CynicalGuitarist Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 It ruined me. I was doing sooooooooo much better before that tailspin called "puberty". I was a completely different person; I had good skin, did pretty decent in school, didn't care about girls, had a better voice, and all... but once 6th-7th grade hit, I plummeted like a bald eagle on heroin. I feel like an old man now... "those were the good old days"... and to think, I took it all for granted. Ugh... I despise what puberty did to me. Totally ruined my life. I was in a car accident when I was 11... and now I wish it woulda killed me. It would've spared the world sooooo much misery. Link to comment
darkblue Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 Can you take any comfort in the fact that the worst has passed? Link to comment

segor56 Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 Every stage of life has it's ups and downs. I do think that the age you are at now is a bit difficult as you are trying to find your way as an adult. The best advice I can give is just embrace where you are for the youth that you still have. Hang in there- life is full of surprises- keep your head up for them! Link to comment
stranded247 Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 exactly how did you plummet? Did your confidence drastically soar? I know mine did..I totally sympathise but apparently the worst is over and the best is yet to come, well that is what I tell myself. Link to comment
bulletproof Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 "those were the good old days"... and to think, I took it all for granted. Just be aware that there is a strong possibility that you will look back at the age you are now and think that you took it all for granted... Lots of things about my life at age 11 were nice. But that's in the past. So you had a better singing voice then... time to find a new talent, or create a persona that allows you to be a frontman without a great voice. There are multiple solutions to many problems. I think you have a severe case of tunnel vision. Link to comment
lost1607307474 Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 Puberty is that awkward in-between stage of life. I think we all feel/ felt the same when we hit puberty. NOT a fun time! But it's passed, right? And you're what, only 20... we've got our WHOLE lives ahead of us! This is where our life BEGINS... we're no longer innocent, un-knowing, naive, powerless pre-pubescent children but adults equipped with all the knowledge and intelligence we need to power on.

This is very true. We all have memories from almost every period of our lives that we miss and cherish. Don't take your adulthood for granted because I'm sure you'll look back and miss what you're experiencing even now. Plus not having baby-smooth skin or a sing-bird voice is pretty insignificant in the scheme of things. Link to comment

As I have said before your life is far from ruined, baffling is that you insist that it is. Go back to college, get an accounting degree or something vocational with solid demand (not necessarily under supply), and get good grades. The rest will sort itself out as you live life how life intended you to live it. Link to comment

I have too much trouble sitting on my behind all damn day in class trying to focus. Link to comment
