(sorry for bad grammar, on pc so autocorrect cant save me) The older ive gotten im starting realise we're all just slaves to our uncnsous brain that just wants to chase seretonin, when youre able to recogninse what our actions are, they are an attempt to feed the ego to prove to ourselfs that life is worth living by doing actions that are plesuuarble. And by doing those actions you justify existense. I cant imagine that this is all life has to offer, but i cant imagine there being more? Is this really the peak of existinse? At best in my life ill just feel constant contentness?

Just live and die
living (atleast a decent life) requires tenfold the effort and struggle. I hate every part of life, i hate that i have to restrict claories so i can look not subhuman, i hate attention i get from women its 90% just them following their monkey brain so they can have plesure in the moment. A lot of this isnt nice, im starting to really get discoureged on lving ngl

is contentment not good enough for you
life has no meaning until you make your own

Pleasure being the main main motivator for life seems like a silly idea. I couldnt imagine that being the rest of my life, just consant pleasure seeking.

Theres just a feeling in me thats telling me that theyre should be more than that. And me making my own meaning isnt even fully "my" own, im still a being shaped by my enviorment, there cant be anything thats "my own"

That's what my life is. I'm heavily deprived of good things in life and have more struggles than I deserve so you better believe I'll soak in every bit of pleasure there is to get whether it's gooning or actual hobbies like driving my car at 95 miles an hour on the highway having fun

Nihilism is
In a way the two are related. Too many nihilistic people don't even try to enjoy life though, and it's my firm belief you should enjoy whatever you can in life

I don't need to justify my existence. I'm alive and make the best I can of it
Wouldnt that just be your ego tho? Are you okay with being controlled by it? Im not asking this to be contrarian i genuinly wanna know.

its not like it'll only be contentment, ideally youll have moments that are especially enjoyable.
and yeah environmental factors will limit your freedom to some degree, but not entirely.
like the other guy in this thread, who finds enjoyment in driving
find something that makes you happy and latch onto that i guess

I don't overthink life to the degree you do. I simply try to get as much pleasure as I can while suffering as little as possible. Pretty good strategy when you've had as rough of a life as I have

I'm not sure if just pleasure-seeking would necessarily lead one to the conclusion that life is worth living, specially when it comes to the quest for meaning. Otherwise, you could just nuke a person's brain with SNRIs and they'd feel content all the time.
Personally, I think that a lot of my suffering stems from me not having found a purpose or goal that I feel justifies my existence. Sure, I do have plans to leave the shit situation I'm in rn, but it still feels incredibly superficial and meaningless.

In the end, having goals is pleasure seeking in a sense. Because you’re still looking to achieve something so it can benefit you I.e pleasure. I feel like even having those goals is still and even achieving them won’t do much for a person, if they see that human existence maybe is flawed in a sense? That’s just my thoughts tho

When I say "goal" I mean something closer to purpose, something you can struggle towards to give meaning to your life. It could be something you're able to achieve, or could be something that would be forever undone, a never ending task. Doesn't matter. The point is that struggling towards something that feels important is what gives the sense of purpose and meaning in human life.
If you want to label any sentiment that feels "right" as pleasure, sure, you could put that under the umbrella of pleasure, but then you'd have to say that suffering and other negative emotions can also be a form of pleasure. I think you get what I mean. You can't just put a bunch of complex emotions in the same box and say they are all the same thing.

Yeah, lol

there is no meaning to a life that ends, we are all going to die anyway and we wont remember anything, its like we never existed, we are going to be nothing, without consciousness. The only life that would have meaning would be (in my opinion) an immortal being's life, it would be infinite and therefore have actual meaning. All we can do is fill our lives with pleasures of our choice, drugs, sex, alcohol... or we can accept that its meaningless anyway

Living for one’s own pleasure is meaningless

Then be a slave and kill urself and waste the life youve been given instead of trying to achieve something retard
 
If you dont have a goal, look for one or wait til find meaning in life. Killing urself is corny and ignorant, i tried it too.
U cant just throw away the life youve been given. If u dont have any goals yet, at least try to moneymax and u eventually realize that there are things in life that are worth living for.
U could also try drugmaxing. Its not a solution but its better than giving up entirely
