I feel like shit, and i think im addicted to video games, and a lot more and yea its gay

I used to love to do things w/ people, etc.. Its now summer, no school so yea.
last summer i was always out and doing something, now all i do is work and when i get home i sit down and play fuckin video games. Once in a while theres a break where i go chill w/ my friends, then that next day, go home after work and play videogames.

Today my friends called me up from up north camping, we always went together, but now i work and they don't so i can't go. it really put me down,
this is my first time having this expiernence, and it sux.
Hearing everyone up there all having a good time and me sitting here at home waiting for tommorow to come so i can go to work just made me feel like shit

I love playing onling games and shit but there a part of me that wants to take this computer and xbox and toss them out the fuckin window so i am forced to start going out and doing something after work...

I duno what im even saying, sorry im just venting

Anyone else feel the same? what do ya reccomend i should do? Toss my comp and xbox !

just teasing.. yeah welcome to the rest of your life lol. work sucks. that's why people say do something you love and you'll never work a day in your life. otherwise you'll pretty much always feel like a part of the rat race. that's a part of growing up.
If you want to do things though, you make the time for them, and when you do, then the things ya do squeze in mean that much more and you enjoy them more than going out all the time.. that gets old after a while too if it's all you do.

on the other hand, if your friends don't work, and you do.. who's going to have moeny and who isn't?

dmeyer, i know excatly where you are coming from. when i was in high school, my junior year, i moved 15 minutes away from my school. my mom had to drive me to school everyday. i was too lazy to get a job, and my parents werent going to pay for my driving class. so on the weekends, when everyone was doing something, my ass was at home playing video games, cause none of my friends were going to go 30minutes out of there way to pick me up, and drop me off. it really sucked. but hey, look on the bright side, when you do go out with your friends, who has the money? you!

cant tell if you are just making a statement or actually wanting to know, or both... but its good charlotte - boys and girls I believe.

i am in the same situation right now. I will be a senior in high school next year, I work a 40+ hour week and my friends don't work at all. They will go to lakes, hang out, do wahtever and call me and I always have to say no because of work. I dont really have the video game thing or any other addiction, I mostly just hang out with them late that night, but the work part sucks.

Still, nothing really beats getting that fatty paycheck.

From the age of 12 I always wanted some type of a job so I could have money to spend. It was mainly cutting grass or odd jobs for people in the yards. From there I worked at gas stations and places like that. When I was 16 I got a job at a huge lumber and plywood mill on the weekends which really sucked because everyone was out getting drunk but me, we start young up in northern Alberta. I had many jobs to keep trying out different things all the time. A few jobs were swamper on flat bed and picker trucks which is like a helper. Then I tried heavy equiptment running cats and track hoes and machines like that. Another was pump jack maintenance in the oilfieild, then oilfield maintenence which took me away from home often. Going to school and working these jobs was really hard on me, I would miss my friends and miss out on lot's of fun. When I finished high school I hit the oilfield business and would have to travel hundreds of Kilometers away at times which was a downer because I'm still young and young guys need to have fun or we lose our minds. I would always feel almost sick to my stomach thinking about all the good times I was missing with my boys back home that were having a blast without me. I would almost want to quit at times but while they were out getting shit faced I was makeing good coin and had things to show for it like a dirtbike, quad, skidoo, a car and truck. Work does suck crusty balls but now I look at all my friends that were lazy and wouldn't get jobs and just got money from there parents all the time and they have nothing to show for it but a drinking problem. I know how you feel guy and it does suck. Don't toss your stuff out, just don't get on them after work and plan something to do out of the house. You will feel a huge load better even if it's going for a walk. Just find a young hottie to go with and it will be kick ass then. Hope you feel better soon.
