I barely even watch tv. I cancelled Netflix for now since most stuff I've seen. I read maybe 2 books a year. I have like no hobbies. I finally got a console after my gaming days ended like 10 years ago and I barely play at times.

I'm just waiting for my 2 kids to get a bit older so we can do more stuff like travelling or game together.

Like nothing gets me excited about life. It's all just meh.

I'm surprised I don't have depression and won't be shocked if I get it.

If half of your summary about how life is going involves tv/vidya games you're doing something wrong.

That's the thing I barely do anything. I might eventually join a local sports team once my kids are older. Travel a bit like road trips with the kids. But I have no other interests really. I dislike concerts. Eating out rarely since I enjoy cooking.

Work is alright but financially I could semi retire but even pushing myself for more money is just for my kids sake. I barely socialize after work. Don't have friends to hang with. And even that it'd be having a beer and shooting the shit with a coworker.

Tbh it doesn't sound like you might get depressed, it sounds like you already are. It isnt just a switch that flips and now you are super sad all the time. Just not wanting to do anything and not giving a shit is a part of it.

Latest patch >_>

They'll be 3 and 7 in the summer. I keep up with home maintenance and chores which isn't much but life the past year or 2 seems meh. I don't even care to date women since I've been separated. Most women just annoy me. Peoples negativity is annoying.

I guess. Like once I come home and I'm done my stuff and if the kids arent here I'm like bored. I play music and game then stop and think at times then try to learn stuff on YouTube. Even travelling with the kids in the future is gonna be more so that they enjoy it. I don't even care to see the world. It doesn't appeal to me.

I have GTA V and only did the intro then gave up. I should maybe try forcing myself to play it. The books I read usually are interesting. Sometimes I go for walks around the block and do minor exercise.

Like, you just had a kid so you could cut their hair off and use them as highlights in your own hair?

Yeah the kids are fun. Seeing them happy is nice. I'm not sad about life even without them I just find life meh and my interests are meh. If I didn't have kids I'd probably be more isolated.

Could be worse

I live in an apartment by myself in a city where I don't know anyone. On top of that it is a high crime city.

My job is to sit on a govt contract basically without going into too much detail but it requires me to work about 5 hours a week tops.

People think my job is ideal but really it feels like solitary confinement or some shit.

My only advice to give you is to do exercise and try to get fit because that has helped me if you don't already work out. And you don't even have to go to the gym really you can do burpees and shit and maybe get a pull up bar and you can get swole just off that shit.

I mean to me kids seem like a thing you can center your life around. I dont have any or want any but regardless thats more than i got going on.

That said i got a ton of hobbies. Find shit you like to do and make time to do it. And fuck winter.

Yeah. Divorce is finalizing by next month.

For now I work out at home and do stretches. I might join a gym but I'll see. Luckily at work I can socialize which is nice. I'll try to make new friends. Most people are usually busy with their life.

This, just sounds like boredom. TV, video games, and books all involve sitting around basically. Try some hobbies where you go out and physically do something.

I use to play street ball and hockey with friends I had in my early 20s. Now most people I know since I moved are busy with work and family. I might look into a league long as people aren't try hards taking it seriously.
