Yeah. Every time I start making progress in one area something comes up to set me back in another. As I try to deal with that, the first thing regresses.
And the typical work of daily life just keeps piling up.

Yes. I've had a massive failure today like you couldn't believe. No point me trying anything anymore. It leads to crushing failure and people love to take advantage. Everything we're told about doing our best and work hard is bullshit pure and simple.
I'm now going to get the drunkest I've ever been in my life.

Worst part is its pretty much impossible to recognise at the time just how much depression reprograms not just your present but your future and your past as well wirh everything you have done, loved and enjoyed seeming tarnished even though normally it might be stuff you're really proud of. It truly is a motherfr.
By default the world doesn't care about you. At all. The feeling that it's inherently biased against you is one that comes from within rather than the reality.

I was thought there is nothing wrong with being by yourself. And there isn't.
Nothing wrong with getting hammered travelling and taking up hobbies by yourself.
But me sitting in a pub having a drink waiting for trivia to start by myself is ****ing pathetic. Why I put myself through this crap is beyond me. Going home.

Awwww stop! Pity you didn’t live closer. I’d go to trivia with you but I’m dumb as dog shit so unless the questions were about food, cakes or animals…. I’d be shit but surely there are smaller groups you could join.

It’s not real mate
The world really doesn’t care , it’s neither cruel nor fair nor unfair , it just is .
It rolls on regardless as it has done from time immortal and will do forever
We are the masters of our destiny, no one else

Anyone here ever been diagnosed with anything or psychologically assessed? And I mean really not some 2 bit half wit giving their 2 bobs worth.
I have twice... never again but may need to go again.
I seem to just not think like regular people (whoever they are).
But it's getting to the point I'm seriously damaging my life where I want to remove myself from society

I am the devil that you forgot
My wife and daughter were both diagnosed with adhd in the last 12 months. The medication and understanding of how their brains work has made a huge difference to their lives.

I think for my wife it just gave her clarity on why she always felt a bit different to everyone. She doesn’t always take the meds just on the days where she needs her head to not be all over the place so she can concentrate on the jobs she “needs “ to get doneThat’s fab news bc my daughter is going through that process now. I should too but I think - **** it. Why change what I know to something I don’t

I can’t. I am one scattered mother ****er. I have big highs and big lows. Nothing much going on in between. I make sure there are more good days then bad bc it’s a lot harder to climb out of that pissy bloody hole.
But work wise. I’m all over the shop and it annoys the **** out of me. I end up in tears most days bc I get so angry at myself for being so shit at life but in the same breath…. I love life so have my meltdowns and move on very quickly and feel really dumb afterwards. Every bloody time

I'm feeling a bit nervous- this is usually around this time of year, or in a month or so the seasonal kicks in.
I ****ing hate it. Like being up half the year, down the other half.

Same thing is happening to me.
People think I'm nuts when I say my biggest struggle is getting up at 630 in the dark. And then I'm rendered useless till 1130.
Do.anything. drink don't drink go out don't go out read watch TV date don't date makes **** all difference.
Just need to find a way that suits you.
Problem is it isn't always easy to change
