Title: Happy (?) New Year To The Community!
Post by: Charger on December 31, 2018, 10:28:49 AM
Well...

I could go on and on about how bloody miserable this past year has been but I won't...it serves no point.

I could also go on and on about how bloody miserable the next year is gonna be but I won't...won't make any difference anyways.

So yeah...welcome the new year...it's the same as the old year.

The truth is for some of us nothing ever changes and misery travels with us no matter what we do and where we go. Some things just cannot change.


But regardless of my state, I would still like to wish all of YOU a happy new year!

You are all special and I :love: you all!

Charger, if I may say something, my state is much like yours, I have no friends not even at work, there is always hope my friend, just grasp onto that and never give it up.

You are one of the few that has been kind to me, shows you are a good person.

I will keep hope for you my friend and I use the word literally, a Happy New Year to you and everyone on here.

For the record I am a bit of a loner and most of my friends are more like acquaintances. I only have my Mom for family and she lives 5000 miles away on the other side of the country.
Music keeps me alive if I am totally honest. Also having you friends here on the Community really improves my quality of life.

Anyway - Happy New Year everybody and I hope you all have a wonderful year in 2019.

Much Love for all of you!!!

Happy New Year! Hope 2019 is better than 2018 for everyone.

Friends and family are overrated.  I can get by fine with a limited amount of each.

Happy New Year to the Community. :ninja:

Depression is the story of my miserable life, which is getting better with hope.

Well I always get bit down on christmas and new years...especially on new years I suppose as you kind of end up reflecting the year gone by whether you want to or not and well...that always gets me down.

Many many years ago I thought that the next year cannot possibly be as bad as the one before but...alas...it always is, so that's a hope I no longer have. Having such realism about the state of affairs does give atleast a certain solace if nothing else. With no expectations you can not be let down by the reality.


Well I better stop before this becomes even more depressing... :D 20 minutes to midnight.

Everybody has sucky times, some more so than others. I'm a depression and anxiety guy but I have a lot of good days. That's what I concentrate on. 11:59, Happy New Year everyone!!!

Shit, my balls are dropping. :rofl:

I've got the depressions and anxieties, as well, and the truth is that there are ways to deal with them. There's always hope.

Therefore, I can wish a happy new year to us all, and feel good about it.

I am even later to the party. Happy New Year to everyone

I know it is tough looking at the bright spots in one's life. I have depression and anxiety as well as being a diabetic. At 49 I feel more like 79. I have many other issues with my diabetes, to which I won't get into. 2018 was a bad year. My son has been hurt, my mother-in-law had a stroke, which I feel I am not far behind, and as always money was an issue. So for me I am looking for a better year. I have to look at it as everyday I get another chance to wake up and see the sun rise. To kiss my wife. To hug my son. I am lucky in that I do have family, friends and loved ones to help me. To all those who are down at this time of year, hang in there and remember life ain't always beautiful, but at least everyday you can make it what you want. Weather listening to some great music like Black Sabbath, or watching a great movie or whatever it is that makes you happy.

So may wonderful times be ahead of all of us here at the Community!!

Thanks for sharing Discman, there is always hope, a light at the end of the tunnel.

I hate it when these young kids commit suicide, so young and they end it, so many cases nowadays, it breaks my heart.

No problem. We all have issues, always good to share and be supportive.

Yes it is, support is the best thing we can do for another human being, it saves lives.

Part of my dealing with depression was learning to see suffering as a positive experience, in that through it I am still participating in the overall pageant of life.
