How Are You Feeling Right Now?

My visit with the psychiatrist went well. He seems rather honest and no-nonsense, and he seems to be the first one so far who’s paying attention. I’ve been on numerous medications that didn’t help, so prescribing yet another treatment with the same mechanism of action is hopeless. I’m still rather jaded and cynical, as I should be after having done this dance for so long, but he’s given me a shred of hope.

There's always hope. I can't say how long this is going to go on for you or if it will improve, but even if it doesn't, at the very least, there is always hope for acceptance, and the tools to bear it as it happens.
 
maybe they think you would consider them for substance not just looks. i have some really bad news. people said i was very handsome when i was young and dated so many girls ranging from not very good looking to gorgeous babes ( ended up marrying the not so good looking one and glad i did ) now i'm almost 68 and the looks are gone. enjoy your good looks now because some day poof they're gone.

I find it ridiculous when people say looks do not matter. Ofc they aren’t they only thing that matters but I can’t just date any guy who looks like a potato either.
And in the end I do not believe they are gone when you age, my mother is 60 and she is as beautiful as ever. She hasn’t gained one little bit of weight, so I don’t take it seriously when people say age causes you to gain weight. And she doesn’t have many wrinkles and she also uses Botox. Or per say, a dentist that works in the ground floor of my house, her blue eyes and slim body shine in such a way you know she was a freaking super model in her 20s.

How are you today?
I'm Ok today, but tired. My head was completely mashed last night, I had to go to bed at 10.30pm and stayed in bed until 9.30am today, though didn't sleep through. Felt a bit lightheaded so just did a couple of hours work today, then went to see some family, did some errands, then went to my running group to blow the cobwebs away. Going to rest for a couple of days now. Hope you are doing OK!
 
Like my life has been a waste of time and needs to end soon.
Sorry you feel like that. I sometimes think that life is pointless and my life is a waste, but I thought a lot about this and I suppose for me, it's about looking at the meaning of life in general. Is the meaning of life to have a meaningful life?, in that case, who is to say what is meaningful? I think that is down to you how to measure that. But own western culture try's to dictate that.

For me, I got caught up for years, in this, you need to have money, a family, a big house to have made it and be meaningful, I have realised that things don't work like that and you have people with all of that and are unhappy. I tend to look at meaningful, as experience, rather than material things now.

I'm sure from reading your posts you are a nice person and the times you have liked my messages I have found meaning in that, that being someone has listened to me - for that, thank you.
