Quote from N I K I :

Why do you worry about ppl who aren't related to you in anyway! Why to bother about Africa or whatever. Be happy that you're born there where you are, be happy for internet that scientists created and all other great stuff. And also I swear it's much better situation on Earth now, then it ever was. Imagine that you were born few centuries back and had no TV, computer, clubs to go out. Imagine that you had to be slave or whatever and you'll realize how lucky you are now. So stop worrying about earthquakes in China :P

I thought he said that he is no longer agnostic, and that he finally realised that people are responsible for their actions instead of a devil.

Your country just won the euro after 40+ years. Go out, drink a beer and celebrate with your friends.

How can you miss something that you never even imagined of?If he was born back then.
You may think that we are lucky to be born now with all that fancy stuff like computers internet etc....but all those "luxuries" can be one of the reasons of depression because people get stuck infront of a screen all day.


This is just my opinion.

Harsh as it may sound, learn to develop a shield for all the shit that happens in the world. Know that it happens, know that it's bad, but try not to care so much. If one person starts worrying about everyone's problems then yes, they'll lose their minds at some point.

Keeping yourself sane is the only way to stay sane, if that makes any sense.

Definitely agree. Try going without a computer or any form of communication other than voice for a week or so. I bet you'll feel at least 37% more relaxed.

I sometimes wish I lived in the steam age, now that was a time of great progress.

Quoted for accuracy. I was off work for a couple of weeks last month, couldn't even get out of bed into the office, so just put up with my only electronics being an Xbox 360 and the mobile, felt about 400% more relaxed when I went back to my normal routine.

I know I definitely couldn't go a week without a PC. I did manage to go a week without internet week before last in Spain (OK OK, I caved on the last day :shy, but I have nothing else to do TBH. Living 20 miles from a town is a balls indeed

Yeah, that's a long time to go without porn.

How is your life that empty that you have to have computer based contact at least once a week?

Because I live literally in the middle of nowhere. There is no-one anyway near me. My girlfriend lives 15 miles away

So I've nothing better to do, except go on the PC

Not like I'm always forum whoring or playing games though, I can do productive stuff

Grreeeeat. Makes me feel so much better, thanks P5YcHoM4N

I think I would just go ahead and do myself in, but thats just me.

Quote from dougie-lampkin :

I am not sure jerking it counts as productive. Unless you're a donor, in which case well done.

You're welcome.

My life seriously is that empty. But emptiness is not a reason to be depressed. I'm just waiting until I'm old enough to go to all the fun places (bars, stripclubs, etc)

Quote from lerts :

before i used to be agnostic i was suspicious that when somebody tried to do something very evil god didnt let him but the devil made a fake of this world with fake horrible news

though im sane now im so very depressed, how can you stand this reality where children get sexually abused and die of hunger in front of their mothers and so many horrible diseases and so much unjustice, i cant

i think i should go back to smoking because it causes me hallucinations that makes me suspicious this world is a fake while the real one is dream like

i think if i got completly sane like don quijote will be my end

sanity makes me suicidal, madness makes me happy

so i dont know what to do be sane and take the risk of killing myself or go back smoking and be crazy but very happy

besides in a way im more sane when i smoke because i doubt, im agnostic, while now i dont believe in anything, just that this world is so sick

so what would you choose live sane but unhappy or crazy but happy?

What you are describing is that you suffered psychosis whilst spending way too much of your life on drugs and that you are most likely bipolar or depressive. Both of these things would be best dealt with by a mental health professional - I know, i'm on my 12th...

When I quit drugs it took me years to come to terms with the fact that there is a big part of my life where I still have no idea what was real and what wasnt. I stopped trying to rationalise it a long time ago, I had too, because the answers where not there to be had.

It wasnt an easy path and at one point I was resolved to taking an opt-out clauses by jumping in a lake but I was found and wrestled to the ground whilst on my way to it. Incidentally, I can think of no other moment in my life which gave me so much peace and mental clarity as the time after i'd decided to kill myself, the weight being lifted off me was a sensation I could feel physically and the calmness that followed was fantastic. However I do not recommend suicide as a meditation technique... :P

I've had other stuff to deal with too but giving up drugs was the landmark around the time at which I started to heal, and apart from a small slip up earlier this year I guess that was about a decade ago. If I ask myself now whether it was worth doing it? I say yes, emphatically.

See the world truly is a messed up place, I tend to think of hell as being a state of mind that is in this world not the next one, and there is indeed so much fundamentally wrong with the society our forefathers have given us - but although I have a conscience about the world, and if I could there is a lot of things that make me angry that I would change, it doesnt get me down because it also has a lot of good in it - specifically my partner.

This might be greed, but when you find somebody special it's well worth putting up with the bad stuff to spend time with them enjoying the good stuff.

I wouldnt trade my life for anything, things turned out the way they did but I got to where I am and right now i'm truly happy.

Giving up drugs was the best thing I ever did. Yes it's a shame my first love had to die of an OD before I could see that, and i'll always miss her, but in my way I dont regret it. It was just her time and her hell is over now, and she gave me the strength to end my hell and get to where I am today.

Dont let the opportunity to make a better life for yourself slip away, there are some things that are worth fighting for.
