that works too  ;D

chill a little, i think.
not everything or anyone has to be perfect.

so yeah, Hashem kept you alive today, and He's waiting to see what you're going to do with that life.
but isn't that a whole lot of pressure for someone who's suicidal?
ya know what i'd say?
yeah, well then if i waste today then maybe he won't give me a tomorrow...

not good.

relax a bit. smile. life's good. do what you can to serve Hashem, go out of your way for mitzvos, but Hashem knows w're human.

I have cutie kids.

I have a wife.

I love shnitzel, but it's not for supper. (BTW, I could eat shnitzel every day!)

That's my positive statements for the day??? I was thinking I need to say something more substantial, like "G-d loves me, regardless" and "If G-d kept me alive today He must believe in me even thought I don't".

That is substantial. Yes what you wrote about G-d is true but lets start off slowly. Get off that 18 wheeler and get on a trycycle, is what Dov would say. Anything positive is substantal, cuz thats what your working on.

Think about , although you have so many hard times during the day, whats waiting for you at home. Everyone knows thers nothing like a child looking up at you and smiling, especially when that child is yours.


Wow, heavy stuff. Food for thought.

Of course I'm a perfectionist.

You pinned me down 100%. That's why I like it when you post b/c I know you understand what's inside my head.  

Your words are wise. 7up's right, you are wise beyond your years.

Thanks,
good nite

Why does everyone else get sympathy and chizuk responses and I don't:


Momo, I think it might be the way you smell. Do you take showers at all? Maybe you should try deodorant.

Ok, now for a more serious answer. I think it might have to do with what Imtrying25 said, Uri explains what he's feeling, so we can answer him better. You just wrote "I HATE MY LIFE!". And although the color and size of that was impressive, we couldn't do much more than offer a joke or two to show we care and are there for you...

On the other hand, Uri wrote yesterday:


I am having a very hard time now that I am letting go of control and I am feeling alot of pain and fear and insecurity.
I am,unfortuantely,lashing out at the only people who can actualy help me out of fear of trust and love,and feel the urge to run from everything constantly.
I have been attempting to take control of my fears and life and it is getting me nowhere as usual,just hurting me.
I have been resisting the control of authority on all fronts(as usual) and I will try to behave better in the future.


And also:


is rav shlachter right about all this???
im letting go of control but i dont find any trust coming in.
and im afraid of trying to get trust from pple cause that's "control"
am i not understanding something?
all that's happened is that my gaava is increasing like crazy,i keep thinking i have all the answers,i take on all these cases,im mean to pple im close to,and i desperately desire a woman to be with.
i thought i was on the path of recovery.
instead i just make myself sick.


There's a lot of good questions there to address...

(but I still think it might be the smell too, a little. No chevra?   ;D )

OK, this isn't expressive as Uri's, but it expresses how I feel in a different way.
This time I made an effort for it to rhyme, as Uri requested.
I don't care if you like it or not. I think it's brilliant.

Sung as a rap song (think Eminem).

I'm just a dog
Lying on the ground
Covered with fleas
Playing with my chewed up bone, if you please

Too tired to get up
I don't even know how
Lying on the ground crying bow wow wow

I feel your kicks upon my side
I open myself up to you
I've got nothing to hide

Except nobody's kicking me
Not even a tap
The only pain I feel
Is self inflicted


(OK, the last part doesn't rhyme. It's called poetic license!)

I lie all day wishing for someone help me
Laying and waiting, waiting and laying
I expect someone or something to come to my rescue
Not realizing that the answer is within me and not you.
Yeh, Yeh.

Momo,
Nobody posts in my thread either (unless it's about ice cream or sushi). It's a bit depressing sometimes, but I'm used to it. I think the reason is that I don't really post much in the way of questions ASKING for advice. I just post my count (what day I'm on) and hardly anything else. I just don't have much to say most of the time. I think if you ask questions which people have (or think they have) the answers to, you will get a response. For example, try asking why nobody posts anything in your thread except for ice cream and sushi jokes.

That was a great poem Momo, but you need to put a question mark at the end so we have some question to address

hi, momo.
here's a story that i heard before Y"K.
remind me of you...

one time there was a young boy. he was 20 years old. it was right before purim and his parents asked him not to get drunk. they warned him of the dangers and cautioned him not to hurt himself.

but the boy had bad friends.

he got a little high, a little drunk, and then stoned, and after a while, he couldn't even walk straight anymore. he tried to stumble homeward but he couldn't even see straight. he fell in a pile of mud and didn't even know which street he was on anymore. he tried to get up but after a few more drunken steps he fell and scraped himself.
he lost hope and soon fell into a drunken stupor in a soft pile of garbage bags in a dark alleyway.

when he woke up, he didn't know how many hours had passed or even if it was already the next day or a few days later. he looked at his surroundings, at his filth encrusted clothes and at his bloodied arms and legs.

he was scared to go home
he was scared his parents wouldn't let him in
that they wouldn't love him anymore
that they would scream in horror
that they would chase him away

but he had nowhere else to go
his parents were his only hope

so he walked home

he almost didn't even knock. his bloody hand as he raised it to the door knocker only bore further witness of his betrayal. but he knocked anyway.

when his parents opened the door they opened their arms and the boy began to cry.
"Totty, Mommy- i'm home" he sobbed

they looked away from his injuries, his foul smell and his soiled clothes.
they hugged their son and said
"we're so happy you made the effort to come home. we will help you
you will be clean again
we will give you new clothes
we will repair our relationship
we love you."
I am proud of myself today because of who I am becoming with progress, not perfection
one day at a time
I am a pickle, and I'll never be a cucumber again. and pickles are YUM!
