I'm sick of life.

[Arik F]

Go ahead. Call me emo. Tell me to kill myself. I don't really give a shit anymore.

I'm tired of it. I'm tired of having a car that doesn't work. I'm tired of having a shitty job. I'm tired of being a doormat. I'm tired of always being alone.

What did I do to deserve to be born?

 

[fuck u!]

Aw, don't cry Unfa. I'll cuddle with you.



My advice: Stop focusing on what's happened and what you don't like. Move your attention to things you want to have happen, things you can do. Don't sit and wallow in your emotions. Make plans and follow through with them.

Nothing... your parents did. Besides your problems are trivial compared to the problems which a lot of people face. Look at them and be happy you're not in their position. More importantly.. smile



^ See how happy your goat friend looks.

I can't follow through with my plans with a car that only starts when it wants to.

I can't afford to take a day off.

 

[Mr. Showcase]

Steps at a time. If you can't get around because of your car... what does it take to fix the car? What would it take to scrounge up enough money to buy a used clunker that runs if only for a couple months?

I've two friends who both bought used cars one for $600, and one for $300. Both have run well enough to get them where they need to go for the last couple months.

Can't afford to take a day off? Are you working overtime? If not, you should be able to make time to take care of what you need to get things moving.

I did take my car in. They couldn't find anything wrong with it.

It doesn't start after it rains. I don't know why. Maybe cause there's water in the engine.

And it's been working great for me since August, until recently.

 

[Jeff N]

I'd go get a car cover. Wrap it up when you're not using it. (thats a change right?)

That should keep water out of it. If you still have issues... you've at least learned that's not the problem.

 

[FairyWind]

do not fret, it could be worse, look at president bush.

 

[(&Nina)]

I know exactly what you mean Unforgiven. I know a lot of people say that when they have no fucking idea, but I've been where you are. I know I'm a
n00b here, but if you need an unbiased ear to chew let me know.

 

[alex_piano1994]

My life is shitty too right now, I have no money (really none), I'm living of scraps of what people give me. But as Killerbean said, focus on the good side of things.
I have good friends and people who care for me... that makes me wake up in the morning.

Hang in there ^^

Do you have a pet? I don't know if you're financially able to support a dog, but it helps me out a lot. Being responsible for another life, and having a companion that loves you to death even when you're cranky, gives me a big emotional boost.

 

[ldytgrs_11]

It's probably getting water in the ignition. May be as simple to fix as replacing the distributor cap.

 

[MiiSS B3CK3Y C33]

by the way i just lost 200 dollars... FUCK! oh well, lesson learned, leave the money in the bank.

Stop being a lazy self-pity baby.

Oh wah, life didn't hand you a silver platter. Get off your ass, unfa. You are an intelligent young man, there is no reason for you to be acting like a spoiled selfish child.

Yes life is hard. It will always be hard. But, I think you have some things in your life that are worth fighting and living for. Find those things and grab onto them with everything you have. For me, its my kids. Its different for everyone, but everyone has a reason to live.

But for the love of god man, stop pitying yourself. When people around me whine like that I'd thump them up alongside thier heads.

Life is pain. Life is hard. Life sucks. But there are so many wonderful things that you will never know because you are too fucking busy moping and feeling sorry for yourself. Get over it.

You think everyone else' life is oh so muxch better and poor you the whole world is against you oh waaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.

I'm so sure. Perhaps it is you that is holding you down. Not the rest of the world.

You aren't emo, Unfa. Just sad, tired, and stressed out. It happens. Especially in our stupid society where overworking and moving fast is considered good. It really isn't.

You obviously need a good rest and escape to reorganize and strategize your plans, thoughts, and general life. Everyone needs to do that from time to time. Our bodies and brains aren't designed to be in overload all the time. Constant stress is a rapidly growing problem. Can't drive because of a shitty car? Walk somewhere. Fresh air and cardio is great for the mind and body. You can do alot of thinking during a good walk. Plus it's free and you don't need a whole day to do it. Take a walk everyday. You can even incorporate other hobbies into a walk. Birdwatching for example. Looking at cool or historic homes is also fun.

I certainly would take DG's advice with a grain of salt. It's grumpy, cynical, and not the correct advice for everyone. DG, you are not the ultimate authority on everyone's life and you don't know how everyone reacts to stress. Simply telling someone to "get over it" rather than offer logical and helpful suggestions is awfully bratty.

People who tell those with legitimate stress issues to "to get over it" need to get over themselves. IMHO. Unfa is not some melodramatic 15-year old who's biggest problem in life is not getting high enough grades to go to a metal concert.

I feel his pain and he needs help before he suffers from a breakdown like so many people do.
