MeatSalad
10.10.23 | It sucks, man. Going through much the same rn. Keep on fighting and seek help if you need it |
Deez
10.10.23 | Sorry to hear that mate, never really gone through so dont have any shit advice but as Meat said, go speak to someone. Youre a good egg mate, keep your head up x |
bellovddd
10.10.23 | sorry to hear that dude. i am much the same. i fall into a real deep sadness whenever i have to let my ex have my kids and i dont get to see them for days. i tend to smoke a lot of weed i find it calms me down and really makes me not think suicidal thoughts which i tend to but thats different for everyone and probably not the solution. Lifes pretty hard but you've got to make the most out of it if you can. you dont get another shot at this shit. |
Relinquished
10.10.23 | Find your balance bro. Life’s a ying:yang but you’re a Good Man.
Yup we have one shot at this life so watch what you eat, become active enough and workout enough to fortify where those old man back pains and arthritis shit hurts, get your sleep in and don’t overdo it, get your sun, do the basic stuff and change it up and that’ll hold you over when these eventual moods get to us. Fake it til you make it cuz we all truly do the same thing. |

10.10.23 | Normal’s overrated |
evilford
10.10.23 | Thanks all
@ belovddd that's exactly what happens to me! My kids come to my house fri-sun every week and it's great. Them they go back to their mom's for the week and I just feel like complete shit. Every fucking week |
Dedes
10.10.23 | I'm sorry to hear that my dude, I imagine the feelings only sink more deeply as you age. I'm sure as goddamn hell i'll find these situations recurring a lot more in time. For now I guess just zone in on whatever things you love and try to tune out the rest because by and large it's all gymnastics your mind will pull on itself. The world can truly be a simple place if you'll allow it. Makes things much easier to enjoy imo. |
Dedes
10.10.23 | Oh lol your comment just came in
Tbh I can't speak on that, ain't got kids but I definitely do want them in time. Maybe not now but once I get a little more financially stable for sure. |
Hawks
10.10.23 | Love u buddy. |
Trebor.

Wildcardbitchesss
10.10.23 | yeah, it gets really fucking old. ssris worked for a while but I slowly started to feel like a zombie. just felt nothing. idk some people thrive on them but they’re not for me.
you’re not alone buddy |
bellovddd
10.10.23 | @ford damn it's really hard. I get them sunday- tuesday and then every second saturday but i only really get to see them morning and nights cause i work. but at least i get to see them so that keeps me going. |

DominionMM1
10.10.23 | i’m sorry to hear that dude. all i can say is that i truly hope it gets better for you. |
MoM
10.10.23 | I hope you feel better, Ford! If you ever wanna talk, drop a shout |
JayEnder
10.10.23 | You're not alone ford, stay strong man. I'd wager a vast majority of people feel this way in today's world. Shit is genuinely terrifying out there. |
MyNameIsPencil
10.10.23 | remember you are loved my man, no one suffers alone |
Titan
10.10.23 | ford brother you're definitely not alone man, small sample of this thread proves it, myself included......life is really hard and the challenges will always be there.....when we defeat one, another is just waiting in the wing.....keep the body sharp (what Relinquished said) and focus on the things you enjoy when you don't have your kids.....throw the cans on and go for a walk, get out of the house, and whip those mind monsters when they start fucking with you
millions and millions of people feel the same way you do |
BlazinBlitzer
10.10.23 | I'm sorry it's been hard recently. I don't have much to add to all the wonderful advice that others have given. I've noticed with myself in recent years that at my lowest points, I'd try to "angry clean" or get productive with mundane stuff. For me, the mental reward of that progress eases things significantly. As others have said, there's no doubt that your presence is really appreciated here. |
artiswar
10.10.23 | I have severe bpd and a cornucopia of other mental issues, I'm absolutely fucked, in fact I almost blew my brains out randomly the other day. If you ever want to talk, I'm here. You're a good guy, I'm rooting for you |
Vercetti
10.10.23 | That sucks. I wish you the best |
mindleviticus
10.10.23 | know that feeling all too well bro, it'll be okay feel free to drop me a shout anytime |
VaruunZealot
10.10.23 | I'm sorry to hear that, and wish you all the best. My personal remedy is to remind myself that feeling low doesn't last forever, and that there will be periods of happiness interspersed. Head up and stay strong |

10.10.23 | Sorry to hear that Ford. You deserve to be kind to yourself, you're a great user :) |

10.10.23 | I always find for a revitalising burst of energy, reinvigorating a joie de vivre and reinstalling a sense of hope and joy then a quick listen to the uplifting John Lennon classic ‘My Mummys Dead’ hits the spot. |
SomeCallMeTim
10.10.23 | happens like that with me too, comes in waves and no way to tell when or for how long. hoping the best for you |
Spec
10.10.23 | I feel that. You’re a good dude though so try and remember that < 3 |
Trifolium
10.10.23 | ford that sucks so much. Sending over hugs, to be used when/if you need them. |
AmericanFlagAsh
10.10.23 | Comes in waves to me too, just created a list of songs I relate to |

Shemson
10.11.23 | Hey mate, I just turned 35 and for literally no reason just had a bit of a breakdown. There’s nothing wrong in my life at all but I was so low for a couple of weeks and just couldn’t break it. Not really sure I’m completely over it now tbh but it is what it is.
Just trying to say man that you’re definitely not alone |
evilford

10.20.23 | hope you're well buddy |
unclereich
10.20.23 | there is something about fall, with the every crunch of every dead leaf under foot, that simultaneously elicits gleeful nostalgia of childhood and the impending doom of aging realizing you are getting further away from when stepping on those leaves brought you joy. |
Dewinged
10.20.23 | Somehow missed this, hope you're feeling better already Ford, I'm sure we all go through these phases, some harder than others. Always open if u need to vent my man, keep it up! |
ffs
10.20.23 | takes a strong person to admit when they feel like this. you're a legend dude, u got this |
zakalwe
10.20.23 | You slags need to lay of the weed, porn, superficiality and fake stimuli which in this day and age is a near impossible task. |

10.20.23 | my whole neighbourhood stinks of skunk 24/7 and I live in the leafy burbs - whole of greater London self medicates and that trend only escalated ten fold through the pandemic |
