I Feel Like I Wasted My Teenage Years

I don’t like math or science. I hate equations—especially things like trigonometry. Honestly, I hate studying in general.

What I *do* like is playing sports, especially volleyball (not football). The problem is… I don’t even know what I truly like anymore. I’ve basically been rotting in my bed for the last 5–6 years.

When I was a kid, I loved going outside and playing sports a lot. I wasn’t good at them at all—I couldn’t even throw or catch a ball properly—but I still enjoyed playing. Unfortunately, my parents rarely let me go outside, so I spent most of my time alone in my room.

Later, around 2020 when PUBG was trending, I got into video games. Guess what? I wasn’t even good at that either. Seriously—what’s wrong with me?

I used to play on my father’s phone when he came home from work and asked him to buy me a decent phone, but we’re poor, so that never happened. Then I got obsessed with making money online and fell into redpill/sigma male content. That’s when my life really started going downhill.

I watched tons of those videos and slowly stopped talking to everyone in my class. I was already introverted, and this just isolated me more. After 7th grade, my studies became really weak because instead of studying after school, I spent all my time watching “how to make money online” videos.

I started countless theme pages and YouTube channels, but failed brutally every time—not because it was impossible, but because I was stuck in analysis paralysis and overthinking instead of being consistent.

Looking back, I feel like during school I should’ve focused on playing sports, working out, studying, and just having fun—instead of obsessing over money. Because of that mindset, I also missed out on teenage love and normal experiences.

I was a very sensitive kid and had a lot of anxiety in school. I honestly feel a lot of this happened because of my parents—they didn’t let me go out much and didn’t even feed me properly. Now I feel lazy, weak, and incapable of holding a job.

Sometimes it feels like my parents completely ruined my life.

Sorry to hear that bro but all you can really do is not look back at these times and continue living and making sure you do things that you enjoy now
