Lessons I've Learned


Nythera

821 views

Life sucks- I know from experience.

Mine only keeps getting worse..

I'm depressed, I'm paranoid, and I can't seem to find a single damn reason to live.

But 'life is what it is', as Chase says, 'if you don't like it, go die'.

I'm not gonna die, but my life is messed up.

<------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------>

Things have gotten bad for me...

I yelled at my brother for offering me food so much that I got hoarse.

I threw a glass full of chocolate milk at the wall.

I have refused to leave my room for the past thirteen days except for necessary functions.

I burst out crying because my boyfriend said 'I'm sorry' too much.

I am, for some stupid reason, currently deathly afraid of being touched by other humans.

<------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------>

What am I going to do? I think I'm seriously going insane.

What do you readers suggest I do?

Since you don't take me seriously, I don't want your damn help anymore.

Well, first I suggest not asking on the internet to a bunch of strangers. Since you have I'll throw a few suggestions out there for you to take or leave. Get out of your room and go outside. Do not stop to throw more chocolate milk at your brother, do not stop to say you are sorry to your boyfriend, just walk out the front door and take a very long walk. Once you've accomplished this you'll be ready for phase two.

Phase two is repeating the walk everyday for thirty minutes at a time. Natural sunlight stimulates the human brain in ways that I suspect we don't completely understand. However, medical science suggests that natural sunlight produces some sort of chemical gorp that helps drive off depression.

Last, go apologize to your mum for breaking a glass. No need to tell her why you did it unless you are positive she won't have you institutionalized.

Got it?

Now go..

Words cannot describe how incredibly inappropriate this comment is in this scenario. <_<

That walk that Tidy Bowl Man would be a very good first step. Definitely do that. Once you are able to leave your room to do things like walks or interact with people, start building a good support network of friends. I suspect one of the only reasons that I'm not crazy (for that matter, that anyone isn't crazy) is that every time I need someone to talk to, I can find someone. It isn't always the same person, but that's okay, because I find that person to talk to. And (for what it's worth) some of that support network *can* be online; but what you have to realize is that there's only so much a person here can do for you. Hugs can be pretty meaningful actions, and you can only get that from someone you are actually with.

Understand that no emotional state lasts forever and that "this too shall pass".

1. Like Tidy Bowl Man said, sunshine and exercise does wonders.

2. Like Derantol said, getting out and being social, especially when you don't want to, will alleviate your mood.

3. Stop focusing on your own problems. Instead, make a gratitude list, number off all the things you are grateful for. Do it at least twice a day.

4. Stop focusing on your own problems. Do something nice for someone else. It will make you feel better, too.

5. Stop focusing on your own problems. Take your mind off it by getting involved in a creative project like writing, music, art, or other hobby. Consider meditation or prayer.

Take care, I hope you feel better soon.

Accept that you're fat and have bad skin (judging by your highly edited photo). After that everything will be much easier. You'll even see that most people don't have perfect skin or weight.

Or in case that's not a highly edited photo of you or a drawing, take comfort in your photoshop filter abilities and become a devianTART. It will be your very own hugbox and your emotions will improve.

Lastly, you should never ask the internet what to do. Though since you're not serious you get bonus points.

You know what? I agree with this man.

Your parents need to beat you more. Seriously. If you were my kid and you tossed a glass of chocolate milk at the wall, you'd have lost that hand.

Oh, and this ^

You guys are horrible. Thanks for not taking me seriously.

Full of tact, aren't you all?

I really don't appreciate the joking on this- I'm dead serious.

Thanks to all those that gave good advice, and to all those that didn't... Just because you think you're funny doesn't mean you are. Especially not right now. Go be funny elsewhere- I don't need that crap.

Because you're asking for psychiatric advice on an internet spreadsheet game forum. If you can't see a professional and HAVE to use the internet, at least use a forum dedicated to things like this. As I have learned from Weekend Web on SA, there are forums for everything, go find the one for phobias or low self-esteem or whatever.

I have no advice. I just spend most of my time daydreaming. It takes away time from the cruel real world.

And the people who are making fun of this are the ones who just make everything worst. <_<

I would agree with Derantol on this matter.

And the people who are making fun of this are the ones who just make everything worst.

Precisely. Hell, I even though TOLWYN's first response was inappropriate. In-game solutions for out-of-game problems never work. Trust me. Been there, tried that.

Who's laughing? I'm calling your parents right now to give them my advice directly.
