Re: My Friend Killed Himself

My story is similar-a good work friend, a man who loved his wife and kids, who loved being a policeman, a man who always had a smile, whose outlook on life often infuriated me because he was always, I mean always so positive, a person who could have a steaming pile of feces thrown on him and somehow...

Re: I know something's wrong, but don't know how to fix it

I think you should take your doctor’s advice, take some time off and adjust your lifestyle! This is just an example, I’m not comparing my life to yours-I have two kids and at one point I stayed home and took care of them for two years. It was a difficult adjustment and my wife and I had to seriously...

Re: Do I have depression or just feeling down?

https://list.ly/list/1CE4-looking-up-from-the-stubborn-darkness , listen, you are important and more people than you realize need you around! Don’t ever compare yourself to others, I can always find someone doing better than me, envy and greed will eat you alive! I would suggest going through the l...

Re: Dead inside

You’re a fighter, you’re still here despite all of the disadvantages, you should be proud of that! My father was an abusive alcoholic, I found him one day in a pool of his own urine and vomit after he OD’d on cocaine…he apparently wanted to branch out, alcoholism wasn’t ruining our family enough! An...

Re: The pain

Ok, well if you don’t feel you have anything to live for and the pain YOU’RE feeling is the only thing that matters, go to church, find the answer from any and all religious organizations that will listen! When you’re done with that take a few minutes to think about someone else other than YOURSELF!...

Re: Drowning in depression

Listen, this is a great first step! Continue reaching out, do you have any friends or family who might be available? A lot of people don’t seem to think friends and family will be open or they’d be embarrassed, when in reality, they’re just as scared about life and maybe they have something to share...

Re: everything is coming to an end

Is it safe to say your ‘step-dad’ is unwilling to help or that there is some animosity between the two of you? Have you been to a recruiter, I know they have recently let go of several outdated thoughts about asthma and other health related issues. Keep your head up, there are so many other avenues ...

Re: Giving this a shot...

This may sound elementary, but I’ll forge ahead anyway…you mentioned working out, art galleries, and museums; have you tried developing relationships around these activities? Local groups or clubs? I’m not a ‘sports guy’ either, I like watching football here and there, but I can’t name the players o...
