Wish I could live in fantasy

@LostinTranslation90 Well comparing my life to any TV show or movie or book would make me feel pretty depressed. I imagine you have eaten today, have shelter, don’t have to save yourself from wild animals, escape from or battle with humans with deadly weapons. Be grateful for the excitement you don’t have. Can you develop exciting things into your life? Go rock climbing, scuba diving, sky diving, or the most harrowing of all, become a parent! Just kidding - that might enforce your wish to escape into fantasy. To be a great fearless revered human being, be a great friend or partner to someone. Those are just some suggestions, I’m sure you will get many more. Best of luck.

@LostinTranslation90

no ones life compares to some great movie/ book or fantasy life..... people make an impact to those around them and sometimes you do not get to know what you may have done that helped another etc....

you can have adventures and find create and new challenges for yourself.... and find small ways to be a part of something.....

You aren't sounding silly at all, but here is a silly suggestion. You sound like you would be a good writer. Why don't you create your own fantasy and write it down? Then you get to live it in part and you can share it with others. @LostinTranslation90

You definitely describe how I'm feeling exactly. The world seems like a terrible place to be right now. I would just love to escape to my fantasies

Writing down those fantasies might help you feel a little better. @willingPenguin8726

You know what's good about your situation you are having it feels good like playing video games, and alot of our feeling translates to more fun do not confuse these thoughts with terrible ideas. Be greater than you know and all will be well, I will be listening.

If you're silly, then so am I. I've loved fantasy since I was a child, and just because I'm a grown up now doesn't mean that that love has disappeared. I regularly let myself imagine and daydream about being a part of the fantastic and fictional worlds of my favorite films and books, escapism is a terrific gift that not everyone can appreciate or even achieve.

And yes, knowing that it's all make believe can be deeply disheartening. And it's not an easy thing to do, but one way to make your own real life more magical is to find the beauty in the little, ordinary things. I try to envision that my life is a Studio Ghibli movie. No matter how mundane or pedestrian something may appear, looking at it from a different perspective allows you to find a new appreciation for it.

But don't stop looking for adventure where you can! Go on that trip, try that new hobby, talk to that person that you think looks interesting. You may not be able to ride on a broomstick or battle against armies of orcs, tame a dragon or fulfill a prophecy, but you are still on a quest that's all your own.

To paraphrase one of my favorite memes: "I didn't find a magic wardrobe when I was 8, or get a pokemon when I was 10, or get accepted to Hogwarts at 11, but Gandalf didn't recruit Bilbo until he was 50 so there's plenty of time."

i definitely get how youre feeling and living in a fantasy sounds so amazing

@LostinTranslation90 this genuinely sounds so nice, i would love to live in a fantasy world

It must be difficult knowing your are alone sometimes but there should always be someone like us there for when we need them, still.

If I could change the world with a spark, I felt that God was there to intercept my mediums although they do not fight over territory.

I think it's great that I have depression, is anyone with me, in some way I feel chosen and that is okay.

Why is it I must feel alone I cam go out and meet new people and God is there, how confusing.

When you do feel short on time, I am there to let you off the ladder go out and join your families, I will be at the farthest end of the table but you do not need to know my name because God is all around me the only person you need know is Jesus and know of his love amen.
