(For the older people)

That escalated quickly!
Sorry in advance for responding although I'm not older, this is just a general thought not necessarily applying to you.
People always feel the need to belong somewhere. Sometimes the realization that you don't, can be disappointing. But truth is, noone truly does. We only see small fractures of others and if they're relatable somehow, we have the illusion of belonging. Sometimes it's frustrating when you realize that more things divide us than not, but it's only when you'll accept the other for what he/she is, that you can also become accepted. It's our insecurities/inefficiency that make such connections hard.
I'd say you're on a good path because most people only realize how they must treat family and friends when it's too late, and also at some point you'll need to decide that you just need to be you (whatever this means) and not to care how others are, rather than what impact you want to have in their life and what you want to get from your relationships. but hey, I'm just 30, what do I know! ๐Ÿ˜‹
Having said that, you're not old, sorry, the exclusive old peoples club won't accept your submission! From what you're saying, it seems to me that you've either decided that others don't worth your time or/and you don't worth theirs. If I were you I'd make sure it's not some bad inner voice that creates this frustration.

Last post before I go back into hiding.

because my guest cottage/mad scientist lab is in the middle of a bamboo forest. (I know, sounds crazy, but it's true and I've started to hate the cursed stuff, but I'm trying to embrace it's invasive presence, as long as it stays clear of my grapevines and fruit trees.)

don't worry, we believe you! I remember one or two posts of yours about eating or cooking bamboo, if my memory serves me well. hey, why don't you try (if you haven't done this already) to make handmade things from bamboo? you'll find tons of ideas on pinterest.
as for me, I've been a waste of resources lately, until your late 20's, when you achieve something, you're a prodigy. in your 30's anything you do is just expected. I remember a comedian saying that you could find the cure for cancer in your 30's, and everyone would be like "what took you so long?"
but I'm really happy with my life!
please don't go silent again. I don't know you but you brought good vibes to the forum.

Why are many young people proclaiming their bipolar?

hi! welcome back!
I haven't noticed such a thing, actually, I know a hell of a lot bipolars and not one of them is young.
but let's say its true. I think it's easier to get diagnosed nowadays, less misdiagnosis, not a taboo anymore so young people might be more open to admit it than older people, better treatment/more advanced drugs, so they can definitely live a decent life inside a society and not in a mental health institution, and also its possible people claiming to have something they don't, I think we digged our way to the other side, overdiagnosing, selfdiagnosing etc.

I smoked once for the first time ten days ago and I am being drug tested on Sunday?

assuming that you'll take a urine test, you'll be fine, you could also take some lasix a few hours prior to the test. but in blood tests you'd be screwed. let us know how it went!

its my life

it's just a song nacthoman. you're just overanalyzing. nothing good can come from this. you shouldn't try to give everything humans do a deep meaning because most things don't have any.

I don't think bon jovi's song talks about independency. and playing this song doesn't necessarily mean she's independent. more like she's had enough bullshฮนt and just wants someone to tell her that everything is going to be fine. remember, this song talks about Tommy and Gina (search up living on a prayer, if you haven't already) and it's like continuing their story, a working class couple who never gave up on love and they succeeded. talks about how to keep trying until you get heard.
don't start a relationship with the attitude of a loser, this woman already likes you, you've already won and you just need to not screw up with unnecessary insecurities! best of luck!
