How are you feeling?

[MikeyC]

I'm tired, but I'm actually feeling well. No work tomorrow means I can stay up. I've spent this Friday night alone and listening to a bunch of my music - something I wanted to do!

I also emailed a friend earlier today about some of my problems and she told me she's here if I need her. While I'm likely not to be running to her for advice, it's nice to know she's around. (She's a bit up-and-down, though, so it's hard to really gauge with her.)

Tired, missing past good times, and hoping for brighter days.

 

[planemo]

must.... hide.... face... from self.
-__-
I'm... uh...
I hate winter.
I need a humidifier for my skin's sake.

yeah i know what you mean sometimes i wish mirrors didn't exist.

Ever try using moisturizing cream? but using a humidifier is healthier as it can stop one from coughing and other side effects due to the dry air.

 

[Dead_on_Arrival]

Old and dead inside.

 

[MrJones]

Tired... of everything.

Try, cry, why try?

 

[Agent_Violet]

Tired... of everything.

Try, cry, why try?

*hugs* when i have those days all i want to do is take a nice warm cozy nap...maybe drink some hot tea

Sorry for how you're feeling Jones and I'm not even sure if you're looking for an answer to your question, but in case you are:

We try because we don't want to cry anymore. Life doesn't get any better by lamenting it; it changes through our actions and our wills to change it. You're going to get knocked down, but if you can get back up and try again, you'll find success. I probably don't have the right to say this to you nor do you wish to hear what some child has to say, so I'm sorry for that. Maybe, right now, you just need to take a break and try again later. Good luck to you Jones and I hope your day turns out brighter than it is.

I feel like old rope... wound up, frayed and potentially molding...

I'm good at plaiting, make you like a new length of rope.

If it was just a day...
It's just one of those moments when you can't handle your own life, with the difference that it never felt so heavy. And it seems like everyday is a bit worse. I keep trying, I try my best everyday but never seems to work.

I'm disappointed and frustrated and I feel so weak for feeling like this... things shouldn't be this way, I don't know what's wrong with me, but I hate it, and I hate myself for not being able to stand up like I should.

I just feel devastated all the time, the tiniest thing makes me crumble, cry like a little girl.

I've spent all day trying to hold my tears... I already look like a loser and I don't want to start crying in front of everyone to show how weak I am (not saying that crying makes you weak or a loser at all, it's just that it shouldn't be this way, things could be better but I don't seem to find a way to make it work).

I really have no idea what to do with myself...


And coming here to cry doesn't help, I don't know why I even did it again, it seems like I never learn... but thank you anyway.

Edit:

hear what some child has to say

I don't know what you mean by that, I'm just a year older than you, if I'm not wrong, and don't think I'm anything but a child myself, and I think I'm just proving it again...

Don't hold your tears in; if you feel the need to cry, then cry.

Again, just take a break. Get away from it all and relax one day this week; indulge yourself in your hobbies. If you're trying, then something's changing. You may not be able to see the changes, but they're there; as a quote says, "Significance is cumulative-but not always obvious." Just keep trying and those small changes will come together and form the change that you want.

If you ever need help or just someone to talk to, everyone on here would be more than happy to fulfill that desire. I say this because maybe you do need someone to talk to right now; it sounds like you're lost and you need someone to point you in the right direction. You're a strong young man for putting your emotions on here, your vulnerability, for everyone to see.

Today I am feeling ok, I have to go out later to class which I dont want to. I am not in a people mood today. I just look forward to 10pm when my husband gets me

 

[DeadmanWalking]

Really angry, insecure and upset. I feel like ****ing crying. Why do I have to go to my school?

Then I would say just cry. What do you feel all those emotions about?

You have to go to school because you want to make something of yourself; you just are stuck at a sh***y school. Go to the authorities if they're really making you uncomfortable or tell your parents and get them to do something about it. This can't continue, for the sake of your mental health.

i need a job. there are no jobs. freaking out.

 

[vj288]

Tired... of everything.

Try, cry, why try?

Well it's nice to see you're still able to reference awesome songs even when you are tired





Enabled. It may be my outlook on life, but I'm just an extremely lucky person who always seem to get my way via it falling onto my lap. It's like every Hail Mary pass I throw is a completion. It makes it so I can't be forced to change and face things in life, I have to want to. I have an easy life in many respects, externally at least, but having it easy doesn't make it better.

Like sh*t. I came home from work and my boyfriend had bought me a new bike as a surprise. It's very nice, and he spent several minutes showing me all the features and telling me how much he liked it. Then I decided to be honest and tell him that I wish he had let me pick out my own bike, because, well, that's kind of important. Isn't it? I mean, it doesn't really matter how nice it is or how much he likes it. I very much appreciate the gesture, but at the same time it really frustrates me when he makes decisions for me. Now he is upset with me for not being excited about the bike. How would he feel if I came home with a dog that I had picked out for him, because I knew that he has been wanting a dog?
I don't know. *sigh* This isn't helping me to feel less invisible lately.

 

[DeadmanWalking]

I'm in the worst luckiest position I've ever been in my life. A girl I had thought to be long gone has just reappeared in my life; I had feelings for her, but I had thought that I was over them when she "left". I tried to move on and find someone new, but now that she's back, my feelings are in disarray. When I saw her, she seems so happy to see me and even hugged me (even though that was like the fourth time we met) and offered to walk with me to class. I don't know how to interpret her actions or her feelings towards me. I don't know what to feel; part of me still has feelings for her while another part has broken off and only wishes to be friends. I need help, in the worst way, before I do something I regret.

I hate that. So much is out of our hands already, being able to choose is something I think many social phobics cherish.

 

[Dead_on_Arrival]

Feeling really odd right now. I was stressed out about the internet going out, so I took an herbal remedy I'd bought a while back for anxiety. But I had no idea it was 27% alcohol until after I'd taken it.

*hiccup*

Me some please......

A bit sad right now.....My guitar has just sold on e-bay, and the daughters, plus the amp and twin stand.

^ Does it happen to be Bach's Herbal Remedy by any chance?
