Are you miserable?

This may sound as a rhetorical question, but think about it. Are you constantly feeling emptiness, grief or regret for missed/missing oportunities? Or there are things/times you really enjoy and love having? Cause case with me seems to be the first one. Nothing is be truly enjoyable, no matter what I do, everything's just orbiting this big emptiness in my life. It's very exhausting when I'm doing everything by force so that I could kill time faster. Guess I'm way too lonely and all this holding back of emotions and thoughts is an enormous weight. Which is probably a defence reaction to the fact that everyone who I've ever trusted and considered close betrayed me at some point and showed he's not worth the effort...
What do you need to feel happy? Love, friends, a little bit selfishness and dignity?
Hope you got the message, cause i got kind of confused plus the fact English's not my native :p

Yeah i feel pretty miserable. Love and diginity would make me happy.
I allready am selfish, and i don't want any new friends, sadly there can't be any love without dignity, and im fresh out of that.

Your question is so simple yet so great. Feeling miserable I think is common to most SA sufferers.

Personally, at times I feel more miserable than others. The times where I feel more miserable is when I feel hopeless. Both feelings come together.

Right now, I would answer no to your question. I've been able to somewhat keep a positive state of mind recently, and I have hope of better days to come.

Well then, you guys must have noticed how some people feel overpleased with themselves even though they have pretty questionable life values. It bugs me all the time. It's not that I'm trying to appear some wiseguy, but we're talking about absolute unawareness of really important things like love, friendship, trust, support, understanding etc... And I'm being objective. How do people like that live their days happily and carefree, yet remain so ignorant? And then you turn around and see our band of brothers, standing there, questioning and feeling guilty about pretty much everything. Trying to be better...
Interesting paradox, isn't it?

What kind of normal person contemplates taking their life every week?

You seem so nice and likeable. I wish you didn't feel so bad.

Yes... but I'm slowly accepting everything. One day I will be happy and stop feeling guilty (hopefully).

Glad to see people with positive thinking are not missing around here :) I often get enthusiastic myself, too bad it comes down very easily

Actually, I'm one of the most negative posters here, you can ask other posters if you don't believe me :)

I feel left behind, alone, frustrated and bitter a lot of times. Also occasionally I experience being depressed though it has improved a bit lately. Having began to understand how my mind works, I tend to feel a bit happy when I'm satisfied with what I'm doing and not focusing on what I'm missing. No one is able do to everything they dream of in life {to some degree}. I believe a lot of the reasons why normal people are happy with what they're doing lay there; they know that they can't do everything, yet they're still satisfied with their actions and think positive thoughts^^.

Of course this is a lot easier said than done, I just do this sometimes, and it actually makes me feel better, sadly it's not long-lasting.

Why isnt there a fucking thread on this forum where we can discuss our 'lady' problems. :cry:

Off topic section?Or make your own thread and ask zeroday or thelema to sticky it? :) I think thats the closest your going to get :( You could message the webmaster but hes kinda like farther Christmas.. we see him once a year if were lucky on this site.

On a sidenote,some of my ex girlfriends had bad mood swings and stuff during her er cycle,her problem was manily the pain but still.Maybe its worth looking into taking the pill or having the injection,this worked miricales for one of my ex's.And i didnt get my head chewed off for like a week every month so everyone was happy. :p

Yes I am miserable not because it's a British thing. But because how poo my life is and it hurts when I have seen my friends do more with their life and I in comparrison can't get anywhere. :(

Fortunatly I don't belive in Sucide that the worst thing you can do. Not only is it selfish but in some ways you've let the anxiety win.
I admit I'am finding this Social anxiety issue to be the most difficult thing to combat in my life mostly because my fears has dictated to me how I should live my life. It's horrible because now pre 25 I am aware of what I have missed out on and it really hurts to know that if I was less anxious it could have been different by now.

I don't why but I felt more happier at 17 than I do now. I think it might be because I was younger and Naive back then. So Naive that I thought I would out grow my extreme shyness by age 25 :(

Miserable. You can't imagine how long I've been feeling just that. Is it just me or do you get sick of even the things that tend to make you feel better sometimes? Like we use the same methods over and over and nothing gets better.
Maybe this should be left for the introduction part - but what makes everyone on here so miserable? For me, there are about 40 things on my mind any given minute, most of which cannot be solved peacefully.
