How can i save myself from this life of work and sleep?

me Asked by ofchud21 over 2 years ago, 4 answers.

Wver since i graduated high school in 2005 my life has become a downward spiral. I work mon-fri, then go home and sit . I lost most of my friends to drugs , and the rest to i dont even know .it feels like everybody has something against me . I still live...

home with my parents being the slave of the family or i get the boot. My room is in the basement, so i get home from work and just sit down in my room for hours on end just sitting there letting thoughts build up and depression set it. My last girlfriend of 5 years cheated on me, and now i have 0 luck finding any sort of comfort anywhere. i feel like I'm living to work and sleep. What can i possibly do to save myself from this prison inside?

It sounds like you need to go out and find some better friends. I lost A LOT of friends to drugs. I used to smoke weed with them and we would hang out all the time. I quit smoking it in October, and ever since then they won't hang out with me or call me. I realized that I need better friends, ones who care about me as a person and who will be there for me no matter what. Depending on where you work (if there's any people that would be cool to hang out with), you could ask them to hang out. I live by myself, and it gets lonely especially now that my bf broke up with me. I try to go out and hang out with the few friends that I do have. Finding something that interests you is also a good way to escape the boring daily grind. I enjoy going to concerts, taking walks, playing with my pets, playing pool...anything that keeps me busy. I wish you luck and I think you should try to make friends (good people) and get out of your house more. Whatever you do, don't take the path that your old friends took. happy

Get your own apartment and maybe a room mate or two and start living your own life. You are living in your parent's basement and sitting on your ass. No wonder your girl dumped you. Not to be rude, but let's look at the man in the mirror here. You're acting like a child. Time to be a man and grow up!

Dude: wellbutrine. For the last three years, this medication helped me detach my thought from emotions, allowing me to logically analyize my current issues without being in a full slump depression. I have battled depression since I was 8, and at 15 I expressed interest in medication. At 18, I attempted effxor, but to no avail. Not until 2003, turning 23, that I finally made the doctors appointment, and go on wellbutrine. A good friend was on it, and considering our lives were in a shambled state, I took her recommendation.

Wellbutrine hasn't saved my life, but it has assisted me in detaching myself life's BS that SOO doesn't matter (parasitic friends, recreational drug abuse, depression). Unless I find out it is destroying my health, I beleive I will be on Wellbutrine for the rest of my life: and I am okay with that.

Talk to a therapist, tell them honestly what you are dealing with and going through, and be open to the idea of medication. If you are currently on medication and are still having depressive emotions and thoughts, talk to you doctor.
