Things You Are Not Stoked On

[JB]

Seasonal Affective Disorder has me in some dark places right now... I want to talk to my wife about it, but I also don't want to frighten her or make her feel like she can't handle it... I don't know what to do, Pals.

I know what you mean, but talk to her about it sooner than later. She's your wife. If anyone has your back, it should be her (I'm sure she does). If you can't say everything you need to, go talk to a therapist. The worst thing you can do is not say whats on your mind.

It gets better to talk about shit and I get how you you might not want to talk with your wife or whatnot sometimes it's good to ask for a hug.

 I know it sounds dumb but it really helps if you are feeling like shit for no reason or another. Kinda like Bob in fight club sometimes a hug really does help she asks why just hold closer they seem to love a vulnerable men especially when we are quiet.

You are both right. I can trust her and she does have my back. I just don't want to overwhelm her when she has her own problems, ya know? We've only been married a little over a month and I don't want her to feel like that's a factor because that is the LAST thing that would be a factor.

Exactly what he said. Sometimes as a guy you feel like a woman can’t handle your issues, but the truth is they can and they want to. When you don’t tell them they notice something is off and if you don’t communicate they think it’s them. I am just now learning this shit.

[Yu Dum]

You guys are right. I need to bring the proverbial walls down and let her know that I'm not doing so well.
Thanks, guys. Being a newlywed is something I never thought I'd experience. It's nice to know that I have a little bit of guidance through this.

Going through exactly the same thing.  I can nearly time it after a lot of lost years. As soon as my car is frozen in the morning my mood drops through the floor.  Already called in sick. But I know it’s meds’ time again. Not worth the torture I put myself and anyone around me through. I hate it so much but I can do something to help it. Try to tell people what is going on. Things get so much darker if you keep it all inside. Good luck man.  You’re definitely not alone.

An old coworker/friend/nicest dude ever has been missing for over a week. Last seen leaving a bar at 3 am. He has a medical condition that renders him unable to walk if not taken care of properly. Injured in Afghanistan veteran who would jokingly call himself a cyborg because has this futuristic leg thing that he literally has to charge daily to allow him to walk (after about a year in a wheelchair)

It’s sad and weird. Logically, he’s dead. His family isn’t saying it though they’re posting about hoping he “walks through that door”. Suicide or dying some terrible way because his legs stopped working seem more realistic than him running off somewhere. Cops have searched rivers and woods for him twice, he’s just gone.

Happiest most upbeat war veteran you’ve ever met. Not even 30 years old. was trying to do stand up with his corny ass dad jokes lol. Did a whole lot for my life by getting me my current job.

So fucking depressing I don’t even know why I’m posting this.

This. I have a hard time taking about my feelings too. I know I said that it's good to talk, but sometimes it's hard to even come up with something to say. Sometimes I just feel down and can't even figure out why. Just asking for a hug let's my wife know that I'm having a hard time, but that I don't really know how to explain it.

My hand has been broken for a week and I they still haven't cleared a fucking referral for me to get this shit properly looked at. I have to type 9 hours a goddamn day with a boxers fracture.

you should at least splint the finger with bad knuckle up against the next finger. Might make typing hard but worth it. I had thta happen while i was on crutches for different injury, didn’t go to dr for it for like a year and it healed wrong. They said if i had splinted it it would be fine. It’s not that bad but i wish i took care of it

[close]

Good info. Should just buy a new brace with a finger splint I guess.

Is it your 5th matacarsal? Broke mine last year and after the cast I rehabbed it in a splint that holds your pinky and ring finger. I was in a cast for about 6 weeks.

Do you remember any comments he may have made about places or people of interest?

There's a world of possibilities both positive and negative

Not really. I knew him here in NYC and he was over it and always wanted to move back to Iowa where he’s from. He and his girl in NY eventually broke up and he packed his shit up and moved back. He sounded happy there to me when we texted. Same old goofy ass dude. It’d be naive to believe he wasn’t bummed by his medical situation, he couldn’t feel his dick, as he would often remind us, but from the outside he’s the epitome of a positive outlook kinda dude.

I love seeing the positivity you all show. I love you all as a whole!
But yes, f the stereotypes, it's okay for a man to feel upset and we should be able to reach out for support.

To add on, a kid at work told me he didn't know why but he wanted to cry, sadly didn't have time to talk him through his emotions and I think Karma got me back. My charger refuses to charge my laptop and I caught a stomach bug.

[DarthDingusMaximus]

I get being tough on yourself as that’s the only person who can see who you really are but it’s a great place for asking for help whenever you are vulnerable.

Ladies do help and give a common ground for you to rationalize your feelings, I know it sounds like gossip talk but being direct and staying focused on however you are feeling really let’s you feel like your not alone.

Shit man, what could you have said though? Life is hard? Obviously not but I mean, I used to work with kids and I don’t know what I would say to one if they told me that.

Not sure, but I feel that just holding place would help. Just have them explain how they feel and maybe help them understand that it may be puberty or at least let them air it out. Some kids get worried parents may respond negatively or they themselves aren't very open to mental health stuff so, letting them talk it out can help.

Oh fuck. I thought he wrote he missed his train. It's a saying I've heard to describe a certain time period someone should have started a family

Nah just a drunk dumbass who fell asleep on a train
