When I struggle to get my contacts in. >_>

I just got a new set, it's got a different liquid thingy inside and makes my eyes sting and cry.

-White people problems

How about First World Country Problems? XD Yeah... I just got mine on tuesday of last week. They were fine when I first put them in (Toke FOREVER to get them in though!) and now they are a little stingy, I adapt to it though. 

Not depressing story, but i recall when i first got contacts, sitting in my bathroom sink (because if i sat in the sink i could be closer to the mirror) for 2 whole hours trying to get the damn things in there.



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

Hmm after reading this thread.

Right now well since the beginning of the year, theres something wrong with me but i cannot put my finger on it, its annoying because my gf for almost 4 years now can tell somethings wrong but for the life of me i cannot figure it out.

Although i am trying out for a new position at work so i think its more stress than anything.

I'm just lucky i got my car and its new engine always makes me smile when i walk up to it

Jobs jobs jobs jobs jobs. The possibility of completely failing at life despite going to college and doing quite well is a sobering one. Not one single reply to a few dozen applications...

Exactly this. This is by far my biggest fear and whenever I think about it I tend to start getting slightly depressed.

For some reason it seems like I am not able to find a girl to hang out or a anything anymore... Until I was 22 it was always very easy for me to get alone with girls, but now it seems for some reason I am kind of invisible or something. Almost four years of drought now, and not a single cloud on the sky yet...
Most of my friends are either married or too busy working that it feels like I have no old friends anymore, I am not thinking about getting married soon (no girl hence the problem) or getting another job (too lazy) and I dont feel like going out with 18-20 years old fellows nor 35+ fellows either... No friends to go out and no luck with girls... /emo


how old are you now?

Wow that is sad. You need to get some confidence man. It seems that alot of people/nerds on this site have low confidence in themselves and can't get women. Before you can be happy with someone else you need to look in the mirror and ne happy with yourself. 

  I know it is a matter of confidence. Somehow I lost confidence after I got rejected by the most amazing woman I have ever met. After that I felt very bad and I promised to stay away from any woman (Pathetic I know). It didnt take long before I tried again but I got rejected again, so I thought obviously I was doing something wrong. I dont have any real female friends (I know some women from work and stuff, but nothing close to a real friend) so I had no real clue on what  was I doing wrong to begin with. So after a few more tries (some were somehow successful some others though...) I realized it had to be me and so my confidence fell down big time. Little by little I feel like I am losing some social skills, for some reason I cannt even keep eye contact with anybody anymore, I feel nervous to talk to people (even when I talk to a bank teller or at the register)... I have a relatively nice job and my economic situation is fine so I guess I am doing some things right but socializing is becoming a major problem for me. 

 

@hesapooka: 26.


If you ever need any girl advice or want to talk about your situation send me a message or something. I'd be more than happy to talk to just talk to you about it or give you tips or advice you want. 



I was walking down along the street and I heard this voice saying, "Good evening, Mr. Dowd." Well, I turned around and here was this big six-foot rabbit leaning up against a lamp-post. Well, I thought nothing of that because when you've lived in a town as long as I've lived in this one, you get used to the fact that everybody knows your name.

I love to do filmmaking. But when it's over, I enter such a big depression phase... True passion or total addiction.

When something good is over. I'm a very nostalgic kind of guy.



Around the Network

Not having a clear vision about my future.

Doing things that I used to find fun and now I don't.

Being out of shape.



I want to do all sorts of things to help people out and make cool projects. But if I invest too much time into those things, my own life suffers, pushing me back towards depression. But if I don't invest time into those sorts of things, I feel like I'm neglecting my duty. So a lot of the time, I am very serious. Even when I'm playing games, I only do so because I feel it benefits my mental health, therefore maximizing my output.

And then I realize that no matter how hard I work, I'm going to let somebody or another down, because I adopt too many causes and projects and lack the social skills to get help in any of them.



In other news, I heard today that Edd Gould died of leukemia. He was 23.



Love and tolerate.

Contemplating my own suicide.

Coming to terms with my pan-sexuality.

Thinking about whether or not the western world or world in general will be around in the next ten years.

Chronic headaches are getting worse and more recently my ability to concentrate and read are deteriorating.

Worrying whether or not I have a brain tumor, extensive brain damage or have had a stroke in my sleep.

My general motivation to live disappearing.

Long term loneliness taking its toll.



Pixel Art can be fun.

Who is Edd Gould? One of your relatives?

 

@MikeCM

What did you use to find fun, but do not anymore?


I wish.

Edd Gould is... was an internet animator and comedian. From 2005 to 2011, he produced dozens of videos and over a hundred comics. Somehow, he became very popular, and was at one point commissioned by the UN to make a cartoon about Global Warming. Despite this, he always remained very humble, willing to help out others and compliment the work of noobs. Thing is, he's been battling leukemia for at least half of his career. But he never let that get in the way of being funny.

He died at the age of 23. He touched more lives in his short career than most people can in lifetimes several times longer.

Here's one of his better toons: http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/527474
