First of all, before telling everyone my problems, Id like to say that I have read a lot of stories on here. Some are very sad & terrible. I am sorry about what many of you are going through, especially those who have lost just about everything, (are about to be or are homeless) and are contemplating suicide. Those are some of the saddest kind of stories I have read.
However, some of the posts on this site are ridiculous. I am tired of seeing stories of dumb young teenagers complaining about a girl or a guy at their school that they like not liking them back. Grow the hell up, you dont know what real problems are. That shit isnt even worth reading. Wait until you get older and have real problems. If you like some one, fucking ask them out or shut up about it! If you get rejected move on to some one else. As for everyone with real problems, I wish there was something I could do to help.
Ok here is what is going on with me, it may not be as bad as some other people's issues but it still sucks. I am a nearly 30 year old man, got laid off last year from a job I had for years, I have struggled with work ever since. I barely make anything, and as a result I had to move back in with my mom in a poor shitty ass apartment. I have no room, forced to sleep in the living room where my privacy & personal space is never respected at all. My mom is very mentally abusive, paranoid and is a hoarder. The place is a filthy mess with piles of useless junk she compulsively collects and wont throw away. She constantly talks down to me, treats me as a loser. Bosses me around as if I'm 12, when I am a full grown man (nearly 30). She prefers my sister over me and practically worships her, when my sister is a total bitch that treats everyone like shit. My car recently broke down, forcing me to borrow my mom's ancient piece of shit car whenever I need to get anywhere (half the time she wont let me use it). I used to be very good looking and had no problem getting a girlfriend, now because of all my problems, I got extremely depressed and very overweight, single, no one loves me, not like I can be with anyone at this point anyway because my life is shit. I have no independence. I hate my life. Everything just feels worthless. I'm in debt with student loans, because I got a degree, then the economy tanked and the field I graduated in totally got screwed.
I feel like the people who run this country dont care about anyone in it, all they care about is their own wealth and power. Nothing seems to change for the better. It seems like the world just continues to get worse. I feel like unless we are rich, we are basically all slaves, forced to work our asses off for barely enough to get by. Forced to PAY to live on a planet that we were born on. It just plain sucks and its unfair. | |
I think you need to take a step back and look at what you wrote. Pick yourself up, dust yourself off and try again.
A defeatist attitude does nothing but keep you exactly where you're at. Want to lose weight? walk 5 miles a day, every day. Want to get out of your mom's house? Work two jobs.
The recession has hurt everyone, there is no shame in getting assistance until you get back on your feet.
Time to grow up and realize that your issues are no more or less important than anybody else.
