There are things we dislike to do but still end up doing. A user asked the forum, “What is one thing you dislike but continue to do?” Here are the top responses.
OVERTHINK
“Overthinking. I hate my brain.”
GOING TO WORK
“Waking up, getting dressed, and spending about 8 hours at a place I don’t want to be.”
SCROLL ON MY PHONE
“Scrolling on my phone instead of doing what I want to do is such a waste of time, and the hour I’ve wasted was stuff I probably didn’t care about, like random posts.”
OVEREAT AND NOT RUN
“Overeat, not go on runs.”
PROCRASTINATION
“Procrastination. Sometimes you even feel the guilt/stress while procrastinating, but I don’t do anything about it.”
ALCOHOL
“Drinking alcohol. Every time I have a girl’s night, I regret it for days. I get such bad anxiety, and it hurts my insides. I woke up the next day feeling like a raisin. Dehydrated as hell.”
SOCIAL MEDIA ADDICTION
“Social media. They have done so much damage and are an addiction, but I still open these apps every day as if they were a newspaper.”
DENTIST VISIT
“Routine dentist visits. I don’t dislike it; I’m not too fond of it. But it needs to be done.”
STAYING AT HOME
“Staying at home. I don’t dislike it, but sometimes I want to go out and do it, but at the same time, I don’t want to do it. So I stay at home.”
PEOPLE PLEASING
“People pleasing and always trying to fix others.”
SWITCHING MY SLEEP SCHEDULE
“Switching my sleep schedule twice a week. I work nights, and while I can get everything I need done, sleeping 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., sometimes my friends and family need me for things during those hours, so I find myself swapping days for my weekend. Not a fan.”
MEDICATION
“Taking medication for diabetes.”
BECOMING OVERWEIGHT
“Becoming fat. But everything bad for you tastes so good.”
PICKING AT ACNE ON MY FACE
“Pick at acne on my face. I hate that I do it and tell myself every single time, ‘Leave it alone,’ ‘Okay, after this, don’t do it again ever. Just leave it be.’ Regardless, I keep doing it every time. I can’t break myself from it. If anyone has any tips, I’d gladly take them.”
SMOKING
“Bumming smokes off my friends when drinking. I don’t smoke, not once for weeks and weeks. Then if I go out drinking, I’ll say, no, don’t smoke any, you’ll regret it, you know, you get chest infections or a dirty cough after smoking.
After 5 or 6 drinks, I’ll see my friends going out for one, and I’ll bum 1, and by the end of the night, I’ll probably smoke about 10. It’s gross. I wouldn’t say I like it, but when I’m drunk, I need it. It’s weird!”
