<human>: Last week after going through post after post on here I ran across a random video where some guy talked about treating life as an experiment.  
  
My life so far has sucked, I won't get into details but I've been depressed and feeling down for a LONG time. After watching the video I decided that I was going to do just that, I stopped caring and pretended life was an experiment. I was afraid at first that I'd stop caring, but since I love science and seeing how things work, I decided to treat life like a big science experiment.  
  
Yesterday I woke up and threw away my to-do list and all my motivational stuff that barely worked for me. After I woke up I just looked around my room like an alien and said "today is an experiment" and I asked myself what sorts of things I want to see. I wanted to lose weight, so I went for a jog OUTSIDE (now this is nothing to most people but I have severe social anxiety and never did this), but it felt different, I just ran and even when I heard some people murmuring something that in 99% of cases I'd have stopped, thought about, and went home, I instead treated them like characters in a video game that had no effect on me. Also, I made a dating profile (I'm over 20 and never been on a date), and decided to message 20 people because I just stopped giving a fuck. So far it's worked, I hope it stays that way.

Give me the gist of the text in a nutshell
<bot>: I treated life like an experiment and things so far have worked out. Do you guys think this might be a bad idea where one could possibly stop caring about goals in general, or is it somewhat of an interesting outlook?
