sometimes stress gets me down.
 
You have a beautiful wife, go give her a meaningful hug and kiss. Get lost in it.
 
oh, i thought you meant like the 1970's "get down". like a james brown tune. i'm clinically depressed, one of the worst things that can happen to a person.

man i feel sorry for u. it must be really hard on u.
 
Why would I ever get down? I have the perfect life, no drama and stress free. Seriously, my first serious depression spell was when my daughter was just a baby.

I thought the same thing. :lmao:

Yes, I get stressed induced depression. I have a good way of hiding it. No one close to me knows when I have it. I usually neglect things & become super lazy when I get it.

yeah, it's real nice just waking up and wanting to paint the walls with your brains. nothing will help, lest i let them kill that part of my brain....
 
stress in the home is what kills me,i can handle other kinds of stress well,but when its somewhere I cant get away I have issues with it
 
Wootoom said:

We didn't want her in daycare. I was working 24 hours on the weekend and staying home with her during the week when she was less than 6 months old. At that age, they are still just a shitting, eating machine without much personality. For some reason, I started getting real depressed. I think I needed to be working more.
 
DZLS said:
that first year is probably the toughest, cause you're on demand 24 hours a day...

Yeah, it's real stressful. You worry about them all the time. And you can't take your eyes off them when they are awake. You sleep when they sleep.
 
i had the most horrible thing happen to me when my son was just over 7 months old... he crawled over to the basement door, and down he went...

i still replay that shit in my head all the time... i am so thankful that he was ok, and nothing happened to him, or i'd never be able to forgive myself...

hell, i still haven't forgiven myself for it, so i'm probably a little over protective if him still... :(

I'm identical to you. If the stress gets to me too much, it depresses me. My mind seems to go into hiding like a turtle. It sucks, but each time I usually come out stronger. Training the mind to negative energy forces it to grow, it's just like a muscle. What dont kill you will only make you stronger.

Although, I guess you gotta have that instinct to make your negatives equal positives. Otherwise, your weakness will make you buckle and not get up.

Yes, I agree. Its weird how no one knows. Even the stuff I neglect, when I begin to climb myself out of it, I catch up on everything immediately. I always come out of stronger and with a clearer view.

yeah, that's great, Mr. Positive. what'd ya do when some fucking black asshole comes up and splatters you and some other dude all over each other??? oh wait, positive thinking will make it all better. i'm tired of listening to this bullshit. my body is a fucking wreck and i've been in pain every day for the last 10 years. it doesn't get better as you get older.....
 
I just think of the scene in Rocky where his wife came out of the coma and Rocky said, "Listen if you don't want me messin' around with Creed, I'll understand." Then his wife said, "Come here." And when Rocky got close to her, she said as she stared intently into his eyes, "Win! Win!." That shit still sends goose bumps up and down my spine. And then Mick says, "What are we waitin' for!" Goddamn I can take on the world when I watch that. I get down, but I always get the fuck back up, because if you lay there, you're gonna die. And since I'm gonna die anyway, I'm going down swinging.

Yeah, that would have taken a few years off my life. My daughter had a hemmorhage in front of me. She nearly died right in front of my eyes. Was throwing and spitting up blood.

Wait...you're ALSO an asian midget who's pretending to be a black chick?

Glad you remembered what I said. You and I share similar father figures. It would appear NYC and I are similar in the ways in which we react to stress.

I try to limit the stress in my life. I design my life to have the minimal amount of stress and I meditate a lot. I've had a lot of stress lately, but I can take it because I've learned to cope and if I ain't dyin' it ain't that bad. Good drugs help as well.

see thats me ... i dont have much stress and i dont put my self in stressful situations(no kids, no gf, wife, big bills, hard core job) so i dont have much stress..plus being in a good christian also helps too.

i have a good life prolly a 9.75 out of 10... no need to sweat the small stuff.. i always go to bed with a smile excited about tommorrow.

That's awesome. No need to complicate things. We need some stress, but just a little. Those 5 things you mentioned are definitely at the top of the stress list.

it's the fucking truth! everyone has to face adversity some time or another. you make it, you live. you don't make it, you die. no one gets out of life alive......

I agree with you that getting older sucks. Ain't nothing good about flesh slowly rotting. If you could stop at 40, would be okay. At this age, you've been thru everything and are tough enough to handle anything life throws at you, but you can't beat terminal illness.

chuck norris could!

seriously though. I'm so stressed out right now. I don't know what the fuck i'm doing with my life. I hate my job. lately i've found myself dwelling on the past.
 
I see stressors as motivators. Shit needs to get done sometimes and when the pressure is on males tend to do well.

And yes it does get me down. Engineering is the toughest shit I have ever done. Hours and hours of studying, working, dealing with people I'd rather punch in the neck all that to get a 3.0 sometimes. And those fucken business majors dont even have class on fridays, or at 8am...

But you gotta see through all the bullshit. Take it one step at a time and not get overwhelmed by the big picture. Then take on the tasks that way.

Good tood dude you"ll go far.

Dude, I respect the road you've had to take to get this far, but damn. I ain't stoppin' at 40. I'm still waiting for the good stuff to happen.
 
Do something to help yourself relax......stress can sometimes be good but it sounds like the kind that you have going on is not.....so go relax
 
Hey woot I can't send u Karma, but even w/ the future your new child presents you with, sometimes the day to day stuff can really sit on you. In my house, my 16 lb cat sits on me. But sometimes I throw him off, even if he leaves a pile of cat hair in my lap, I still get up & deal w/ life.

Damn that was deep.

Ok no it wasn't.

Anyway, happy thoughts & cat hair to you mon ami!
 
Can't say I'm overly stressed right now - somewhat....but pretty darn depressed....
 
no, really, it's like flipping a coin. somedays i just wanna die. no particular reason, i just stop caring......plus, i've been in pain for so fucking long, i go to the gym just to make other parts of my body hurt..............just to make it feel, even, i guess. it's hard to explain.
 
eh, not really. Not enough time to waste on it. I'd rather be uppity, fuck stress and fuck yer ol lady, if she's not around, have a date with lucy and rosie. Maybe even let them have a brownie or two

Whiskey

*raises hand*

no class on fridays! :)
 
you mean like this morning when I found out I didn't win 250 million in powerball?
 
yeah i reached the bottom about 6 months ago and slowly coming out but still carry a lot of emotional scarring and hurt.

Fuck it all..........life may not always be the party we hoped, but we may as well dance while we are here.
 
humantarget said:
it's not stress with me. it's pain. i either suffer or become a junkie. nice options.

Are drugs the only way to alleve the suffering?

I don't know what you've been through, so I guess its easy for me to ask that question. I'm sorry if I offended you.
 
thelion2005 said:
Oh yes.

I sometimes just go "through the motions" of the day until it lifts.
I know it will.

Doing something decent for someone else helps a lot.

It's that damn estrogen. LOL

THis is the kind of wisdom that only comes with age. I figure if all this stress hasn't killed me by now, it's not going to. I used to worry about it, now I just do what you said. Go thru the motions until its over. In the midst of a funk, it can seem like it will last forever, but when you've been thru it a zillion times, you know better. Only poor health can destroy me.
 
I've never been "clinically depressed". I suffer from the otherside of the same coin called anxiety.

Still self medicating with booze and xanies.

I don't worry about it. If & when it happens, I'll deal with it then.

I get down about 2-3 times a year. Nothing like real depression. Just a little break down, then I'm good again.
It's like my brain is on some kind of natural Prozac.

Your working out is the alternative to the blade. You do it so you can disperse the pain. It sucks, I'm feelin it.
