Why does a 19-year-old girl act as if she has nothing left to get from the world and has lost her excitement?

Probably because she feels that she has nothing left to get from the world, and so it doesn't excite her any more.

Seems like common despair

[casueimperfect]

So what could be the source of this despair?

[normalice]

Same as it has always been: newly entering a world of rising expectations met with diminishing opportunities as the ultra rich continue to lock down more of the world for themselves..

I didn't understand what you were saying, could you be clearer?

[normalice]

It is harder for anyone to feel like they've accomplished anything worthwhile when all the worth is vacuumed up by rich people at an accelerating rate.

[casueimperfect]

So, does my subconscious think like this, even if I'm not aware of it?

[normalice]

I suspect at 19 now that you are ending the transition from child to adult you're seeing for the first time how exhausted everyone is compared to how teachers and parents put on a front of having energy, mostly only because they thought children were a delight. But this is generic and could apply to anyone. I don't know enough about you to be more specific.

Let me tell you a little bit about myself. I am an impatient person. I have 3 Turkish leagues and 1 league in the trials at school. I used to be very hard-working and successful, before the 7th grade. I am not a hard worker anymore. My interest in classes leveled off after the 7th grade. What do you think, why? I also have bipolar, anxiety and OCD diagnoses that I'm not sure are correct.

Reminds me of the Dresden Doll lyric "funny how skipping years ahead has held me back."

I'd say you're probably burned out and need a month off to build an appreciation for life. But you probably won't be able to afford that because rich people won't let you eat unless you're constantly working..

[casueimperfect]

Well, I don't understand why I am exhausted. I haven't experienced much in life. I just have a wide imagination and dreamed a lot.

[normalice]

You got older while you were dreaming, as we all do. Dreams don't hit the same when you're older so you're probably searching for something in the real world that makes you feel what your dreams made you feel, and it just doesn't exist - yet. Maybe you'll make the thing, whatever it turns out to be.

[casueimperfect]

Is there a drug in psychiatry that stops the dreaming center of the brain? Because I live in a dream world.

[normalice]

Probably but the best cure for it is education.

[casueimperfect]

Experts don't know what causes maladaptive daydreaming. Possible explanations include past trauma, difficulty managing daily challenges, and having another condition such as ADHD (hyperactivity disorder). There is no specific diagnosis or treatment for maladaptive daydreaming. OCD (Obsessive compulsive disorder) and anxiety treatments such as CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) and ERP (Enterprise resource planning) may be helpful.[1] Archived 19 January 2023 at the Wayback Machine.

Sounds possible. I only know I daydreamed so heavily I hallucinated smells. But higher education was a way to turn all that brain power onto something structured.

If nothing else it passes the time..
