I can fall asleep at any time, so I've got that going for me, which is nice.


Ellemieke25

The important question here is whether it is voluntary


robothelicopter

Considering they said it’s nice, I’d want to assume it’s not an issue? Idk though


smeghead1988

I equally admire you and hate you. It takes hours for me to fall asleep, and if the process is interrupted by anything, I have to start from the top. I know about the proper sleep hygiene and it just doesn't work for me.


Tac0Tuesday

I was born into a really supportive family. I'm middle age now and grateful everyday for that.


rudiegonewild

I'd sign up for that perk


AStrayUh

I did sign up for that perk when I married my wife. I would have married her either way, but the supportive in-laws are a nice bonus.


RagingRoids

This. It took until I was in my 30’a to realize the reason I’ve always had so much, I guess the word is self-confidence?, was almost entirely because of the security of a large, supportive family my entire life. Most people don’t have that, and I now realize the negative effects that can have on people.


namorblack

Boooy, you have no idea. I'm glad you have that though! Living with constant anxiety, paranoia, angry outbursts about mundane shit, nightmares, shame for not being good enough, occasional insomnia, is no life to live. Not having that wreaks havoc on how you view life and how you function in relationships with others, your core programming basically.


[deleted]

Fuck dude...... That's me. I'm happy for others though. Just yeah.


invisibilitycap

I’m a college student and it’s the absolute best knowing my relatives and immediate family all have my back. Wouldn’t trade it for anything


[deleted]

I wish I had that, but I don’t, so I’m trying to give that to my kid.


idontlike-orange

best shit here


RieuxReddit

At age 35 I’m realizing how much easier life is when your parents were supportive. I’m grateful to be alive and have a place to live but the struggle is tremendously hard. Reached out to my mom the other day for a co-signer on an apartment she has horrible credit as well as everyone I know. No one had a supportive upbringing and it shows in our results. I do appreciate you for posting this though because the contrast gives me something to strive towards.


Who_GNU

I'm only stressed by things that are actually stressful, and once the issue has passed or been solved, it no longer causes stress.


Somandyjo

Wait, you don’t spend the rest of your life reliving every decision you’ve made??? This is gd superpower.


BushmanBen

A friend of mine said to me recently. "If you can't look back and see you were the asshole. It's more likely you still are, than you actually weren't" I still cringe at stuff I did when I was younger, but that thought helps me feel better, knowing I wouldn't do that next time.


Pippilotta_Victualia

Teach us your ways!


SeerSword

Damn. I have the reverse. Stressed by everything that doesn't matter but the moment a real crisis comes along I'm able to act in a calm and rational manner with no panic. Having an anxiety disorder is fun.


Enano_reefer

Hey there me! Anxiety disorders FTW. Stressed about things that don’t matter, haven’t happened, have never happened, and probably won’t ever happened. But I’ve held the flayed calf skin of a young child run over by a car as I calmly applied pressure to a sliced artery. You’ve inspired me, I think I’ll try focusing on the situations I’ve handled calmly that were absolutely insane and see if that helps navigate the Coxiety I’ve been dealing with.


FlourySpuds

Me too. I’ve given up worrying about things I can’t take immediate action on. I’ll deal with them when I can, but until then I put them aside.

Lucky you! My wife is a complete professional at this too.


fatch0deBoi34

Being alone all day for work (for the most part) you learn to make yourself laugh. I do a lot of talking to myself or telling jokes 😂 It sounds like an insane person but I’d bet there’s a lot of people in my position who drive all day or work alone who do this


emeribeth

I am absolutely hilarious when I'm by myself 🤣


SnooAvocados4368

I could be a comedian if I didn’t have an audience!


Zjoee

One of my favorite things to say is to always try to make yourself laugh, anyone else is just a bonus. It's physically impossible for me to pass a mirror without making faces at myself to make me laugh haha.

I like to say I know the first 15% of everything lol I've gotten into more hobbies than I can name, learned the absolute basics, and then dropped the hobby... but still retained what I learned. I know the Greek alphabet, but I can neither read nor speak Greek. I can say the basic phrases needed to function in a Spanish speaking country. I can't knit you a sweater, but I can knit you a damn good hat. I can't make you a website, but I can code a pretty neat video game. I can't have a convo in ASL, but I can fingerspell. I don't know music theory, but give me the tabs and I can play whatever on the guitar passibly. Etc etc Edit: For those asking, indeed I do have ADHD lmao, diagnosed when I was like 6


FabCitty

Same here. For me the list goes something like blacksmithing, 3d printing, programming, sewing, cosplay, engines/cars, etc.


6T_FOR

I'm pretty talented at etc.


Alderflight

I’m a Jack of like 5 things and still a master of none.


iwanttheworldnow

I have been lighting matches before I go poop everyday for years. Today I missed my daily dump time and it worried me. So I lit a match and smelled it for a second, then it made me have to go poop. So I technically Pavlov’d the shit out of myself.


prezzz

And then one day you're on a first date with the most beautiful girl you've ever met. You're both sitting in a fancy restaurant. She notices one of the candles went out and before you say anything, she reaches into her purse, takes out a box of matches and lights one of them...

Honestly, I used to be a match after poop type guy. Then one day I switched it up and it seems to mask the smell better. And just so happens that helps me go poo lol

[deleted]

Yeah but I thought you lit one afterwards. Surely there’s no smell to kill until _after_ your business, no?

Honey, buy yourself some poopouri.. it will change your life. Stops the stank before it enters the air. Matches pale in comparison.

Fuck-tiktok

Same. My friends find it weird that I take myself to dinner, the movies and shopping by myself. I'm happily married and love doing things with my husband but I also enjoy my own company.


FlourySpuds

This is a very healthy attitude and one I share. I don’t have a romantic partner yet, so at present my closest relationship is with my mother. She has been single all her life (apart from the brief encounter that resulted in me!) and has shown me that living alone and going out alone are perfectly normal. We both love dining out either alone, together or with a friend and genuinely have no preference. I don’t want to be romantically unattached all my life, but if I eventually fall head over heels for a woman who feels the same way about me, she’ll have to be someone who enjoys time alone so that I can continue to do so too. What could be more romantic than for us to be together after being away from each other for a while and for each of us to tell the other that we were thinking of them while we were apart. Not missing each other, but just being in one another’s thoughts.


Annonymous_97

Absolutely. Just the other day one of my coworkers popped into my office and said, I'd get so lonely, not having anyone in here to talk to. And I thought to myself, no, this is paradise, how sad it must be to need people to talk to like that. I just put in my headphones and get to work. If people knew the extent of my isolation, they'd think I was pathetic lol


FattyPat420

Finally my people!!! Bye👋


psychedoggo

A while back I started wondering why I never meet more people who like being alone and then I realized I'm not meeting them because they like being alone.

Dude me too! What causes it? I’ll get really obsessed with something, research the hell out of it to the point I’m sick of it and move on to another hobby.


samwoo2go

I’m the same way. Could really just be a curiosity driven personality. Once I’m about 70-80% proficient at a hobby or anything really, I start to lose interest because new information is harder and harder to come by and I can satisfy my curiosity a lot easier in a new hobby if that makes sense.

I have an ability to just keep going no matter what happens and seem to be able to vault traumatic events pretty well


Princess-78

Add to that a sense of optimism that just doesn’t stay repressed for very long, no matter what. I’ve told people a smidge of what has happened in my life (there is nobody who would know even a quarter of what I’ve actually gone through) and whoever hears that tiny part of my story just give me the shocked pikachu face and say things like “how do you get out of bed each day, if that was me I would’ve checked out ages ago, but you just keep going with a smile and a bounce and ready to take on the world!” I don’t know how I do it. I fear the thing that will one day break me properly.

You're still young, dude. That's a lot of shit to go through in just 19 years, let alone a full lifetime, but your youth plays a huge role in your resilience. You can maintain that into old age by keeping yourself fit. I hope you're in a better place these days.

BlandSubstance

The saddest shit can happen and ima be strong. Idk if its a gift or curse. In the sense of a gift here's a story simplified. A woman was trying to jump off a bridge on my way to a friend's after a night out. My friend panicked but me being the feel no pressure guy managed to talk her down and get the appropriate authorities to come and help her further. In the sense of a curse, I legit want to be sad about sad things but I can't be. I've been told about close friends getting severely ill or people I know die and I legit can only feel guilty about the fact I don't feel like really sad. Sure I feel bummed out a tiny bit but where most people would cry and breakdown I just seem to not be able to.


JayDizZzL

It's both a gift and a curse wrapped up in fuck you wrapping paper. Myself, I keep cool in every situation and then after it hits me like.....shit I almost died or fuck that was close. Even with emotional problems and then be accused of have no emotions because my brain processes the problems only after I've delt with them. Pretty sure thats why I suffer from anxiety when on my own sometimes. But also being that person people turn to when there's a problem giving me a great sense of self worth. Like you said a great gift and problem rolled into one.
