What's upsetting you today? - Page 459

It's kind of like: eff 'em. IF they happen to lose all their marbles so what? There is an I in team.

It's so discouraging, the level of apathy that is cultivated here. I already have the extra long days due to this problem, that's fine...but I should be able to take normal breaks.

Pee in a cup and occasionally take your boss a complimntary beverage

You can solve any problem, monster. You seriously should charge for that.

I'd laugh but my laugh track is off because I'm being bombarded with yelling and crying.

7 more hours of that. I'll laugh tomorrow.

Weed-whackers and folding chairs. They'll both bite you if they get the chance.

Suicidal thoughts. I think my depression is breaking through now as everything feels like it's just turning to shit. I had a nice crying jag yesterday. Haven't done that in years.

infinite monkey · 06-16-2011, 12:40 PM

I find sometimes that's the best thing for me. Just cry my damn head off...

Hang in there UT. You are loved, and for good reason.

skysidhe · 06-16-2011, 12:43 PM

I am sorry you are feeling so badly.I know that when people give advice, especially when feeling so blue, it seems insubstantial and pointless but I know, I really know that if you keep focused on the things you can do and see with your minds eye the goal you want, even when life seems to keep tripping you up, you will get there. There is always a way to to get what you need. That will eventually lead to the something bigger and brighter you are looking for, even when things seem a little dark.

When I feel pushed I break things down into the tiniest goal possible. I don't know what that is for you but for me it is keeping a roof over my head. I would take in renters if need be.

anyway,

I am sure you are seeing your doc, so you can get your rx upped as needed. I know you've said this is what you do and it has worked for you in the past, so I see no need to stop treatment now.

All of us here wish you the very best. You have a great mind with many wonderful things to share. You have many talents and those things will generate money if exploited to their fullest potential.

For example, I have a friend who busks and makes a goodly amount of change that way, even though he has a job some days he can put a huge chunk of change in his pocket. So 25 to 65 dollars doesn't save the day but it probably makes a person feel good to know that if you play on the street people will throw money at you

I know this seems like unfocused pep talk but I mean every word.

take care, I mean it!

I'm sorry that you're going thru a down spell, UT. Depressions sucks big time. I deal with it all the time myself. And when I'm at my low point, it seems impossible that life will ever get better or that I will ever be able to do anything to pull myself up. Try to keep in mind that this too shall pass. And like Sky said, maybe you should see your doc about getting your anti-depressant(s) upped or changed.

Hope you feel better very soon - like yesterday!

I have two sick boys at home with me today. I'm waiting for the third one so I have the trifecta.

Clodfobble · 06-16-2011, 07:32 PM

You're not alone, UT. Right now is a bad season for a lot of people I know, myself included. You can make it. One day at a time and fuck everything else, yeah?
