What's getting you down at the moment?

[The_Healer]

I've got a cold.

WHAT THE HELL!?

I haven't had a cold for 2 years, I was starting to come under the impression that I was the Anti-AIDS.

 

[Vault101]

I read the comic "The sacrifice" from left 4 dead

Not only was a Idepressed after but I can't play the game now and I dont know how it all ends!

I cant afford a Chimera *sniffles*

The fact that I neither have the balls/spine and the motivation/drive to:

- Get my driver's license. I don't dare stepping in a car for the first time.
- Finally work for a better future. In other words; finally get a college degree. I just...don't dare to. I just think the risk is too big, I'll fail, more humiliation, my last chance gone, etc. The pressure is humongous.

Those things are pretty depressing.

And yes, my home's fine, thanks. Only issue at the moment is potential radiation.

Que?! I thought I heard all the nuclear powerplants were shut down and okay? Not the case then?

My idiot box told me one of the nuclear power plants was shutting down but there was an error and now the plant is still running but the coolent pumped into the uraniem has stopped working so the uraniem is gettting extreamly hot and they can't shut it down and they can't get the coolent to work. So they are venting extreamly leathle gas to cool it down but it can cause radiation but it's better than the whole thing exploding and killing every one in the area. They are bringing in coolent from some where and once it arives then it should all be fine. I don't know if it's true but thats what i heard.

I've probably had the worst week of my life.

Monday I attended my first funeral (my great uncle, he would have been 87 yesterday), which was possibly the most depressed I have ever been.

Tuesday I had one lecture in college in which I was given an essay (on top of my workload, it meant I had 2 essays, coursework and a test to revise for).

Wednesday I went to yet another funeral, this time for my favourite uncle. Held myself together throughout, then got outside to see my mum in tears which then set me off. I can no longer listen to the song 'Memories'; was the song that played as the curtains went around his coffin.

Thursday was the only good day in my week; got my AS Level resit result and my English A Level result. Law resit I had an A, but English I was one mark from a C. But, as it turns out, I can get a C overall when my coursework is done, so that isn't too bad.

Friday I had my Ancient History test, which I haven't been able to revise for due to grieving and the fact that I've been trying to get my English coursework finished. Told my lecturer about this, and he had no sympathy. He's a great guy, but I was surprised he didn't even care for the fact that I'd had 2 family members die which has pretty much put any revision to a halt. Test went dreadfully, felt a bit pissed off.

But today, I get to see my girlfriend who I haven't been able to see for a week, and I get to see my best friend tomorrow. Hopefully that should make up for my otherwise shitty week.

Myself as usual...

The situation in japan right now, I'm getting down both because it's truly shocking and for slightly selfish reasons.

I've had a trip planned for near a year now, and this happens with just under 2 months to go. But I guess that pails in comparison to anyone living in the north east of the country.

Memories of my ex have been haunting me lately.

Need to get this shit off my chest, so might as well dump it here.

Broke up with her around June because her attitude got to the point where I just couldn't stand it anymore. I had been fine for a few months, but then met up again around September. Talked for a few days and admitted I still had feelings for her. She kept dropping hints that she still loved me over the course of the next week, and eventually admitted she loved me.

Next day she says she loves someone else, a fucking player who doesn't give a shit about the women he "dates". Turns out that this dude used to be one of my best friends in the past. Needless to say, psychotic side of my mind breaks free and I literally go batshit insane for the next week or two. A loooot of suicidal and homicidal urges for a bit. Just wanted to cut the whore's heart out with a dull, rusty knife and fucking butcher it like she did mine.

I got over it for about a month, then the last week of December rolls around and I start to have dreams of her. It's gotten progressively worse. At first it was just past memories, something I could shrug off, but now the dreams are really, REALLY getting to me. Full blown dreams of what I wanted our lives to be like, what could have been mixed with what she did to me.

It just drives me nuts. I haven't had a good nights sleep for a while now and it's starting to show. I'm tired, irritable and my bipolar disorder is just straight fucking with me. I'm popping off at people for small, insignificant issues and hurting the ones I love.

No matter how much I try, her face is stuck in my mind and I am REALLY sick of feeling like this. This ***** is a fucking infection I just can't seem get rid of. A persistent fucking tumor on my heart that, when I think I've finally gotten rid of it, comes back and proceeds to fuck with me even more time and time again.

I feel a bit better now that I've got that load of crap off my chest, but Thor knows she's just going to pile it back on in a few hours.

I've got a cold.

WHAT THE HELL!?

I haven't had a cold for 2 years, I was starting to come under the impression that I was the Anti-AIDS.

Colds get the best of us, even I have the most recent strain to go around.

OT:

Spoiler

This pretty much sums up all my problems right now.

 

[Sojoez]

I'm sad because the job interview didn't go as expected.
Also the girl I really like is now in Costa Rica and wont come back till the end of the month. (On the bright side I know she likes me, so a date is settled! )

But the thing that saddens me the most is the fact that Japan might become a nuclear wasteland... Things aren't going good!

And... DAMN! That tsunami was scary! Nothing can stop such a massive flow of water.

Im doing a uni assignment that is really not what I want to do!

Que?! I thought I heard all the nuclear powerplants were shut down and okay? Not the case then?

Sorta. One was having cooldown issues. No power for it, and the backup generators were gone too. Earlier today? One of the reactors went through a "small" explosion, though considering it took the walls and roof off while very neatly leaving only the framework, I'm beginning to doubt the claims about its size. There's white smoke coming out, a few people injured, and no one quite knows what happened. There's a very good chance that it's leaking radiation, though.

Snip

That's tricky to answer, really. Not THAT close to the NPP, but on the other hand, this is a radiation leak we're talking about. Travels far. Basically, I could be living a good deal closer to it, but my town's already close enough to potentially be affected.

James Cameron was given the production rights to the "At the Mountains of Madness" movie. The reason? Because it didn't have a happy ending or love story. If you think I'm joking, I'm not. So instead of it ending with certain ultimate destruction at the hands (tentacles?) of indescribable beasts. It may change a little so that it ends with Adrian Brody and Keira Knightley flying away in an airplane as the carcass of the shoggoth they took down with their revolvers sinks into the ground with the rest of the camp.
Note how I said "Indescribable". That's what made the story frightening! It let the reader fill in the blanks with their own fears. Giving such a story to Mr. Cameron, who is known for his wonderful special effects. Even if we said "Make them as vague as possible, Mr. Cameron.", that would be like telling a man with no eyelids to pretend he's blind. He can try, but it's not going to work (probably a stupid inference but oh well.)
Meanwhile, Lovecraft is rolling in his grave.
Also, that stuff in Japan is scary. All those poor people.

I'm feeling lonely, I look across the bed and I see an empty spot...

 

[superbatranger]

Well, I'm remembering that I broke down crying yesterday for the third time this week because of the sheer stress and panic brought on by this depression I've been struggling with. It just feels bad.

 

[killcheese]

a headache, but i just took something in my medical cabinet labeled headache relief, so probably not for long.

 

[Rinji]

Wow, some of you go through a real shitty period of time, I hope it all works out good for you guys and gals.

What gets me down is the fact that I've been studying for one week non stop now and I'm still not sure whether I'm capable of doing good in my final exams.

 

[Bloodstain]

The girl I love loves another, I haven't slept well in months and I'm sick at the moment.

Oh yeah, and my OCD, but to me it has become so common that I even forgot to mention it. -sighs-

I have a guy who pretty much stalks me. He who won't leave me the fuck alone, keeps calling and texting and I feel like a hunted animal. I hate it.
