Anybody else feel like they are always wasting time? I often

What do you mean by wasting time? What would you deem 'productive'?
Things like Netflix and drinking are instantly gratifying and not productive, however something like drawing or learning an instrument takes times to earn satisfaction, but would you consider those productive?

I don't really have any real talents I enjoy pursuing. There are a few things I'm pretty good at but I don't find those things particularly fun.

I think I may be addicted to instant gratification, to the point where anything besides the media equivalent of crack does nothing for me anymore.

I know this feeling 100% anon

I have to be doing something. I started lifting and studying math again just for something to do

Wtf am I doing on r9k again Jesus FUCK I'm going to be dead in a matter of decades and I'm on r9k instead of studying math?

FUCK MY LIFE. Going to go study join me anon read a book bye

Similar feelings, I preemptively feel guilt so that if others want to treat me like shit for being unproductive, at least I beat them to it. its not a good way to be, but i dont know how to stop.

Anon I have the same problem. I quit playing videa and swithced to just browsing the internet so I basically went from one fix to the other. Even right now I feel crappy for not doing homework but I tell myself I deserve to relax even though I know I dont. I no longer find joy in any talents I have which I have none as far as I can tell. It's like were here to just be mad at ourselves all the time. I hate it

Try to find something creative. I used to feel this all the time, still do sometimes, but writing helps a lot

Is this depression? Feeling nothing until it is time to be useful?

Do you think people who do have talents which they pursue just suddenly woke up and possessed them?
If you have even the slightest interest in something, there is something there. Once you begin investigating interests you begin to discover if you enjoy them or not.
This is very difficult for people like us to do because we are spoon fed satisfaction through the internet and it is easy and requires 0 effort but you must try to be mindful and resist these urges. Your mind is a fucking sponge for shit and learns behaviour based on your actions.

I am not bad at drawing, but there is so much better art on the internet I get immediately discouraged. I can't even come up with anything to draw most of the time, I just stare at a blank piece of paper and give up.

Do you ever hope to publish? Do you write in order to publish something in the future or is there some innate urge within you to write even if nobody ever reads your work?
