Nothing, I apologize for messing up the tempo of this thread.

Oomi, you help people here. You should let them help you once in a bit, you know?

And you don't have to apologize. Sharing with others is the tempo of this thread. Just let it out because you aren't alone in here.

Really? I have no idea what you look like but you seem to have a very self defeating attitude. Do you think that could be a factor in your lack of a dating life? Nobody is going to want to be with someone who wallows in self pity as much as you do.

Lots of people in this thread have given you very good advice on improving your situation and yet you don't seem the slightest bit interested in trying to improve yourself. Frankly, its aggrivating to read anything you post. Do you think others might view you the same way and that it might affect your dating life?

Yeah I know which makes me believe I am better off dead than alive

I wish I was addicted to drugs or something so I don't have to feel and think this way all the time

I'm a loser, not good at anything

So why not start using drugs? You couldn't feel any worse than you do now.

I'm so tired of unrequited love. I wish i knew that someone was interested in. who am i kidding im fat and not good looking.

Don't feel too bad, I'm undoubtedly worse looking than you.

I'm in this non situation now where when I talk to this woman, I feel as if she is answering just to be nice but looking for an escape route. So next time I see her I try to be very brief, to A). not annoy her or be "that guy" or B). see if she tries to talk to me as that could show she's somewhat interested. Note, this is not necessarily about a relationship, I don't talk to anyone and I like talking to her.

Told my therapist about this, he suggested maybe its my low self esteem that makes me so doubtful. I believe this makes sense, and I start thinking about this a lot at home, building myself up, convincing myself that maybe she does care. That maybe I'm actually being an asshole, giving her the silent treatment, maybe she thinks I'm being manipulative, etc.

Then I go and talk to her again; it's awkward, and it always feels like she's trying to split. Note, this could be because this is right before a class we share, but to me, it just seems like she's disinterested, and it shows to some of her responses to what I say.

Rinse-repeat. Don't talk to her as much. Go home, think "but wait!", come back, look like a jackass and potentially create an "i dread being around him" type situation.

I'm angry that I'm 20 but still interact with females pretty much the same as when I was 5. The more I think about it, the more I realize that she's probably aware of this. Not the anger, the ineptitude. She has had sociable, attractive guys talk to her, so she knows the difference between someone who can talk to girls and someone who can't.

I am "that guy". I am the man in a #1reasonwhy story. I am a 20 year old, worrying about if this woman "likes" me and "what does it mean?", even though I know in reality that it means nothing. It never has. And I am angry at myself for getting back into this shit because I thought I was passed that, and I considered myself "progressive" enough to not (potentially) harass women in this way. But this is just the cycle, and now im depressed (lol), and want to avoid that class, because im embarassed and dont want to see her, just like id do when i was 10.


Also while I dont have a problem with all your posts, I could see why someone could see that response to someone else's trouble as being in bad form.

Right. So one of these days, we have to tackle your 'self-critiquing' module. It's faulty. Needs replacing.

Otherwise, you're just going to keep digging into the hole you have put your self into. So deep in fact, that you might not be able climb out of it.

How does it feel to hear your self so vehemently criticise yourself?

My interpretation:
"Depression Gaf, what I found helps me sometimes is when people make vids to multiple people up on the internet

(Just spitballing)"

I am not quite sure!
 

Bagels hon, do what you need to do to get your head straight, we will be fine without you for a little while. I will still talk to you everyday (unless you don't want me to). Go get some sleep, and drink a lot of water okay? Be kind to yourself and come back to us.

Bagels, at first I thought you were joking but now I'm legitimately worried about you. Are you okay? I'm a bit confused. Take it easy brother.

Bagels you have done more than enough for everyone here. You have been our champion. A hero. You can rest now. Take care of yourself. If you need us we will be here. We have built a strong community here and we will take care of each other.

You can get through this, you are stronger than you realize right now. You have fought so hard for so long, you can do this.



You have been more help than you'll ever know. But yes, take some time if you need to, but don't do anything that would make me cry myself to sleep okay?

I can't get through this...not anymore...I'm strong because I try to make myself look like that...I stumbled and tripped, i never fought...I can't do this...

You can get through this. You're strong because you are strong, not an appearance.

You stumbled and tripped, but you haven't given up. You are still here.

Stand up!
 
Wtf happened to Bagels? His posts looks really weird. Is he considering suicide? He as a son and is even considering such a thing?

Been a while since I have been on this thread, and man I'm fine. 3 weeks without depression, mostly easy to deal anxiety, thoughts on the spot most of the time. If I were to complain, I would about my weight and libido, but hey, I can live with that. Blessed be my meds.

No, he is just going through a rough time right now. He is having a hard time keeping his head straight. He is having trouble sleeping? He is taking a break from this thread? I somewhat understood his posts.

Oomi keep fighting. You are strong. You have to be to have survived this long.

Seeing Bags like this... I'm scared man. Please, oh please take care of yourself. Take some time to gather yourself, have some proper rest, clear your mind. You sre strong and smart, and you'll get through this, I know you can. Don't give up, big dude.

You can't even imagine how helpful you've been, all the time. If there's anything you need, just ask. I'll be glad to help however I can.

And Oomi, the same goes to you. Is there something you wish to talk about? Need to vent, or scream/curse at someone? Any way I could help?

Best feeling I have had in years, I switched drgs recently to Venlafaxin, an SSRN, I was on SSRI's before. Since i started them Saturday I fell ill, with what I thought was prostatitis, an infection of the prostate gland I have had before. I had all the symptoms, the chief one being I couldnt pass urine, which as you can imagine after a while gets incredibly painful. The thing you also have to take into account is the only remedy for that is to drink huge amounts of water and take hot baths, if the problem persists for 24 hours you have to go to casualty for a catheter. So I started drinking water in huge amounts, litres of it, on the first day and I managed to go, great stuff, I was given antibiotics at this point so I was hopeful it wouldnt last much longer. Next few days the distance between when I can go gets longer, so im holding more in, drinking more and the pressure gets more and more painful, even with Codeine prescribed, the Codein can cut some of the pain but not the pressure. Skip forward to yesterday/today where its been 23 hours since I urinated, and in that time I have consumed ungodly amounts of water, and nothings happening. Im worried so I check the side effects on the new anti-d and it says one of the rare ones is "unable to pass urine", so im thinking...shit, I dont have prostitis its the new drugs (When i had it before the anti biotics worked within a day, this is 3 days later). I call up the docs and they confirm I should stop anit d;s immediately.

Just pissed, you cannot imagine the release, last literally 3 minutes.

My god it feels good.
 
Take care Bagels, seeing you like that moved me to tears. I sincerely hope you'll be fine soon.

You too Oomi, please reach out to those who're ready to help you in here.

Hi everybody-
I'm trying to put together a bunch of inspirational quotes for a friend of mine. Could you help me out? I'm looking for anything, song lyrics, sayings, personal quotes, famous quotes, etc. She's a teenager struggling through bullying and depression and I know she'd appreciate the support/ words of encouragement..

Feel free to PM me if you want to send some words of encouragement but I'm sure everybody here would appreciate hearing them as well.

"The world is like a ride in an amusement park, and when you choose to go on it you think it's real because that's how powerful our minds are. The ride goes up and down, around and around, it has thrills and chills, and it's very brightly colored, and it's very loud, and it's fun for a while. Many people have been on the ride a long time, and they begin to wonder, "Hey, is this real, or is this just a ride?" And other people have remembered, and they come back to us and say, "Hey, don't worry; don't be afraid, ever, because this is just a ride." - Bill Hicks

Don't do it Bagels you have so much to live for!

That legitimately made me laugh.

Bagels: HMDFIA! sdafdsg lfdd fddfc cherckermonkey iksadfoasfas!
Rastky: Umm, don't do it! You...have so much to live for?


Sorry guys. I'll get desperate enough for sleep that I'll give ambien another try. I was in really, really bad shape, so I took two. I don't remember anything after that. That crap is embarrassing.
 
Ambien is a tricky drug. It's the only sleeping aid that actually works without leaving me a groggy zombie the next day but it can be a wild card especially during depression episodes and in combination with other drugs such as alcohol and caffeine.


Also, here is another inspirational video.

You're in the depression thread. We think the worst first, then everything else follows.
