If I actually owned a gun I’d probably already have done it. The other ways seem too hit-or-miss (pills, hanging, etc.).

Any idea where the depression stems from?

And I’ve searched through your threads. You should really consider rehab for your alcohol abuse. Using depressants when depressed obviously doesn’t help.

To make a long story short, about a year ago, I told a female friend of mine that I was interested in her. I basically said how I like who she is as a person and that she’s beautiful. She went away to college but we’re now working together again. We flirt quite a bit and it seems there is interest coming from her. Am I looking to far into this or should I pursue?

Circumstances are a bit weird – she’s 19 and i’m 24 and she works for me.
Sooo at the end of the summer she’s going back to college, wherever that is?

people aren’t supposed to dig up shit from this subforum and post it in the main?

I think that’s pretty fucked up…and isn’t that guy a mod too?
Agreed, its a rule to never bring these posts up otherwise..and for a mod, thats even worse
s-mod is looking into it.

ok Results came back pretty quickly.

The mod in question has been attended and notified of the offense.

However the S-Mod pointed out that both of you need to stop talking trash to eachother, regardless of who started it.

i hate half of them, which is why i’m no longer in a circle of friends.

when i hung out with them in the past, i would just be talking shit about half the people in the back of my brain. this is why i stopped hanging out with them about a year ago.

jw.
The circle of friends I have now…I don’t think any of them would come to help me when I need help. I just wish I could find a good group of reliable friends.
i guess i got really lucky

i’ve had the same circle of friends (like 5 of us) for almost 4 years, even though EVERY single one of us goes to a different college.

Theres no real way to escape it. Its just too depressing for me to be this way. How long does one have to suffer this before he is relieved of this?

No one to turn to when I need to let out whatever emotions that I want to let out, but cant. No one I know who cares or even can help. Yearning to end this all, and to find love again, strong, emotional love, not physical.

I want to be able to open up to someone again, someone who can listen and I can share happiness with.

Do any of you have any experiences with this drug?

I’ve never really heard about the use of this drug before and I’m curious. My grandfather has alzheimers and his GP gave him this to treat some of the symptoms. I’ve read a bunch about it but I’m curious to see what you all have heard about it.

My girlfriend is amazingly sweet, caring, understanding, etc, which is something I love about her… Except for when she’s these things at the expense of her own happiness. When it comes to people she calls her friends, this happens somewhat often.

Several of them abuse their friendship, using her as some sort of emotional dumping grounds for all of their problems. In the past, when she’s tried to talk to them about even small issues, they flat out ignore her, but don’t notice the hypocrisy in their lack of caring while at the same time constantly using her in this manner, and often times even asking her to intervene in the situation!

My life hasn’t had a purpose for at least this past year, but now it’s gotten to the point where I just don’t anticipate anything at all and don’t look forward to anything. There is just nothing to hope for anymore. A little backstory is that I had my very first love interest with someone who was perfect, who I can’t find anywhere, especially in this city. Ever since I met this person, I see no one else who can replace her, seriously, but that’s not the reason I was interested. We never went out, but we were friends,

Last night I had another anxiety attack, this time it was much worse than the times before. I’ve never had a problem with anxiety or experienced anything like this before… it’s all developed over the last year or so.

I won’t even get into all the things that started it, but suddenly I had this feeling of complete terror and uneasiness. I began to think of my life "as a whole" as I kept telling my boyfriend last night and I couldn’t stop either crying or just freaking out. My boyfriend came over around 1am after I called him 5 times and he couldn’t calm me down. I literally felt "crazy". I kept telling him that I didn’t KNOW what was wrong but that something was definitely really wrong.

For the last couple of years my anxiety is getting worse and worse. I don’t know exactly what a "panic attack" is persay but I do get little episodes of fear for no reason. For example in a restaurant the other day I got this feeling of extreme discomfort and I didn’t want to finish eating and it was almost painful to stay inside…so I had to go outside and take a walk for a while.

Anyway, that’s all fine and good to be to be honest. I can deal with that type of bullshit because it’s better than the other option of being medicated all of the time. That is, until it got into my sex life. When I’m with certain people, I get hard as a rock and I’m great in bed. Generally (this is amateur by the way) these girls tend to be Type-B quiet personalities. However, I am with a girl now that I’m actually really really into..and that’s the first time in a while I can actually say that. The first time we got physical we were able to have sex, but it was bad because it was on the beach and sandy and quick because there were people close by . The second time I had the house all to myself with her. It was going to be an amazing night right?
