Did you have a time you did *crazy* things? Was just reading an excerpt on Stephen King and how...

I did but it was not like you would think. When i lost my daughter, the grief counselor told me that my grief would manifest itself in either shopping, drinking or sex. I did 2 of the 3 and was headed for the 3rd when i snapped to. all part of the process and lost 30 lbs in the process.

I think I was similar in some ways. I took the safe option always. Now I'm almost seventy and widowed I'm trying in small ways to make up for my oh so risk averse younger self.

I had my crazy years in my 30s after I lost my parents. It's all came out. I feel chill again. But yeah I was never comfortable doing anything irresponsible and disappointing my family, until I realized it was all control and I was allowed to live my life.

I've participated in my fair share of "spontaneous shenanigans". I think some of it depends on who else is participating. There's always that one friend--when together--means caution is optional.

I still try to not think too much about the myriad consequences, but needless to say, I can't run like I did when I was younger... 😉

I barely partied in my teens but I was in a thousand fights and maybe some mild criminality. Got super into raves and yay and x in my mid 30s, years I don’t remember much of but I’m sure I had a bunch of fun. Almost died only one time 😂 a mostly normal dude now, I’ll crack a few beers on the weekends.

Once in a while take a leap, not really crazy, just something random you wouldnt really over think about.

Easier said than done, but take a step. Pick a random town 100 miles away and visit it, stay over night and explore. Little steps.

My late teens and early 20's were my craziest times. Like most men at the at that age, I was much more reckless and didn't think of the future. I lived in the moment partying and our main focus was doing things that would make for good stories later on. Of course there were some stupid self destructive aspects of this behaviour with the drinking and risky behaviour.

My late 20s was a time when I was crazy....getting drunk regularly, using drugs like cocaine and psychedelics and having a lot of gay sex (including with several guys at the same time).
It was a time that couldn't be sustained, but that was an important part of my life process. I was a mess, but enjoyed it and I miss those days sometimes.

I am sorry to read about the "violent" household. I would not wish that on anyone.
As far as "crazy" for me. Just the stupid things I did in my younger days.
We often say we are lucky to be alive LOL.

Two of my older sisters, who are twins, were the crazy kids in our family. Always up to something and always attracting the eye of authority as a result. I quickly learned from them that The appearancd of outward compliance is the best cover for non-conformity.

Mind you, I loved it when my sisters occasionally involved me in their escapades!

I always live in the moment and don’t like to plan ahead.

I take risks all the time,I like to live like that.

No. I have always tended to weigh the pros and cons of any action, and I have not done many "crazy" things. As a result, my regrets are more for things I did not do, rather than for things I did.

In my 20s…Keith Richard’s called me and said I should slow down …..lol

I have a normal, mundane life, speckled with a lot of crazy things. Some of the crazy is enacted by me and some happens to me. I know from experience it is life and I know more is coming.
