"***** Life." |
I say those two words every night I lay my head down to sleep,for a
full year now. I never thought things would ever be as bad as they are
now, compared to how well things were going, 8-9 years ago. Since then
life has been a slow decline, beyond my control. I've tried to sort
things out but for the most part it's just backfired on me; blown up
in my face. I don't like the person I've become and I don't think
anyone has any idea just how many neuroses plague my life. I'm a total
stick in the mud, completely unable to make decisions. Life is a
regimented, contrived affair and all I do is watch myself.

I hear ya man, but here is the deal. Life is the only game in town. I
don't like myself either but I try and improve and make the best of it.
There is nothing I can tell you though, we know that. The thing is ,
it might get better. I know it never seems like it, but I think it is
worth hanging around to see. If it doesn't? Your call, but Iv'e seen
'em come back from worse. Focus on simple things. Ah, forget it. I
don't blame you for not listening.

Ok. While I don't say those exact two words every night, I think
I know what you are saying.
The decision part is a big part of my problem too (I've got a fairly
strong commitment disorder as part of the deal)
Especially in my case, mid life, it's clear that regimented and
contrived give one the screaming shites and therefore require
a change in direction. It is difficult to make a major life change
though - devil you know, or devil you don't.
I think I'm much the same in this regard.
