Hello, I am 17 years old, I am about to finish high school in 2 years, and here is my problem.
Basically, I feel like I am wasting my life and I don´t really know what to do to stop it. Most of the time I am really bored and un-enthusiastic and I spend all the time by procrastinating.
Yes, many people do this, unless they realize that they are wasting time and they get no satisfaction from it. So they start to do something that is worth doing (eg. hobby, getting a better job, education etc.)
But my problem is that I fully realize that I am wasting my life yet I REALLY DONT KNOW WHERE TO HEAD. I am not singinficantly good at anything and I dont have any significant hobbies so I dont get too much ideas about what to set for a goal. But when I do set a goal, soon I realize that it is either too useless, or the ratio of the work to get it done to the satisfaction it gives you when its done is really low.
It is very hard to explain but my friend says it means that I have too high expectations and I realise I can´t fullfill them, so I dont even try to fullfill them...thats probably the closest simple explanation of my problem.
It makes me very angry/apathetic( "I dont care about anything" like), unconfident and vulnerable to stupid things like alcohol and weed, which are a temporary relief from this situation.
Thanks for answering me.
