From my own experience, try not to stay in one feeling too long. Drags everything out. Just focus on whats in front of you to do.

Hey man!

First off sorry about your Dad, that's gotta be rough! And second that really sucks about your girl!

I feel for you dude!

Last year wasn't a good one for me, but you get through these things! It's in our nature to survive them!

Keep your chin up bud!

Sending you good vibes and all emotional type stuff that blokes aren't allowed to properly articulate!

I don't know the details, but give it a little time.


I've had many friends who had bad break ups over many years in a relationship, only to come back together months later stronger than ever.. Give it time.

I hate to bring this up, but why put exclamation points at the end of every sentence? It just makes you seem excited that he's feeling down. Maybe thats just one of my pet peeves. But anyway, I always rely on friends to cheer me up or music to soothe my soul if i feel like being alone when things like things like this happen. Look to the future and create some goals for yourself (Like to see pearl jam in 2012 ).

Oh that fucking sucks. My dad died last January and it did make it a shitty year. Losing your lady totally blows.

Here's to hoping that you can find strength in the memory of your dad and the anger/sadness of today's activities. I would say drink a case of beer and wallow in it for a few days. Then focus on what is in front of you -- never know where this strange road may take us.

Makes much more sense, to live in the present tense

That is pretty awful to go through. I recently went through the same with my girl, it is awful and hard to get over. Just talk to your family and friends. Do whatever you can to get your mind off of it...it is going to be hard but you will prevail trust me. Very sorry again, just stick in there man.

binx

Leaves you open for what's to come.

Very sorry about your Dad.

things will get better. they always do!

So sorry to hear that DS. There's not really anything that can be said to make this easier on you..just take it one day at a time and surround yourself with people that care about you.

supadupa

Sorry to hear that. But trust me, if you hang in there and keep some faith in yourself, things will be okay.

That sounds really corny now that I've read over it, but it's true.

I'm self medicating right now...I've never felt this way in my life. You guys may have read some of my posts in the past and generally I just like to have fun. I don't get too serious about anything...but this has crushed me. The past two months have mentally brought me to my knees. I don't fucking eat anymore because I can't hold anything down...25 pounds lost in 6 weeks and I'm a smaller guy to start with. I live in an area now that I fucking hate and with no one here.

Hang in there man. Life is a funny roller coaster with twist and turns and ups and downs just ride it out. Woman come and go sure u dont wanna hear that now but get better start getting the munchies gain some weight and smile. The Bills are 4-2 and Wash is going to limp into Toronto if that helps or even gives you a smile for a second.

pinkbutterfly

I feel so bad for all you are going through. *HUG*

Oh I'm so sorry to hear this mate, hope things get better for you really soon.

hey man, i know exactly how feel.... it sucks. best advice i can give you is don't let yourself sink too deep, keep your mind occupied. if you can learn to take your mind off it, everything will come back(appetite, happiness).

obviously this won't happen over night, just stick with it and you'll be fine.

shoot me a pm if you ever just need to talk to someone...
