Also I've had depression for a really long time so I can't uh remember being totally happy and ok. Ignorance is bliss. I know though that all I really have to do though is move out and then I'll be happy. I know it's very 14 year old of me to say this, but my parents really are basically the source of my problems.
To keep myself from dwelling about how terrible my life is, I listen to a lot of music. When I'm starting to feel terrible I just turn on my stereo and rock out. Singing a long to my favorite songs feels better like woah. Playing computer games helps, and I got friends that I can talk to when I need to. They're all online these days but it's better than nothing and I've had nothing before.
I also go out of my way to enjoy the little things. All of my showers are hot and relaxing ones, I like to try to take in my surroundings and appreciate what's there. I like the rain so that's really helpful as it's dark and dreary for half the year here.
God no I don't want your other services don't install them without my knowledge UGH.
I'll hop on right now then
get better friends

It seems to do pretty well.
I tend to forget about everything that is bad about life and get absorbed in whatever I am doing.
You can't tell a person with anxiety or depression to just knock it off
Everybody has their own ways of coping with that stuff
Hate washing dishes this does not help me get through the day at all.
You could interpret it that way.
Or you could interpret it as telling the person to take a proactive interest in fixing their problems.
get this
and then use that instead (get an aim account though)
This could be anything from finding therapy, mental tricks (such as mantra repetition), medication, or filling a void in your life. Some people can get their shit fixed simply by exercising regularly.
Some people just complain about their meager problems and have an entitlement complex about how the world should be fixing itself and they wish their problems would go away.
what if i just want you to make my problems go away
what if i blame you for everything
why must you persecute me with your inattention you cruel beaver
Because persecute is one letter away from prosecute.
Also booze and the gym, sometimes in that order.
Also I don't think I have much of a backbone. I don't know if that's because I'm depressed or if that's just who I am.
It's gotten a lot of bad flak, but it's solid advice in the right context.
"I have problems!" Man up, pussy.
"This is how I treat my problems" Good show, bro.
so anyone who actually needs advice on how to deal with their problems is a pussy
noted
Did you see the context? Not the hyperbole? There's a difference between complaining into the abyss and seeking treatment.
And only several letters away from prostitute!
and they just think you're being a mope, or something
and it's very hard to explain to these people that just saying "stop it" is not very useful in any context
unless you're bob newhart
What if I'm really poor and can't afford the mans treatments.

Basically over the past year and a half or so I've lived nearly every day with the fear of sudden, painful death because of various symptoms I experience. Wont go into details but they are bad and interfere with my daily life.
The doctors have done test after test trying to determine WTF is wrong with me, and because thier tests come up with nothing, they are at this point blaming my brain for tricking my body into thinking its suffering from some debilitating condition.
While the condition is debilitating, they now think that it is also imaginary.
This obviously distresses me quite a bit, as if an unreal disease can be as annoying as a real one, and the imaginary one is untreatable, how the fuck am I supposed to get better or distinguish it from an actual condition?
So far they havent found an answer to this question, so I get through the day by ignoring the various pains and frightening experiences as best I can, shouting things such as "Just fucking kill me if you want to kill me, Body, goddam it." when it gets really bad.
So yea. At this point I deal with it by Daring my body to kill me. Not really healthy, but healthier I think than stressing about it 24h a day, which I did at first.
it's two letters away
so stop being a weakling and grin a bunch, queer
My problems:
1. I actually didn't work that hard in college. I'm kind of a lazy ass.
2. I am now also fat, despite copious exercise, because I eat.
3. All the stupid things I've ever said. Why was anyone ever friends with me? Were they just pretending?
4. My mom got frail all of a sudden and has lots of low-level health problems.
5. I'm cursed with a smutty mind and no competent way to deal with it. I'm scared nobody will ever love me.
The solution, I suppose, is "man up," but I have to listen to some Phil Ochs first.

because I wake up in the morning feeling like P. Diddy
second is cooking
when i fail at creating things artistically I usually end up trying something ive never done before in the kitchen
after that
it's drugs alcohol and meaningless sex with moderately attractive women
if it makes you feel better you said something cool the other day in a thread and i cannot for the life of me remember
but you're still cool in my book, cel.
