The news has been sad...I feel sad...I need advice

Thu Jan 13, 2011 6:20 am » by **Willbraham**

Hey guys,

I'm feeling really depressed lately. The news and everything has really upset me; Tuscon shooting, Australia's flooding, Divided country, the wars, stupid Nancy Grace and her child kidnappings, the constant pessimism, etc, etc. etc...

I was just hoping that someone had some advice for me...I know that many will say turn off the tv, but even with the idiot box put away, my mind still races on the reality of our situation...It's hard finding comfort in the MATRIX, because everyone is so into themselves and consuming and getting effed up...

I really just want to find something that I can dedicate myself to, and knowing that what I'm doing is helping people in the right way.

If anyone has any advice to help keep my depression at bay, or to ease the mental calamity it makes me feel.

I feel like crying because I don't know what I can do to help...myself or anyone else.

I don't know...I guess this was just me reaching out for some help.

I really do hope all of you are happy, loved and loving, feel safe, feel needed, and smile without feeling jaded.

Peace be with all of you.

Thanks for forum MODS. You're all great.

Comedy has such an astounding quality to bring laughter to even the most abysmal circumstance...hope this brightens you up a little bit bud.

willbraham,
Chin up and move foreward. Not too much we can do to control, what we can't control. Stay positive and focus on you and yours'. Look after number one, cause if you don't all else is irrelevant

I recently bought a second hand 60 kph rc car im in the process of repairing.. i find it most soothing to crack a beer and sit down and keep at it then in the summer ill rip the dirt up . keeps me buisy and motivated . oh and poker ..taking someones money legally is always a spirit lifter :flop:
