This isn’t a thread dealing with specifics, or any real reason the sentiment is expressed. I care not to waste time describing what’s going on, so therefore I ask that noone else does. Unless it’s somehow irresistable.
I figure this thread will die/get locked quickly, but being that’s it’s pretty pointless this just seemed like the right place to put it. There are no words that can make anything seem tolerable at this point. Everything is just bad. Even the good stuff has somehow turned to shit.
Everything is fucking bad. Nothing can fix it. This sucks.
Odd. I feel the same way. Spring is here, and the world is *supposed *to be beautiful… but of course, it’s not, because everything in it has turned to utter crap.
Yeah - does YOUR shoulder hurt so bad you can’t sleep, for no other reason than it decided to start hurting, and you’re looking at a year’s recovery time WITH physiotherapy? Hmm? I don’t think everything in my life sucks right now, but my shoulder sure does.
Hey Duffer, I know you get out to Lake Tahoe every once in a while. It’s beautiful here right now. If you make it out anytime soon, I’ll buy you beer - I could use one or two myself.
Don’t listen. Depression is a liar. It colours the world black and convinces you all the light is gone. It’s not true - the sun is still shining. It’s just depression would have you believe otherwise. Get mad at it. Tell it to go to hell. See a physician if you need to.
I’ve read some of your recent posts. I’m sorry that you’re going through a tough time. I hope you can make some sense of it or let it go.
You’re a guy so maybe this doesn’t apply, but Cheryl Richardson advocates extreme self-care in times of stress. That means that if you think you’re babying yourself in a positive way, keep doing it because most people aren’t good at taking care of themselves during stressful times so they feel like it’s feels uncomfortable. Anyway, please take care of you.
duffer, you’re a good guy. I’m sorry your life feels so crappy right now, and I wish I had the proverbial magic wand to fix stuff for you. Haven’t found one yet, I’m afraid, but I just wanted you to know I was thinking about how you were doing lately.
Sometimes you gotta let the world care about you, but you gotta let someone in first.
Hell, you’re not even letting us in!
I’m pulling for you, really I am. Find some good things, no matter how tiny or microscopic, spend the day focused on those tiny, teeny good things.
Give yourself permission, right now, to not deal with it today. A day off. Hell your problems will all be there again tomorrow (I know a thing or two about problems!). Tomorrow is soon enough, the world will not end if you stop for one day worrying about them all.
Good luck to you, we’re right here if you change your mind and want to share a little more!
