It's amazing how life can change so much. One day you can have the world at your feet and then it can be swept away in the blink of an eye. I used to have it all and then I failed at life, big time. I've failed my friends, I've had numerous problems with my employer lately, but worst of all I have failed my kids and that is unforgivable. Don't take your eye off the ball and never take your life for granted. If you win at life, then it can be magical. I've had some great times along the way and many achievements for a man of my age and hopefully when people look back on my life, that will be the everlasting memory of me. Life is precious and everybody should remember that, so take a minute tonight to reflect on that and hug those closest to you. 83 x
I've had a few dark time in my life 83'....but I came through bigger and better for it. Keep strong mate, as you rightly say, life is precious, get through the bad times and appreciate the good times.
What is this life if, full of care, We have no time to stand and stare. No time to stand beneath the boughs And stare as long as sheep or cows. No time to see, when woods we pass, Where squirrels hide their nuts in grass. No time to see, in broad daylight, Streams full of stars, like skies at night. No time to turn at Beauty's glance, And watch her feet, how they can dance. No time to wait till her mouth can Enrich that smile her eyes began. A poor life this if, full of care, We have no time to stand and stare.
Been there but luckily came out of the other side and haven’t looked back. Buried my demons and hope they never return. Hope you can do the same fella and @Safc83
I'll never come out the other side, it's the nature of the beast with my condition. Tired of waking up tired without the energy or enthusiasm to live through the day. Think I'm going back to bed in a bit, I'll have a joint to see if it makes me feel better first.
Ah mate sorry about that. Hope you find nd some semblance of happiness in whatever way you can. We may not see eye to eye on some things but I’ve always got time for you fella. Look after yourself
Ta fella. Only people I have a dislike for are people who've pushed and pushed me and people I've developed trust issues with, lot of people do get it in the neck cause of my condition though including yourself and I'm sorry to anyone who has felt the brunt of my bad moods. Sorry fella. I usually suffer in silence but 83s thread kind of made it relevant to say something. Supposed to be in Manchester this weekend, just can't face it if I feel like this. @Safc83 is a proper confidant, he knows what I'm going through and me with him, difference is 83 has extra on his plate at the moment(I shouldn't have a care in the world) so it's him who needs our thoughts most cause it's brutal enough without out the extra major problems life situations can throw up. 83, love ya dude, thinking of you.
Life is a roller-coaster ride that's for sure.. Just when things are looking up it has a habit of taking you down at a rapid rate... Always remember though that just when you reach rock bottom the climb up again is often just around the corner..
I wake up most days thinking I'm a bit of an embarrassment to my family. No one's immune to that sort of thing. You're a good bloke.
I hope everyone has a good day We ALL have days when we feel useless & wonder what on earth we are doing with our lives, but (and I know that it’s easy to say) there is always someone worse off! The fact that we have all woken up this morning is a bonus... have a coffee, a beer or a joint and get through it Remember... some people don’t have internet, tv, coffee, beer, food.....
I don't know 83' personally, but if any of the other guys on here do, might be a good idea to check up on him. He is obviously in a very dark place right now, my thoughts are with him, but if anyone knows him, go and see him, check on him, if it was my mate, I would in a heartbeat
Everyone gets their ups and downs, but if you have a mental health issue there's not a lot you can do about it. Had a few family and friends in that particular boat. Doesn't have to be depression; for some it was drink, for others gambling. The last thing anyone in that position needs is me telling them to keep their pecker up, but whenever I'm down I remember the old adage about an egg and a good **** (clue: you can beat an egg). Hope all in the pits ATM can see a bit of light at the end of the tunnel.
