Ever felt like life ain't shyt and...

[Sister Mary Clarence]

Ya'll really need to find something non drug related to elevate your mind. Find something you can create breh. I write music myself. Think of something you know in and out and create something from it. I don't care if it's a piece of stone cold shyt, you make it and love it. It's yours. And it will elevate your fukking spirits. We humans really aren't hard to satisfy but we don't bother half the time. We love to create and be artistic as a human race. Hell, that's the whole story of our industrial and technological revolutions. But a downside of having so much technology is that it makes us lazy in regards to creation.

Now this isn't a knock at drugs as I think we should legalize asap. But there should be something you are talented at sober that you can use to relieve some stress. If there isn't, use the damn internet to educate yourself on something. There is way too much depression creeping up in this thread.

Agreed 100%. We (you) need to create. What do you like do? Write, draw, paint, build? Do it. Do it every single day. Even if it sucks, even if you never show anyone, even if it ends up in a box under your bed. Do it. Humans are a creative species and when we don't do that, we suffer for it.

When you fully embrace the power that you have as a human being to use this moment to make something that did not exist in the moment before, you will feel a shift in your mood.

Another thing I do (have struggled with depression for many years) is make a list of things I enjoy, or nice things I can do for myself. Try to keep it simple- like,

Make a cup of tea.
Listen to a great jazz album.
Stretch for 15 minutes.
Meditate for 10 minutes.
Read a good story.
Go for a walk through my neighborhood.
Make a new song.

When you're feeling extra depressed, go through your list and do something on it. Just the act of doing something nice for yourself can lift your mood.

It sucks that one has to work at just being normal, and I have been pissed about this for some time. But it is what it is. Others can offer all of the advice in the world but when it comes down to it, it's your fight. Believe that you deserve to at least give yourself a shot at happiness and go for it.

I really hope you feel better.

White man living comfortably and care free out here, while the hispanic man breaks his back doing hard labor, and the black man gets the short end of the stick in every facet.

thats the system.....but he even treats his own ppl bad....basically is : 1% of whites are elite and rule the world : u have the upper class whites that are basically rich but no total control, then u have middle class whites, that are naive slaves and dont know it...theyre docile and work 9 to 5 and come home and watch tv all night, then u have poor whites, who get shytted on, but with luck, a nice suit and shave they can change their life around over nice


everybody else is @ the bottom looking up to get in

 

[DrX]

being black especially difficult...this whole society is set up to destroy...everything leads too ur demise and if u r discipline and avoid it...the whiteman still gonna fukk with u until u snap....u got dudes that did everything right...went to school, "speak properly" , clean cut and they actually get punished because out of jealousy


u cant win really .....

all life is, is a big cruel practical joke....

KEEP. BUSY.

That's it. There's nothing else to fix it.

If you keep busy enough, eventually you have mentally built up time to relax without thinking about death and the pointless reality we're cursed with.

I suffer from A LOT of bullshyt. It took me awhile to figure it out. Keep busy with whatever you like, so long as you're not hurting anybody.

I have felt that way before. It usually happens when I get depressed though. Whenever i feel that way, i do things that make me happy. No, it doesn't cure it. But it helps.

And be around people that makes you happy.

Feeling like this pretty much means you let things get too far, lets bring it back fam.

T be honest, growing up Black has actually prepared me for hardships. Once I accepted who I was and was able to battle through not becoming just another statistic, I know there isn't much of getting in my way anymore in terms of how I live and what I want for my future. Of course there is the obligatory situation of a cop pulling me over and shooting me dead while saying, "drop the gun".

 

[Audemar]

its not life, its this system....this system made life empty, its about self gratification and desiring things that u dont have

thats what america is....a carrot on a string ....were all chasing something that dont exist

Facts. For once, you said something that's real

 

[Incogno]

there's a saying..."the simple things in life are the most important"

i think to truly appreciate life you must have humility

because if you think about it..status doesn't matter...true fellowship does.... relationships based on superficiality don't matter...true love does


if all you see in life is superficiality....you aren't going to appreciate it

that song by passenger "let her go"...talks about this

we take the simple things for granted...when they are the most important...we can't see the importance though...because we are too preoccupied with the superficial

so the superficial becomes important..when it's really not...

 

[Behind-the-wheel]

death is the only escape?

Like society is fukked, your life is fukked, and its not worth the daily struggle anymore?

And if you ever felt like this how do you feel about life now? Or do you still feel the same?

I feel this way every day.
It's the same crap every day...day after day...week after week...month after month.
The only change in it is when I mess up and piss off the wife and get into an argument.
So it's either soul-sucking boredom...or heartache...with a slight chance of fun/entertainment.
Knowing that those are the main experiences I'll have for the rest of my life make me want to eat a bullet.
I try to have good times, but when you're on lock-down, your options are limited...and few.
