Shout out to op for the thread. We need more dialogue like this for brothers.

I think conversations like these help lessen the burden of life as you don't feel alone in your experiences.

I've been most disappointed in life through my family and realizing how their actions created obstacles for me to have to overcome in addition to the ones life already hands out. I'm learning that healing isn't linear nor does it have a timeline. Healing brehs is all about managing. Day by day. Moment by moment.

Anybody into stoic journaling?

Not really difficult, it’s just that I’m depressed so hard to see/think positively at times. Then it effects relationships with others.

Brehette exercise a bit and find a hobby. Go hang out with somebody. You got it brehette

 

[BaldingSoHard]

Life isn’t really hard. Especially in a country like the USA. I have drinkable water coming out of my pipes and food in my fridge. The rest is easy

Refrigeration
Indoor plumbing
Central HVAC

The trifecta of modern convenience...

Here? Materially easy.

People just go out of their way to complicate things.

 

[MR. SNIFLES]

LIFE IS EASY. PEOPLE ARE HARD.

Thank you, I do all that and pretty regularly. I just understand there is no cure for depression though, so some days will always be better than others. Something I have to deal with unless i opt for medication that turns you in a daily zombie. Life is life.

10 year drought.

Honestly don't see the point anymore.

The main reason why I can't believe in god.

And before anyone asks: Yes I approach women. Yes, I am well groomed and can dress. Yes, I am in shape. Yes, I am funny. Yes, I can have good conversations with women.

As u get older it does

For me I’m working 40 hrs a week,, I’m taking care of my elderly parents from fixing things around they house, getting they medication, taking my dad to his lung cancer chemotherapy and add the fact I have my own family to take care of

I’m literally burning out

I’m taking off tomorrow just to relax my body and mind

America pushes alcohol too much. It makes existing situations worst when you thing you’re escaping it . What it breeds is difficult

this
American advertising makes drinking booze fun and sexy, bur it leads to depression, anger, self pity

You never thought about tricking
a ten year drought is too damn long

Listening to the struggle and resolve of others really does put what you have going on into perspective. Like another poster said, as black men I think this type of dialogue is important because as we've long understood from boyhood, the world could give af about us

But hearing about your resolve and strength damn near brings a tear to my eye brehs. For real. Hearing how no matter how dark it gets for you, but there's some force telling y'all not to quit is everything for me.

Lastly, whatever you are grimacing over is valid. Don't let anyone tell you what you're going through is menial compared to what others are going through. Pain and struggle is not comparative. It's all valid and it's all relative. Stay strong brehs. I love us (obligatory )

I’m doing well but it’s hard.
