You know, sometimes you come across something that makes you realize that even though you have SA and might not be able to function as well as other people in every situation, the only person who can totally ruin your life is you... and good things can still happen to you if you let them.
So yeah, as of now my faith has been restored.

I want to close my eyes and sleep forever. Its not like it would matter if I did. I want to fade away, nobody would mind, it wouldn't make any difference. It never will.

I'm feeling quite sad at the moment and it's very hard for me to get to sleep tonight. So I'm also feel quite awake right now too.

About what?

Sorry to dismantle your optimism but I have a few philosophical nits to pick here:
1. People who are living in situations of oppression in various parts of the world, are they the ones "totally ruining their lives"?
Or, how about people who are killed in natural disasters? Are they responsible for their fate?
2. What is it that people are doing to block good things from happening to them"?
3. If a person goes for a very long time with nothing good happening for them should they automatically assume that they must be blocking the good things?
4. Could it be that sometimes it requires external good things to happen to an individual in order for that individual to regain his or her faith in the world and in self? Are there situations where an external factor can be the ONLY thing that can help the individual regain their faith?

^What happened, dottie?
I am tired of being tired.
Too poor to take a holiday.:sad:
Can't stand it when people say "but there are people starving in Africa". Yeah, well I would gladly exchange lives with them because I would not mind putting up with hunger pains and certain death if I could just be able to sit still for several hours during the day. That would be my version of a holiday.
A better option then my life right now.
Can't change a thing in my life right now, because you don't have the means to do anything to change on minimum wages. Have been told to study, I am studying.
h: But the course I am able to do still only gets $2 above the minimum wage rate.
h:When there is a pill that can change the IQ you were born with, then someone will be justified in telling to me do something further to change my life.

I'm feeling numb. It's the only way to describe it.

External factors. Numb Is better than pain though

Thanks, I agree. Hopefully the numbness stays, I don't want to deal with the fall out.

I fell asleep last night listening to this in bed. lol. Good stuff indeed. Right off the bat his premise that pain is the "positive" experience and pleasure is the rare exception is something that I have been thinking about for a while now but I had never heard anyone put it into words before.
