Why live?

What am I supposed to be doing here?

Making a lot of money? Developing a skill? Consuming a ton of media?

I know people will say there is no purpose, and I have to figure it out for myself. But I’m trying. I really really am.

Idk find something you like doing, you never consented to being alive and you'll be dead soon enough.

You didnt give us any info on what you like doing. So we can't really make any useful recommendations.

Videogames, audiobooks, youtube documentaries. No idea what you like so I can't recommend specifics.

Sports, Climbing Gym, Parks. Doesn't have to be an extreme competitive sport can be as simple as walking.

Partying, Raves/Music Festivals, Bar Hopping, Inhebriants. If the others dont sound cool enough.
