I used to have occasional hallucinations and paranoid ideas from ages 7-12
I've always wanted to be an I.T technician like my Dad, but I still want to go into the creative route of music. When I was 5, I didn't really want to be anything, except I used to be interested in my Dad's computer. 3yrs prior he got me one. When I was 9, I wanted to teach people computing. At the age of 10, I wanted a smartphone like my Dad's, so I had a wish list of a Nokia smartphone, and a ThinkPad (I had a Compaq E500). At 11, I had no wish. I had one before, but I given up back then. At 12, I still had no wish. I did develop Trichotillomania, and I still have traces of it at the age of 19. At 13, I developed more fevers. And my wish was to be a doctor. At 14, I started to collect computers, and I hated Sigur Ros. At 15 I pulled my finger out of my ass and had to find a college. I waited another year and found out a new course on the campus I go to. 3 years later I'm doing Level 2 stuff, I think I'm on the path to computing. Now, since I was 18, I do music in my free-time and practiced singing since March. I want a guitar, now. I've been through a shittonne of phases. In and out I was in depression and it's been there since I was a little young.
You guys think your Roblox phases were bad? I spent four years and 300 euros on that shit. And all I have to show for it is [URL="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tsQni5K7kvg"]this shit[/URL]
When I was much younger I went through the very common "its a cartoon, I'm a kid" phase. I also had a phase where I would only eat meat that had been heavily coated in garlic powder.
I was a total edgemaster when I was a kid. Only wanted to wear black, hated everyone, looked up stuff about murder and murderers, only listened to "angry music", wanted the world to burn, etc etc. I'm really glad I grew out of that.
Oh, I forgot to mention my tumblr phase...
All I can think of is being a brony and a furry, then I got depressed over nothing for like two years.
WoW phase. It did help me cope with a lot of things going through my life however.
I used to have a god/messianic complex throughout most of my early teens. When physics based games were a novelty I was fucking obsessed with them. Spent most of my early teens exclusively listening to Metallica. From I was 12 to 16 I was extremely homophobic and racist, and for some reason thought it was normal and acceptable behavior. Generally I was batshit fucking insane. Probably still am without noticing it.
Furry, stuck with me, that's really about it. That and the "I'm so cool cuz I smoke weed erryday #420" phase. Neither of them particularly make me cringe, stupidity is a part of growing up.
My friend got me hooked on smoking when I was 13. Every morning when I walked to school I would walk early so I could sit down and have a smoke or 2. Thank god that's behind me now. I did it because I thought I would be so cool and impress everyone but no one really cared and it was just detrimental overall.
I didn't have a furry phase. However... I did have a DeviantArt sprite comic phase, which, let's be honest, is similar. And I depicted myself as a red Tails sprite with a hoodie and jeans. Jeez, I haven't thought about that stuff for a while. And yet, it's not really that embarrassing to think about. Actually, it's kind of nice to think about back then when all I did was make sprite comics, download music off WinMX (hell yeah motherfucker) and watch Homestar Runner.
I was pretty much a loner and didn't fit in *with* the redneck heathens here down south. I had and still have long hair that'll have to go when I join the Navy :( * I got an optimist cause "with" was missing and it made me sound like a homosexual :D
"I am a slave to the Commonwealth." That shit got me a nice psyche evaluation in 8th grade. I went through a long-haired metalhead phase in my second year of highschool. Now i'm just a short-haired metalhead. I went through a phase of "explosions are cool everything should explode" which hasn't really fully ended. Kinda got me some shit at school as well.
Hardcore furfag. I'm not one anymore though. Other than that, I was just a stupid kid. [editline]20th November 2014[/editline] Oh, and I was really into werewolves and even did Vampire-Werewolf twlight-type role play on Runescape. Holy christ it was awful. I also worshipped Glenn Beck. He was like my idol and i even bought some of his books.
Elementary school: went through a phase where me and my friends thought we could skateboard because we played Tony Hawk (I think 1/4 of us actually do now) Middle school: thought it was cool to act ghetto despite being the whitest shit imaginable. Watched lots of WMM tier YTP that was shit even for 2007 standards. Making hacked versions of Pokemon games were considered cool despite me putting no originality in them High school: Nearly went rabid Brony fan cancer-tier (I still like the show, but I at least try to hide the fact I do to people I know).
I was a runescape loving weaboo loser that regularly played yu-gi-oh and only listened to prog metal and blink-182 in high school. [sp]I'm the exact same now, but /mu/sic instead of metal and better dressed[/sp]
I wasn't anything in particular because there's always bullshit associated with a particular look I never could've been more bland, though in my early high school my imagination was rampant with anything mario, which started in mid/late primary [editline]21st November 2014[/editline] I'm still bland (apart from having some experience with weed, rejection and odd 'friendships'), though less imaginative Now I don't know what to do with my life
Let's see. Trench Coat, bad taste in clothing, Furry, Brony, Unhygenic, Dubstep. Probably more.
at 12 and so I was -Loud and Obnoxious -Love spouting memes -a weaboo at 14 I -became an Atheist -didn't enjoy being with people I would call my "friends" -was Judgemental as hell -hated anime -had a terrible superior complex at 16 I started -to get fit -drawing -became an "ironic" weaboo -becoming really good friends with the people I once hated -actually enjoying being with the people I would call my friends at 17 I -set my goals and dreams to work for in the future -started actively trying to fix personality problems -started hanging out with different types of people more All in all it's been a hell of a personal ride. I might not have some crazy strike out memories with my friends but I look forward to the future and living with all I've got
Major depression :[
Never had phases thankfully, I had plenty of friends who did though, I remember the Nu-Metal, Fred Durst phase was particularly bad. In conversations at the pub that lead to reminiscing I never get shit because I'm still the same guy I was back then. Maybe I'm a bit bland.

I went through the "Tim burton" phase and thought everything he did was a masterpiece. A also went through the obsessed minecrafter phase (i still play it from time to time, but i dont make it a part of my personality like i once did.)
I think that looks pretty good, actually.
I went through a huge sonic phase and had a terrible OC. Which is what my name is, instead of Sonic Team it is Jack Team. :suicide: Then there was the brony phase, which was just as bad minus an OC. Then I became normal.
South Park helped me learn a ton of stuff when I was in middle school Like when we were taking a test and i told one of my friends to "Stop masturbating" haha I got sent to the principals.
