Down in the dumps.

For a while now I've been down in the dumps and I can't figure out why. I mean, for the last couple of weeks the only reasons I've gone outside are for school and work. Otherwise I just sit at my desk, drunk off my ass, doing homework, or staring at my computer. I haven't even called my dad and I'm sure he's worried but I... I really just don't know whats going on anymore.
 
Same here...I've just been in the doldrums all fucking day. I woke up this morning and I knew that I had to go to work today and I hate my job. I hate it so much that I practically cry everytime I have to get up and go, just because my managers hate me and I can tell that they don't like me. I don't like going to some place where I'm not wanted...to do work that I'm bad at. It's fucking terrible. I just want to stay home at my desk and avoid the world today but I have to suck it up and go in to work.

Worst part is I told my parents I want to hand in my 2-weeks and I kind of bit my mom's head off an hour or two ago. She hounded me over the summer to find another job and I did...and today is the first time I've ever told them that I've always hated the job and I only got it so that she would leave me alone. I dunno...all I can say now is I have 40 minutes until I have to go and work my ass off under people who believe that I am the lowest scum on Earth because I'm a slow learner and don't feel like exerting maximum effort while they treat me like shit.

Sorry to steal your thread. I just need to vent because I feel depressed as all hell right now and if there was some way I could just leave that job and not be stressed to the breaking point I would.
 
I think most people go into patches like that, I guess all you can do is wait for it to pass by. I'm not really much help I know but I do hope you get better soon!
 
I actually went through a phase similar to that (minus the drinking) when I was going out with my last girlfriend. Now, there's one hell of a complicated backstory to it, but I'll spare you that. Basically, I worked it out (somewhat), but I never got over it completely until I broke up with her.

I guess what I'm saying is that there must be some cause for the way you feel. Find out what it is, and destroy it.
 
A good laugh always helps me when I'm in a sour mood.

Mary had a little skirt
with splits right up the sides
and everywhere that Mary went
the boys could see her thighs.
Mary had another skirt
'twas split right up the front
...But she didn't wear that one often

Old Mother Hubbard went to the cupboard to fetch her poor dog a bone.
When she bent over Rover took over and gave her a bone of his own

(I can't take credit for these but that doesn't mean they aren't funny)
 
That's my problem, I have no idea what it is. I mean, I should feel great what with my new job, nice things, and lack of bitching. Then again, lately I often catch myself staring at my tea while the warmth from the cup burns my hands. Maybe I miss the pain? :sad:
 
Sounds like you're the kind of person I used to be. It seems like you like challenges/complications. Always having something to overcome. Now that you don't have any challenges to face currently, you're bored with life. It takes time, but you can learn to find happiness in the things that you have. And just as personal experience goes, excessive drinking helps nothing, it can only make matters worse.
