Has there ever been a point in your life?

[Ant-Shimmin]

Where you have been in utter desperation?

I think mine may of been on Holiday, I was looking up at the stars and I just cried, alot of stuff was going on, family stuff, love life and I felt as if Nothing was going for me...

What about yourselves?

[Dan Dare]

There was this one time on Halo. It was 49-49, so I totally couldn't die or shit, then this noob came up to me and he was all like 'omg, so gonna get the last kill' but I pwnd him. I got the last kill, and all my friends loved me.

It was an intense time.

[Mr. Bananagrabber]

When I had 14 weeks off or something because of the GCSE's I was so utterly bored and depressed I watched Starsky and Hutch repeats on UKTV Gold.

[Platty]

March 20th of this year one of my best friends died at the age of 23, I didnt think things could get any worse and then 2 weeks later my close cousin was killed at the age of 39.

At that point I had never felt so low.

Life isnt fair.

However we have to carry on and yesterday was one of the happiest days of my life when I walked my sister down the aisle and gave her away at her wedding.

[Hellfire]

Are you trying to make me even more depressed?

[Dan Dare]

However we have to carry on and yesterday was one of the happiest days of my life when I walked my sister down the aisle and gave her away at her wedding.

That's awesome :)

I've not been to a proper wedding yet. I somehow doubt my brother's emotionally abusive relationship with his crazy girl is going that way, nor my other brother's responsibility free life...

[gaggle64]

I don't know really. The last time things were getting genuinely bad was during my school days, and then I just retreated into a sort of mental shell.

There is no point in this planet even existing, so there is no point in my life.

Fair Play Mate, Nice One :)

[mariosmentor]

I suppose last year and the years before that in my life I was incredibly low where I lost alot of people, generally lost and I didn't like the person I was. Now its looking up though.

Doing something I genuinely enjoy and looking after my younger brother. I've stopped caring about other people which I suppose is some kind of mental defense I've created.
I just don't give a shit about anything or anybody anymore and I like it.

[Gaijin von Snikbah]

Sometime when watching Extreme Home Makeover. I feel almost like a slut after watching it.

[The Bard]

Around February last year, I was so depressed and desperate that I literally hated everyone, most of all myself...the social angst just builds up and people keep grinding you down to the point where you can't honestly feel enthusiastic about anything anymore. That was about the time where I started posting on this forum and met my (now ex) girlfriend. Things picked up after that, but it was the worst I'd ever felt.

I now love myself. Honestly, my awesomeness keeps me up at night

[Calza]

There is no point.

Life is like a hot bath. It feels good while you're in it, but the longer you stay in, the more wrinkled you get.

You listen to Joy Division, you must be depressed.

[Supergrunch]

No, not really, I'm a bouncing back sort of person.

[Dan Dare]

You listen to Joy Division, you must be depressed.

They're just awesome though :)

[Ramar]

I don't think I've ever been depressed, but I am starting feel I need to change my life a bit. I need more excitement.

[Daft]

LMFAO!:laughing:

Damn, that gave me a good laugh!:laughing:

I use to be a manicly depressed person but to be honest I don't remember there being a good reason...Now I'm generally a cheerful chappy, partly because I fear ever fealing as shittiy as I did back then...I do worry sometimes I will slip back into old habbits...

[BeerMonkey]

in the past (around 3-4 years ago) i got so down with live i actually had a suicide note written up and was thinking of taking a overdose.
*dont want to get into why i thought of suicide*

most down ive been in the past year thou was when my girlfriend dumped me last june i remember the next day some mates took me to the pub to try and get over it but i ended up walking off from the pub for over a hour....in that time i found a quiet alley and just fell to the floor and cryed my eyes out. When i got bak to pub my friend lucy knew something was up and comforted me for a while she really helped alot. We had a few chats like that night and now i havent been to bad.

[flameboy]

Yes...right about now...neither me or my girlfriend got on our post graduate courses so I'm not going to become a teacher anytime soon and she won't become a speech therapist, we've got to move back in with my parents because we've got no money...and to cap it all off her mum has been in hospital ill and has to go back in again!

[weeyellowbloke]

Utter desperation, nah not my style. I don't really see the point in depression, anger or wallowing in self pity, just seems a bit of a waste of time. By all means I have had points in my life where I've felt upset, worried or stressed or felt sympathetic or empathetic to others plights, but bugger it, how can I stay down when there's trees and mountains. Maybe I've just never had anything that awful happen to me or maybe I'm just annoyingly upbeat.

[Stefkov]

At night I actually used to think about what happens when you die. How it is just basically a sleep without waking up. Without the dreams, that got me really upset when I was younger. Used to cry.
Now I just stay awake as long as possible, then drop off straight away.

At times I used to wonder what's the point. Now I just think the same but less often. Now my mind is blank whenever I do anything. If anything pops up on the occasion then it goes into my head then leaves.
Then on the odd occasion I just look at my family and what I'm achieving and just think nothing. I might aswell live out this life to the best I can.

Depressing ftw!!!

[Eenuh]

Not sure desperation and depression are the same, but yeah.
I've been depressed quite often, and I still get depressed quite often too. Often related to just having so much to do, so much to worry about and then it all becomes a bit too much. Though I guess that's just "being down". Last year I was depressed though. So hated the school I was in, the city I lived in, the people I lived with (not my family) and it just all felt wrong. I would lock myself up in my room there all week, go to bed at ridiculous hours and wake up at even more ridiculous hours. And lots of crying and trying to act normal in front of my family. Got so bad that I contacted my cousin (also consider her a really big friend) and we talked for hours and hours more than once, and eventually she told me to just tell my parents.
And now I'm in a different school, staying at home again and generally feeling better. =3

Though I have to say I still feel down quite a lot and I actually have suicidal thoughts sometimes (though more like: if we would have an accident now and I would be the only one killed, I don't think I would mind. Stuff like that...). Hope I never actually act one out though. =X

[AshMat]

Oh please, please somebody change tthe title to "there".


Anyway, yes, when my mum went missing on holiday a few years back. She got real drunk, and wandered back to the room on her own without telling us, i was shitting myself.

[Letty]

Once or twice, but no details.
Im happy!!

[Zechs Merquise]

Of course, everyone experiences misery like that, usually at the hands of others. I'm not about to bleat my inner most heart aches on a message board, but I have had very rough times.

The measure of a man is getting through them and living with your pain.

[DCK]

If there's no point in your life, the point is to find the point.

Really, life's easy.

[Raining_again]

I'm working during the day, studying a degree at night. Suffering a lot from arthritis. On stupid amounts of medications - actually a mild form of chemo - which makes my body completely exhausted.

Its not improving and my specialist wants to put me on something different, which makes me feel like i'm running around in circles. My purpose right now is trying not to crack under all the pressure.

/moan

[martinist]

the point to my life is to live as long as possible....e.g for another say....70-75 years

[mcj metroid]

I kind of suffer from depression. I get it for no reason at all it's very weird really.

but this one time in halo............:)

[somme]

I'm fine. Bit bored at this very second. Might have a drink of coca cola.

[Strider]

I felt down not long ago, was about school and generally having a boring day to day life... oh shit i've still got one. Well i can't do anthing about it untill i leave school so yeah.

[Shorty]

I think when I had to move back from America I was utterly distraught. I was upset enough to actually be sick. Then after I got back I realised that everything I'd been clinging to wasn't as great as I had thought, and got over it pretty quickly :D Right now there's something going on in my life which is both negative and positive, which I'm going to have to make a decision about sooner or later ^^; - but I wouldn't call it a point of depression. I'm actually quite happy, because I think where I live for Uni in my second year is going to be excellent!

[Rummy]

Reading some of this thread, it seems I have been lucky not to encounter anything to really bring me down. Even having said that, I'm a bit bouncy in that if I get superdown(which i have a few times, over stupid angsty stuff when I was younger) I usually am not for long, though I'll often sort of get to a point where the issue is still there, but I look at what good stuff I've got going too. Either that, or move up to a slightly less serious but kind of mopey stage. As I said though, it's all been over stupid stuff, stuff which doesn't really matter to the real world.

[rokhed00]

God, I've had so many low points in my life, being thrown out by my parents in the middle of a blizzard, deliberately overdosing on heroin on my birthday, being victimized by the police, no wonder I have so many good things happen to me nowadays. Karma really does work.

[Daft]

I remember vividly this one time in Halo, seriously it was last night and I'm sure other forum memebers will back me up, when we had a Big Team Match with a bunch of there American kinds that kept saying some crap about the Queen ruling the country and just would not shut the f*ck up....Its times like that I consider if life is actually worth living!


Sorry, I just had to get that out of my system....

[Marshmellow]

When I got off the plane only to find my 4 x360 controllers were no longer in my bag... Then having my Zune break... depressing week.

[EEVILMURRAY]

When I couldn't defeat Dark Link in my first playthrough of Ocarina Of Time.

[rokhed00]

Nice to know I came close to death so somebody could make a few jokes.

[Letty]

Sorry, wrong thread but,

@ Rokhed
Did you get that holiday money back?

[Garden_Pigeon]

Just now... If anyone watched the news yesterday a kid in Blackpool got stabbed and died... I knew him... He died so young.

[Daft]

Nice to know I came close to death so somebody could make a few jokes.

Yea my bad! :hmm:
I only realised after I posted!
SORRY!:(

[Slaggis]

As someone said earlier the point of life is to live as long as possible

There'll of course be some shitty times, but there'll be some awesome times too.

It's life, its a bitch.
