Why don't I enjoy being sober anymore?

Hey Jw my early 20's kinda sucked. It gets better! May I be nosey & ask how come you feel that way today right now? People do care in this shitty world still!
I have my cycles, it's just pressure that messes with me mentality and also I just have random episodes where all the bad stuff that happened in the past I remember them and messes with my mind, I have lack of trust in everyone.
Sometimes I don't feel safe going outside not because of physical confrontation, I can handle that (I don't get into any btw) but it's the fact that I see lots of things people are doing which makes me feel scared that humans would do such things to one or another.

It's because you're used to smoking weed a lot, I don't really like being sober, but I definitely recommend taking at least 1 or 2 sober days a week as it is tolerable, I don't know, I don't consider weed to really take you out of sobriety completely like alcohol.
Yeah like I proper crave, not sure whether it's because I'm hooked or whether it's just easier way of getting away from things.
I feel sad without weed.

So either a bad break up or you are just waking up to adult life.

You know how when you'e growing up and your parents teach you to treat others how you'd like to be treated? When you hit your mid to late 20's life kicks you with snip toed boots right in the asshole a few times and you realize folks are, for the most part self involved slobs. It is a very depressing realization.

The good news is that there ARE good folks around, you just have to keep looking. And keep practicing what your parents taught you, but with boundaries. You learn to grow some armor.

Hang in there. And like Sunni said, it it's something that you feel you can't cope with, please call someone. Do you have any family/friends around you can trust?
I have my mum but everytime I call her she has her own problems too like me she suffers the same thing so all I hear is her upset about things shes suffering from which it doesn't help, and I have 1 friend and he's just the type of person to only want to hang out when he's bored or something or has nothing to do, when he's watching tv I ring him he talks to you like an asshole, all of a sudden his tv program has more priority.
I had lots of friends but I cut them off because I don't like fake snakey people that use you.

I've given a lot of shit to Jamsey boy, but I'm not gonna give him any shit today. Look, we all go through rough times and I don't wanna sound like a damn pep talk, but it really is these times that let you know what kind of man you are. It's easy to stand tall and walk proud when shit is going the right way. We can all celibate a victory like a boss, but how well do you handle defeat/loss? I'll tell you how; you pick yourself up, dust yourself off, tell yourself you're a mother fucking gangsta and you can handles this shit! Then you get right back in the ring and do it all over again. That's life man, I hope you get through whatever it is that's fucking with you.

And now it's time for a little Maynard, he always knows what to say

It's like when you hear that certain song and they become your favorite band. For me it's korn

I was on a bus in 9th grade 94 time Frame. ..There was this skater poser chick that had a little radio ...shoots and ladders was the first song I heard from them...after the bagpipes aND those crunchy ass 7 string Ibanez started to do their thing I fell in love with korn ....and with Jonathan davis nutty ass screaming

I saw tool when a long time ago in Hamilton. A girl I hung around with boyfriend ended up calling and saying he had extra tickeys and for us to drive down and see. Dropped 6 hits of lucy and a .2 molly. One of fhe better concerts I seen.

Simply amazing, after the show we say in a parking lot waiting on a drive back.

I wish I was with my older brother when he was stationed in San Antonio from 95 to 99...dude saw it all when music was at its best, korn, bizkit, Metallica, black sabbath, pantera, slayer, megadeath, all those bands in the 90s .....

He said Pantera is fucking nuts....Phil anselmo don't give a fuck

Said he got so close to Jason newstead when he was rocking his bass he could feel sweat from his hair

He went to the 1st lollapalooza. ..got on stage and stood next to Eddie Vedder before security pushed him off.....apparently Eddie got pissed and started cussing out the security
