Digital.

As a kid I owned a lot of physical games, and while I agree with your points towards physical, it doesn't do a lot of good if they stop working. Which most of mine have since I didn't take good care of my discs as a kid.

The only problem I have with digital is the memory it takes up. I have a constant problem on my Switch of only having about 6-7 games installed and having to delete one whenever I want to play a new/different game. And this is considering I've got a 64 GB SD card in addition to the 32 GB system storage.

Ah man, I dont exactly have many games that I owned as a kid, but I remember all the scratches on the back of the disc that my PS2/Dreamcast wouldnt read, lol. I take care of everything now, definitely learned my lesson.

Which do you prefer? I personally prefer owning the physical copy. I like seeing my collection increase and I can always lend it/sell it if I no longer have interest. I downloaded FFVII/FFVIII on my Switch, but just ordered the physical copy. I do understand the convenience of having digital though.

nobody knows with how much anxiety im dealing before meeting new people or trying new things, jobs even the simplest things. i never let it stop me from doing the things anyway, it most often turns out well. but the unpleasant feeling never goes away.

Getting a new job/interviewed used to spike my anxiety. I just felt like I was wasting time and they wouldnt hire me because there are a lot of others they can hire. There have been times where Im at the location for the interview, but never actually walked in to get interviewed. Im pretty confident now and do well at interviews but man...those days were hard.

i have seriously low self esteem to the point where i think i dont really have many serious friends even tho i probably do. but i constantly feel lonely and that i don't have any close companions. that's not true but in my mind i've made it that way. i have tons of people that i talk with on a daily basis and different circles of friendship groups but i always feel detached from them in a way. it caused me a lot of painful nights when i was trying to hook up or date when i was younger because i always thought i was never good enough for anybody

i'm also terrified about getting older because i feel like i'm failing at life right now compared to my friends. and also i find myself constantly comparing myself to other people and feeling shit because i only see the negative points of myself and what they have and i don't. social media also makes that even worse for me.

there's some things that i need to do such as start driving but the fear of not passing cripples me. i don't have any confidence in passing since in my mind i'm already a failure at driving and i know i won't be good at it. but i also feel the pressure of needing to drive. both the failing feeling and the pressure together gives me a horrible type of dread in my stomach which makes me feel like there's no way out

Dont let those voices win. I maybe have 3 pretty good friends in my life and thats about it. Even then, theyre just people I hang out with mostly. I cant say I have a true friend. For example if I was in a rough situation, theyre not the type to check up on me, help me out, etc. Im fine with that though.

I do have an uneasy feeling about getting older for the same reasons you listed. I try not to compare myself with others because everyone does things at their own pace/time...but it IS hard not to compare yourself to others. I actually dont have any social media anymore and I think it helps a bit...but totally get what youre saying.

Just go for it! Its funny because when I was younger I thought Im
never gonna drive. I had multiple dreams where I just crashed into things and straight up could not drive. If youre talking about the computer test, I failed my first time. It was a bummer, but I just had to come back at a later date to retake it and I passed. For the actual driving test, its easy as long as you dont overthink it. The parallel parking might be tricky at first, but if you practice youll be good. Our minds are too strong sometimes, dont let it overpower you. Easier said than done, but we gotta conquer those thoughts.

My father left us when I was young, parents divorced. He chose to live almost 2,000kms away. We found out he was dead last year, and that that happened almost 20 years prior, he made no apparent effort to get in contact with us. And mother, she paid more attention to my sisters than my brother or me. As for trusting them, not really. Maybe my brother, but not with my life.

Wow, thats pretty rough, but I feel you. Youre the older or younger brother? I have an older brother and weve physically fought a few times over stupid shit...but every time he threatens to kill me by stabbing me. Me being paranoid I just believe him, because why would you say that? Im still here obviously lol, but I take that seriously and just leave the house when he says things like that. Im blessed to have had both parents in my life. RIP to my father, but my mom is one of the very few I can trust with my life. I hope you find someone that youll be able to truly trust.

I cant sleep or eat properly

Ah man, thats me. Im on the east coast and struggle very much to fall asleep. When I do fall asleep, I could never sleep all the way through. I wake up multiple times throughout the night and at times its hard to go back to sleep when I do wake up.

As for eating properly, I love to eat. I love food, lol. I have a never ending hunger (Im hungry now). I would eat breakfast/lunch/dinner with snacks in between but Im always hungry still. I also eat when Im bored. I just love food a lot. I eat very fast too, not sure if that has anything to do with it...Im always overeating though. How about yourself?

- My self-esteem is low. That said, it has got better over the past few years. It's not where I want it to be though

- I have trouble approaching new people in order to socialise with them. Pretty much all of my friends irl are people who reached out to me at first

Youre seeing improvement at least! Im a pretty friendly person, but I used to be the same exact way. Never initiated anything first, it was always others...but I was super antisocial then. This is at least a decade + ago. So glad I got over that. Would you say youre antisocial?

See, I drive a semi-truck so getting high before work is strictly off the table. It does help that i absolutely fucking love my job.

That is an insane amount of weed, I used to smoke like that from 16 until about 24, then I realized that I didn't need that much weed throughout my day. I toned it back to only smoking my weed when I was at home after work or I'd take a couple pre-rolled out to the bars when I went out. I still ended up smoking a lot but that's because everyone I know is a pothead. Nowadays like I said, I smoke on my days off or when I get home from work and it still helps.

Oh yea, definitely cant be smoking while driving a semi-truck. I started smoking pretty late. Started smoking heavy around 24-25. There were a couple of years where if added up, I probably didnt smoke for 7 days in a year. I was coughing up tar/dark phlegm and mix that with my paranoia I thought I was gonna die. I coughed up blood one time and then didnt smoke anything for 6 months, but I was miserable in the beginning. I started doing edibles recently, but I really just want to stop it control it. Life just sucks sometimes, smoking just makes everything feel alright, but I know its just a temporary feel.

Marijuana helps with the irritability of my depression for sure, like if I smoke first thing in the morning or when I get home from work(because I won't smoke before or during work) no matter what happens I can deal with it rationally and with a smile on my face, but if I don't it can be hard to even find the will to get high.

I agree 100%, it has helped a lot..but I dont want to depend on it. My girlfriend and I used to smoke an eighth a day. We were dropping around $700-$800 a month strictly on marijuana. I would smoke before work because I hate everything, but smoking made things tolerable. I gotta start treating it as a reward or something.

I'm notoriously horrible at replying to people's messages. I don't do it on purpose to be an asshole, but it happens a lot. I will see someone text me, and because I have the attention span of a fucking rock I will instantly think of something else and forget entirely that they texted me at all. Then a few hours later I casually check my messages and see that I ignored several people ._.

When people give me their number, I go out of my way to hammer it in that I'm a shitty texter and not take it personally

I do similar things. Ill receive a text, take a glance and continue doing what I was doing. Then eventually throughout the day Ill check my phone and realize that I havent texted the person back lol. It doesnt happen too often, but there are days when I just dont wanna talk/text/reply to anyone.

My biggest flaw is my apathy which leads to sloth. I really just don't give a fuck about what's going on around me most of the time and that leads me to not doing things I really should. Having kids has made me make an effort to overcome it because I really really don't want me kids having a father like that, but there are days where I just can't. Now these flaws could also be due to my underlying depression that I suffer from because when I am on my medication it is a lot less prevalent, it's just when I get off the meds it is very hard to find the drive to get back on them.

Ah man, that really sucks. Im not on medication or anything, but I feel the same way when I dont/cant smoke. I just dont care about anything and lay in bed all day. Smoking gets me out of the sad state that I feel, but when theres no more it gets pretty bad. Ive improved, I used to sell my video games and consoles days when I couldnt take it anymore, but Ive definitely improved. Hope you overcome your depression.

My back room is absolutely ridiculus

Full on gaming PC capable of AAA games at ultra and all of the controller hookups for emulators
PS4
Switch
Wii U
PS3
Xbox 360
Wii (with GC bc)
PS2
PSP
DS
3DS

I only currently have a PS4 and Switch, but when I was younger my brother and I shared all those systems except Xbox 360. Then I moved out and he held on to them (besides the portables). Thats crazy to have all those though, great collection!

I buy way too many video games. It's honestly an addiction to scour Ebay and Amazon and click buy it now to get games I probably won't ever get around to playing for the next few years.

This is slowly becoming me. Im also somewhat a perfectionist when it comes to video games, so I wont move on to the next one until main story, all weapons, side quests, etc are all complete. As of late Im trying to get 100% trophies for FFVII Remake.

I care too much and love too hard. I also work too hard.

I can relate to this one. Used to work hard in my late teens/early 20s, but only got rewarded with more work. I do care and love too much though.

Another one is I stay up til mornings and sleep til 3-4pm. Its hard to change.

What do you consider to be some of your flaws? For me its being paranoid. My father passed away 2 years ago and it only elevated it. Almost everyday I think Im gonna die. If Im on a bus I think the bus driver will go rouge and drive the bus off a cliff, I think the boiler will blow up and get me, I feel like someone will shoot me as Im showering and plenty of other examples. Its actually a bit funny just typing it out, lol...but I cant control my mind to not think this way. Anyway, this is my first topic on here...so hello all!

Go back and read what you posted before. That in no way relates at all to what youre saying here lmao

Live and let live, but the moment you hate on me for not using preferred pronouns due to the way Ive spoken my whole life, then the whole live and let live goes out the window. Its not on purpose, a slip up here and there, but if you go all monster mode on me for a mistake then yes...feels good someone is out there going against the new norm.

Pretty sure I said it already, not as much detail, but there it is. A lot of you fail to understand all of the transgender pronouns are a more recent thing. Ive been speaking my whole life a certain way, its not naturally gonna change from one day to the other.

That you're oppressed for being brave enough to believe in going out of your way to be an asshole to people? Yes, that was my point

The point that honest mistakes trigger you so much that youre blind by hate rather than simply correct my mistake. Im not going out there purposely calling a transgender he/she/him/her, idk what you guys even wanna be called nowadays. If someone transgender were to introduce themselves as hi, Im Charles, I prefer you go by she, then ok, I get it. I will call you she, but if Im unaware and call you he without knowing your preferred pronoun and they get like how you just got...then you get no respect from me. Again, thanks for making my point.

I would agree with that. Nowadays if you dont agree with their lifestyle, you are automatically a bigot/transphobic.

Do you have to do that under the get my payment link? Because I can't access it.

Yes, when I try accessing it, it gives me a few minutes wait time before it loads up. You put in your SSN, DoB, address and zip code. After that itll tell you if youre eligible or not and in that same screen itll say if you need to add more info aka direct deposit. I did all this and it just says well have a payment date for you once we update, etc. And it shows it in the manner well get it...if you filled out direct deposit itll show last 4 numbers of your account. I assume itll let you know as well if youre getting it mailed.

Wait, so even though they obviously know my banking info because they took money out easier this year when I owed, they can't use that for direct deposit?

Thats exactly what I thought. Like, you guys have my direct deposit info to withdraw/pay my taxes, but cant use it to deposit a check?Doesnt make sense, but just telling you my experience.

Anyone that hasnt gotten it yet, if you owe taxes, theyre not going to send it unless you update your direct deposit. When I checked the IRS site and put my info, it said the IRS was missing my direct deposit info even though I set it up for them to pay my taxes through direct deposit on the 15th. I believe those who got refunds have gotten it today, but if you owe taxes...you might wanna check the site out unless you prefer a mailed check.
