I feel so worn out and exhausted.

I feel so worn out and exhausted.

I can relate to that. Not sure how much of it is aging.. and how much of it is I need a lifestyle change?

I think they are related.

I feel like I am suffocating; just going through the motions, and smiling through the tears.

I’ll have to find more Cranky quotes for @.Mikha'el. …..Do you have a favorite one.

I gave you mine. “We were just happy with one button & a joystick.” That’s the only one that I can remember but I loved them all.

I found another one yesterday. It was something like “they’re wasting pixels on my beard swinging.”

I feel like I am suffocating; just going through the motions, and smiling through the tears.

I'm sorry to hear that, Does. Turn to God & pray deep, consistently, & regularly. He will help.

Strange, mature dreams last night. Kept me awake. Not used to having dreams like this.

 

[DragonFox91]

It's just taking way too long. She is. Or me.

@ReesePiece23 hope you’re well, bud!

His arch-nemisis RiecePeace32 has abducted him, maybe.

Starting to learn that a lot of my mental issues stem from addiction. Not drugs, but something internally. Read a paper on masochism and it's relation to addiction. I believe my Christian upbringing greatly contributed to my addiction. How I can go zero to 60 very easily. The trouble with feeling empty.

Heck.. I used the term chemical withdrawal to talk about my difficulties losing my faith. I guess I was always aware.. but to see science starting to back my thoughts up... Well.. it gives me validation and makes the whole thing feel more real.

I'm not sure I understand. Foreign to me. Sorry

I'm being a little vague with my post. Older members might know more what I'm talking about.

Not sure how much I want to get into it. It's hard... I've been so hurt by Christianity... yet talking about it is hard too. I've been blunter in the past, but it really angered some posters. Despite what some think, I'm not trying to be some 'edgy atheist', its simply sometimes too hard not to talk about the trauma I faced.

Looking forward to the fourth of July weekend/vacation.

Double standards; so, why is it okay that one person gets away with one thing while another person cannot?! It just does not seem fair to me, that's all.

I’ve said it before, I want so much for English to have different words for love like some other languages too.
Our word is too generic. It means too many different things. It’s kind of been hijacked by the world too.

Different words for different applications:
Love like a man has for a woman (& vice versa)
Love like parents have for children
Brotherly love
Love for objects, events, things, etc. like ‘I love going to the beach’ or 'I love this movie.'
Love like Gods unconditional love for his sheep

Our language has problems.

Double standards; so, why is it okay that one person gets away with one thing while another person cannot?! It just does not seem fair to me, that's all.

As Christians we believe in the uniqueness of the individual & the different paths & callings God has given people.
(Does NOT mean you should treat people unfairly -> just that it happens b/c of nonbelievers & Christans themselves who are sinful ourselves)
