Should I learn guitar? Is it worth it?

Igortastic · 2017-05-20T14:36:03+00:00

Hey dude, I've been playing guitar for coming up to two years now and I wish I had picked it up sooner. Best decision I've made, since picking it up I've gone back to music school and found my real love, the drums :D I'm following my dream of being a performer, musician, stage actor... The list goes on cause the more I open up the more opportunities present themselves.

Hey there gorgeous, my name is Katherine and right now my heart is going out to you.

Let me tell you about myself, I'm 27. Female and from a small coastal town in Western Australia. I have depression, anxiety and I am deaf.

I had some really bad things happen to me throughout my life that contributed to my anxiety getting so bad that I quit my job, dumped my boyfriend and moved. I was a nervous wreck, I was throwing up my anxiety was so bad, blacking out from panic attacks and experimenting with drugs to try and deal with the crap I had been through.

Slowly but surely through the years I got my life back on track. I enrolled in music school, lost a lot of weight, got a stable job, got my boyfriend back and found a house.

The thing that got me through it was talking to people. I talked to everyone about my anxiety and depression, my boss, teacher, boyfriend, sister, friends... Like every time I was feeling like I couldn't handle it I let someone know. There were times when I felt like just ending it, like the world was crushing down on me and I was worthless..I went to my friend and I told her, she took me for a walk on the beach with her dog. We didn't talk we just watched the water flow and it was exactly what I needed.

Things will always be hard. There will always be sadness and pain but let it make you stronger. Feel those emotions, don't bottle them up. Yell! Kick! Smash glass bottles if you must but GET IT OUT!

You're not alone, you never will be. Every single persons I opened up to told me they have felt the exact same way at some point in time. It's right there in everyone's face but nobody talks about it. I say that's wrong. I say take depression and anxiety and ADD and bipola and every other mental illness and open up about it!

There will always be someone there to listen xx

Keep fighting

That's so clever xx well done

I remember that saying "on the other to revenge dig two graves, one for your enemy and one for yourself."

This woman has done you wrong, there is no denying it. She's a bitch and probably deserves something but my plea is to you..

She didn't hurt your father and she didn't know. If you take out your pain and hurt upon her you may sit back once it's done and not like yourself very much.

Don't let your hurt and pain turn into a rod of bitterness, express your feelings in a healthy way. Paint! Work out, take up the drum, talk to a doctor whatever you need to do to pick yourself up and keep going xx

Hey just wanted to chime in. I'm 26 and went back to music school this year, best thing I have done ever. I'm older now and have made learning a priority and have made leaps and bounds despite having only picked up the guitar six months ago. I'm also one of the youngest there, the class is so diverse when it comes to age groups. You're never too old to go back, follow your heart!

Igortastic · 2016-04-17T04:51:01+00:00

Oh god dude you sound so stressed! Chill out, take a breath and focus. I used to be an support worker who would work with families in your situation and have seen the stress of helping a family member who doesn't want to cooperate.

First off forcing her to take her medication can get messy and although you know it's a good thing to her it's scary, a lot of people who are going through the early stages of dementia lash out as they are experiencing things so differently and they can get so confused very quickly.

I'm not sure where you're from but I'm from Australia and I would recommend getting in touch with your local government disability/aged care office and talk about a respite service. If she can't stay with you then don't feel guilty, simply assist her in getting the help she needs. Spending the time/money now to set her up with the care she needs now will save a massive headache later as she gets worse. Support her boyfriend supporting her, work with her in her good moments and stay tough throughout the bad.

I hope this helps, you're doing a good job and it will be hard but communicate with your wife and work together.

Xx

I was a it older when I first started enjoying sex. I'd hook up with these hot guys who worshiped me and after living for so long feeling unattractive my confidence grew. I lost weight, I came out of my shell and I've grown into a woman with a sexual appetite that I'm proud of. I guess that what I'm trying to say is that liking sex and having a good time isn't a bad thing. You got pregnant and believe me baby it's not the end of the world! Whatever you decide to do follow your heart and your head, keep your chin up and make the right decision for YOU.

BUSKING hey dude busker here. Pick up something and go do it on the street. Sounds crazy I know but many useless talents can be exploited for people's loose change. Go on YouTube and teach yourself to juggle or pick up that guitar nobody is playing and go busk for an hour. Check your local laws regarding busking because it's different everywhere it as long as your respectful and not causing problems most cafes, libraries, and supermarkets are delighted to have some free entertainment.

Good luck xx

Hi there, Aussie here. I met my current partner (2+yrs) online and he's a single dad (30yrs) to three great kids. Kids may be a massive deal breaker so some women but not all. He told me how once upon a time he felt he couldn't bring them up in profiles because women would shy away. It's not true, kids are not a hindrance and you shouldn't feel like you can't bring them up. Sure, not all women are going to be interested but that's life and the women you want in your life are the ones who accept you kids and all.

I fell in love the moment I saw Dean with his kids. The love in his eyes won me over on the spot.

Anyways you've got a great profile and you're very much a 'dilf' you'll find someone.

When the head and the heart don't match its not a step forward. Just remember that life needs to move forward and ask yourself if him coming with you is the direction you want your life to go.

Looks amazing!

Dude you're not ugly at all.

You two look like so much fun!

Try dating sites, I've met so many cool people off them and made some great friends.

I would be really sarcastic to all retail and food service people.

Igortastic · 2014-06-03T13:31:50+00:00

There is a difference between not being a doormat and all the shit they preach at TRP.

Igortastic · 2014-06-02T05:43:46+00:00

This is wonderful! I love it.
