TLDR; I can´t handle all the responsibilities of adult life e.g. washing clothes, grocery shop, decide dinner, make dinner, pay bills, pay food etc. adult life is too hard with no reward for all the hardship the only thing I get from the hardship is keep existing to continue this horrible cycle. I miss my carefree childhood and teenage years with little to no responsibilities life was so simple back then it was all about living life to its fullest and boy did I..
I am in many ways a man-child I so desperately yearn for my youth mainly childhood but I could even settle for my exiciting teenage years which also was a time I still had style and personality.
I am NEET so I don´t do anything but still all the responsibilities of adult life is so hard as a child and teenager life was so carefree I didn´t have to wash my own clothes, worry about paying bills, or being able to afford food. Grocery shopping, deciding what to make for dinner and cooking that dinner was my parents job although I of course helped peeling potatoes and stuff like that sometimes but for the most part all this stuff was my parents job our only job was school and having fun I miss those carefree years so much.
I also don´t have a car anymore so it takes me 45 minutes to walk till and from the nearest grocery store plus additional time to do the shopping and then it takes a long time too to cook the food, clean up after it. I so miss even being a teenager because life was truly so carefree it was just going to school and have fun and live life now I desperately yearn to be a child or teenager again but I am constantly reminded of being a 25 year old adult, people I used to know have children the men are balding everything I used to know has changed I wish life was a Never Land where I would never grow up because it scares me and breaks my heart seeing everyone growing up to become adults like I think of parents while still deep down inside me is a child or teenager who just wanna live a carefree exciting fun life.
All these adult responsibilities on top of my physical and mental problems are just too much it´s an endless battle with no reward for all the hardship I am going through I mean what is the point then? It feels like insanity to keep suffering, struggling through adult life with no reward for it at least with severe depression as a teenager I still had friends, style, personality and live such an exciting life so there was a reward amongst all the misery there isn´t now. Adult life is just so incredibly hard and I can´t take it and that is even without working or going to school also all the calls I have to make myself as an adult like an extra gasbill I got I had to take care of that myself, or if something is broken in the apartment to get someone to fix it and all sort of stuff like that.
I miss the innocence, ignorance and carefreeness of life before adulthood before those dark times life just seemed to go way slower life was all about having fun and adulthood felt a million years away even as a 16 year old teenager because we had been children/teenagers for 16 years so it felt like those wonderful years would last forever also stuff like a job was never a concern for me even though in Denmark we start talking with guidance counselors from the 7th grade to find out what we wanted to work as when we grow up I was never worried because those were problems for the future and in the future I would know what I want to do because I would be an adult and they have everything under control at least that was my assumption. Again this became much longer than I intended so I might not get as many if any readers I just needed to vent, I miss my youth so much and even if all my other problems didn´t exist I wouldn´t want to live in a world past adolescence preferble not in a world past childhood but as I already said even my teenage years was so exciting that I wouldn´t want to have missed that but adulthood has nothing for me I lived more in 6 months at 16 than I have the last 5 years as an adult I just want it to end my life ended a long time ago now I am just existing.
