im only 25 but i already feel like i don't care about anything
I envy u. I'm wound tight. How'd u do it?
zen is more like not-caring about no-thing.
23 and feel exactly the same.
Getting there. I'm rarely anything but content but when I get myself into a negative mindset I can't get rid of it until I'm alone in my room.

i dunno. but i think the more you suffer, and become ok with the idea of suffering, being a loser and wasting your life, then the less you care. maybe read philosophy until you realize nothing matters, but thats a method, and if you're doing a method to get somewhere then you obviously care..

I'm not sure if it's a good thing though, as it's hard to keep this kind of perspective in a society that is constantly talking about ambition and wanting constantly more.
Sitting on benches in crowded cities brings it right back though.

Human beings making themselves out to be so self important, and that these choices that mean so much to them mean nothing to me.
Astrology really is the best and most humbling subject to lean.
You gain humility, that's for sure.

It's great being on r9k though and seeing people putting so much of what they think happiness is into such things like women and sexual desire.
I really want them to achieve it so that they see it really is a big nothing. Then they'll probably go after something else, and something else and keep on going.
Best thing is to want nothing in the first place. Just stand still and go grey.

How to stop wanting stuff?

> society that is constantly talking about ambition and wanting constantly more
when i stopped caring about my interests i felt sad and lost, then i saw others care for things and it was so childish, even the amount they care for themselves and their own lives or success
doing things is so simple and unremarkable in reality
