Yep, same.
Also had a shocking attendance because of social anxiety. Both my parents worked all day and were never home so it was too easy for me. I'd wake at 8, put on my uniform as they were leaving, then take it straight back off and spend the morning smoking my brains out watching Sky News and, later, posting on here.
I have great nostalgic memories of the times I bunked off, oddly enough. I get nostalgic for everything. Though I hated being in school I loved walking around aimlessly on cold, grey mornings when I knew everyone else was doing maths or whatever. I educated myself and formed my own views on the world in those times by myself. I spent a year in dole oblivion after it and I've calmed way down now to this weird state of almost going back to being 15 or 16 again where I didn't care what anyone thought and was more than happy to stay in playing computer games all day.
Don't get me wrong I have a job and a social life and stuff I'm just less inclined to try and live up to this idea of myself in my head anymore. I'm sitting in my pants playing Final Fantasy all day. I haven't had someone in this bed in ****ing weeks. But I feel like I got most of it out of my system and that it was a phase and I was never really that person anyway.
Uni was my just desserts where I came out of my shell, started going out every night and had my window of sex with people way out of my league.
