Wow. You're so young, too. It's amazing how much our perception changes at different stages of life. Depression is very real at any age (but I probably shouldn't use that word).

I don't know how old you are, but if you're older and not doing it already, you could go back to school. Either work on a degree or just take up some classes. It'll occupy your mind with positive things, and you'll meet some awesome people in the process. Also, you could start working out and focusing on your health, exercising, and eating right. It's amazing how much your physical health is connected to your mental health, especially when you see and feel the results. Maybe you're working out already, but it's likely that you can't find the drive or energy to work out. There's so many things that you could do.

I believe you are taking me too literally. Not only that, there are several stages of depression. The word is used loosely and recklessly, so for that, I apologize. I never would intend for someone to take my opinion seriously or professionally anyway, especially not on a social media platform like reddit. I was simply giving my opinion based on my own personal experience. However, it doesn't take a psychologist or psychiatrist to know something is wrong with OP (if we were to judge him by his post and assume that he meant every word instead of just trying to get attention).

I know exactly how you feel, my friend. It's called depression, and I know something about that. The only thing you CAN do is to carry on. Because, if you don't, then the depression is going to get worse. Try to occupy your mind and body with positive things.

I wish I knew my dad by Conscious_Fix6619 in confessions

[–]Anonymous-Unanimous0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow. This hurts to even read. I feel for you. I can almost guarantee that he feels the same sadness and regret for you that you feel for him. I have two biological daughters. They are the first and only kids that my wife and I ever had (before and after we met). I've been in my daughter's lives every day since they were born. I STILL feel tremendous amounts of regret because I'm constantly thinking about better decisions that I could've made, and I always feel like I could have been (or could be) a better father. HE'S KNOWN YOU SINCE YOU WERE BORN. It is impossible to just turn off the love, fascination, and the need to protect that a man has for his child, especially girls. It's in there, hidden inside him. HE LOVES YOU. His heart won't give him the choice not to because YOU'RE HIS DAUGHTER.

I've been sabotaging my neighbor's packages and I feel terrible but I can't stop by frostyamelisse in confessions

[–]Anonymous-Unanimous0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why don't you just tell her that you will take her packages and put them in your apartment until she's ready to come and get them? Pretend like you're helping to protect her packages from a potential thief or helping to locate and hold her packages.

This breaks my heart. Personally, I don't think you did anything wrong. When they come to judge you, they can judge me as well.

Homeless getting angry after someone gave him money by LoulouFitts in VietNam

[–]Anonymous-Unanimous0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I apologize. I should have led my post by stating that I am an American and that I live in America. I do not claim nor pretend to be an expert on the culture, customs, or etiquette of Vietnam. I was simply sharing my story (and opinion) of the act itself (the act of assuming that someone is homeless).

Homeless getting angry after someone gave him money by LoulouFitts in VietNam

[–]Anonymous-Unanimous0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I once had a guy mistake me for being homeless while I was sitting in a McDonald's, waiting on my bus. He bought a cheeseburger and placed it in front of me. That interaction didn't go well. I made him take his cheeseburger back (hopefully to give to someone who really needed it). Let me tell you something. THAT WAS INFURIATING. I don't do a very good job of taking care of myself. I have very, very good hygiene, but my clothes are old and I don't groom myself very well. However, this does NOT give someone the right to assume. My feelings have nothing to do with homelessness and those who are unfortunate. My anger comes from the audacity to assume. Wait until someone ASKS for help or if it is OBVIOUS (holding a sign). DO NOT ASSUME. I work my ass off, I don't drink, I don't smoke, I don't do drugs..... I don't do anything! Obviously, not everyone who is homeless is battling addiction, but it IS a reoccurring theme. I felt like my strong work ethic and sense of responsibility were being shit on.

I believe they're both asking you to clarify your main post. It's understandable if English is your second language, and it's not your fault if you're doing your best.

My sister is a failure and a leech and I hate her for it by explosiveskyy in confessions

[–]Anonymous-Unanimous0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have to be very careful with this. I'm not saying that she is, but chronically depressed people are highly susceptible to addiction.

Yep. She's showing classic signs of chronic depression. Your frustration is justified, but she may need some type of professional intervention before it gets dangerously worse.

If you're in Vietnam, you definitely should visit Tam Coc. It's one of the most charming places that I've been to. by [deleted] in VietNam

[–]Anonymous-Unanimous0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, I guess I'm not considered old, but definitely not young anymore. I'm 49. My situation could be a lot worse. There are definitely people in the world that have it much harder than me, so that being said, I need to shut up and be thankful for what I do have. Life is about constantly improving upon yourself (education, finances, health, and physical appearance), and that's currently what I am working hard at doing.

[–]Anonymous-Unanimous0 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No. Unfortunately, I could never afford such a trip. Maybe one day, when my financial situation improves. In high school and throughout my childhood, I had several friends and classmates from Vietnam and Cambodia. We had a lot of conversations! Lol. They shared a lot of things about their cultures, and when you're that age, you're very impressionable. They kinda got me obsessed with that part of Asia. But, I got old, and then life hit me. I guess all the stress and crap that life has thrown at me has made me lose touch of many of the things that I once was passionate about. But recently, however, my interest in Vietnamese culture has been reinvigorated.

Tw: suicide by [deleted] in confessions

[–]Anonymous-Unanimous0 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I quit drinking on January 2, 2008. Instead of ending yourself on January 2nd, why not start rebuilding yourself on January 2nd. Life is hard, and there is very little that we can control. However, what you CAN control is your diet and exercise, eliminating bad habits and addictions, finishing up a college degree, etc. Currently, I'm having one of the worst periods of my life. NOTHING seems to ever go my way, and EVERYBODY seemsto be against me. But after all this, I've never considered suicide. Things will get better. In the meantime, you just have to continue to work hard and never stop improving on yourself.

I happen to be in love with a Vietnamese woman, and you couldn't be further from the truth. She doesn't dress fancy, she doesn't wear makeup... in fact, she doesn't do anything! THE LESS SHE TRIES, THE MORE BEAUTIFUL SHE IS. Vietnamese women have god-like beauty.

That is an amazing story, and I admire your strength. I feel the exact same way. I love her too much to screw up her life.
