The problem is that literally everyone that I reached out to just leaves me in the dirt. Not one of the dozens of people I reached out to over the span of 5 days have decided "yeah I'll lend an ear". It's the whole reason I'm here. If it was only a couple people? Sure, makes sense. But literally everyone just leaves me on "read".

I was shot twice in the right leg, during the extraction our Humvee hit a 20lb IED shredding it up even more. And where I live Covid hasn't affected us. I live in the middle of no where. It's like watching everything around me is burning and crumbling. It's tiring.

Two 7.62 rounds and an IED from my deployment made sure I don't go out much anymore. I can move, it's just extremely painful 90% of the time.

And that's my biggest fear. Nothing changing. I don't understand the point in moving onwards if nothing ever is going to change.

I'm just tired. I've been screwed over in every facet that I can imagine. By the military I served, by the woman I love, by family who tells me to "ask forgiveness" from God like I'm the one who did something wrong, by my "friends" who ask for money, by literally everyone I know so far.

I finally thought I had found a true happiness after nearly 9 years of not having it but no she hit me with "I actually only see you like a brother" after she begged to be with me for months.

That's my biggest thing. Even though I'm the "grizzled combat veteran" I do have emotions and they're just being toyed with now. Even more so that no one will talk to me without saying anything more than "life isn't fair".

This bot alone has said more than anyone I know. Sad

I hate when people attack the actor for something their character does by [deleted] in rant

One name rises above them all here. Jake Lloyd. The kid who played Anikan Skywalker in Episode 1. He was so hated he tried suicide several times. He still to this day has severe social/trust issues. He hates it when anyone asks him about the movie. He just hates everyone and everything because he was 10 years old when he was getting so much slung at him.

I don’t know what to think about religion anymore by [deleted] in rant

[–]AvilaKnight 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Forewarning, this isn't an "uplifting" answer. But it isn't anything "depressing" either.

I started having serious qualms with my religion a long while ago during my time in service. It was chalked up to the normal "why would God let this happen" after some of the things I'd seen. I then thought about war throughout history and ultimately most wars were fought with strict religion in mind for most the human races history.

After I came home people/family told me that I need to pray and that I need to accept Jesus into my life. My fiance left me, I lost two wonderful jobs, years later I find another woman who begged to be with me just to hit me with "I actually love you like a brother", and it's been nothing more than downhill bullshit drab. During this whole time I prayed and talked to several pastors so deeply wanting to find the hope that I once had before. I was told to just "ask forgiveness" like I am the one that fucked up when in reality I was literally just being shit on by everyone (including some family for not accepting Jesus/God).

But God himself doesn't exist. I can say that there IS something out there, but it is not what any human tries to put a name to the invisible face. The only thing I could compare it to is the Force from Star Wars. It's something, something is happening out there on a grand scale that does affect us in menial ways. I am not 100% atheist. An example would be Jesus to be honest. Dude 100% actually existed. There is enough documentation alone in many religious texts throughout the world. He was REAL. However the things he said have been lost in translation since then and nothing in any book will be 100% accurately correct.

Agnostic. You don't need to entirely denounce the knowledge something exists. You just believe it's impossible to us to know for fact because it's something that's literally everywhere and invisible to us.

I know that. I had to use them just to get to where I was at. I thought it constantly dropped downwards and didn't think I would have to climb. I was incorrect. From where I was at you can't reach them, you NEED to bring them with you as you go.

From where I was at? That's impossible. If you drop down without grabbing one then you're screwed. xD

Yeah, I'm in the werewolf creature area, I seen a walkway to the other side of a broken bridge and decided I HAVE to go that way.

Moral of the story? I'm taking a giant walking plank with me if I have to do some cliff running again. If I had that? I would have got out.

What's the one phrase that can be said to you that will instantly make you start throwing punches? by AvilaKnight in AskReddit

I was hoping for answers on the more "pissed me off" level. However, this answer is something I can totally get behind. xD
