Feel so ugly~ ::(:
I'm sorry.
I just feel bad, I'm not sure. I was going to take a shower and then breakfast and then leave... but I just couldn't. I can't explain.

Then my mother woke up and talked to me about a person she saw on the news and what happened to her, and how she has it so much worse than me and how so many people have it so much worse than me and yet they smile and they are happy and how I have everything I could want, a big house, stability in life and a caring family, yet I feel how I feel. That certainly did not make me feel any better.
I'm sorry you're feeling bad. I agree with Mikey, we all have our own problems, it doesn't help to know that our issues are better or worse than anyone else's.

Just read my father's obituary in my local newspaper... and I can't help crying because I got the overall impression that he cared more about my step-siblings than he did me, the obituary pretty much confirmed this feeling. But then he didn't much of an effort with me, anyway. ::(:

I just found out that my SSI application was finally APPROVED, after three tries and almost two years. So I'm feeling really good. I never even needed a lawyer like EVERYONE said I would!! :D

Not too bad. Put in my 2 week resignation today at work, because I got my formal job offer from the Sheriff's Department yesterday. It will be 6 months before I'll be eligible for TCLEOSE sponsorship with them, but that's no problem at all. One step closer to being a peace officer. :D

That was definitely a grueling application process, it took almost a full month of interviews and testing.

^ Oh wow, bcsr that's awful. ::(: Do you eat strawberries raw a lot? Maybe you had a reaction to whatever they put on the strawberries (pesticides, etc.), if they're not organic? Have you had a reaction to fruits like that before?

Sorry you had to go through that, but I know the feeling. I get an anaphylactic reaction if I consume bananas or banana flavored anything. My chest and the back of my throat tightens, I can hardly breathe, then I start panicking and I get light headed and start to shake, ugh it's awful and scary. My doctor told me it's only a matter of time before I get the same reaction to latex because apparently they're connected (I don't know how?). Wonderful. :rolleyes:

Yea, I eat strawberries all the time. I love them dearly. Oddly enough, the last time that happened, it was also after eating strawberries. So I think I just have to give them up, as painful as it will be.

I'm glad. Good luck.

Ugly, empty. Feeling pretty low, struggling with a moderate depression. I feel like I have no-one to confide in about my problems, other than on here. Besides that, I decided to reschedule my meeting with Capability Scotland for the beginning of June. Meh! That's about it for now, really.

I know the feeling of having no one to confide in. Stay strong.

very little hope is left, a little light is still there at the end, i cant see it, but i feel its there. will i ever arrive to that light? maybe yes, maybe not, big probability that I'm NOT.
today is one of these days, were i just want to eliminate everything what is related with my human being, my past,the present, and the future
just saving money for 1 one way ticket to the other part of the world, and never looking back.
what is the sense on living, of being a human being, find happiness? make this world a little better? maybe its just being egoistic and trying to make as much money as possible and be a materialist, maybe its just sitting on the park bench for years, and have that feeling of inner light,peace,freedom, yes i want to achieve that last thing, but at the same time i know i will never do.
maybe ill get a good job someday,maybe ill love someone for a few years, i don't know, but happy? i think i cannot answer that question

You even named her and everything. That's rough.

Ouch, that's not good. Sorry, man.

Excellent news. You have a stronger skin than I do because I couldn't do that at all. I hope it all comes to fruition.

Neck/head ache as usual.
Rest up, my friend.
 
I don't feel good. I don't feel right. I always feel like there is something else wrong with my brain but everyone just says that it's part of my anxiety. I think there is more to it. I really just want someone to tell me that I'm not right, that I'm defective in some way so that I know all the feelings and thoughts I have aren't "normal."

I'm sorry, what do you think is wrong?

I don't know. Therapy and medication have helped, but I'm just... lost, I guess. Maybe I just want all of my symptoms to go away and that is never going to happen. But I have conversations with people in my head over and over again and my mind is either racing 100 mph or telling me what a failure I am. I don't know how to explain it all (and I'm not sure that I want to), but I recognize things in me that I'm not sure aren't a symptom of something else. My mother thought I might have been autistic when I was younger. Obviously I'm not, but what if there is something else that I'm ignoring? OCD? Bi-polar disorder? Mental illness gallops like crazy on both sides of my family. I just want a definitive answer to what is wrong with me. I'm tired of always feeling like I'm a freak and spending so much energy trying to hide it.

Alas, I am heading to see my therapist right now. Let's see if I can get these feelings out there and expressed properly.
