when was your prime, /r9k/? can you narrow it down to the day?

>>36387497
I never had a prime

I've always been fairly pathetic, even if I had a "high point" at some time in my life it would be an insult relative to the success of others around me to call that a prime

The least shit my life has ever been is probably the time after I graduated high school when I did nothing but wait and browse /r9k/ stress free

August 23rd 2013. The day I maxed out everything in BF3. (Unlocks, not graphical settings). I also got all non exclusive dog tags.

the day i was born
it's been downhill from that point on

In 2010 when I worked for the U.S. Census. I was in charge of a small crew of people who went from house to house doing census surveys. I made very good money and had the respect of my peers and family. My health was also still very good.

Everything has gone downhill since. But I haven't forgotten that feeling of being adequate. Of thinking I didn't have to take shit from anyone because I was a working independent adult.

The day before my 18th birthday. I could run five miles, I wasn't underweight, I had a girlfriend that really wanted my babies, I had another girl that was actually sane and cool that really liked me, and I was just named valedictorian.

I mean mentally I was all kinds of fucked up and I'm much better off in that category these days. But damn if it doesn't hurt.

prob a little before i turned 14.
i was really interested in poetry, general writing, really motivated in spite of feeling like shit and had a clear direction on where i wanted to go in life.
i was at a restaurant across the street from a high school one day and this girl around my age walked real close to me and smiled.
that's the most interest a girl has ever shown in me.
it's only been downhill from then on these past 6 years.
worsening depression, suicidal ideation, and a realization that i dont really want to dedicate my entire life to someone.
still want a gf though, i think it'd help a little as selfish as that sounds, but i have some kinda bad acne scars so yeah.

Socially, it would have been my Junior year of high school. I went out with my friends often, we talked a lot, hung out at their houses a lot, ran into other people a lot. I'm pretty comfortable around them but they'd also hang out with other people a lot at the same time and it was always pretty obvious how uncomfortable I was though. I was also starting to lift around that time and was decently in the shape. It was also the time of my life I've felt the most depressed though. Soon after Junior year ended it all blew up and I just started isolating myself. Now I just feel apathy in general with some loneliness, I'm not as depressed as I was anymore though.

What's your degree in anon? Demography?

I took a few classes in the demography department at my school - really changes the way you think about the country. I have a lot of respect for the work the Census department does, and think people should be thought more about demographics in high school

elementary school was my prime, i'm not even kidding.

>>36387497
my first year of college
I was walking roughly 9 miiles a day, hit the school weight room on the regular, and lost over 60 pounds in 10 weeks
then I fucked it all up, got depressed and lost all my gains

right now i.e. 35

19-20. I had been going to gym and had made great progress. I was feeling confident, felt proud. Injured my shoulder, stopped working out. Now I'm 24 and tubby. I'll never get my early 20s back and I'm just getting less and less cute. Not that I was a chad before but at least I felt like I had something. It's so depressing.

The last time I was even happy was 5th grade and I guess my social prime was 9th and 10th grade.

I was 16, working on this hay farm, making the most moneyd I'd ever seen in one place, I smoked camel 99s and did insane amounts of coke to the point I nearly died twice.

The guy I worked with taught me how to sell coke with nothing but a straw, so I flipped all the money I made and made even more money, bought a Harley and drove it everywhere even though I only had a learner's permit. It was a small town, really small, couple hundred people live there now, even less back then so it didn't matter.

Took my summer girlfriend out to ice cream and a movie every other day, and bonfires every Thursday, Friday and Saturday.

Best time of my life, I wish I could go back to those days all the time.

2007-2014.
>living in a nearly-completely dilapidated house in extreme poverty
>absolutely disgusting living conditions
>just newly acquired major depression
>having constant anxiety attacks throughout the day
>very suicidal
>lost interest in keeping relationship with friends and family
>became a hermit
>became extremely paranoid
>literally going insane from the stress, hallucinating
>dropped out of school
>never left my "bed" -- my "bed" being a nearly destroyed couch in the livingroom because my bedroom had collapsed in on itself
I know it sounds bad, but my imagination was amazing back then. I was insanely creative and intelligent. I was batshit insane but I had some really sharp wit. Then I moved into an apartment with much better living conditions and got a job that pays me enough not only to sustain myself, but buy the things I like as well and everything went downhill from there. My brain is shit now. I feel dumb. My creativity is dead. There's a constant "fog" that clouds my thinking through every waking moment. I don't feel anything anymore. My days are dull. My life was shit back then but I miss it. I really do. I'm dumb and slow now. Everything's gray and boring. I'm forgetful now. I can't tell you what I ate for breakfast. I don't even remember if I ate anything for breakfast at all. I have fallen into routine. I feel like I'm dead.

I am nostalgic for the worst days of my life.

Rite now bitch
Fite me

How sad must your life be that you're buttmad over this guy's tale

>>36388595

Wait 2 years, then take the money you've saved and go be a bum - but with money.

That's the plan for me. I'm going to live in SEA or some place where everything is cheap as fuck and just draw shit and paint and maybe surf till the money runs out. Gotta get my brain back.
