Poll: Are you happy with your life, Escapist?

[Midnight Crossroads]

No. I need to get to a better place than I am now. Although I'm worried that doing that will tie me down in a position I don't want to be in. There are commitments I've made that will hold me for years, and I count down those years. I may be 30 before I can make my own decisions.

 

[Andy of Comix Inc]

I suffer from clinical depression.

I'd say "obviously not," even though I have been happy before while being depressed... but right now... no. "Things suck" is an understatement.

 

[Tsuki Akechi]

my life is epicness, 'nuff said...

 

[Extasii]

Let's see...
Dumped by girlfriend, whom I forgave for cheating on me and now she thinks I'm a loser
Loans didn't process for college, got kicked out, now I owe 7.5 Grand
Working a job that leaves me exhausted every night for minimum wage

Blech...
All i got now is my laptop, my DS, and Minecraft/Pokemon/Starcraft

 

[etherlance]

Nope things are pretty bad what with my suicidal tendencies, but thanks for making me realise this with this thread

*Walks away from laptop*.......................BANG!




........*THUD!*

 

[Dorian]

Cut down the couple hundred miles between my boyfriend and I and see how things are from there.

As of now, nope.

 

[smearyllama]

Yeah, man! Thanks for asking!

Besides a little bit of trouble with schoolwork, I'm actually doing pretty well.

I should probably get out a little more, since I've been playing so much Morrowind lately.

I've been reading a great book, True Grit, and it's getting right up to the good part.

Edit: And I got this sweet new avatar, too!

Don't worry, folks. Dale will return someday. He's just off on a little "vacation".

 

[Marter]

I have reasons to be unhappy, and reasons to be happy. The former is currently where my attitude rests.

 

[Plurralbles]

well, no. Of course not.

My options for getting a summer job have dwindled... My grades don't support the possibility of getting an internship and i'm too late for applying for any. My girlfriend.. well... at least I have one? My mom could lose her job at any moment because of this state's stupid budget... This quarter is going to be really difficult... My car is broken. I have a minimum wage job at school... I don't impress anyone. And I have no idea what my future holds..

 

[Mr.Mattress]

Could be better, but overall good.
My laptop I got from 2007 died on me this month, my Mic from the same time died yesterday, I'm barely passing French and Pre-Calculus, and I still don't have a drivers license or job.

But hey, I have a great life: I still have a Computer and Mic to do things, I am passing those classes, and I eventually will get those 2 things.

So it's all good.

 

[Ladette]

My life is just awesome right now. I got a decent paying job that I don't hate, the love of a good(and good looking) woman, a bitchin' car, and a nice house. I'm actually worried, if i'm on top of the world the only place to go is down......Or I could go even higher! A positive attitude is the key to happiness.

*looks at other replies*......Ohhhh....sorry....

 

[Outright Villainy]

Right now, couldn't be happier.

Ask me again in two months after my exams, and you may find a significantly different response.

 

[xsosxfelix]

my life kinda sucks right now cause im in afghanistan fixing poor little kids who got blown up by their own daddies ied's while playing outside.
this shit is sickening

To everyone claiming their life to suck: be glad you don't live in western Japan.

It's good to keep things in perspective. Sure, your life might suck to you, but a lot of people in this world have suffered the kind of suck you cannot even imagine.

Also my life is great. I have a girlfriend whom I love, an education that I love, friends, all of my limbs, a house to live in, food to eat, and no terminal disease.

Y'see, that's the kind of suck I'm talking about. None of that "bawww i have no girlfriend nobody wuvs me" shit. Actual fucking sickening situations. BUT you are fixing the kids! You are doing a great thing, never forget that! You are combating world suck!

 

[Cheery Lunatic]

Once I get outta the house and this crummy high school I'm going to (why is everyone here SUCH overachievers, goddammit) I think things will start to look up.

As of right now, it's okay though.

 

[b1u3too]

A little bit of a rough patch with the boyfriend, but things are improving nicely, so I can say that I'm more than happy.

 

[Not-here-anymore]

Things are pretty good, bordering on great.
I'm not depressed any more, so life seems awesome, I've got loads of good friends, and I seem to be on the verge of acquiring a girlfriend.
Though naturally the second I started dating this girl, my best friend decides to reveal she has feelings for me... Life would be less interesting if it weren't complicated!

 

[Outright Villainy]

Oh yes. Ecstatic.
Things are fucking copacetic. Sometimes I weep from my every orifice out of pure joy.

Hey Mr. Grumpy Gills...

 

[Dogstile]

To everyone claiming their life to suck: be glad you don't live in western Japan.

I hate this perspective. It tends to get used to tell people who's lives do suck that they have no right to feel like things could be better

"Got dumped? least you're not japanese!"

"got kicked out? Shame, least your not japanese"

"Lost a pet? STFU dude, a least you're not japanese!"

OT:

My lifes pretty great. I'm single again, chilling out, maxin', relaxing all cool. Its rather awesome.

 

[Daedalus1942]

Definately not.
Nothing currently is going right in my life and I seriously think sometimes it would be better if I just ceased to exist instead.
If i have to go one more year without achieving my goal and getting fucked around by more medical professionals... I'm going to kill myself.
