One of our biggest problems

I’m too old to re-enter the work force. way too many things changed with technology.
I’m fine with my income. I live in a safe neighborhood, have enough to eat, have a vehicle, and for the time being, enough for petrol as well.
Maybe because I don’t need or want anything…I hate shopping, don’t collect anything that costs money (not much anyway)…I’m happy with what I have.

Same here dude I loved to smoke weed and jam some games because it would trip me out. I’ve been clean for about a year now. Now games are not as fun as they use to be, before I could tweak out and pull off all nighters. Now I only can play 30min to a hour and get bored. I am sad that I can’t tweak out to games like before. Though weed would be a enhancer that would make everything fun. I can’t find a hobby as well because I don’t have interest in anything. The NBA finals are on so I just watch that and get in the mood to play a game of NBA 2k14. Though I did pick up a new bad habit which are blu e cigs haha. Maybe I should try fishing…

I know I need to stay occupied. But I must be the only one here that gets in trouble for projecting, hobbying, getting the stuff out of my head. It’s so frustrating. An it makes me worse if I can’t do a project. I love to make things, and I create wonderful things from what others consider trash. But they say I have a hoarding problem… They did remove a 27 yard dumpster of my stuff in various states of completion last year when I lost my job and was close to losing the house(which we did).
But if I don’t collect things, they still have a strong opposition to me building anything. I love to make rocket stoves and I’ve been playing with designs for some homeless I’ve befriended.

I even get hell for carving my sidewalk chalk sculptures… I’m at a loss. I have a need to create and am stifled…

Do have any pictures of your projects? I’d love to see some of what your describing.
“upcycled” art is finally taking off. I’m happiest making things from found “junk”
