As I was reading this, I noticed that your situation is eerily similar to one that I've had for a while. All of the problems you described, all of your reasoning, it was all almost identical. The only difference is the hurting yourself part. I'm not exaggerating. I don't know exactly what keeps me going, but if I had to guess, I'd say that it's one or both of the following; curiosity and a desire to make people happy. As far as curiosity goes, whenever anything happens to me, good or bad, I have this internal drive to find out how the situation will end. Even if I'm in an unbearably horrible situation, I still have a sort of need to find out how it will turn out. As for the other part, I don't really know what made me start thinking this way, but I find enough enjoyment just improving the lives of others, even with something as simple as a good joke. I suppose if somebody wanted to feel smart, they could call this post a "foil" of the two of us.

I see. Well, I guess we hold some similarities then. I too want to see the end of a situation or conflict and I too want to make people happy any way possible. I don't know how long you have had these problems and what caused them, but since 2011, I've been suffering depression and it has caused me to have random outbursts of frustration. That's the least of my problems though. I never get much sleep, and when I do it's not refreshing. I wake up aching and feeling horrible. I've been losing interest in things I love doing. It's all eh. I'm determine to overcome it one way or another.

 

I apologize for the outburst yesterday. Yesterday pushed my sanity over the edge. :(

I understand man. I'm also kinda sorry I didn't really say anything to help out with the problem yesterday, I didn't really know how to respond sadly.

 

Though, I am glad to hear that you're still determined to overcome the depression. Just keep at it man, determination is key.

Don't worry about it.  I know the feeling, and like I said, I'm always happy to help somebody out.

Ventus: I'm sorry you've been going through a lot of rough stuff lately. :/ Your dentistry experience sounds terrible and how you talk about your pills makes it sound like you feel dehumanized. I'm really sorry : ( I almost billion percent garuntee that everyone in your life doesn't hate you. You are a valuable person

Shane: You shouldn't apologize for reaching at for people. Your overarching problem seems like the one I've fought with for a long time, purpose and hope. You have no hope because you believe your life is meaningless and arbitrary, has no purpose that you can cling onto. I think one of the only real choices we have in life, if not the only choice, is whether or not to interpret the world as orderly and meaningful or chaotic and purposeless. If you feel like it's impossible to view the world as orderly and meaningful right now (I have been there for the past three years) it's okay. Just when you have the choice, choice life, order, meaning, over death, meanlessness and destruction. That's really what a purposeless life is.

Believe me, I've been there. I don't know if this applies to your situation, but sometimes it's best to step away from whatever's bothering you for awhile and take a breather. Play a game, or watch something to take your mind off stuff. If you deal with the stress first, sometimes the solution to a given problem will come more easily to you later.

Seconding what Aevin said. When I get too stressed about something, I usually walk away and try to do something that interests me and is productive in some way. I'll pick a topic I'm interested in and devote myself to researching it to take my mind of things. When I come back to it, I feel much less stressed about it than I initially did, and much more ready to tackle the issue.

Ouch, I'm sorry to hear man. I hope things get better for you ;_; I've been in similar situations in the past, and it wasn't great at all. I just tried to take my mind off whatever was bothering me by thinking of other things and I tried to occupy myself with other stuff I could find. That method usually works for me.

 

 

In other news, tomorrow is the day where I can actually do really well for once in my exams so far. And that is my 2 Physics exams. I think I know everything I need to get an A* for these exams... I hope lol

Okay, so I got some actual sleep (A good 9 hours at that).

 

So I guess a proper explaination is warranted.

 

So, I guess as a recap, since I only mentioned this offhand on IRC and Skype a couple months back, so not everyone knows the news. Back in March, my father passed away. To be honest, I didn't really feel much at the time, I hardly cried and whatnot, and I was confused as to why that was. Although, I do know I was very stressed out about the event, which caused me to fail badly in school, meaning I'm probably going to end up failing for the entire school year, even if I try summer school.

 

Yesterday, I get the feeling my father passing away was finally starting to get to me. I was pretty much crying all day. Eventually, this ruined my sleep.

 

That just about sums things up, honestly. I'm been incredibly stressed out lately irl.

I'm... I'm at a loss for words honestly. I'm really sorry to hear you are having to go through this. I can relate to failing a year of school, and not being able to sleep, but man... :(

 

*Hugs*

Nexas, I'm sorry to hear about that. I can't relate to what you are feeling, but I truly hope that everything gets better soon for you.

 

Ventus, I'm also sorry to hear about that. I'm hoping for the best.

Nexas: I guess the same could be said with my dog last month after she was put down.

 

A month later, I was starting to get upset late Sunday night-early Monday morning because I really do miss her.
