rudi must stay Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 I've been thinking about this for a while and not had the guts to post. I have felt basically like absolute crap since 2015, went to the doctors and had x-rays done (3 in total). Those build up and I am left as a person with no strength in his body, I play football and I can't run in constant pain, I hate it (oh he's crap he can't track back). Life is shit and I hope people can now understand my posts, yes they can be a bit weird but life has been weird since 2015. It is good to get that off my chest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

highlandjambo3 Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 Life can be shit for some people whilst others appear to get a really great run. My life has changed considerably over the last 4 years with the death of my daughter, my mum and recently my brother. The one huge thing that really made a difference for me was telling people how I felt and how I was dealing with stuff…..don’t go down the “man up” route, it’s not how we should be dealing with stuff. It’s alright coming on here and saying how you feel, it’s actually a huge step but, tell at least 1 person close to you how you feel.

Morgan Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 So sorry to hear that, rudi. Yes, some of your posts/threads are ‘different’ but they usually get a good response and are, in the main, funny. I think it’s the short, sharp style you use that I particularly like so please, don’t stop them. Take care, sir. 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My most sympathetic and supportive people have been right on here. Some but very few neighbors have helped, but honestly the main source of success is your own desire to live a full life, overcome your challenges, and be thankful for what you have and what you can do. The one thing about life is you can always see or find people with more challenges than you. This particular time with Covid and its restrictions is difficult, but remember "this too shall pass".

It was a reply back to the Xbox comment but I couldn’t be arsed getting into a argument over someone else’s comment on a thread what was probably difficult to even start by the OP. In my past I’ve had difficulties with depression and feeling absolutely worthless I felt a lot better speaking out my feelings and problems with friends and even people I don’t really know which has helped. Folk deal with situations and feelings differently I suppose. Xbox comment was a dickish comment, thinking it was funny it was the complete opposite. The person who is probably lonely and on his own is the one who commented, He probably divides his time between trying to get a rise on the kickback and regular to pornhub .

Lone Striker Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 Very sorry to read about your daily struggles, @rudi must stay. Respect for opening up on here, and I'm sure many will offer support & kind words etc even if they can't give practical advice. Its good to hear Bob ( @Sharpie) say that he finds some comfort from JKB after his tragic losses. @highlandjambo3 too - and I think his advice is correct when he says that finding just 1 person in "real life" who is willing to listen and support you is important.

rudi must stay Posted November 19, 2021 Author Share Posted November 19, 2021 How can anyone help. I think the only thing for me is to get my story out there, the NHS won't want to hear it but they have made the past 6 years of my life a misery. I think if I was picking a number thats due another £100,000. I have started CBT and I think I'll tell the guy, he can spout his nonsense about that being fine but I'm afraid, despite me having learning difficulties, I can't be kidded and if he does say that maybe I'll just walk out but very slowly as I'm a cripple. I am fed up with the health service as everyone would be. I see GPs now and the authority they have and it reminds me of the police. 2 minutes they make some drastic diagnosis and you have to live with it. It's people that have communication problems like I do, as to be honest I am not a prick as they seem to all be, that get cr@p treatment. I guess I should write my story it might be one that divides opinion but it would make me money as it must be a unique story.

I had never heard of DMT before then a mate started going on about it. He took a real interest in it and recently made some himself. He said it was an incredible experience. Said once he gets more confident with it he'll up the dosage. He genuinely believes it will take him into other dimensions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
