Heres some tough advice...

1) F...k male pattern baldness ,shave your head,get a tan, join a gym...and pump iron like a maniac.

2) F..k your ex..lots of fish in the sea.

3)Get you degree..university of pheonix has a great online program that you can do parttime.

4) Stop being a victom...become a victor!!!!!!!

5)Take you problems away from yourself by helping someone else once in a while..visit some sick kids in the hospital or something...make someone smile. This has a great anti-depressant effect. Volunteer ..whatever...

6)Also remember there are people way worse off then you...so do what YOU can do... NOW!

oddly enough dorianyates your point 5 is exactly what i suggested in an earlier aplunk:i hate myself thread. helping other people does seem to have a beneficial effect both ways.

Depressed people aren't allowed to have commercial pilots license. The ONLY thing I have had any amount of passion for is aviation. I have no other interests except getting laid, but that happens once in a blue moon. Had I just stuck with being miserable, I could have followed my dream, and then by having that job, I probably would have been happy, and women throw themselves at pilots. Every flight attendant I know wants to bang the captail and first officer. They have some "point" system.. It's kinda pathetic actually. But, ruined, done for.. I guess they assume I'm going to want to kill myself and take everyone with me. Jeebus. Me flying an airplane would make me have an ear to ear grin. But that's it. I'll never be one, my only dream.

could you go into a little more detail recboi? dont totally see how that could be possible.

 

[Aplunk1]

I just quit my job on impulse tonight.

I've had it. I just snapped. I think I had a nervous breakdown.

My life is over. It's f*****g over.

 

[Guest]

uhh, you sound as if you will kill yourself tomorow.

 

[powersam]

aplunk you think your life is over because you quit a job you hate? odd reasoning there

recboi sorry to hear that. you've investigated all possibilities? join the army maybe. does it need to be a commercial license, maybe you could become a crop duster or something, or helicopter pilot. just throwing things out there, i have no idea as to the rules and regulations

 

[Aplunk1]

Yeah, and now I just looked into going to school at UNR in the fall. I missed the application due date by a couple of days.

I'm fucked.

 

[powersam]

Andy, I have to ask you a candid question and I hope you don't take offense at it, but, have you been drinking a lot lately? I only ask because your behaviors recently are similar to those of someone who has been binging the alcohol a bit. The irrational anxiety, mood swings, etc.

 

[Aplunk1]

Yeah, and I've been "smoking the sacrament" a lot lately to relieve a lot of that anxiety.

The most I drink at one time is like 2 beers, and that gets me really buzzed. I used to be a lot more of a drinker, but I can't manage more than a few beers at a time. Maybe a shot. But that's it... no binge drinking, really.

My little brother is coming into town for a few days and staying at my place, so I'm going to avoid the smoking (threw the rest out) and probably avoid the alcohol, too.

 

[recboi]

Wow, I am so easily going to drink you under the table.
