Not in, but this too shall pass.

Not in, but I wanna give you an advide: go on.

I've passed maybe the worst 2 years of my life: my father had a cancer, my mom isn't well, and I had a trasplant surgery on my right eye. At the moment I've no work because here in Italy there are a LOT of problem, and we have financial issues too on the family.

But...the life can grant you nice and good moments. With luck my father recovered and, at least for now, God continues helping us.
My mother is not bad too, and slowly I'm recovering too.
I hope to find a work soon, but don't give up.
Even when it seems there's no way around, keep hoping, because something better can happen.And it will happen.

Don't give up and smile.

Really sorry to hear that.:(
But as Stooner says it will pass.

Not in, but have an ice cream of think of your Dad, or someone close to you, that's what I always do:)
( It has to be a cone that you eat slowly)

I'm having some semi-shitty period myself but I'm going to hang in there and I advise you do the same.

Not in, since one really nice gentleman from Spain gifted it to me recently, but +1 to you for giving away an awesome game.

I'm in.

As the guys said. This shall pass just stay strong.

My high school years wasn't the greatest years of my life. But sometimes letting it all go by going to a good friend, blasting cheesy pop 90s music and doing crazy stuff like dancing and laughing like maniac help. I'm a guy btw.

Of course you need friend(s) who's in for this silly activity. Age isn't a problem. You can just let go even when you're an old guy wanting to relieve his stress.

Also join a community. Any community as long it's not crime and you enjoy the activity.

Funny how you going to give SS2 for the giveaway since the game was about angry AI killing everyone heheh.

In.

Oh hey, a music that probably fit for it!

Sorry to hear your so down. 2 weeks ago I had the worst day of my life. No need to go into detail as it was very personal.

To help me out of my funk, I got my daughters and their close friends, all of them Girlscouts that have been friends with my children since 1st grade, and took them all out for pizza and a movie, Despicable Me 2. Just having all those happy kids around (ages 12 - 16) thanking me and being kids helped me greatly. No, it didn't undo all the FUNK, but it kept me going none the less.

Hope you find something to help you out.

Im in.

Meet people or just go out, don't stay at home! If you don't like to see people you know, meet new ones. People are everywhere, you just have to give yourself a little kick and go or do something new.

In for RedRagan.

I'm in for Litharian

As for life issues, just a few months ago I was borderline clinically depressed, I didn't want to eat, sleep or do anything. In the end friends were the answer, just meeting new people could be online or in real life, but what matters is finding people you care for :\

Be strong, and go through it!

i am not in, but want to give hope:
i felt i was in my lowest point of life ... maybe last year, cant pinpoint the date
i am longtime unemployed, because of my social phobia
i lost very important friends because someone spread false rumors about me (i am looking at you parvatisocke ) and i didnt even know what happened, there must be so much wrong stuff that i not even today know that went on there, all i know is that that person wanted to destroy me because that is what she likes to do and because lies is all she can communicate with
anyway, there i was, i felt betrayed, and alone, people that i thought where friends didnt have any courage to do what was right and pretended that what happened never happened despite knowing what kind of person she is

today i look back, and there was no easy way, if you lose stuff, you have to be sad, you have to work through that, if you where betrayed, you have to be angry and have to work through that too
if you feel like there is nothing there, like its all empty, and that is all there is, but time will go on and there will be a time where someone asks for hope, and all you can do is tell him that in the past you needed hope too, and explain to that person that there always is hope, that things change, sometimes only the perspective is what changes, sometimes life changes, sometimes little things change that mean everything

but there is always hope

its tough to find words for someone who needs hope, when you know that simple words may be spoken, but when you really need hope you also need the strength to hear those words

i dont know whats going on in your life, maybe a therapy helps, therapy doesnt mean you are crazy, therapy just means you need someone to talk to like every week or two

What i can do, is telling you i was sad and angry and empty a year ago, i felt like nothing could help me, i had all kinds of bad feelings, and today i am looking forward, i am happy because i know that good stuff happens to me in the next few months (has to do with work) and i am happy because at the weekend a friend will come over, and i am happy because i am reading a good book these days

what you can do is: believe me and believe everybody else in this thread, and keep on living, nobody can make go away what happened to you, nobody can make your feelings go away, but keep on, keep on and one day it will still be part of your life, but it will part of your past, one day you will be happy again

Not in, but wanted to say thanks for your generosity.

When I'm feeling down I find it helpful to be outside, like going for a walk or run. Reading helps, too. And of course talking to people and getting some stress out of my system.

Don't lose hope and try to stay optimistic. That will help you deal with whatever is going on.

Best wishes!

In, thank you for the giveaway!

This probably seems stupid at the time being, but time DOES make things easier to remember. If people give you a hard time for whatever you're going through, it might be a fine time to cut those people out of your life, permamently.

Good luck, and keep your head high!

Don't grumble about the past. Go out into the world, you must have some IRL friends to get a beer with. Be open to new friendships and in time everything will be better.
In for RedRagan!
