Help from the Forum

[andrew.wright16]

Hey Guys,

This is going to seem absolutely pathetic, and Im sure there are a million other websites to post this kind of stuff on, but if you want to criticize me when feel free, i respect people's views on the forum and hopefully you'll respect mine when considering a reply.

I'm also probably not the first person on the forum to bring this up but hey, its all new to me so bear that in mind.

I have started seriously thinking why life is worth living. Sure if you find the right person to share it with then im sure its great.
However I find that nearly everyone I talk to is categorised in some way. The only reason that I cannot categorise myself is that I never find anyone like me. Otherwise i'd do so gladly. Alot of people in my life who I thought were different were actually clones in disguise.
Everything that I see has been done a billion times before, I get imcreasingly bored with everything. Nothing seems to surprise me anymore and {Although I'd NEVER engage that kind of stupidity ), I have often thought why i should carry on living.

Everything I'm doing seems like a waste of time, i'm sure that with my ambition and qualifications that i'll live a very privileged life. However I don't seem to care about that much.

Everyday I have to count 10 reasons why I shouldn't just go nuts with a pack of codeine. Im kinda stuck guys, I didnt know who to vent this one as Im running out of friends, especially now im stuck at university.

I just wanted to reach out to the forum. I find it hard to connect with anyone these days but I know that there are people out there that know how I feel.

If you've read this far then thank you, its the sort of care that I dont expect nowadays. Any advice would be great. If not, lemme know if you want a hardcore drinking session and i'll try to book a flight"

I'm afraid this may be recieved badly, but thanks.

Andy

Hey, if you keep going things will change. If you give up now then you'll have given up your chance to do something.

 

[Berethond]

I'm having a ball living right now even thought I don't have "the right person to share it with". Shouldn't you be a complete person by yourself first, and then worry about finding something else?

And it sounds to me you need to find something you're interested in. Try doing new things until you find something that really clicks.

 

[andrew.wright16]

Hey,
Jedimathis: I won't give up solely because I hope things many chance, but still- everybody seems content with being the same, I dont know what I'm after but I cant find anything that can interest me....however you have got me into thinking about skydiving... maybe the rush is what I need.

Hey Berethond, what is it about your life that you find yourself complete? It seems thats everyone i meet is a clone of the other. Compter games bore me but offer a slight escape. I just need to find people like me but I wouldn't know where to look. I think I sound really pathetic when I use words like "morbid" and "romantic" etc.

I dunno. I think I just more people like me to interact with, trouble is.. I cant find any

 

[Eumersian]

I think maybe you need to have set a goal of some kind. This of course, would require you to have interests. For example, I am in college as a bio/pre-med major. I want to go to med school and such. That's why I'm staying in the game.

 

[SovietSecrets]

Just gotta find something to waste you time in. For me its gaming and skating, they keep me sane. Go out there and go crazy with new stuff until you find what works for you.

 

[andrew.wright16]

Well, my interest is Nuclear Physics, because im alright at maths and I can focus on work- which is what most people on my course associate with. Work seems to keep me sane atm. Gaming is god fun tho-if you're up for serious gaming/ a general laugh then hit me up on steam

username : fr05t8yt3

I dont know what goals to set though, in my eyes love is the only thing with finding. That and music.
Listen to Editors if you want to hear some sensational lyric and sounds.
Im at uni. Im throwing myself outside and instead I seem to find myself a councilor of the university and head of the media groups! I'm employable (and Iam grateful for what I have) but I feel that the I havemt found the change I need. I need something/ someone different.

If you listened to Editors then you may be in a position to help= you may feel how I do- especially weight of the world and Bones

From the looks of things you're doing okay; you have your own bullshit to complain about.

Aslong as a person has that, he's alright.

 

[Icarion (aka Stockholm)]

I dpn't have much to offer in way of experience, but maybe you could put off colledge for a year and travel teh world? I mean its expensive and maybe stupid but it'd be a change of pace. New cultures, new food, new standards. That or as teh other peple here have said find that one thing that clicks. Oh yeah and half of my family skydives and well, they're still doing it. Also you know you can hit the "Quote" button in the bottom right of each post to let the people you're replying to know that you replied?

 

[andrew.wright16]

I can see where you're coming from Shinji, I can complain all I like. But im not in danger of harming myself. I just cant see a point in living.

Icaron: Im new to the forums- i'll try that in the future. As for skydiving i'll see where it goes.

Does anyone else think that 99.99% of people are no worth knowing? I dont know. It may seem particularly arrogant and selfish but I dont know what life has to offer me now.

Man that sounds pathetic....

 

[Imp Poster]

Sounds like identity crisis? Happens when you were content of who you were in high school knowing where you stand, but in college, no cares, it is lonely especially if you went out of state for it. When did you start feeling like that?

Whatever it is, it will pass. In the mean time, maybe you should do something to take your mind off it. Find a contructive hobby, learn to do something useful like cook, or a backpack trip in some other country, help a charity with your time, etc.

I would suggest seeking medical help first, as I'm seeing some signs of clinical depression.

Second, try to go out and live the world, climb Mt. Killamanjaro, have a hike in the Russian wilderness, whatever you want to do.

 

[andrew.wright16]

I dont know. In university beig a physicist gives you some kind of superiority- which I couldnt care about either.
Cooking also sounds like a good idea. I am takig all comments constructively. I started feeling like this as soon as I realised all my friend "friends " were fake and self serving. Ever since i;ve found all students to be unbearably boring, once i've et one i've met them all...

I don't know what you need, I'll be honest. I am going to help you in your quest though.

See the "Quote" button beneath someone's post? Click that, and then type your message that responds to that person. That way, the person you quoted will get a message telling them you have responded to them, meaning that you can continue a conversation with them, instead of having to rely on them checking this thread again.

Hope that helps a bit, and good luck!

You see right- apparently Im going through a major depressive episode.

Im still stuck at uni though, and now I feel bad for wasting your time...in comparision to everything else, my tribiulations seem whatwat trivial.....

I am assuming you are talking about friends your age. Somewhere around starting university. I wouldn't take anyone seriously at that age. People are not sure what they are yet. But more importantly than anyone is you. Sounds like you need thicker skin sort of speak. No matter what people do, they will let you down. It is human. We (humans) will make mistakes all the time. It never ends, but you have the power to be lenient with the people closer to you. Understanding goes a long way. If you see that they meant to hurt you then maybe you need to break away, but sometimes, it was just a mistake.

You are not alone. I don't have much to say here other than that you need to keep searching. Eventually you will meet someone you can relate to. There are just too many people in the world for you not to find anyone.
