01/25 - We Are Number One on Wednesday!

that sounds awful. glad you opened up though. I feel like i'm in a similar situation... just feeling like I don't have enough. To be honest, I've never even had a decent paying job for longer than 3 months. I graduated college in 2009 thinking that because I've been getting A's and B's my whole life that I was somehow prepared for the world. A year and 5 jobs later, I was bagging groceries. Still do it today when I'm not turking. My depression comes from the fact that I always thought that the hard work I did in school would lead to me having an awesome career and lots of money, and now it feels like I'm so far behind even the people that dropped out of middle school.

I got a question for you... you can answer it here if you want or you could ask it to yourself... What would have to (realistically) happen in your life that would make everything perfect?

Pardon me if I don't address your situation in depth right now. I don't think I'm up to it, But I strongly suggest you watch the vid I'm going to post, and that you consider buying the book "The Happiness Advantage" by Shawn Achor. What kind of degree did you get, and how old are you? About 28?

Me? I need to get out of this "town." There is NOTHING here. And I mean NOTHING. I need to make more money. I'm living on reduced social security. And I need a vehicle that I can rely on. My truck is constantly a total pain in the ass. And it would be a good thing if I had a therapist with whom I "connected."

And the video will at least give you a laugh, which is always a good thing. (More later when I'm up to it.)

part of your problem is you're comparing yourself to others. You cant live like that. You're not behind people that dropped out of middle school. You're still you. You see the world around you and think why I dont I have that? Life is unfair like that. Why do other people get those jobs? I cant answer that. But, I do know that in order to be happy, you gotta start looking at the small victories instead of the big picture. And in due time even if takes you till you're 50. You'll reach that goal. it's not a sprint it's a marathon

I strugle with things like this also. I registerd just to say thank you. Reading this made me feel better. Thanks for the HITS also. Nice website. *hug*

I wondering if it's messed up because it seems to just jump to the demographics page and asks you if you've done a survey like this? Weird...

I just did it and it was like a normal survey, except the code which was odd.

I have had a lot of people recommend that book to me and hadn't even thought to look for free videos until I can afford the book. Thanks so much for this post!

Chris,lab hates me. I haven't been able to work one of their HITs in a while. I'm okay with it but, that one was right in my 6yo nephew's wheelhouse. I was going to get him to help.

Really?

Pretty sad when you don't even qualify for a survey called chocolate or poop, might as well hang it up for a while.

 

[j0e]

that's how much a decent 1br apt in a relatively safe spot is in north Houston as well. the struggle is real

I lived in and out of campgrounds throughout my life. Camper wasn't huge but it was spacious enough, and it was around 250-300/month utilities included then. Simpler, peaceful times :ok:

EDIT You're probably right, though.
