Sadness. It is real. If you have Dysthymia, it's a constant state of being. . . It never leaves you. I'd really like to see what reality is like, you know, check out how it feels to NOT be sad all the freaking time. . . This is just mean. I mean come on, somebody . . . God, throw me a bone! I'm a cool guy, I do good things. OK, , , enough of this shit, it...
Hi everyone, so I'm having a rough time the past couple of weeks. My temporary job ended and now I'm at home again and just feeling lonely and isolated. Attempting to find people to date has proven fruitless and I'm getting to be at my wits' end. I just have no motivation to do anything. I drank too much last night. I still take my meds but I just feel alone and purposeless. I don't know why I'm here, why I was born, and often wish I hadn't been born as I feel I have nothing to contribute to this earth and am just another person using up its resources. Anyway, any support would be helpful. Take care, all.
These questions are brought up by a depressive brain. It likes to lie to you, telling you that you are worthless, etc., so don't give in to it.
Keeping busy and adding short-term goals can keep you occupied. I mean, really short-term. Even like making a damn sandwich. Then, when you are able to trudge through that, and you have a sandwich, celebrate it. Yes. You did something. It took motivation just to make a stupid sandwich, you know it's true, so pat yourself on the back. This will honestly, if you are consistent, help build you back up. See, you can do stuff. And you probably can do more.
Hang in there. it's not forever.
I do know how you feel by your wording
that, and their shadow-like intensity are emotions I deal with too, so many disappoints with oneself, it would be better not to even contemplate something co m p le t e l y.
Let me cut to the chase, I am better now than I ever was.

You aren't alone in this world completely, just knowing there's a place like this is solid, a foundation of like minded souls, who . . .are flawed, almost always anyway, seems, you know . ..
humorless,
But, not always, if you know how to fight this freaking black stinking satanic quadra- psyco
sonic downtown town .
Put the word "choice" on your list of things to do mentally, like yoga mind-less Taegho!¡. . .. pretend/list, OK? "
Not really,
If you step away from your shadow for a second, dismiss whatever darkness is hovering around long lost spirit, believe that you do have the mindfulness to choose a coarse of action. Truly, A purposeful mindset,
and act on it.
well, listen , I'm tired , a lot.
