Guys being an adult is depressing, I want to go back to having no responsibilities

    You will when you’re 92. No matter how bad it gets remember there’s a warm poopy diaper in your future.

    How to get there depends.

    Bruh that's either the most optimistic or most terrifying thing I've read today and I can't decide which

    yeah, welcome to adulting, it’s all bills, stress and eventually diapers, nothing magical about it

    Being an adult is way better than being a kid for me. Yeah the responsibility and obligations suck tho so I get it

    There’s whole subreddits of posi pop punk kids actually. They’d like ur name in those tbh.

    There’s also tons of “hate this town” types of pop punk subs too tho

    It's not the responsibilities, it's the stakes. When I was a kid I had responsibilities. There were chores, school work, after school activities. But if I screwed any of those up I didn't run the risk of losing my job and not being able to support my family.

    Then you can remain Peter pan forever.

    No responsibility. No meaning. No rights.

    Simply unfulfilled potential.

    We all just want you to work until you're too tired to work... and then have your family go into debt keeping you well, and work until they are also too tired to work...

    I like being an adult. When I am financially on top of things, life is easier. Work is fine. Being able to do what I want, buy what I like. Being an adult is nice.

    I understand how you feel, adulthood is challenging. Having responbilities such doing laundry can feel tedious.

    Save like crazy and move to a poor country or in the middle of nowhere. Life is hard cause you’re constantly trying to keep up with bills

    I've been making it my goal to get rid of as many responsibilities as possible. No kids or partner, packed all my dishes but 1 of everything. Including 1 wine glass, coffee mug, travel mug, and jar. Same with plates.

    Killed off some subs, and moved to a place with no carpets to keep from having to vacuum.

    One day I hope to have the level of responsibilities I had as a teen. Earn money, sleep, eat, and relax.

    Every teenager that was in a hurry to move out, regretted it by the 6th month or sooner.

    We all wanted to move back in, but that was embarrassing as all Hell.

    Ok, quit your job and live off the grid for 6 months. Tell me how that works out for ya. Been there. A lack of purpose and responsibilities ain’t what it’s all cracked up to be.
