I don't know your particular issue(s), but the only advice I can offer is to "hang in there."
Yes, it's a cheesy line, but it works.
As Noah mentioned, life is full of surprises...some good, and some just rotten.

I've always had issues talking about my problems to loved ones, even though I'm not disappointing them, I'm really hard on myself and think that I am disappointing them for some reason...
I hate the fact that I'm so hard on myself, even worse is that I keep it to myself until I cant take it anymore and just let it all out.
I find it much easier to vent things here on BAIC then it is to my family in real life, so I thank you and apologize for being vague and creating a lot of words that most of you probably don't like to read... haahaha...
I got barely any sleep last night and am running on empty... Nothing that happened yesterday stands out particularly, its just the 5 events mixed into 1 and I start getting some weird panic attack-like feeling... But like I said, I'm trying my best to reach for the stars to touch them... To anyone thats being affected by this damn economy as well as going through other things on top of that, always think positive!
No matter how far down in a hole you are, never give up and leave yourself in there to die... Fight your *** off to get out of the hole and way above it! It's really helped me with dealing with problems... I used to be Mr Negative when I was a teen and that got me nowhere, besides, chicks dont dig negative guys.

Seriously, BAIC is friggin great! Over the last 9 years, BAIC has brought me a lot of joy, luck, and just overall greatness.
To all the guys and gals I know personally, I'm missing a few pairs of my underwear (leather thong), I figure that I must have left a few pairs at some of your houses, if you see them please return them next time I visit, Mmmmkay? Ha, see what I mean, I feel so much better by just reading this thread.

Just 1 mg but they said I can take 2 of them if 1mg doesn't help.

Have you had one of those days when you want to try heroin, drunk driving... some form of soft suicide.
Hand in there, dude. Call me or stop by whenever you want. I'm all ears.

Even though I have never met you, I thought I share something that I know had a positive impact on more than one individual...
I had a close enough friend attempt suicide and fortunately not succeed in his attempt. I had the privilege of being one of the few people he confined his experience. He was in a pretty bad stop when he made his attempt and, without going into too much detail, it something I would never even remotely wish on anyone. For him it was just a perfect storm [personal, career, financial, etc] that he could no longer deal with even though he tried seeking help.
However, during his attempt, for that brief moment of choosing to take his life, executing the action and result that followed...he said he never thought more clearly and at that moment, no matter how bad his problems were...they seem completely and utterly inconsequential and pointless in relation to life itself. It took him a failed suicide attempt to realize that there is always a light at the end of the tunnel and nothing is worth ending it all, nothing. That is the worst way out.
His story put a lot of things in perspective and how way too often people do not see the big picture.
I do not want to go into any more detail on thread and I do not know if this helps or makes sense, but I though I share it.

just remember that u live in the bay, bums got it easy here. u have all your arms and legs and u have lots of guns. i rarely get depressed or sad or mad, and i've been through some pretty crazy stuff, im sure everyone has. whenever im in those situations, i always seem to humble myself by thinking bout the rest of the world and how my problems...as bad as i may think they are...really arent that bad. i see old asian ladies going through my recycling bin looking for stuff to recycle and think to myself, damn im sure they've been through alot, and they still goin through it. this too shall pass. its mostly in your head. dont let it get to you too much, thats how people go crazy.

Wow I never would have guessed Bruce was Emo..lol jk bro cheer up man, times are rough these days, I can understand the anxiety attacks tho. I get em at least once a week some days can be really bad for me, i dont take anything for em though i should. Dont like the idea of relying on a pill, but just keep your head up and watch for depression that can sneak up on ya during an anxiety attack..so maybe stay away from your "Armory"

Odd - I had a doozy of one last night too. Completely out of no where.
Edit: Now that I think about it - with the economy how it is and everyone scared for their job and to keep their lifestyle alongside the frustration of not having what one would wants to have right now is effecting A LOT of people in America.
Bam. Read this.
