How do you get by?
 

Ever have those days where things just suck and you really regret waking up?
Well I've been having one of that every single day for the past week and I'm just so damned depressed I've been trying to hide it but it's getting the better of me, especially today and I was just wondering what you guys do to help you get through it.

Just keep in mind one of the guiding principles of carbon-based existance: it ends.

Bad days end. So do the good ones.

Oh, and hydrocodone when the pain is too much. :)

Max

get drunk.

i go do something i enjoy to do, skateboarding, workin out, chill with my homies, just go have fun

I bottle it up until I feel like I'm gonna explode. Then I call up one of my best friends and we either go to Dairy Queen or Sno-Biz (its a really awesome sno cone place) and talk it over. Sometimes I hole myself up in my room and ignore everyone too. Just depends on my mood. And sometimes I go play at a playground...nothing gets you out of bad mood than actin like a 6 yr old. When you're stressin go back to a time when you didn't know what stress was.

And FMR...don't worry chick...Whatever has had you in a bad mood and depressed all week, has happened for a reason. Learn the lesson intended for you to learn and all will be well again. Your a sweet girl...good things and times will come your way again.:cool: ;)

You know the deal.. I dont see what I am supposed to learn from this..
"Don't trust someone if you can't look them straight in the eyes?"
"Don't trust anyone?"
"Being sweet & yourself gets you walked all over?"

Maybe I should just stay away from guys :D :rolleyes:

You've learned to stay away from guys like the one you are referring to. You've learned that you can't always trust everyone...even those that you really think you can. And yes being sweet and yourself sometimes does get you walked on....But in the long run there will be someone out there who is going to appreciate everything you have to offer the world. And all those guys who took advantage of you and your personality will regret it cuz they're missin out on a relly cool chick who they wish they wouldn't have screwed over. And you can sit back with your "Prince Charming" and laugh at them.

See I gotta keep tellin myself some of this too...helps me get past the goat f**ker...but to tell the truth it's not workin out the greatest...Not even all the people on here tellin me to forget about him. It's hard once you have strong feelings for that person and you feel like you have everything in common and are completely comfortable around them and what not. Why is nothing ever simple?

I don't think I could relate more!!
Deep down you know you should move on and you try you REALLY try! And it still does you no good, it really sucks. How can it be that the people we love sooo much can hurt us so bad? We've been burnt in the past and yet we still go back for more, hoping maybe this time around things will be different, maybe now this will look up for us, maybe now its our time to finally be HAPPY.
What really sucks tho is I haven't even hit 20 yet and already I've been burned, that SUCKS! I have lived such a small part of my life and already have scars that keep me from who I was b4 anything ever went wrong. Everytime you get burned something in you changes (to try to make you stronger) and I just wonder if when the person who is not gonna hurt me comes along, there's gonna be any of the "real" me left...

The "real" you is in there...somewhere. Only you know who that person is....and only the "right" person can find it for you. The person that you think is so right and burnt you could still end up being the right person. Everyone f**ks up. But the right person will do everything in their power to make it up to you if it's meant to be.

The really sad thing is my "burning" started when I was 9 when my dad started cheating on my mom. Haven't trusted guys that much since then. Other than being friends with them. And if I don't feel comfortable in a relationship I get out of it because of that lack of trust. For some odd reason the goat fer somehow got all of my trust in the world...and what did he do with it...threw it all away. While I sit here completely confused as to why he was the one chosen for me to give all of my trust to first. He can't possibly be the right one. We'll see what happens though. Thats all we really can do.

The experiences we have gone through, hurt us thats for damn sure, but they help shape who we are and our morals and the way we think. Everything that I've been through makes me older and much much wiser beyond my years. And I have found on this board that there are many other people like me, of course we have our moments where are immature and stupid but that's what makes us get along. In a way I wouldn't trade in my experiences, like being hurt, used and blown off in relationships because I now have an advantage over the guys who have hurt me, I learned from them and even though some were & are harder to get over than others, it's something that opens my eyes a little wider sothe next time around I know more of what I'm looking for and what I'm not.
Its good to have these experiences, even though they hurt like hell and you feel like this time you'll never get over it but when the RIGHT person does come along everything inside you will tell you that this time around its different, this time around its real, this time around its gonna work and last.
And DS.. I agree that people make mistakes, some do over and over again but theres a point where taking them back is okay and theres a point where enough is enough. Its gotta do with your situation and you need to be patient, everything has its own plan that just takes time to unfold, you rush it and it'll get messed up for sure.

No Mt. you're not totally off. I don't get too close to people too fast, but when things are going GREAT in a relationship and it doesn't ever feel like anything can go wrong, thats when I let my guard down, be completely myself and get attached. There have been times where its happened and times that it hasn't. But it's over and done with and I am over it now :)

fight him and then run him over :cool:

And mess up my paint job and have a dented bumper/hood?
*thinks*
Brick through the windshield?
Slit the tires?

I think I'm gonna go with me growing up, moving on and wishing him a good life ;)

steal a car

that works too.........not as fun but it works.

Good thinkin girl! Way to be the adult and responsible one in the relationship. I knew you'd find the right thing to do:yes:

Hahaha I can say it with no problem..
Now let's see if I can actually DO it

yah thats ALWAYS harder!!!:rolleyes:

Well girl I've done most of my talkin on AIM with you. hope it really helped. Read that book too, it'll really help out in our situation! Trust me...the sooner you get it...the clearer things will be. Hope everythign will workout for you for the best...love ya lots, Juve

Everyone reacts differently to crappy days/weeks. I either work out, go to work, or just talk or hang out with my friends. Something to get my mind off things. And if all else fails, I temporarily drink my problems away.

For the past few months i've been really really happy!
I've been goin out with friends, playing bball...and just talking to a lot more people...friends are really the main thing...find a group that you fir into, and just chill with them...like 2-3 months ago, i was really depressed...i had no friends...and i never did anything except play comp games...i was a friggin loser...but i decided to quit with all the comp shit and try to have some fun...and i did...


It's all about your friends and the people you hang with...if you like them,and have fun with them...you'll be better in no time
