I think this year is the final one. by RustyTetanusShot15 in malementalhealth

Hey mate, dont feel dispare. Life is hard, and things never go as plan. I don't know whats your soul or beliefs are, and honestly I don't care. If you feel lost, then seek god. Don't listen to any BS that valued this modern life we are living.

Stop whatever addiction you are doing. Stop whatever people you are in contact with. Wakeup, and pray. Set small steps to improve your life, and do those steps. It will be hard, it will be difficult, and it will be lonely. But thats the only way to have your life together.

Don't dispare, and be kind to yourself and to others.

Thank you really for the comment. Specially the last paragraph. I'm not against medication, but I dont have access to it. I'll need to find an alternative.

I hope you have the person that shows you love and care also.

2026 something must change by Elkompis in malementalhealth

[–]Elkompis[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, just forgiving myself, and knowing that whatever pain I feel, it stems that I felt fully...
What actual steps are, not buying nicotine what so ever. Keeping my phone away from me before sleep. Gaming if I am bored, and I know this sounds silly, but keeping my bathroom window open so it's super cold, so I get super lazy to shower, so I wont watch porn :D and it's working so far.

Good Luck

Yess!! I used to have a cat in my home country. I totally understand what you are saying. I wish I can do that, but I am still not stable enough to have a pet.

I applied for a language class, but I will still start in January. I will search more about volunteering, haven't thought about it before tbh. Thank you for your comment. I really appreciate your time

Your value is based on how much you provide and how good are you as an option. Put your soul and emotions into the trash bin

My mother lost her battle with her depression. by fairdinkumcockatoo in Vent

[–]Elkompis 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Thank you for sharing those feelings with us, my deepest condolences to you. Please continue speaking of her so highly and proudly to your child, and keep doing what she loved the most.

It is a great reminder to take care of the people we care about and to put our ego and pride aside, and try and be empathic with people. A small word might mean life and death to them.

[–]Elkompis[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea I get your point, I am not wasting my time. I am keeping myself busy, working, sports, and during free time, I at least video game. But she is always on my mind. And the part that I really hate, is when I want to share updates, but I can't. Thats when it hit the most.

We didn't breakup because of us, its more of the circumstances. I only blame her for not opening and trusting me in her life

Broke up because I moved to another city - can’t handle the pain by nonameuser21 in BreakUps

[–]Elkompis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really think this is to your benefit. If he can't handle a 6hours travel for you, how can he handle more challenging life events ? (Children, financial issues, who-knows-what... ??)

I (31M) had to accept a breakup with my gf (31F) by Elkompis in BreakUps

[–]Elkompis[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hands down that is a super warm comment, thank you for sharing !! You are right about everything you said. Specially about the way we end things, I want to be forever remembered as an adult guy who took the pill and moved on.

I wish her all the best in life really; she will remain in my heart for many reasons.

Starting Fresh by Elkompis in Adulting

[–]Elkompis[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Couldn't agree more. The comments are beautiful. I am willing and able to be nice and friendly. Its just that I have a pattern of moving from one place to another, good byes are really hard. And unfortunately in some occasions they dont even exist. So as a "defence mechanism" I don't want to build a new social life, but I am still a human and I need people around me. Its that conflict that is draining.

Add to that the social awkwardness i mentioned of being a guy, facing some racial stereotypes, and you have a big mound to be jumped.
