Any of you all know what the word jaded means?
I have been terribly jaded by many happenings in my life especially my wife divorcing me.
God stuff has jaded me pretty well.
Bi-polar has jaded me pretty well.

Jaded means to be influenced by something, or someone if your using it as a verb or adverb. As a noun it is a person of deceit or mistrust.

do you ever fully recover from being jaded? what if it affects you the rest of your life?

You're on the path to enlightenment.

You will get over all the shitty things happening in your life someday, and you will become a stronger person for it ... life goes on, continues, and you may feel jaded now but before you know it things will change, and time will pass, and you will be renewed.

At least that's what my totally naive, lack-of-experience, bullshit pathetic advice tells me to tell you.

Its gonna be okay brother. Hang in there

hey 2deep, don't get the definitions of 'jaded'!?? or why anyone thought it necessary to explain the word. can you try and recover the hope you had at the weekend? we can all tell you it does get better, maybe you can start to believe it. it will get easier once you move out in march. difficul to be still under the one roof.

    i worked two 8 hour shifts this weekend and I’m BEAT. I slept till 1pm today and I went to bed at 11. I’m gonna discuss this with my stock and maybe cut my hours to a solid 20 instead of the 24-28 per week that my boss is giving me. But I feel bad cutting my hours. I need the money but I’m sleeping the days away. Work and sleep consume my life. Any advice my friends?

    We seem to be getting a number of people, new members and people who don't seem to be bipolar either telling people to use "treatments" other than meds, implying meds aren't needed or that you can add further chemical based treatments (like herbal suppliments bought on the net) without discussing it first with a pharmacist, doctor or other proper medical practitioner.Jan and I are extremely...
