Stop smoking weed. That shit is for the occasional chill out and maybe sex. That's it. It's not a daily indulgence.

It fucks with your dopamine production, which you need for motivational behaviour.

I only smoke when I'm home, these days I'm usually out for over a week and home for 3 or 4 days tops. Still that does make sense.

Why bother caring about anything? Just enjoy driving around the country, smoking weed and shitposting. That's a fine life. Don't be ashamed.

Yeah but see now my idyllic lifestyle is in jeopardy if I keep being late. Also I don't bring weed with me in the truck because I'm not a complete fucktard. Just most of one.

sounds like depression, or exhaustion. Think back when you were little and write down things that you remember, in chronological order and soon you will have an answer. also visit a psychologist or therapist.

I have been diagnosed with depression, tried some meds, few worked at all and the ones that did had some shitty side effects. I'd like to go to a psychologist again but it's almost impossible to make appointments with the kind of work I'm doing right now.

do you like class A driving?

and when was the last time you took a vacation?

I kinda do like it, but I hate my boss (he's my moms boyfriend, there's a whole thing I don't want to get into right now) and I hate the piece of shit International truck I'm stuck with, I used to drive a Kenworth, it was so much better in every way. I've had time off work, but I can't remember the last time I've had a real "vacation" or taken a trip that wasn't for work. It's been years.

I guess the last thing I really gave a fuck about was the 66 Pontiac Lemans I had, I wrecked it last summer and lost my apartment that same month so I couldn't keep it and fix it. I had that car since I was 18, blew the first engine, kept it in my mom's driveway for a couple years while people kept ringing the doorbell trying to buy it, finally got a job and swapped the engine. It was like the one accomplishment in my life that I could point to, and 5 minutes of driving pissed off in the rain killed all that.

Well exercise is the cheaper alternative, it seems like you have cortisol in the system which basically stress. Now I mean stress in the primative way, think back to in the cave man, they had cortisol because the brain had the flight or fight response. cortisol is basically the adrenal function. not using it causes fatigue, slows down the immune system, decreases sleep and so on. when you exercise you use up the cortisol in the system. and you should have a better outlook. but im no doctor but youre free to look it up.
