Not this shit again.
Not this shit again
Too early. Wait a decade. It gets easier to anhero after the body starts aching
>It gets easier to anhero after the body starts aching
You're probably right since my friend was like 35
I tried but I just don't think I can build up the muscle memory at this age. Playing even simple chords on a guitar is a massive effort for me, my fingers just really struggle with moving into correct positions, I can't even strum properly with my right hand. I feel like I have some extreme motor issues related to my (diagnosed) autism.
I've never in my life done anything like learning an instrument. All I've done my whole life is play video games and browse the internet on a computer. I have never had any real hobbies or talents. I feel like it's just impossible for me to ever be able to do something as complicated and intricate as learning an instrument.
don't care lole stupid frog
you'll also get nowhere whining
You idiot, that's what it feels like to learn a nrw skill. Did you expect to pick up a guitar and start playing wonderwall on day FUCK DON'T BE A RETARDDDDD
No I didn't expect that, but with how shitty I am whenever I have attempted guitar, I literally feel like it isn't even possible to learn to play at any listenable standard. I feel like it would take years and years of effort to even build up the very basic motor skills required to play.
It's not muscle memory or anything biological. Past a certain age, and if you didn't have a good childhood, depression sets in and mutes every drive. You essentially become a retard unable to motivate yourself and the only pleasure you can experience is passive.
Fuck you
Pick up and instrument and start rn
No such thing idiot. Just learn.
Could you comment on my motor skills issues? As detailed here I really feel like I'm just not physically capable of learning.
Maybe that's it. I was bullied and depressed for 100% of my childhood and teen years.
>tfw people make up stupid excuses to have a reason for doing nothing in their life
How long did you try for?
If you can afford a teacher do that. You probably are playing with poor technique
I'm almost 50 and just took up learning 2 instruments. Age isn't your issue, it's being a faggot.
If you believe you can do it and you push yourself, you can do it
Based boomer coming through with that life wisdom
based dadposter
You probably don't have autism like me though.
you're struggling because it's a new skill. you were dogshit at reading and writing once and you're probably passable at those things now
based boomer. learn from him, OP
He's probably learned to harness his autism.
>you were dogshit at reading and writing once and you're probably passable at those things now
Yes but learning things during childhood is easy, it's much quicker, your brain is very malleable. If I had started learning guitar at 8 or 10 or even 13, I'd probably be okay. But I'm 24 now. My brain is set in its ways. I also have autism.
>I'm almost 50 and here on the chins
>probably don't have autism like you
Son, I was tisming long before your daddy was jisming.
27 here too and no achievements whatsoever. Can't go to sleep because I think about this every day. Also this lockdown situation is making me fat lmao.
The 27 club is tempting but scary.
I thought autism would actually help someone learn something.
in a similar situation, 27, no achievements.
I've never felt so strong, energetic, yet so depressive in my life.
27 is the entry of a human's peak user. fuck everything that keeps you back. Follow the opposite options of a safe choice and go fail. Never too late.
This, I meant to include the notion above. When I was an only child in my room alone for countless hours, it gave me something to invest my tisms into.
I never got particularly "great" at it (guitar was primary focus at that time), but plenty good enough to wind up in a band that played shitloads of shows around all the big clubs in Atlanta during the 90s.
But most importantly it gives me self satisfaction during all this alone time just making and hearing even a single sweet, often simple sequence of sounds done repetitively.
Take your time, OP, enjoy each moment and step along the way and slowly build, don't allow a rush to get to some "impressive" level sabotage you from taking the journey altogether.
>When I was an only child in my room alone for countless hours, it gave me something to invest my tisms into.
That's because you grew up before the internet. If I was your age I might have done the same and ended up having a productive life. If you were my age you might have ended up sinking your autism into WoW and online forums and eventually Yas Forums like I did.
Thanks for the advice user. You are probably right, even though I always end up thinking the opposite, that 27 is the peak and if I didn't get far enough by now it's too late.
>might have done the same and ended up having a productive life
Well let's not get carried away there, son, I've done no such thing myself in any conventional sense. Everything I own fits onto my loaded touring bicycle and I have no home or "job". But I sure am enjoying my new Deering Goodtime banjo and Faedog penny whistle, life is a grand miracle in and of itself.
