I Could Use Your Thoughts and Prayers

[Pats1989]

I really wanted the Patriots to win tonight. They were one of very few good things in my life. I realize them winning wouldn't of mattered in a few days. However I was hopeful.

Even losing it shouldn't matter in a few days.. Life should always go on.

Hope springs eternal, my friend.

Welp.....I was wrong...

You are right. Now be dancing!

Hope last night was a big boost to everyone's spirits!! Brady and company won't quit when the odds were 99.7% of failure, so why would you?

Add another good thing to your life. Send me a PM btw if you want to talk (or anyone for that matter). I've talked to a couple of people in this thread and we've helped each other out a lot.

This win made me forget all about what I've been going through for a brief moment. I've told a few guys here about it and they have been so kind to listen. It is just so great when a singular focus can bring so much joy to so many like me. What a team and what a forum. Love you guys. For real.

My day consists of waking up at 7 or 8 AM, crying for hours, not being able to eat, sleep, worry about anything & everything, function like normal people, getting sick. I haven't been able to work for over a year. Psychologists, medications, day programs, walks, better food, nothing has worked. I want so many things. I just can't go through life like this. The only reason I am here is my family.

I am 27 years old ( Located in Halifax, Canada) and my life has and is passing me by. I'm beaten mentally and physically. I pray everyday to the higher up power. Anxiety, depression beats you up. My prayers are with those affected by this and other diseases.

If anyone ever has any specific questions for me, feel free to reach out. I want to be able to help others if I can.

I've just read this and am passing on whatever strength and hopes I can through this post.
I hope you are trying every thing that modern and ancient medicine has come up with.
And I hope you can feel the love on the Board today, given what happened for all of us last night.
Peace and joy to you.

Have you ever thought of saving for a year or two and dropping everything to see the world on your own? I had a buddy that was stuck in a funk. All of us were finding ourselves in long term relationships and he was just kind of sticking it out. He worked for Merrill Lynch as an advisor and talked to people on the phones all day then went to the local watering holes on the weekend so life was getting monotonous. He saved a few thousand dollars and went to New Zealand, Thailand, Australia, and a few islands around there. He spent a few months in NZ and on the islands surfing and staying in hostels to conserve money and is now in Australia exploring on the weekends and working during the week (he got a work permit) as a bartender. Low hours for spending cash then, on the weekends, he goes to different parts of the continent and surfs. He's met a countless amount of new people and seems to have found some inner peace. I'm honestly not sure if he'll return. He said he probably will when he can no longer work over there and has no choice but to come back.

I think that would be good for you, to be honest. I think you'd end up "finding yourself" by doing that. You seem to have a fragile mind state and being around toxic people in your hometown certainly won't help that. Go on a trip to an area of the world for a while (my buddy has been gone a little over a year now), meet new people, and have experiences that you'll never forget. You'll still have a home to come back to afterward and you may find that you'll come back with a refreshed mind and a soul that isn't beaten down anymore.

Thanks mate. Definitely looking at exploring Australia. I do have money saved yet keep thinking of how " costly" it'll be. Am going to just do it.

I've actually disposed of a few negative people in my life. That should help. Also won 50/50 ( 8 grand) at a hockey game. Although I've learned money doesn't buy happiness.

I do appreciate the insight.

Do it, man. Go away for at least a year if you can. You're young and it would be a life changing experience. I don't think it's your mind that's worn down as much as it is your soul.

Money can buy you another opportunity if you want it.

Very nice. How long do you plan to stay over there? I can ask my friend for advice on where you need to bounce around to.
