It has been a very gloomy birthday.
Freedompath comments on Mar 10, 2018:
First, I would like to say, you need some kind words today...the birthday may not matter all that much as a day, but your loneliness does. Your picture tells me, that you want to matter to others (and you do), but the most important person that you need to matter to, is yourself! I read your ...
Freedompath replies on Mar 11, 2018:
@Ceaselessmind then stop being that clown! At least not a clown...to hide behind! Now, if you are using it to bring cheer to others and to yourself...that is worth something! I think that you need to find out from, 'mr self'...if he is trying to buy what he needs from others? Even trying to impress others...will soon backfire, I bet that is not news to you? You deserve all that you desire, because that is what you (we) were made to do. I realize that you have a specific situation that I have not faced, but even I have had to 'claw' my way to 'meaning!' And from what I have studied and observed, a lot of people have faced this delimma! You need to do everything on purpose (with conscious thought) and see where it takes you. AND, don't give up, when you fail, because you will, sometimes! Focus on what supports your nature...And, what will happen in time is... you will find out what does and does not work for YOU. There is someplace that your 'gifts' (your personal attributes), are needed and appreciated. We have a need to give and receive...that is when we are fullfilled. You may not quiet grasp this idea, but as you grow into your 'true' nature...that is where your 'true' strength lies. I wonder if you have read, Rudyard Kipling's poem...'If' ? I kept a copy to refer to...I would find it and put it here, but I am in the middle of that move! Best to you, and keep posting...

Why is depression so complicated?

This is not going to be a popular answer but DRUGS! Mild depression, perhaps can be helped with therapy, exercise, oils, etc. But major depression? Clinical depression? Drugs. There’s no getting out of it any other way except suicide.

@Marcie1974 yes, we wouldn't want anyone to give up, when they haven't 'overturned every stone,' like some of us have had to do!!!

When I was your age, I hadmy best years ahead of me. My most productive time was from the age of 40 - 60 and I loved those times and the friendships they afforded. Even at the age of 81 and with increasing health concerns, I do not feel the malaise you express.

I tend to get very depressed at my birthdays too. It seems like a reminder of how little I've accomplished in life. Not many people even acknowledge my birthday unless they get a reminder from Facebook (which is a bit lame). I can't really remember having a "happy" birthday anytime in my adult life....
Freedompath replies on Mar 10, 2018:
@Charles1971...it made me sad, when you posted that you have never had a happy birthday as an adult. Do you have some happy days along the way, I sure hope so? I am not into birthdays, as much as most people. I may give something special to my friends or family, during the year, but I have difficulty remembering their birthdays! I have come to accept it, for what it is...it has nothing to do with my love and affection for any of them! So, from me to you...happy birthday to you, whenever it was!

@Marcie...suicide does happen with depression and at one point, I was afraid I might be one. But, if a person keeps working through those tormented thoughts, there is a light at the end of the tunnel.

I surely want to tackle this problem with you. I have 5 children...all 54-62. Now, you have every right to be crushed!

Freedompath replies on Mar 10, 2018:
@Shawappa44820 ...when I made my statement about control, this is what I was referring to...things that you have no control over, your child's mother's behavior, complete control with things surrounding your son and even the world at large! Life itself can seem to overtake us and out of our control...because it most cases it is! (I don't know if you are an over controlling person, or not.) If you can't work with his mother, please refrain from disparaging comments about your son's mother. He is part of his mother and children take bad/good comments about their parents on, as something about them, too. Since my children's Dad, was a raging alcoholic, it was easy to want to tear him to bits, when they reported back to me, what went on at his house. But, most of the time, I caught myself and worked it out in my own mind. It is not easy to being an 'other home' parent, and especially thru the teenage years, which are the hardest of all. But, how you handle yourself now, will be the example for your son, to draw strength from, and believe me, that is important! Since my parenting skills sucked, I did work hard to keep my head on straight and I know (they told me so, as adults) it made a difference. Because, my children had tough times growing up. I am so sorry about your possession...that came from your mom...that you sacrificed for your son. It was a loving act, from both your mother and on your part... and that is lasting, it is strange how we view an object that is from a loved one. I am having to get rid of stuff from my children, because I want to get down to few things, but it is almost making me sick. (I have already done that with my mother's, things, she died 10 yrs ago). The best advice that I can give you or anyone is...learn to be with your 'hard' feelings! They can only destroy us, if you let them, but they can often times hurt us at our deepest level, too...but, in the end we come out stronger! So, as soon as you possibly can, pick your self back up and figure out what you can do that will make the situation better. That is what each of us have had to do, if you want to live in this world. You are only alone, in your mind with the 'hard' work. Others will reach out to you, if you ask...

It looks like people are more insistant if they are not fully vested into their own believing. Because, once a person embraces their truth, they seem to care less, whether others, see it their way or not. They may even be more tolerant of others different view points.
Freedompath replies on Mar 9, 2018:
@mordant I know that I have spent a big portion of my life, defending, pushing back, setting the record straight with the 'nutty' people and trying to educate. But, in last few years, I am drawing back and if abuse comes my way...I remove myself. Now, if I see someone mistreating another person, I will step up, otherwise I will keep my distance, except for respectful, regard! With most religious people it seems too much a 'battle of wills'...instead of bringing out some helpful insight! I can use that energy more productively, elsewhere!

@jorj just in case this interest you, I just heard a lecture on IQ test and it says that an average below 90, is 30% of the population. We need at least 115 to make a good college student. I point this out, because it occurred to me that it must be very difficult, trying to convince people on the low spectrum scale, complex ideas. They are just not equipped to analyze complex problems. I think we should make sure we understand issues, and not get to overwrought if a lot of other people see issues different. In some cases, I can see where I would be wasting precious energy! (This is just something i gleaned from this IQ lecture, tonight.) A point that I might make, is mental illness, can be found in any family. Columbine students came from families of professionals! One couple got divorced afterwards and she (college professor) is speaking on Ted Talks. I have no other information on the other family.

@jorj from your post, it seems like you sincerely want to learn and understand things, but you are dismissing your most valuable source by not studing your own feelings and where/how they developed. Real power, comes when we know ourselves, as fully as possible. And this holds true no matter, what side of the Isle we are on. This takes time and work, but overtime, it will pay great dividends.

@jorj but what about my first 50 yrs of life, when we did not have guns in every household and we had single mothers and father's all over the place? You just totally, overlooked the Atlanta area, consisting of millions and millions of people (28 yrs ago).? No one went into a school and shot it up (there were some work place shoot-ups)! This 'shoot-up' situation, has increased since the NRA, began pushing the 'love of your 2nd amendment gun issue!'

@aussj4link I had several of those intense, 'love' attraction experiences in my life, but I would not call that the death of love. Nor, do I call that the real kind of love. When I think of love...

@jorj well, that is the difference in how you and I take in information. Culturally, areas are a little different, but human behavior is the same. Children from the time of my children's generation, are scattered out all over the country, now. Lots of them were divorced, or came from divorced homes. None of them shot up any place! I am very familiar with the whole of the Atlanta area, which has a wide range of socioeconomic people. And I cannot recall a single 'shoot up,' and there are lots of divorced people in that area! You can trust me on that. I never judge the 'whole', by a few! We all have a small microcosm of a social order, in our own back yard. Human behavior, is the same...we just have different stressor, that trigger certain behaviors. When the anthologist, Richard Leaky, first started studing the ancient sculls, he found no evidence of violence in them. But, information was soon adjusted...as there was indeed cracked skulls, created from blows to the head. I can report, that in my first 50 years, it was robbers, family violence and now in then a shoot out with police! There were no mass shootings! And, I am/was, out and about in this country! That is just me paying attention.

@jorj none of my 5 children are criminals and their father and I divorced when they were preteens and their father was severely alcoholic. The reason my children went to several different schools, is because they would live with me and sometimes with their dad...at dad's house they kinda ran wild! Thank god nobody had guns, because it was a volatile place. I was struggling with part time jobs, trying to make ends meet, and was pretty much disconnected. But, we never had school shootings or any other kinds of shootings!

@dahermit I am 78...I cannot remember a school shooting before 25 yrs ago. I can't ever remember a person with a gun that shot another kid at school...not in my childhood and there was not any when all 5 of my children went to several different school! One of my oldest son's classmate, who was a doctor and our mayor here, shot and killed himself in his home office, about 3 years ago. He loved guns! Had a collection! I do not trust people 100% who own a gun! And, I must inform you that I am still doing the same thing that I have done for 30 years...traveling all around this country alone without a gun and I never once had an encounter that put me in danger! I am not fearful of my fellowman. And, I have stories in my family of gun violence and if you are interested I have already written about them! People have accidents in all kinds of ways and die. I don't care about stats! I know behaviors and if you started right now, you would not cure all the mentally ill people in this country.

Studies have shown that the cost of living keeps rising, but the minimum wage stays low. I believe that it is $7.25 an hour nationally (here in Nevada it is $8.25).

@LadyAlyxandrea I am so sorry, that you have this painful challege to deal with. I can tell you that I have no rotor-cuffs, they both have been repaired and came back out! So now I would need replacement joints in both shoulders. My neck is still out and somewhat stiff. But, I have no pain. And none of that depression that I had for last 30 years. I wish everyone had my luck, because pain can be a distraction from living. I did have a lot of psychotherapy over the years and I would think that it gave me a hand up. There is also a lot of pain, in my family, so we may have a predisposition to something, that has never been diagnosed! I would like to say, don't give up and work with what you have going for you at this moment. You are still, a person with talents and skills and hopes and dreams. Stay connected to them as that is 'who' you are...it is easy to fall into the belief, that you are your pain. My, 95 yr old neighbor, who had a very painful knee and heart problems, that prevented having surgery...was always saying, we 'must do stuff, that will distract us from our pain' I found the same thing to be true. Live your life, not your pain...you have a purpose to fullfill, regardless of your body...best of luck and keep posting!

No offense to 'looney bins!' Trump, is not 'normal!' Which is an understatement! Not to mention we ended up with a whole 'family,' of them!!!
This happened just the other day.

Most of the posters here just don't get it. When you shoot at someone they don't come back. This dirt bag came back. She should not have let him get close enough to take her gun. The daughter should have finished him off. He must have been on drugs to come back.

@NFAguy53... I don't appreciate the insult! Throwing 'dirt' at people is not creative and showed how much you care about keeping people from killing one another! I AM NOT A LIBERAL!

@AtlGeekWoman ...if you are a parent, would you show up at a PTA meeting, easily sharing your 'swinging' life style? Feeling proud about your lifestyle? If not, then it is out of the norm of our society, then that forces us to hide a part of ourselves. Ofcourse, we must all live up to our own moral and ethical standards. That is something that has been tested out in good mental health no matter what therapeutic discipline you consult. I have no more proof that 'swinging' as a lifestyle is coercive to our mental health than you have otherwise. But, the proof is in the overall development of a human being over time. My assessment of addiction may clearly be in opposition to your assessment. But, I do have years of people around me with sex addictions and many others and how any addiction plays out in a person's life over time.

@AtlGeekWoman...to begin with...it is not a 'norm' in this society (so negatively, effects self respect). Second, we must eat to survive...and yet we have food additions. This effects physical and emotional wellbeing. Sex, is a powerful force...like food...it too...can become an addiction. If a person has a mate that they have sex with, why would they need more sex...than what that mate can provide? Plus the mate is parceled out, as well. Then it stands to reason...that it is the pursuit of the sex itself ...camouflaged by a set of agreeable rules (but is it). Living is not all sex. We do not even need sex to survive. Sex is only a part of a bigger picture...there is still...providing for self and a mate and maybe children and then society. Otherwise, you may be stranded from the 'whole'...from self/mate or possibly society. That is what addiction does, it becomes 'the leader'...we are compelled to follow our leader and not our authentic nature...which for the majority of people must be developed over time. Living from any lie, cannot bring us to our higher nature.
