Guys Turning 30 Hit Their Manopause | David Laid 

what mountains are you even talking about. youngish dudes or most dudes dont know shit

🤯

Hasnt accepted his reflection though. That swoopy ass haircut isnt fooling anyone.

Lol,

Education, formal and informal, failed him.

😂😂😂

What kind of mountains are you climbing now? Serious question.

44 here. Can confirm.

@@dasein9980 The top of Mount Cope!

​@Matthew Congreave i can hear the rains down in Africa. 😂

I’m 26 & this what my thought exactly

Not really. If you've watched him for long enough, you'll know that david laid has a very good vocabulary

@@kiritos1286 Yes really, It’s not a requirement to have watched him ‘for long enough’ to know in this clip he just said what the other guy said in a long winded and word salad way, period.

@@THISISLolesh What about his monologue did you not understand? Maybe you gotta rewatch it a few times

@@richardly1543 Nobody said it was hard to understand, maybe you gotta read my comment a few more times.

@@THISISLolesh yeah it was just a bunch of gibberish that meant jack shit. "You come down off this mountain and get like into a state of meditation and remove the inputs." Whats an input? Whats the mountain? What the fuck is he even talking about?

haha reminded me of Why Georgia by John Mayer

Quarter life at 25-30? Someone's an optimist...

@@derpyeh9107hahaha nice one 😂

Midlife actually

Manopause does not exist. It's not science.

Yeah, i have no idea what these guys are talking about, actually who thinks they are at a mountain top at 25? 99% of guys certainly don’r, i mean this dude took juice and had peak interest in his teens so it’s not like it’s relatable to anyone.

Yeah these guys are tripping wtf 😂

They sell this epic on yt, like being a man is the opulence and confidence, and its also many other things

​@@gromswowguide7927 you sound jealous that he's ahead of you in life and made if farther by 25 than you ever have.

That is me bro. With the difference that I try to climb that mountain for 8 years already. Always failing, many falls, no great results on the outside..but I AIN’T GONNA GIVE UP.

Same 😊, 36

Girls experience this too starting around 25

Nature walks are great for the mind and spirit for sure. It’s nice to just be able to shut off the noise, enjoy your surroundings, and be grateful that you’re alive to begin with.

This is just mindfulness right? We all need to practise it

Beautifully said, SpecialJ11! There's more to be learned while alone than in a crowd. More people need to read this. I appreciate you for writing this. Take care :)

If you want to take this to the next level, try spending time in nature, but without thinking. Kind of like open-eye meditation. It brings about a whole new level of serenity. I've found this most enjoyable on a sunny day, just observing the trees swaying in the breeze or watching waves roll onto the beach.

I run everyday too in the forest, to change rhe negative into positives to add a Win in my day, to have endorfines, clean ones, to clear the mind and aim fot tomorrows goals

I'm 25 and nearly a senior software engineer. Depends on the career path I guess

​@@NicksterNOC senior and a young age doesn't go together

"most careers" What are you even talking about? You can graduate as pretty much anything in the world by 25 and start working immediately... What kind of a fuckup starts their career at 35? I'm planning to retire by 45 lol.

Theres no journey at all, everything is a mental fabrication of humans to cope and keep going with life.

I still don't know what I want. My alone time is shoved with youtube shorts and video games and twitter and studying

​@@coolpfpbut9505 switch yt shorts with an actual aim at content u resonate with and feel drawn to that actually might qualify for achieving something productive and u think has an impact, theres alot of rlly good content on yt on everything, or just figure what u r good at and work from there, or develop a highly successful skill or a high income skill but to do that u gotta resonate with it or be dedicated in anyway to pick urself up even in the tought times, damn i need another joint bruh😂

I spent alof of time alone after my last break up. It’s actually changed my life as I’ve had so much time to think through my life , what is important etc

I think introversion would be good for woman all across the world. You girls are just too obsessed with pleasing one another that it's clouding your judgement e.g. most women have no problem supporting giant corporations.

@@thelucariamonarchs4889don’t project. He’s speaking on behalf of himself not all introverts. Don’t oversimplify your experience with a few introverts and act as if you’ve met every walking introvert because you have not.

Facts. I realized nobody is worth my time. Im truly an alpha in every aspect of life. I created a company I sold for $600 million and just spend time alone in my home in NZ. I only bang girls a couple times a week if they are worth my time.

So you needed to ejaculate?

One of the strongest (if not THE strongest) skill for entrepreneurs is networking. If you don't know ANYONE with a similar mindset as you, you have quite a bit of skill to master.

Song makes as much sense as those guys. Which isn't much.

And the days go by 🎶

😊 45

Actually 40 and after.

What's supposed to start at 30? I hit that in 3 years

Nothing magical will happen at 30, we just hope that you’re learning the lesson that your time and energy are extremely valuable. That you’re not perfect but powerful in your own way. That there’s always time to grow and change. That it’s time to do what you want to do with your life, experience things and create something new

I’m 20 and feel like my life is already over.

It is so strange man how we have urgency around certain ages 20, 25, 30, 35 etc they seem like definitive milestones but you nailed it as a guy you have plenty of time if you're 25 easily got 20 years to achieve what you want depending on what that is.

@@mrbritisher9748 !00% however that gets cut short around the late twenties/early thirties because men settle down and have children! Nothing against that but good luck starting a business venture and taking risks when you have a family to provide for.

I think it’s out of expectations. After about 25, you’re considered a “man” so there’s no more excuses for any holes in your personality or achievements

What the heck😂 this is real. I'm 25. I'm juggling things especially physique, doing well financially, socialis improving

@@coviloku7104 Keep it up man

You don't have to be good at hobbies, especially not from the get go. It's a hobby, not a job.

Congrats man, that is great doing what you take more interest in and taking the risk of changing paths. Good shit🎉

Congratulations man! I just turned 30 the other day. It’s definitely exciting and a little nerve wracking as well

@@jacobwalsh9128 Happy late birthday! Hope you had a good one man 👍🏻

@@StevieObieYT hey brother. I'm also turning 30 this year and have been working on transforming my life completely, this includes changing my career path. I'm currently working and saving money to possibly start studying in a completely new field as well. I thought I was the only one, or one of very few to do this. Society puts this pressure on us to have everything sorted out when we turn 30. We are supposed to hold a degree in a field that shows high status, makes us happy and provides good money. At the same time we are supposed to have gotten through enough relationship experience to have found the "right" one, get married, have kids and invest in buying our first house or whatever.. Struggling with heavy depression through my twenties all of this wasn't on the cards for me. It took me a very long time, including years of therapy to finally get to a point where I feel things start going in a more positive direction. We all have our own path and we shouldn't compare ourselves too much to others. Anyway, glad to hear you have decided to take the leap to choosing a new career path. I wish you all the best and may you find happiness! :)

​@@southtyrolbeats9462 i struggle with depression to this day. Its been over 10 years now. Finally went to university a few months ago... im 27. Bed ridden for 10 years due to depression. Sigh.

40 will be here before you know it 😮

Army vet here. Best decision of my life. I recommend making a decision soon. There is an age cutoff where the army will not accept the applicant. I am not sure what it is, but it is around the mid 30s.

Can relate came from a strict family so those values were instilled from a young age I was just a late bloomer unfortunately. I can never truly understand the "young and dumb excuse."

Don't call yourself an introvert, it's a handicap

There's no evidence for any God. Why are you thanking some unprovable thing for changes in your life, instead of yourself for your own hard work.

​@@nKarje Cohort with your fellow atheists and let Christians alone.

@@sunnyd4734 no, I'll comment whatever I want to

I'm 57 and this young generation has turned completely Woody Allen 🤣😂

Well, its different for everyone..

@@user-nf5dm8tl5r As long as you keep that mindset, you're never too young or too old to start.

Unfortunately for them this is not how it works, you cannot unfuck all these women

Oh yeah absolutely, I'd imagine this is equally true for women. In fact women are even more influenced by peer groups and more tuned in to (and potentially influenced by sooner) social changings/currents/norms/fashions, etc, than men are. On the flip side, I believe that in general the need to talk and the need for social interaction is greater in women... But I still think everybody can benefit from stepping back from society and stepping away and out of their social circles for a while so that they can actually come to realise how much influence they were under.

It's a quarter life crisis, has nothing to do with being a man.

I stopped being friends with people at 26 because I knew my intention was to go off on my own to develop my own interests and focus on my self. Instead of having to cater socially to a group. Can’t expect others to come along with you on the journey.

A realisation you come to between 25-30 that you should’ve focused on what you wanted, instead of what others want you to be/do with your life.

Not a damn thing

Every swinging dick with a podcast can talk so much without saying a damn thing. Its impressive, really.

Yeah David's answer was pretty incoherent tbh.

As a 39-year-old, neither of these 2 guys know what they are talking about. At 35, I completely switched careers. At 39 I'm starting a family. They are acting like life is over at 30. Mid life crisis is still in your 40's, and the only people who have mid life crisis are people who made terrible life decisions and screwed around the entire time.

Make sure you got a good job first before starting a family.

How old are you if I may ask? Telling young men to get married today is dangerous in my opinion. I understand that it is an enormous source of purpose, but most modern women are not marriage material.

Regardless if they are marriage material or not, the institution itself is a family meat grinder that’s built to incentivize women to rely on Daddy Government and not the family. It pays women to divorce their husbands, and with the feminist movement idolizing women and putting them on a pedestal, always telling them they could do better, there’s simply no telling if or when she will turn to the dark side. But the fact remains that she will always have the power to ruin your life entirely, at any point, for any reason.

Tell me you are a low value man with a bad picker why don’t ya

@benh715 Best advice here, children will make a man out of you, you either step it up or run like a little boy.

My “manopause” was going to school and not realizing a government job with overtime was all I needed. Seriously, I’d be financially set by now and enjoying life.

I was gonna say….. my friend went through menopause and witnessing hot flashes alone….. find this analogy moronic

Man it sounds like we had very similar paths in life. Sobering when you realise it's coming down and most people are the ignorant cause of their own destruction.

In what way did you try to help society? Because that is a very obscure thing to say, as society has so many different facets which require manpower and support.

@@Aisatsana1971, I've been fascinated by fish since I was a wee one. Growing up, my family watched all the David Attenborough documentaries, and in each presentation of some facet of the natural world, the narrator would make it clear that ecosystems were under threat. Human beings have been affecting the flora and fauna of this planet since the pleistocene at least, but the rate at which natural resources have been used and abused in the past few thousand years has us in the middle of a mass extinction. Ecosystems are collapsing, and as someone who studied this for 4 and a half years in an academic setting, I could see it happening in the field. I specialized in fisheries management after briefly working in forestry. Moved to Alaska because I thought it was the best place for salmon to make a last stand, on the tallest rampart. Worked for a non profit organization that had salmon habitat protection as one of three parts of their mission. It was extremely corrupt, and when I began doing volunteer work advocating for salmon habitat protection, I took death threats until I was forced to quit my job and was effectively run out of town. Next, I went to work for a government agency that managed salmon populations in AK. It was also corrupt as hell, and dysfunctional to boot. Working in my field was hell. It took years off my life, wasted most of my 20's, and paid poverty wages. Instead of getting a degree in a natural resource field, I should have gotten my CDL and went to the N. Slope to drill for oil. The civilized world dosen't appreciate or deserve salmon. The disappearance of beautiful things from the world is a form of justice. That's why I don't give a damn about the dumpster fire we call the world. Got too invested before, and got burned. I'm way happier now.

@@grahambriley2619 that’s incredible interesting and sounds like quite the adventure to learn a hard hitting lesson, thank you for sharing. I am concerned that you seem to insinuate that it is human beings “as a whole” who don’t care about the world. As if the general consensus for humans is that it is okay to destroy nature for profit. I understand that in this particular field, you were exposed to corruption, and people who would hurl insults at you for their disagreements, but do you think this is due to an underline apathy for nature? To me, it seems like short sightedness, ignorance and greed. I find that the average person does care about nature, and wishes for her to be preserved, but we are exploited heavily and have people fuelling the machine through their blinded allegiance to pseudo-intellectual ideas rapidly spread through the media.

It's not feminism cause. The reason is that a lot of men today are childlish. I meet men around 40 yo. All they want to do is hookups, they don't want relationships.

Inflation. Outsourcing. Sky high home prices due to banks buying up prime real estate has a lot more. Look at Japan. They were not nearly as affected by feminism and are inly in the past 10-20yrs getting some of the indoctrination through mass media, yet they have the lowest or near lowest birth rate in the entire world. Interviews with people all say the same thing. Too expensive and no future for the kids.

Feminism is just the mechanism, Soros et al and the Satanists are the cause

I'm a trained medical doctor(well, former) and I don't blame women for not having kids. If I was a woman, I wouldn't want kids either. ANd that's just the pregnancy and childbirth, forgetting the child raising after that. Bruh, it makes COMPLETE sense why birth rates are declining. WE have the medical ability to keep sex but have no babies? If you think that's a problem, that's your selfish gene crying foul, and you know what, my genetics can shove their procreation where the sun doesn't shine.

that's what I thought. as far as I know around the age of 25 + is when the brain gets fully developed. up to that point we are yet part teenagers. when I reached 26 or 27, oh my! I changed so much

It's called maturity.

Just curious, what are you going to do with physics?

tis a bit dramatic don't ya think? you're only 30 and you're a guy, you don't have to worry about your eggs drying up

It’s not over. You sound like I did fresh out of high school and to say such things so early is ridiculous.

Join a club, join a sports league, join a dance class, heck even try going to a pool hall to meet people. Gotta at least try to make some friends or meet people

People are not understanding what you said, but that's okay because you're right. It's not like something magical happens when you turn any specific age, like 30 in your case, which prevents the forming of new relationships, thats not the point. It's the fact that by that age, you have learned what to expect when you meet new people, you know how others are going to view you and treat you based on your looks you've been given and the general category others subconsciously place you into, and you cannot change that, its based on immutable characteristics.

I’m in the same boat as well.

Both good choices. In both cases even the experts dont know what's going on. But better to do the one, one enjoys most

Have no idea who he is….. bet he has a gazillion pictures of himself “doing something”….. that’s such a 2008 CW Teen Drama actor haircut….

Some people are introspective by nature and some aren't, and I haven't really seen that change in anybody I know over time. But it's just that men are very status-driven and it serves as one of, if not THE primary concern for a lot of guys. And by age 30 either they have achieved that and now have more time and mental capacity to think about other stuff, or if they haven't and start to think that perhaps they never will, so they look at other things to pursue.

@@vladutzuli very good points! I guess some measure of success may have been achieved but if there is still a feeling of emptiness they gravitate towards other goals etc

I can say personally that I think neurodivergence and ptsd leads to higher levels of introspection. Usually if people struggle following the status quo and “fitting into” society then they will spend more time understanding themselves, at least that’s what I feel happened to me

@@acrez3260 also very relevant point! I guess if you are outside the 'norm' you could spend more time analysing it & how you fit into or how it applies to you & if in fact it would bring you happiness or reward... Thus carving out a course better...

Agreed! I myself as a women have changed so much by spending time alone. I wish I had done this earlier. Looking at certain friendships, relationships, behaviour and figuring out what I want. It can be quit depressing but proactive too
