Hey Roc! We have always been on good terms bro. Please don't do anything that you and we will regret. Please don't do anything selfish. Feel free to reach out to me.
Hey man, we haven't met, but you're a big part of the family here. I hope you make it through this trial. Your friends here all love and support you. Stay safe.
A bag of this stuff is basically my whole weeks budget for food. These types of nuts are expensive even when bargain shopping.
Maybe I shouldn't disclose this but what the hell. His first name is Kevin. Yeah vague but I'm sure someone here can hunt him down and make sure he is ok.
Yo breh, I know you mean that it's done and you're ready to get on with the next bright chapter of your life. Time to party it up and spend some time on vacation... even if only Galveston. @heypartner can you confirm breh is all good?
Divorce is something that most of us will endure. It's a shitty time and I never want to go through it again. I was cheated on and thought my world would never be the same. I was right, it got better and now I'm happier than I've ever been with two beautiful daughters. As low as you feel now, remember that you will feel love again and that is all you need.
Don't do this. I know this pain and what it does to you, but what you do not understand right now is this is a fire that will burn away everything, but from there a much stronger man will re-emerge. I have been on that edge before. I have been there. I have considered the options, but this will only destroy you if you let it. You have the choice to fight back and take charge in a way you would have never thought possible before. I never gave up that hope and you wouldn't believe how quickly it all turned around for me. You are a brother here, no matter what. You have a hundred strong ready to help. You've put your time into helping others, don't think the world doesn't owe you for that. It does. Things will improve. I can promise you they will. Don't do this.
Don't do it man! Went through divorce two years ago and it was all my fault and broke the heart of someone that I never thought I could hurt. Thought my life would never be the same. But I promise you it'll get better. Can anyone confirm he is okay? How does one report this to the cops to check on him?
didn't notice the 2nd post before i replied a minute after. @Roc Paint , holler at me through the board. i know those feelings pretty well. it's a very dangerous place to be. "how dark it is before the dawn." just realize that dawn is there... it's just too dark for you to see right now.
I hope OP is merely being ambiguous and not about to do something that has permanent consequences. Please seek help.
Let's all go to the game on Sunday Roc. Just relax and hold off from making any big decisions before hanging out with people that care about you.
Hey Roc, despite all the pain and troubles that we all experience life is really a beautiful thing. I hope you can take a deep breath and take a step back. My thoughts are with you.
You've got this Roc. The path you've journeyed thus far may not have lead to the happiness you hoped for but that does not mean happiness is unobtainable all together. It's never too late to turn it around. Never too late to right what's wrong. We all get tunnel vision under the duress of life, but there's so much more around you than what's in scope. Rise form the ashes like the Phoenix! If it "helps" any... My cousin tried to take his life via bullet to the brain last year. He spent two months on life support. Was told he'd never speak, walk. Blinking would be the extent of his communication. He even tried to pull his own plug for good measures... But... The doctor's were wrong. Today, he talks. He walks. He works. He laughs. He smiles. He lives. And his only regret is pulling that trigger. He definitely is living with certain difficulties but above all else, he's living --- Happily. I hope you can too, bud. But it all starts with YOU. Not your ex. Not your fam. Not your friends. You.
Man I am praying for you. Just take a breath. Being divorced won't be so bad; you have a long life to live and so much to live for. You have a bright future if you just take some time to do so. There's a light at the end of the tunnel and it's not the end of the world. There's people out there that love you; even a guy like me that's never known anyone personally from this forum. Just please don't do any harm to yourself.
I just want to say, I know how it feels to see these messages from people and know that they are following textbook steps to help you. You are thinking these are just things people are taught or trained to say regardless of the particular nuances of each person's life. It's not true. We care. We just don't know enough to go further than this, otherwise we would. We all need others to show us what we can't see when we're going through hell. Not because we don't believe you when you say things are really really f'ed up. Rather, it's because we don't believe that you can't beat it. That's what I think anyway, in the most genuine non-analytical open hearted way. Take it for what it's worth. Your life is yours and yours only. Your loved ones will be smashed, but they would have to move on with their lives eventually. That's the truth. Don't do this for others. Others won't keep you in the ring forever. You have to keep yourself in the ring. You have to remember why you wanted to be in the ring in the first place. You have to ask yourself why you posted here and why you called 911. In the face of all this mess, something POWERFUL is breaking through and refusing to let you out. You have to explore that thought. Investigate it. Meditate about it. You will find something that will make you uncomfortable at first, but because we all share a common human DNA, you'll discover the thing you find is the very essence of who you are. It's what made you create/build things for no reason and no money as a kid. It's what made you be there for various people throughout your life. It's what makes you you. You'll find it. You'll embrace it. Then you'll find the strength you thought you didn't have. I'm physically thousands of miles away from wherever you are, but I'm with you because you're my human brother. You got this bro.
People like to think of happiness as being in a great state of mind for a long, consistent period of time. That's incorrect. Happiness is small minuscule moments that happen throughout the course of your life, you'll have a ton more of those Roc, I guarantee it. Doing something rash will more than likely negate that. Hell, we can all get through this together as a family, just grab on to our hand.
Only thing I know of you Roc is that you organized a very non-selfish gig to help others in need involving people here on this site. We need more of that around here.
