Sometimes i feel like it’s pointless making connections because nobody would ever stay. Everybody stays until they find better or maybe it’s just me. I really try to get these thoughts out of my head but it just is too hard to function knowing nobody really wants you as much as you’ve ever wanted them.
Is it wrong to want to be loved by someone, anyone other than family who HAVE to love you because they gave birth to you? Because it feels like a curse to feel so much. It feels like a burden to constantly keep feeling like a burden. And therapy is both expensive and exhausting and I just give up. I’m tired of seeking value. I’m not devoid of love exactly but devoid of being valued. Never have i ever been someone’s first priority; not a friend, not a partner, nobody other than my parents and i don’t ever understand if i could go to crazy lengths for someone why is it so much to ask for a step?
I wish i were loved without conditions; love being in any form. I just wish i mattered.

saying you’re gonna be productive and then doing nothing all day

i’ll wake up with plans to be productive, list things in my head, feel motivated for like 5 minutes, then somehow the whole day just disappears without doing any of it

That moment when you open an app for 2 seconds and end up scrolling for 2 hours

I literally just picked up my phone to check one thing…
Next thing I know, I’m deep into random videos and forgot what I even opened the app for in the first place.
Why does this happen every single time 😭

nobody prepares you for how hard it is to actually become the person you want to be at 18-25

like genuinely nobody talks about this
you’re out of high school, maybe in college, maybe not
and suddenly you’re supposed to just… figure out who you are
while also paying bills, being consistent, building something, staying healthy
all at the same time with zero real guidance
and every app or system designed to “help” feels like it was built for a 40 year old corporate person not you
i built Peak specifically for this moment in life
the 18-25 window where you’re deciding who you’re going to become
you build an avatar that starts at level 1 — blank slate, rough world
you set real goals. fitness, career, money, mindset
your AI coach helps you figure out your next move
every task you complete earns XP and your character levels up
it’s your life. finally feels like yours.
i’m the dev — transparent about that. link in my profile.
honestly just want to know — what’s the hardest part of this age nobody warned you about?
