this is what i want to get what do you think about this?

the price is cheaper cause i get it on other websites like 2k.

I feel like I'm slowly burning out and I don't know what to do anymore

I'm 16 and I feel like I have been getting hit by one thing after another for months.

Right now I'm on summer break, but I don't feel like I'm actually resting. Last week I worked around 60 hours between my jobs, and today I decided to quit one of them. It wasn't because of one huge event, but because a lot of small things kept adding up: stress, low pay compared to my other job, scheduling problems, and just feeling exhausted.

The weird part is that after quitting, I don't even know if I made the right decision. Part of me thinks it was necessary, but another part of me keeps thinking "why did I do that, maybe I could have handled it."

The hardest part now is telling my parents. They don't really know how much I have been struggling. They think I'm doing fine socially and that I just spend a lot of time gaming, but there is a lot more going on that I don't tell them.

I also work on a game that I am making. It is something I really care about and I keep hoping it can become something, even if it was just making a little bit of money. But lately every bug and every problem feels heavier. I know logically that first games usually don't succeed, but it is hard because it feels like I need it to work to prove that I'm not wasting my time.

Normally late at night when everything is quiet I get some peace, but tonight even that doesn't really work. I just feel exhausted and overwhelmed.

I'm not looking for people to fix everything. I think I just need some outside perspective because keeping everything inside is getting really heavy.

Has anyone else felt like they were carrying too much for too long? How did you deal with it?

The weird thing is that a part of me feels like this situation might build me as a person. I feel like I'm in a very uncomfortable position where I have to face things I usually avoid. I just don't know how to handle it right now.

I'm 16 and the last few months have honestly been pretty rough.

Around 3 months ago I lost a friendship with my best friend. We'd been friends for over 10 years and used to game almost every day. There wasn't some huge fight, it just slowly faded until we stopped talking completely. I still think about it every day and I think it's affected me more than I want to admit.

Since then everything just feels... flat.

I still go to school, I have two jobs, and I'm building a Roblox game that I'm really passionate about. It's one of the only things that makes me feel like I'm actually moving forward with my life. But even when I make progress, it doesn't really make me happy for very long.

My confidence is probably the lowest it's ever been. I keep promising myself I'll study more, stop procrastinating, game less, be more honest with people, and then I don't. Every time that happens, I trust myself a little less.

I also don't really open up to anyone. I can talk to people for hours, but almost nobody knows what's actually going on in my head. I'm scared that if I tell someone in real life it'll just create more stress or they'll tell other people. So I mostly keep everything to myself.

Summer break is starting soon and I'm honestly not looking forward to it. I don't really have anyone to talk to outside of school anymore. At the same time, I don't even feel like making new friends because I still miss my old one. It's a weird feeling because I don't want to be lonely, but I also don't have the energy or motivation to try to change it.

Has anyone else been in a situation where it felt like everything in life just became kind of empty after losing someone important? How did you get yourself out of it? And how do you start trusting yourself again when it feels like you keep letting yourself down?

I'm not suicidal or anything like that. I just feel stuck, and I'm hoping someone who's been through something similar might have some advice.

i’m 16 and i lost my best friend around 3 months ago.

we were friends for over 10 years and used to game almost every day. it wasn’t a fight or anything, it just slowly stopped. less talking, they started playing without me, and then it just became nothing.

i’m not constantly sad or anything. it’s more like everything just feels kind of flat now.

i still go to school, i work 2 jobs, and i’ve been building a roblox game in my free time. so i’m busy and doing stuff, but nothing really feels the same as before.

i keep thinking back to how it used to be and it just feels like that part of life is gone now. not in a dramatic way, just… gone.

i don’t really know if i even want new friends right now. it’s not that i don’t want people, it’s just i miss that specific friendship and it feels like it can’t really be replaced.

has anyone else gone through losing a really close friend like this and still felt kind of “stuck” months later? does it actually get better or just slowly fade out?

i’m 16 and me and my best friend basically stopped talking around 3 months ago.

we were friends for like 10+ years and used to game almost every day. it wasn’t like a big fight or anything, it just slowly faded. less talking, they started playing without me more, and then at some point it was just nothing.

i’m not like crying all day or anything. it’s more just that everything feels kind of empty or boring now.

i still go to school, i work 2 jobs, and i’m also making a roblox game in my free time. so i’m not doing nothing with my life. if anything i’m probably busier than before.

but nothing really hits the same anymore. like i can be working on my game and it’s fine and all, but it doesn’t give me that feeling i used to have when i was just talking and gaming with him for hours.

i think about it a lot still. not even in a super emotional way, just like random moments where i remember how it used to be and it’s just kinda like… yeah that’s gone now.

i don’t even really know if i want “new friends” right now. it’s not that i don’t want anyone, it’s just i miss that person and that version of things. feels like you can’t really replace that after 10 years.

life isn’t like horrible or anything, it just feels kinda flat since then and i’m just trying to figure out if that’s normal or if i’m just stuck in my head too much.

I feel stuck in this weird cycle where I really want to create something and build something I’m proud of, but at the same time I barely trust myself enough to even start anymore.

I get ideas constantly. Sometimes it’s for games, YouTube videos, coding projects, art, or just random things I think could actually become something good. At first I get super motivated and I think “this time I’m actually going to do it.” I plan everything out in my head, watch videos about it, think about the future of it, and for a moment it feels real.

Then after a few days the motivation disappears and I stop. Not because I suddenly hate the idea, but because deep down I already expect myself to quit anyway. And the worst part is that it has happened so many times that I don’t even fully believe myself anymore when I say I’m going to do something.

It feels like I’ve disappointed myself too many times. Every unfinished project just keeps adding to it. Now whenever I try to start something new, there’s this voice in the back of my head saying “you’re probably just going to abandon this too.” So instead of putting real effort into things, I almost hold myself back automatically because failing again would feel worse.

I think part of the problem is also that I spend more time thinking about creating than actually creating. I imagine the end result, the success, the feeling of finally making something good, but when it comes to the boring or difficult parts, I lose all energy instantly.

The annoying thing is that I still care a lot. If I truly didn’t care, this wouldn’t bother me this much. I still want to make something real and prove to myself that I can finish something. I just don’t know how to stop feeling like my own biggest disappointment.

Has anyone else dealt with this before? How do you rebuild trust in yourself after constantly quitting things or letting yourself down?

I am 16 years old and since kindergarden I basically had one best friend who was there all my life. We did alot together, gamed almost everyday and he was a big part of my life for like 10+ years.

But around 2 months ago things slowly changed. We started talking less, gaming less, and I still tried asking if he wanted to play but most of the time I got no answer or just a “no”. Then I would see him online playing with others anyway. After a while I just stopped asking.

Now its basically just silence. We havent really talked in over a month and I dont really understand how something that lasted so long can just kinda fade out like that.

The hard part is he was pretty much my only real close friend outside school. I have people at school but not really anyone I hang out with outside of that. So now I’m just alone alot more and it’s kinda getting harder instead of easier. Especially evenings feel empty becaus gaming together was like the main thing I looked forward to.

There was no fight or anything, it just slowly disappeared and that’s what makes it weird to deal with. Part of me still misses it but another part feels kinda replaced or just left behind without any real explanation.

I know I’m still young but it honestly feels like I lost a big part of my life.

So yeah, how do you get used to being alone after something like this? And how do you move on when there was never really any closure?
