Fatty got me thinking when he said I got to overcome it At this point in my life I still don't think I've fulfilled my life I am so unsatisfied with everything I do I know I shouldn't think negative... but I always do. Each time I try to stay positive I fall back to square one You guys probably don't understand what I'm going through My life has been... unorthodox, strange, different. Yet the way I handle it is calm... too calm. Though I feel like I could explode at any moment. Yes actions speak louder than words but it just doesn't seem to click Nothing does. I just really want to be happy... but there is some sort of barrier. Like a hard shell I can't crack. This may all sound emo, and you may all probably joke at this... I don't know I consider myself a regular guy... but there is so much going on inside. I don't know what kind of posts to expect from you guys, me writing this to a bunch of strangers... I'm sorry. not to you guys. but for myself.
Maybe go out and get a girl?? This is, of course, assuming you're not married. And if you are, a mistress (or two) won't hurt ..i kid.. i kid...

Life is like telemarketing. Invest enough time and energy; take enough pain and rejection, and something good will happen. The hardships you're dealing with now will temper your expectations to something more realistic, recognize your hand in your own fate, and recognize the value of backup plans and emotional compartmentalizing. There will be a lot more unexpected/unexplainable deaths, messy breakups and bad performance reviews along the way; dealing with them individually rather than as the collective product of bad luck will make things a lot easier. No shame in sharing, that's probably the first step towards a solution; you might want to ease up on using alcohol as a coping mechanism, as a clear mind and a balanced outlook will probably be your best weapons.
I understand. And know that people go through this EVERY SINGLE DAY, you aren't alone. I understand second guessing everything you've ever done, I know the sleeplessness and how much you hate the self pity but you can't help it. I know what it feels like to want to cry in public for no reason. I understand the self destructive nature of it both mentally and physically. Trust me Mc, it's gets better but you've got to reach out and get help. Here is a good start. GOOD LUCK and my prayers are with you. cop2comic@aol.com
It's funny you say that. Whenever I am down in the dumps, I think about the time that I was a telemarketer and instantly feel better about my current place in life.
McGrady- This is right on. I think everybody feels this way from time to time. You just have to find something that makes you happy. What do you like to do?
i think im depressed too. i don't know from what. it's like something is unfulfilled. it doesn't bog me down though. it's cause my computer is broke at home. no, that's not it. i don't know. you know that best buy over off richmond? i think i'm going to go drive on 59, and park my ride on the ramp to 59 from the 610 loop. then look down, and jump. naaah.
McGrady- I feel for you man. Things can get so dark, sad, and hopeless. I have felt so lost before. I hate ups and downs-I just wish everything could stay on a nice even flat working table. Another Brother is right on: McGrady- This is right on. I think everybody feels this way from time to time. You just have to find something that makes you happy. What do you like to do? I do know it gets better and easier- just hang in there and do not give up! __________________
I used to have problems with depression in the past. The only way I got out of it was literally to laugh myself out of it. Basically just watch as much comedy programs/stand up/movies as you can. Comedy Central is your friend. The laughter really does help.
Whenever life gets you down, Mrs. Brown, And people are stupid, wicked, or daft, And you feel that you've had quite enouuuuuuuuuuuugh . . . Just remember that you're standing on a planet that's evolving And revolving at nine hundred miles an hour. It's orbiting at ninety miles a second, so it's reckoned, The sun that is the source of all our power. The sun and you and me, and all the stars that we can see Are moving at a million miles a day Through an outer spiral arm at forty thousand miles an hour Of the galaxy we call the Milky Way. Our galaxy itself contains a hundred billion stars, It's a hundred thousand lightyears side to side. It bulges in the middle, sixteen thousand lightyears thick, But out by us it's just three thousand lightyears wide. We're thirty thousand lightyears from galactic central point, We go round every two hundred million years. And our galaxy is only one of millions and billions In this amazing and expanding universe. The universe itself keeps on expanding and expanding In all of the directions it can whiz. As fast as it can go, that's the speed of light, you know; Twelve million miles a minute, and that's the fastest speed there is. So remember when you're feeling very small and insecure, How amazingly unlikely is your birth, And pray that there's intelligent life somewhere out in space Cause there's bugger-all down here on earth!
