You're in a difficult situation, I know because I live the same way you do. The difference being that I'm already over 30 and you're so young that not having a social life hurts more, I would imagine. Learning to enjoy my own company is a struggle but I've come to the conclusion that people...

I have times when I feel at peace and when everything makes sense again but I wouldn't exactally call it an epiphany when it happens.

My home is a exact representation of what my mind is like on any given day of the week. I'm bipolar so sometimes the difference is extreme. When I'm depressed one of the best things you can do for me is clean my house :)

What you're choosing to do in this situation is brave, although misguided. The decision that you'll ultimately have to make has nothing to do with the other woman but focuses solely on you. Are you willing to sacrifice the rest of your life (and that's what you'll be doing) for the sake of...

ElizabethAnne, You've perfectly described something I experienced several years ago. For me it was life changing...it could be entirely different for you though. If you'd like to talk feel welcome to PM me. Welcome to the group, BTW :)

The cutting "trend" irritates me as well. I find it very hard to take most people who do it seriously. It seem to me like the younger generations have taken human suffering and made it into something "cool". They are *always* in more pain then anybody else...They wear scars like badges of honor...

Maybe you just haven't found the things that move you... I can't wrap my mind around the idea of you being a monk River.

If I can share both the good and bad with someone and they don't get spooked off...that makes them special right away. Otherwise, I don't have many expectations.

I can understand the position that you in...your plate sounds very full...but I would think that part of being truly successful in life is finding the right balance. You can cram your head full of all the knowledge it will hold and and find the perfect job but what if, when you finally decide to...

I've tried to commit suicide three times in my life. Eventually, life stripped me down so far that I gave up on finding a way out and just surrendered. Doing that changed my perspective on everything. Suicide is no longer an option for me because now, I know better.

I'm like that and for me it's a type depression or perpetual boredom. I just don't have an interest and sometimes I just can't invest the type of personal energy it takes to be dedicated to something like a hobbie. It embarrasses me sometimes when people ask what I do for fun and I really don't...

Men are not all the same, you just set yourself up for failure. It sounds like your very shallow when it comes to the men you choose. The good men are the ones you pass by as you chase after things you can't have.

You'll have to forgive me if I'm a little bit to blunt in this reply. My social filters are down today for maintenance... But no, it's not pathetic. Many of us have no one else to talk to...that's usually why we come here. Do you believe in the lord? I mean, really? When you go to God with an...

Hi and welcome to the group! I was "emo" before there was a word for it and I don't mind. I've never really understood why that word has such negative connotations to begin with...maybe you can explain? I'm sure you know this but people attack what they don't understand. They do it out of fear...

I rely on my daily routine and getting things done around the house to keep me busy during the day and out of my own head. It works for the most part but there's only so much one can do. By the time evening comes along I'm idle again and just waiting for something, anything to happen. Night time...
