No offense, but Physician, heal thyself?
Just messing with you
God did not give you responsibilty for all around you. And some people do not want your help or advice no matter how much you want to help.
I suppose, as long as you and your family got things in control, it is good for you to offer help.
Even Jesus knew when to let people go their own way.
Probably more pain and suffering going on than even you can imagine.
Every second of every day all over this world. Not sure how you can fix it. I daresay you could literally devote every moment of your existence from birth to your death at, say the age of one thousand, and your efforts would not amount to a water molecule in the world's oceans. That is just the way it is. It is a wonder humans still keep going.
Just responding because.
Are you in search of happiness? Gave up? Just curious.
Well,...this won't be easy, but as it is help that I seek, I'll do what marky said and just be honest.
Most of what I type is just fluff, hoping that anyone will respond.
Why ?
Because I have been sad to the point of crying myself to sleep since I was very young.
I'm completely shattered and broken inside and feel utterly and completely hopeless that I can find my way through this.
I used to want to be able to function for myself. Now my wife is pulling more than she should.
It has left me incapacitated mentally.
I gave up when I left here four years ago.
For whatever reason I stayed physically in this torment for four years.
I didn't even lurk!
Just stopped by at Christmas and New year's to say hello to that digital brother.
Leaving here because I couldn't tolerate bullies! that came along with the help.
Almost ended myself over it.
I can't help that I can't learn certain things to save my own life!
Yeah..I gave up..but because of that eidetic memory that I am cursed/blessed with... I remembered the kindness of relatively random strangers here and I told myself...it
is better than the alternative!
I'm not actually looking for anyone.
This engagement of my mind is a critically important therapy for me.
I've no other option than seek out the one person who truly understands me!
He has many furry critter friends who all but worship his knowledge base!
I miss him dearly.
Happiness is an elusive unicorn!
I'd gouge out my own eyes if I believed for even a second that it would bring me happiness.
I'm not delusional.
