you know, you may be right. it doesn't matter what I post, there are those vultures out there waiting to jump on me regardless, just to make themselves seem more impotant than they really are. but, I guess, if it wasn't me they were jumping on, they'd find someone else to beat up and belittle. must make them proud to tear up other people in this manner.
Well at least you're consistent and nothing's changed....once again you are the victim of your own thread. My advice to you is that you should go back and read every single thread you have ever posted under all of your different names and re-read all of the heartfelt and good advice that I and others have put a lot of time and thought into. You should also take notice as to how you have struck down every single suggestion that anyone has ever made. People get tired Mike, of putting time and effort into someone who doesn't really want to do anything to help themself.
Being in a depression is a catch 22. You feel miserable, know you need help, but you also feel hopeless and that nothing can or will ever change, no matter what efforts you make. It really is a dark cloud to live under that if you don't sufer from it, you won't ever really understand it. Mist i think you probably have had very good intentions in trying to help Michael in the past, as many posters have. You speak of the time and effort put in as if you are anticipating a return on this invetsment of advice. That's unreasonable given the nature of what he is going through. You assume he doesn't really want to do anything, but do you consider maybe he truly cannot, because his depression is so severe it has crippled him in this capacity. i know your frustrated but going from trying to help to being unkind by saying people are getting tired of putting time and effort into him doesn't really help the situation, maybe it alleviates your frustration, i don't know.
Michael you sound like a decent human being and i wish you the best in your lifes journey. Only you have the real power to make changes you need to make - psychiatrists, meds, etc are all tools - depression is a tough battle, no doubt, but i once was told it's a thought disorder and if you change the way you think - even if you do not believe the things you tell yourself, you can improve the depression. Thanks for sharing and a heartfelt good luck to you.
