Anybody else feel like medical doctors are just glorified Psychologists now. Everyone I've had acts like they listen and care but as soon as I leave they never call about tests or anything. Theh just forget all about me and the notes they took when I explained my issue. They look at blood tests and assume you are all good, even when you told them a list of problems you have. All they think is "you'll live. Seee ya next checkup."

It's like they see us and we look healthy so our concerns must be in our heads and we just need to vent...even though the issues continue.

I knew New Yorkers retire and vacation in Florida but what is up with all of the FL cars I am now seeing in Syracuse? If I ever see an out-of-state tag is 98% Florida tags. ​

I have this feeling often now at age 43, where I internally reminisce about togetherness and bonding and belonging while my mind also processes that I may never feel those things again, in this new age we have entered.

Smells and weather usually spark the thoughts. Just an hour ago I was driving home with windows down because it is finally cool enough to do so. The air felt good, the sounds of insects were peaceful, and then I passed by the smell of meat cooking on a grill at someone's house. This instantly made me think of 10+ years ago when I regularly experienced these things at family gatherings, work functions, or just friends hanging out. Those things made me feel like I belonged and were a stress reliever. I especially love the smell of meat grilling because it calms me.

And as I experienced these things an hour ago it dawned on me that I haven't felt them in years and now only have the memories of that feeling, which pops up on certain days of calm weather and the sounds of nature. It made me remember what life is all about, something we have all seemed to have forgotten.

I literally never feel like I belong anywhere anymore. It feels like the entire Earth shifted into darkness and isolated me, leaving me with only memories of good times. Life in my 40s feels like a dystopian land where I only have memories and hope to keep me going and I often wonder if 10 years ago was the last time that I will feel those feelings of safety, togetherness, and belonging.

Even family is weird now. They've all become such mean people and we used to be tight. I swear social media has manipulated so many people that they created a shift that may not be able to be undone.

Or is this just a mid-life crisis kind of deal?

Just wanted to ask to see if anyone else relates to what I'm saying and if it's an age thing or a humanity thing. I haven't been able to make any conclusions on my own.

But if I do ever feel that release into comfort again, it will surely be a monumental moment, because I haven't felt it in about a decade. That feeling of being around others you trust and you can let down your guard and relax for a few hours. That feeling seems to have disappeared as media manipulates people, causes anger, and makes us all need to seem busy all the time.

I miss the simple life. That's where true living happens. Whatever we have going on now ain't it.

**Incorrect**

Is it just me or does absolutely no one understand what a turn signal is for? Most just don't use them but the ones who do use them use them wrong. Everyone brakes for 10 seconds like they are just slowing down a bit but then they brake hard at their turn and THEN activate the turn signal. It's like no one has common sense anymore.

You turn on the turn signal FIRST, to tell the driver behind you "this will become a FULL stop soon.". Is it really THIS hard to make sense now?
