forward to the day but now it's the question mentioned in this video. What's the point? An example of this experience when I went to a summer camp with friends for the first time since the pandemic in 2022 and we stayed for 2 days. Im a person who doesn't wake up early but when I told them that we should go jogging in the morning I thought I wouldn't wake up at that time but I did. I looked forward to what was gonna happen. I felt happy. But it was only temporary. I no longer experience that. Now, I just sleep because dreams are the best way to escape reality and even when I can't seem to fall asleep I still lay in bed day dreaming not wanting to go through another boring day. I'm graduating Highschool and I know what's waiting for me after that and all I can say is I hope I can still live to see another day. God bless everyone.

With the Disney argument, a lot of people don’t like Disney as it is more of a big profit organisation than a Fun land.

But when it comes to excitement I think when we are young, we see excitement differently to how are parents saw excitement. For me i was born in the late 90s and I grew up with video games and movies. For me a lot of the stuff we grew up with in the early 2000s were way more advanced than back in the old days. Nowadays nothing is really all that different because we’ve become as advanced as we could really.

I’m soon heading into my mid 20s and rather than playing video games and watching movies. I’ve become a lot more maturer and I’ve found other ways to excite me, unsurprisingly it tends to be the more simply things that make me happy. For me I go for many walks around the country, visiting many beautiful landscapes I’ve never been before.

Now that I’m the legal age to drive, I’ve gotten into building cars especially track cars which I do with my friend, I’ve always was a fan of cars ever since I was a kid and I’ve been going on road trips and been building cars with friends. Everyone has a hobby that becomes their new excitement.

And finally the last thing that gets me excited is being round with my friends. I think with gaming why I loved it was before I could drive, it was the only way to communicate to my friends online and spend time with them, and as they get older they start dating and start going out to places like bars and gigs which become more exciting than gaming. These are the moments that create great memories and I believe that if our grandparents and our parents found ways to live happy lives, then I think we can all too! Remember, somethings it’s the simpler things in life that can make life truly exciting

[samuelvieira]

I’ve seen somewhere that human brains get fully emotionally developed at 25 years, after that feelings are not as strong as they were on younger ages. But imo, to add, the only thing that satisfies us is learning/experiencing new things, and as those things we are used to are not new or creative, they loose value in time.

[TheProfessorExplains]

It’s not school. It’s a collective grief that we haven’t processed yet because none of us know how. I spent something like 24 years in school and I used to be the happiest guy around. Then the pandemic hit.

At the least, we all lost years of our lives, years of making memories, and years of happiness. Honestly, can anyone remember a “happy time” from 2020-2022? Me neither. And that’s talking about the people who came out the best. Lots of people lost loved ones and are in even worse shape.

Then we came out and got hit by “the New Normal”, a world where everything cost more and doing anything was more of a struggle. We got used to staying in, so staying in to save money was easier for us. We got used to being alone, so being alone was easier.

Many of us had hobbies we truly enjoyed, but we have never gone back to them post-pandemic. I was happiest when I was playing golf or flying my plane, I haven’t done either since the pandemic.

We are one of the most adaptable creatures on earth, it’s why we are so successful. But it can work against us. Most of us forgot how to live and enjoy life and now we are used to how we are living. I haven’t truly laughed in years, I honestly don’t even remember how it feels.

So the reason why we are so unhappy is because we went through a traumatic experience that we haven’t recovered from, and that grief has prevented us subconsciously from living our lives the way we used to. When you combine that with the fact that we forgot what happiness feels like and have adapted to a life without it, it’s not shocking that we are where we are.

[edwardnowakowski]

Honestly, I finally got a way to fight that feeling when I became an uncle. My nephew is the brightest ray of light in my world, and I spend time with him whenever I can

[soldjahboy]

I'm 44 years old and still enjoy all kinds of things. I still play Minecraft with my kids and friends, and have fun. You're only as old as you feel... and you are the only one in control of your own excitement and destiny. Things get boring and dull when you start to let yourself become absorbed by the machine. School is government indoctrination camp. Don't let the programming take you over...

[alexandersalter]

The education system in general needs major reform. A “one size fits all” approach isn’t suitable when everyone learns differently. Never give up on your dreams and goals, escape the matrix!
