The key is knowing and believing there are people in this world that care and are willing to help. I hope Jason decides to reaching out to someone. Sharing his experience has made a difference in someone’s life, even his. People need to know they are not alone.

While people may not believe in God, they should just believe things do get better. However, we have to make an effort to make it better.

Never advice, only suggestions! I’m glad you were able to get something out of them! I wish you a great weekend too!

I appreciate the advice.

The current post at the site might intrigued. (Movies)

Have a good weekend!

First of all, I wanted to say that if writing out your feelings here is helpful to you, then, by all means, keep writing and writing. You will always be safe to do so.

Secondly, I have to say that no, your “rant of woe” does not in the least sound like a “loser in the midst of a regression…” but instead someone, like many, with many unresolved issues and feelings from past events and how they have worked on your self esteem. NO ONE is helpless or hopeless in my opinion, including YOU!

I don’t care what you have done in your past, there is ALWAYS the opportunity for a bright future! I refuse to think, as far as you’re concerned, any differently. You have said several things in this comment that make me certain that you have some very solid strengths and resources within you that can make living inside yourself a happy experience. In other words, you CAN have a happy life.

I’m sorry for the less than desirable experiences with counselors/doctors you have had in the past, but the key is NOT to give up. I am offering you here, the opportunity to try something different. If you would like further help and will believe that perhaps maybe it would be worth the time and investment on your part…I am here to help you. Find me at DOCintheBiz. If it’s not me, I will only hope you WILL find someone else to help you. There are hundreds of therapists out there and I would never say a good one is easy to find, but it is possible.

Thank you so much for what you have shared and remember, what I have written in a past article, “There is no such thing as a bad person, only bad choices and behaviors.”

My own opinion: Bipolar.

I’ve been a personal rollcoaster since about age 11. (Divorce.)
Even when I get things going right (college degree and prof. position), I will within 12-18 months screw it up, get frustrated or otherwise, jump to another pasture.

In 2001-2003 I was incarcerated. So that put the final nail in the corp. coffin of doing anything in that realm. (And the charge would undoubtedly cause you concern - but it didn’t involve violence or sexual deviancy.) I’ve tried about 400+ places to get a career back on track. And tried any tact that could work. None does. And so that’s over, for now.

Now I just write and deliver the news nightly(with 70% going to the folks), while that tenuous family concern (mother and aunt) take the slow boat to oblivion financially. A boat I am sinking since I had student loans, 2 credit cards that now I can’t pay at all - it’s my own damn fault, that prison and all.

(And they are the root of my frustrations, along with my father, who is not in the picture for 25+ years. Change is not a concept any of them do. And I studied Industrial Engineering. Figure that one out…)

Too much I know to tell. But as per usual, we Americans don’t do anything half-ass in terms of screwing up.

Yes, I did drink to excess in college and up until 2001. (Binge) Since July 2003, I haven’t been drunk. I don’t even really think about it - but I do have one-three drinks about once a month. Not a need, more of the only place I can fit in at is a social bar. I’m not religious, nor will I ever be. So church orgs. are out. I won’t join up anywhere because my worst problem in life took place via the Jaycees and “helping.” (Too much baggage and anger over how that turned out.)

If drinking is ‘the problem’, it’s about 5th on a list. (And the others are far more salient.)

Long story short, day-to-day, I wander through a pit of almost endless despair. Sure, I pop up my head every once in a while to check out the view, seeing others doing things pretty good, but it only engenders the type of “wish I had that going for me” that isn’t healthy.

I worked on a baseball book for 3+ years, actually have it pretty well done, however, barriers in that field exist. And I do want it the way I wrote it, compiled it and envisioned it. But the assistance on that front has been sparse, and unexcited, at best.

Real Friends: none.
Blog friends: maybe 6.
Acquaintances: Priceless and worth little at the same turn.

Now, after that little rant of woe, I can only expect it sounds typical of a loser in the midst of a regression backward to a place that he can’t solve.

But I knew that.

I apologize for sharing too much in some nebullous expectation that you have the time (and therefore, money) to assist this personal dilemma.

But I do have a question:

Do I fit into either of these categories neatly: HOUND or YAVIS?

Once again, sorry to have told all this. But it obviously was bothering me.

I’m sorry you have had to endure this experience. I hope you have been able to seek out alternative help to become diagnosed properly and hence, get proper treatment.

All my best and know I am always here at DOCintheBiz. Thank you for your comment. Please keep reading and posting.

I can understand exactly what you are saying about being labeled incorrectly by an unqualified person, or even a qualified person! The repercussions of this act can indeed be very negative, even devastating. On the other hand, when people are diagnosed CORRECTLY, it can be life altering, causing many wonderful changes to help a child or adult to succeed on his/her level, feel better about themselves and hence reduce fear of the symptoms and lessening of the symptoms (with proper care).

Thank you for your comment. Please keep reading and posting.
