Tired of your sad life?

[geewj]

Well get over it. Crying about it isnt going to help any. Its just going to remind you how much things suck and divert time and effort from trying to fix them.

If you're sick of how things are then do something about it. A half ass effort isnt going to fix things, you're gonna have to step out of your comfort zone.

If for some reason beyond your control there is no chance that things will get any beter, then crying still isnt going to help. Unless you want to spend 90% of your time feeling sorry for yourself then your going to have to adjust and make the best of what you have. There are pleanty of people who have it way worse than you but seem to manage. Thats cause they dont sit and complain thats things suck and will never get better. They accept the hand they were delt and make the best of it.

And I'm not trying to put anyone down, and this isnt directed to anyone inparticular, so dont get offended. Im guilty of all this too.

[Omni-SqwirL]

People who complain about their life being bad all the time, think about the little skinny ethiopians in Ethiopia that don't have any food...OR PSO! Complaining just makes your life worse than it already is.

I too, am guilty of this

[ABDUR101]

I am guilty as hell of this, but a bitch slap heard around the world got me on track.

Don't keep digging a damn hole, you'll never get to China and chances are you'll die before anything else happens.

That doesn't mean you ignore all the bad stuff, you just don't concentrate on it. Think everything over, let it sink in and go do something about it. Crying, whining and bitching is only useful to let off steam so you can then concentrate and get things straightened out, thats the extent of it's capability.

I hate my life!!1


Oops, sorry, wrong thread.

[LollipopLolita]

What is with it anyhow? Can no one take responsibility for their own choices or actions any more? Must everyone stoop to blaming something or someone else? Has self-esteem gotten so low that jealousy, resentment and rage are the only emotions kids can feel towards each other? Since when has it been acceptable to succumb to jealousy instead of being happy for someone, and then working to get the same thing for yourself? Can no one fess up and admit their own faults? What happened to taking control, getting your life together, and make it better. You, not your friends, not people, not your parents, not someone else. Feels like jr. high school. All the sniffing and bumping and posing ... then again that is the major age range.

The problem with people is that they complain about thier situation, but don't do anything about it.

You read the first post and all of our replies, did'nt you? =O

[TheZilon]

We can say that people should just put the stiff upper lip up, but I think there are two facets of the problem here-

One, there are the people who are annoying, who just do this for attention. "OMFG I HAT MY LIFE KIL ME NOW PLZPLZ KTHXBAI" The store doesn't have the hundered dollar boots in your size. Boo-hoo. I would like to poke these people until they were TRUELY sad. Oh, yes. What poking I would do! Ha!

Getting back on subject, there are the people who really do have problems. Bad family life, chemical imbalances resulting in depression, etc. The real irony that I see here is, the people who truely have a problem are usually desprately trying to get help, to heal themselves, and try not to complain much (I know a few people such as this) as the before mentioned just wallow in the attention. It's just sad.

Another thing, as Lolita mentioned - people tend to blame those better off then they, to divert their attention from their own problem. Sadly, I know exactly why this happens, also. Kids these days are just lazy, the stupid little whippersnappers! Why, in my day... no, wait. Heh. I'm the same age as these people. *cough* The point I was trying to make is, it's easier to blame someone else for things, to attack someone, than to look at your own faults. We see the faults of others much better than those of our own. It takes a stronger person to do that, and today's wormbabies are weak, sluggish things.

The question I ask is, when the heck is natural selection going to start kicking in and start picking off the weaklings?

[Blood_Dragoon]

You gotta love the attention whores that spam "I hate my Life". Personally I think most of these kids nowadays are the way they are because parents nowadays are too soft. Few examples being:

Child starts wailing at the top of their lungs just because their mom said they couldn't have something. Well if I would have done that when I was little I would have got smacked right there in the middle of the store. And it's really bad when half the kids I see doing this are over 8 yrs old.

I cought some kid trying to steal my CD's out of my car. So I catch him and call the cops. We find out where the kid lives and drag him back to his house to talk with his parents. His father answers the door and acts like it's my fault that his kid was trying to steal shit out of my car and tried to sue me!

Most of the trouble students at the school here verbally abuse their parents. Half the things these kids say to their parents, if I were to have said those things to my mother she would have thrown furniture at me.

Don't get me started on the Columbine incident from a few years ago. The parents of those kids could have prevented the whole thing from happening in the first place.

Then you have people that seem to think that anything bad that happens isn't their fault. This was probably imprinted in their minds by their parents doing the same thing.

Nothing like a good cussing spree to let out the steam. There's nothin' better than that, no siree!!

Yes I did.

[Mystil]

Yeah I'm guilty of this, yeah I'm a drama queen. I do not care though, cause I found a very effective way to express my sorrow. My talent in poetry. So I can careless, my complaining wont bother anyone that way.

[KodiaX987]

Yeah. Poetry is the best way to vent and look good doing it. http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif The problem is that I suck at it. http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

Another way is to become a soap opera actor. Those people in there cry and throw bouts of fury, like, 14 times each episode. And each episode is only 5 minutes of story time!!!

The answer is no. The legal system lets us sue for anything. Thus, nothing is our responsibility now.

Must everyone stoop to blaming something or someone else?
People are too stupid to understand what responsibility and discipline is anymore. So the answer is yes.

Has self-esteem gotten so low that jealousy, resentment and rage are the only emotions kids can feel towards each other?
Children are some of the cruelist people on the planet. Thus the origin of the feelings. Thus, yes it has gotten so low.

Since when has it been acceptable to succumb to jealousy instead of being happy for someone, and then working to get the same thing for yourself?
This can be summed up into one word: Laziness

Can no one fess up and admit their own faults?
Nope. People are afraid to tarnish their reputation.

What happened to taking control, getting your life together, and make it better.
Laziness once more.

Wonderful post, War Child. You just saved me a ton of typing.

[Abaddon]

about small, non-fateful incidents, yes i understand that some people have a _lot_ of bucking up to do. i can't say im completely devoid of whinging about small things, but i'm doing a lot less of it.
Those who wallow in their self pity cannot be helped. No matter how much effort you may put into them, they will not budge unless they want to budge themselves too.

but sometimes you have to be upset about what's happened: Sometimes things cannot be changed. I know i can't bring back my brother from the dead, and while i have vowed to stay as strong as i possibly can, i have broken down..

if you want to know how sad my life is, it's pretty sad. When i come home from school i go directly to my 'cube or my computer, and stay on either one for at least 2 hours. I eat dinner, then i go right to playing pso or another game. I know it was all my fault i'm a huge gamer in the first place, and i wish i would actually do something to change my life. Its almost not possible to go up to me and say I have a good life-just not possible.

[Lman90245]

I have one word for all of you people who don't even know the inside jokes me and my friends come up with, oh well not my problem...

ahem.... WAFFLE!
