You gotta choose whether you let your situation change who you are or stubbornly remain who you are until that changes your situation. I'm still who I used to be in person, it's just my online behavior that changed. It's weird, the things I post are the things I'm feeling, but it's like that's not really who I am, like I take on a more negative personality online than in person, and I don't like that. TheCyborgNinja posted... The biggest problem with anxiety/depression is that almost everybody uses a "one-size fits all" approach when trying to help, which when it comes to mental health is a "fits virtually nobody" one instead. At least you've seemingly noticed negative behaviours, which is the best way to work through them. I have a horrible tendency to talk about myself a lot, though not in the same way, so maybe just try to break that cycle by only talking about things other than yourself on here for the next month, but try to participate as much as you can. Everything that has been trained, can be retrained. I haven't really talked much about myself recently, just a topic about my dad being a "celebrity" at the hospital, and ...kittens. :( I'm trying my best to get back to my old mindset. Firewood18 posted... I'll admit to wanting to tag you into that short PotD communal bathroom post only because I know what your job is. Everybody can be subject to a bit of parody. Whatever you write here ends up defining a persona. It doesn't have to be set in stone but trying to change it has to be sincere. The bullshit detectors run on high around here. I saw it, and was tempted to post in it, but felt it would be seen as attention whoring. Oh, a topic about a bathroom, I better post about being a janitor and cleaning bathrooms. lol SusanGreenEyes posted... KogaSteelfang posted... SusanGreenEyes posted... The only way your life will improve is if you move out of your parents' house. It's fine if you get a roommate. If you insist on staying there then there's no point to posting about how unhappy you are there. You just need to do it, instead of making excuses. Honestly you're a grown man and it doesn't matter how your parents feel about it. Dunno if it'll make any difference, but my mom, cousin, and myself are moving this week. At least until Spring next year. Of course I'll still be in a similar position, but maybe things will be better without my dad around constantly. What if you just leave by yourself and maybe get a roommate, as opposed to moving in with your family? I'm still looking for a place of my own that I can afford, but rent is going up for some reason. There's a house I fell in love with, it's surprisingly cheap, and is still on the market. If I knew how to get the money, I'd buy that place in a heartbeat. --- What did the pirate say on his 80th birthday? Aye Matey! <cite>KogaSteelfang posted [p:888941591] in You guys w...
