Original Reddit post

Getting a phone is unequivocally the worst thing that has ever happened to me. I’ve recently come to the realization that I have no real interests, skills, or hobbies. Instead of building social skills in middle school, I spent my time scrolling on TikTok. Instead of learning or doing work in high school, I outsourced my thinking to AI and cheated through my classes, spending my time scrolling. I now realize that I know practically nothing. I have no real interests, no way to spend my time. I’m not passionate about anything. I’m not competent at anything. My dopamine receptors are completely wrecked and I can no longer learn. I can’t persevere through hardship. I can’t find joy in life. I can’t make friends. I can’t properly interact with people. I am no longer an interesting person. I don’t know what I want in my future. I don’t know how to like things anymore. I am so boring. I am so far behind my peers in terms of ability to think, learn new information, as well as background knowledge. There is not a single thing original about me. I am passionless, ambitionless, and lost. I feel sick that I wasted my youth scrolling. Millions of minutes spent with absolutely no gain. I’m not sure how to rectify this. I need help. submitted by /u/Individual_King4750
