Depression Support Group
Depression is a real and debilitating condition that is often misunderstood by family and friends. Its meaning can range from a prolonged period of sadness to an actual mental illness with specific symptoms. Find and share experiences with others who are going through the same struggles.
Having another thing go to crap, I got to thinking which is not good. It seems like some people have everything go their way and others never seem to have anything go right.
Kind of like why is it that there are those who if they stuck their hand in a pile of crap, they would pull out a diamond, while others would just end up with a handful of crap, and others like me would not only get a handful of crap, but some terminal disease to go along with it.
Seems like every time I have a choice to make I pick the worst one. I bought a used truck and the motor blew twice. I got a motorcycle and when it had some problems I took it to a guy who had been working on bikes for years and had done several of my friends bikes, and two weeks after I took my bike to him he closed shop and I had to call the police and say it was stolen to get it back. It was in pieces and I called my insurance company that I had been paying since I got the bike and they just laughed and said that I should sue the mechanic (who I found out was in jail by that time). A while after my divorce I found a girlfriend and I thought things were looking up, a month after we started going together she relapsed and OD'd and died, in looking around I found out she had been stealing me blind. Eventually I found another girlfriend and after a couple weeks she told me she decided to try the Gay lifestyle and she moved in with a Transsexual friend who had an operation. Another girlfriend stayed with me for about a month and went back to her black boyfriend.
I bought an old house and was trying to fix it up, the city came along and condemned the whole block after I had lived there for 3 years. I got less than I paid for it. Now decided to buy another house and it is one thing after another. I have been trying to close on this house for almost 2 months and there is no sign of it coming soon. Every time I think it will be over soon, something else happens to mess it all up.
I just get so tired of everything going wrong. Thanks for letting me vent.

imo, the energy you give to the universe comes back to you. i do not believe in luck.
doing good deeds always ensures us one in return.
Maybe its kinda like the bad luck comes in threes saying (which is totally true!!), once one or two bad things happen, more seem to pile on. But at the same time if you were feeling really happy and didn't let the bad things get you down, then maybe they wouldn't seem so terrible. Also when we are depressed and negative we tend to attract more negative things and make bad decisions by way of self destructive habits. I have found this to be true in myself and others I love.
So just remember shit happens and tomorrow is a brand new day, it is your choice to make it a happy one.
i believe that our life-style choices (including the types of people we surround ourselves with) have a lot of influence on the negative things that happen to us. not saying it has *everything* to do with it.
but no, i don't think i believe people are "naturally unlucky".
i think shit happens, and it doesn't matter who you are or where you've been. it's all in your perception and how you choose to react.
just my opinion though.
hope things get better for you~
