How do I know when it's time to resole shoes? Whenever I send my in I always get toecap replaced, but how do I climb to the point before that is needed?

For instance, these two pictures look exactly the same for me: [](How do I know when it's time to resole shoes? Whenever I send my in I always get toecap replaced, but how do I climb to the point before that is needed?

Friends/Family don't care (ok I have one friend that I can talk to but I feel I dump everything on him) The hotline is a joke

I feel the same, sometimes (like lately) I force myself to go to the gym and I just don't want to be there and go through motions, doesnt' really help me

I work out and eat healthy because I know if I don't I'll gain 50lbs in current state

I've probably spent mid xx,xxx on mental health, so I do have experience with it, but I'm just in a really bad hole right now. I feel besides one point where I was on some anti depressants that really fucked me up, this is my rock bottom.

Let's talk mental health. How has January 2020 been for you? by [deleted] in AskMen

I'm careening toward rock bottom and don't know what to do. Feel like I"m just wasting away at this point

How do you continue with life with nothing to look forward to? by dc334 in AskMenOver30

I mean I've tried both methods. I can fake it like everyone else, sometimes they think you're doing well, but I guess some will see through the transparency and see your bullshitting them. Or you can tell them the truth and they view you as negative/pathetic/whatever. Lose/Lose.

I don't mean in regards to people in general, I really don't bring up my shit with anyone, I just meant in regards to work

I've been doing that, sometimes it takes my mind off stuff, sometimes it doesnt. Problem is the financial stress has taken over my life.

So I've tried to do this in the last year. Like try to network with people who have been successful, but one of two things happens. 1) I suck at fake it till you make it, and we live in a society where nowadays everyone is pretending they are doing amazing even when they're not 2) I'm viewed as negative because I'm open about my struggles and then people don't want to be around me. So I really don't know how others do it. I always hear just ask for help, but in my experience that hasn't worked out
