feeling your oats today, heh? you must have gotten laid last nite.

Is your asshole still sore?
 
Replace the weed and booze with exercise.

Walk when you golf. 9 holes walking beats 18 holes riding in a cart. But golf alone isn't enough. I'm not talking power lifting but stuff like yoga for flexibility and body weight exercises - you don't need to go buy a rack of iron and a smith machine.

And @70 Mach 1, above all else, don't take life advice from a self-righteous twat muffins ☝️
 
To 70 Mach: I totally get this. Your original post checks about every box. Life sort of conditions us to be constantly looking forward to some major event (Christmas / Summer Vacation as a kid) or some major achievement (a certain degree or job or promotion as an adult) and it all sort of hangs the majority of life's 'carrots' out on the end of some long goddam stick. Its like we are always waiting for the next phase when everything is supposed to get better.

I have worked for myself for the last 27 years. Some years were so good I had to check the alarm clock to make sure I wasn't dreaming. The last few years after COVID, I have had to struggle to keep my head above water more than in the first 5 or 6 years when I was just starting out. Hell, I thought this time of my life / business would be smooth sailing. Nope!!!

All I can say is that the frustration seems to come and go in waves that are not necessarily tied to what is going on in the moment. Sometimes things seem to be going pretty good at the business - but extra work brings extra stress (!) My only thought is to just ride the waves. Venting with a group like this forum helps too!!!!

@70 Mach 1 Dude, be tough! Uzi 9 is on the money. This phase will pass and you will find something to relight the fire. It may take a few years. I shut off the daily beers and politics talk and that helped. Excercise is key, have your PCP check your vitamin levels also. Feeling better can take months or even years in my case.

I had a rough disease my whole life and I didn't realize it until I was almost crippled and dying. It has taken me literally a few years relighting my faith, praying to meet the right doctors, taking risky meds to feel better and as I did , I became happier and more optistic. All of it culminated in a surgery to save my lower spine and ability to walk and not shit / wet myself, then complications, then tuberculosis, then muscle atrophy in odd places (scary shit but the dick still works!), organ issues, more fusion surgeries, etc.

At the same time, my youngest graduated HS and I wasn't cool anymore and a moron despite taking care of him and always making him a prioirity, supporting his interests, etc. All kids have this phase so be ready for that and empty nest BTW. It starts around age 13 - 14 with your kids. I would have gladly endured all of the above if my son still would be my friend, but be ready for it. It made everything so much harder.

Empty nest will also make you feel like you don't have a purpose. Start working on it now like uzi 9 said. You will need to be strong when they say goodbye and for years after.

I'm practicing again because I want to form another band before I can't do it. Set some goals that will be fun. Ima tear the stage up again some day.

@Shevek good on you for you kind words to 70M1.


Apologies for the poor grammar as I am in a rush at work.
