Fed up of Life

Hai Sythers I wouldn't say I was on the edge by this I mean suicidal but life is not great at the moment and for the last few years I have been suffering from Generalized Anxiety Disorder and Social Phobia which ties in with G.A.D really. Just seems the smallest of things makes me annoyed and upset and I feel trapped in my house at times.. Nice forums like this ( pardon the punt ) and games like 'Rs' have kept me occupied and take my mind off things so the point of this thread is to ask others if they are having problems and how they deal with them? I would just like to add i'm not a fat ugly small nerd with no hope in life although that sounds mean if someone here is that size and shape - but I do like a laugh and love to talk to people I just dont have enough opportunities to do so.

 

Try going for walks or jogs, just to get out of the house, I feel like this sometimes. Staring at the computer screen while on rs or sythe won't help you. Get out and get some new scenary

Make a thread here: http://sythe.org/forumdisplay.php?f=527, you're more likely to get help here.

Edit: or just ask a mod to move this.

 

Try smoking weed, works for me.

 

OK thanks wasn't aware there was a place to post a thread on this subject. Deep down I know sitting at the computer doesn't help but i'm not on all the time it just helps me forget life while I am on if you see what I mean.

If a mod reads this just move to the suggested section.

 

quoted for truth.

I was on 4 Klonopins a day from my psychiatrist and it did absolutely nothing for my anxiety, but weed does.

 

I was always under the impression weed makes you even more paranoid and I wouldn't dream of smoking cigarettes nevermind weed.

 

People who mention drugs aren't here to help you. I don't mind people who use drugs but advising others to use drugs is stupid.

Really though Cupraka just try going for a walk and see if it helps, if it doesn't contact a friend and try and occupy yourself with him/her.

 

get a dog haha

 

Got 2 and they take me for walks most of the time.

 

Why not go to the local library or something and try socialize there? or school?

 

i used to be 5ft 8 and 210 lbs. i am now 6ft 1 and 180 pounds + i get laid at least 3 times a week. What i am trying to say is working out and lifting weights releases endorphins, which pretty much to say the least make you feel happy with yourself. If your looking to do something to get your mind off it then i highly suggest grabbing your ipod and working out a couple times a week. This also gives you opportunities to meet new people, especially girls.

 

Do you have something you like doing? For example: Soccer, basketball, or lacrosse? If you have something you like doing, join a club or something like that. Meet people who have the same interests like you do, then you could try being their friends. Take small steps at a time, I don't think rushing it would be a good idea. I really hope this helps man.

Next time, post in this you're more likely to get better advice there.

 

Haha...+i get laid 3 times a week.
try uploading your feeling on a video, then post it on youtube.

 

On a serious note, I've been studying psychology for years and am in an internship right now, if you'd like to discuss any problems you have with your disorders or anything at all PM me and we'll talk through a messenger or any other means of communication. I know you are struggling but suicide is not the answer as I'm sure many others have told you. Despite what has been said smoking weed will only hurt your case and actually raises anxiety levels. Social phobia is very, very common so don't feel all too bad. Social phobias can be cured with the right medication so I suggest seeing a doctor as soon as possible. You probably have high depression rates so they will most likely give you lexapro but you should ask about paroxetine for it helps social phobia.
