I was going to say the same thing.
Also, falling more and more hopelessly depressed as every day ticks by.

That can be a tough slump to get out of. Not getting out of the house? Just alone? You could try
making a habit of going out to public locations like a library. Sometimes just being around
others helps.
You ought to try chatting someone up. The easiest thing to do is talk to someone you're close to,
it helps ease the initial discomfort of conversation. Friends or family.

Breaking routine can be healthy for that kind of thing sometimes. You may just get in a bad
mindset after a while and not see anything else happening for you. Try to commit to something
new. If you feel down about your current situation, try to explore your options. Sometimes
possibilities and opportunities can open up that way.

>>3024523 I'm fairly young and have limited time and funds, which I'm trying to solve. But right

Escapism is a hard road to walk without really losing your way. The longer you walk it the harder
it gets.

I can empathize with that. Try to keep your focus on sorting things out for yourself. Whiling
away the hours feeling like that is pretty depressing, I know, but you can try to convince
yourself things can be better for you. It's scary to think things will stay the way they are
forever, but they usually won't. Sometimes the best thing to do is stay occupied working towards
making things better. It's good to reflect once and a while, but don't get bogged down like that.

Thanks, guys. It's been a rough few weeks, and it's hard to keep myself up and going, but I
really appreciate having a little reassurance. I'm going to work on some goals I've had set in
mind for a long while now, and start working to be better. Sometimes it's just a lot of stuff
building up, you know? But this helped. I'll try to get some rest soon, after I finish this one
bit of writing. Thanks for cheering me up.

I feel you man, I get that too.
It's like I usually enjoy myself when I go out with others but at the same time when I'm on my
own I feel like it's the last thing I want to do. Every day you spend by yourself you feel worse
and worse which can easily become a cycle which leads to depression.

For me the problem is regret.
I feel like... I had a string of bad luck but maybe if I hadn't gone into isolation following
those bad experiences I could have prevented further bad things from happening and I could have
maybe salvaged certain opportunties that really mattered to me but now feel far more impossible
then they felt even back then.
I feel like all this time thats passed this wall of regret has been building and building.
Its always present somewhere in my subconsious and when I start to consider ending the cycle it
becomes much more clear in my mind.
That sort of makes me wanna just turn away and look deeper into the abyss.
I know I need to break the cycle soon.... I have already let it go on wayyyyyyyyyy longer then I
know is acceptable but its not easy.

Welp... that sucks.
Happy Birthday though.
On a bright note you're probably still pretty young which makes carving a new path for yourself
easier then it otherwise would be.
Though I can't say that for sure... just being hopeful for you.
For me I wasted years of my life and some of my looks on things that didn't pan out... so I don't
even have the gift of true youth to fall back on. Not that I am old or something but I am a teen
anymore.

It does, but thanks. I'm turning 24 which I guess is relatively young. Part of my problem is that
I live in a ghetto ass city where you tend to come of age pretty quick. I spent most of my teen
years doing drugs and browsing /b/, and now that I'm clean, the people I want to be friends with
are in the middle of their "smoke weed erry day" phases because they were brought up in an
environment that paints all drug use in a bad light.

Stay strong out there. The world can be a rough place, try to show yourselves some of the same
compassion you might show to others, as you move forward. It's odd, and difficult, but possible
to change from a position of self-compassion, rather than self-hate.

Problem? Oh...Where do I begin?
Been for the past few months depressed. Lack of motivation, and it sucks when affecting work.
Mother recently got cancer. Although she's used to hardship bodily due to past injuries and got
cardiac problems at age around 40, she's more or less blooming optimism. It's not the bad sort,
thankfully. However, telling it around to keep herself in high spirits.... It's sad. It's the big
C-word of course.
I dunno what to do the next year. Studying or work. Appliance dates are due fairly soon.
Maybe I should get together and drop a few pounds while at it.
>> [_] Anonymous 02/17/16(Wed)07:08:07 No.3024588
I do nothing but study study study.
I know that technology and the entertainment industry is only going to get more popular and
cancerous.
I figured the best way to beat the cancer is to become the cancer.
Try to kill it from the inside out.
Wish me luck.

how? is it because some inventions are totally unnecessary because they are made and sold

Technology and the entertainment industry.
That means technology that is used in the entertainment industry.
Not technology in general.

I can relate. The one thing that kept me through a uni similar to yours was the fact that I was
numb because my long crush died after I confessed my feelings and discovered she also loved me.
It was on the first year of uni and I had nothing else to do in life but study. Just cancel any
other thought and go full robot mode, if that helps. Studying sucks
>> [_] Anonymous 02/17/16(Wed)09:04:40 No.3024621

Yeah agreed.
I don't even bother with friends anymore, especially the ones that think they know more than you
do about the very thing you're studying.
Then you look at them; they haven't done anything with their life and just sit around playing
games and smoking weed.

Nah they're just the type of people who seem to think they know about things such as how videos
are encoded, how audio is edited, how video games are designed, the amount of work that's
required in software engineering etc.
I do have knowledge in regards to art to some degree but that is mandatory after all knowing your
way around something like Photoshop.
Friends in the industry itself won't be so hard I reckon, at least I'd actually be learning
something from them.

School studies?
I ended up just scraping through and putting almost no effort into anything.
Spent most of the time actually learning something I wanted to learn.
Then when I finally finished school, I took what knowledge I had learned on this thing I was more
interested in and decided to work my way up - getting certified so I can gain work experience.
Not seeing much of a point getting great scores at school only to spend years studying something
you end up hating at uni all for a piece of paper and no real hands on experience in the field.

I have extreme depression and anxiety. I have this because of the seizures I have. I only have
them at night, so I usually wake up in the hospital. These are caused by brain damage, which was
caused by a brain abscess, which was caused by a tooth infection. The medicine I am taking for
the seizures gave me kidney stones and cause me to lose my short term memory. I am currently
disabled because of this. If I didn't smoke weed everyday to help with the anxiety and depression
I probably would have killed myself already.
