I think I am going to just quit.
I think I might be a bit depressed.
Seriously thinking about chunking it all and lying on the railroad tracks.

Hooookay . . . you want to fill us in here? What's going on?

Hey, we'll pray for you! Come talk about what's going on, OK?

Crying in my beer is more casual(edit to add actual meaning--meant more PRIVATE..sorry) if you want to talk about this, FGL. My prayers are with you. Please come back in so we know you are ok, friend.

FGL,I am well in touch with what you are probably feeling right now{Pm me brother if you want to talk about this}. What you are considering is a permanent solution to a temporary and very treatable problem. All that will come from you carrying out on a suicide is breaking your mother and fathers heart.I don't know what your faith is brother but you will also offend God by carrying this out. I know you don't know me from Adam..but trust me i've been to those same very dark places you are right now in your head. Pm me if you would like to talk I will keep your confidence. Take care and remember God loves you.

Despair creeps on the best of us from time to time. Get back on in here, where we can "discuss amongst ourselves." Many things can be resolved with the help of others, and it looks like you have a lot of "others" here who wish to help.

Been there, thought about that...at the age of 38.....In 1983 I found out my X had never, ever been the saint I thought she was. My true blue friends hadn't been as true to me as I had been to them. All alone without a friend in the world, lifetime savings gone, half of what I owned went to her and I was left with all the debts....it hurt like HELL.....the darkest hours of my life.
Tired, tired, tired.... always tired....It was hard to do but I got up every morning and forced myself to put one foot in front of the other one. A few months passed and things brightened just a little....a year later and the hurt began to ease....2 years later and things were getting much better.....5 years later I had the world by the tail, doing great in every way .....and she regretted everything.
If your problem is something along these lines....Carrying on with life and being better off for it is the best revenge and healer of the pain.

FGL - where are you buddy? Check in okay?
Trust me, what you're feeling is very normal. I think most of us have been there. It will get better. Maybe not today but it will.
Talk to us.....
-
Hooookay . . . you want to fill us in here? What's going on?
Oh too much time doing too many things online and not enough doing the important things I need to do.
Some offline problems causing me to have little bouts of panic.
I'll probably be fine.
Sorry. I'll probably be spending much much less time at FB and some less at FR and The DUmp.

I'm just a bit off right now. I hope its temporary.

I'll be 38 in Feb. Anyway, this is all internal stuff for the most part. I goofed up.

Sounds like my life right about now. Similar circumstances, too. Dragging my ass out of bed to face the day can be a challenge, to say the least. But I'll get there eventually.

I know what you mean. Right now your Shoe Of Life has dogshit on the bottom. You need to find something secure where you can scrape it off.

Shoe of Life? Now you tell me! I've been wondering what to do about that damn SOL. It's been flapping when I walk for weeks! :-)

You've got shoes? You lucky bastard! Here I've been picking dogshit from between my toes!

Hang in there...keep plugging along...how's that old saying go...time heals all wounds.
Might leave a scar at first but with time it gets smaller and smaller.

I might be trying to change the subject.

I have seen a few that a buddy has sent me, and I keep meaning to check it out, because everyone I have seen have been hysterical.

They also have a music video that has apparently been seen and downloaded by the millions, its hilarious. "Do you want to date my Avatar?" google it. Its very worth it.

Same here, except it happened to me at 41....
Back in 2001, after 22 years of marriage, I found out my ex spent the weekend in a hotel with a male co-worker. She just started this job barely 6 months prior, and decided to leave me and our 2 sons for this looser. In the meantime, I was a textbook manic-depressive, with my moods swinging from euphuric to depression in a matter of seconds, no "in between", just like a light switch, either on or off....
Work was something I did between eating and sleeping, and one day was just like the last one, just as shitty, just as dark....
About 3 months after the ex moved out, I met a woman with 3 sons whose life in the past year paralleled mine, her husband left her after 21 years of marriage....
January 2, 2003, we got married, and it's been the best 6 years of my life! Ex's boyfriend died in a car crash in June, 2003, and from what I heard after he died, she more or less went crazy and slept with anything that was male and could walk upright without dragging it's knuckles. Wife's ex started popping pain pills like Pez candy for a back problem, drinking heavily, and has since lost his job. Both our ex's have married and divorced since then, both are miserable, and both look like they are pushing 60, even though they are barely 50....
Some say that time heals all wounds, which is true.
But I like to say that time wounds all heels, and what goes around, comes around....

That is the one I got sent. Cracked me the heck up, especially since many of my friends were that DnD/Gurps/EQ/UO/WoW crowd. I sent that to all of em. :rotf:

I watched all 2 and half "seasons" of their videos. I can't believe they got Wil Wheaton on there now.
Felicia Day is amazing. I looked her up and she has starred in a movie called "June" and appeared in several TV programs and commercials from Sears, Cheetohs and Diet Coke. Apparently she was and will be on Dollhouse. How could someone who is not technically a star, even B-list, be this talented? Hollywood has so many idiots making millions and someone like Felicia gets bit parts.

Perfect timing, friend. We're coming up on T-giving and Christmas. and I'm hard pressed to think of a better time to just lay off pol boards for a few months. Believe me, it does a body good.
When I was at CU, every year I'd take the whole summer off and just not post at all. It's amazing what 3 months away from this stuff will do to clear your mind. I know some people can do it all the time and it not get to them, but reading the stupidity and immaturity at DU starts to wear on me after a while. Take a break, come back, and suddenly you find yourself laughing at their worthlessness again.
Good luck whatever you decide.

I just looked up some more about her. Professional level violinist, graduated from UT-Austin with a degree or something in Mathematics.
Apparently The Guild came from combining her two of her passions, gaming and acting.

Go easy, bro.

Okay, stop it. I turn 38 in March.

I've been away from being on-line for the past few months. I know how it gets. I've made the decision to stay away from the DUmp section for a while. Those people will suck your soul dry.
Hang in there. We need you.

The DUmp is also addictive. I probably have 90% of my posts in there.

The characters on "The Guild" look well adjusted and successful compared to me. Okay, there I go again being bitter.

I just glanced at my FB and The Guild has JUST NOW posted season 3 episode 10. yay.

You know, I just have to tell you that I feel for you and that I really, really, really have no flipping idea what you're talking about.

Google The Guild. Pretty funny stuff out there.

:lmao:
Its a web series. The videos are about 3-7 minutes long. One 'season' is like an episode of regular television.
Lets just say that these characters are - how would one say it- socially awkward? maybe social retards? (sounds familiar) and they are all addicted to a game like World Of Warcraft. They are pretty much each others only friends, sadly one of them is married with kids. The kids are treated, okay they're a bit neglected.You really would have to start from the beginning. Although the very short "Halloween" short would give you an idea of what they're like.
The music video has been extremely popular. Just google "Do you want to date my avatar".

Felicia Day is a genius. Its a shame she is basically a bit player in Hollywood. Not even D-list. She has more creativity than some of those big stars anyday.

I totally agree with toasted here. I too feel the same way but I have to remember that the fight here is not done with the far left and to quit now and let them win isn't the answer. We all have these moments from time to time. Please don't do anything rash. All of us here wish only the best for you. We have to keep going on no matter how desperate times may seem the end will come to the the problems we have but taking the easy way out isn't the way to do it.
