Author Topic: The vent.  (Read 2407 times)

I suggest scrolling down to read the bolder letters first then comming back to the start, alog side this is typed on a iPod so expect auto correct. If somthing doesn't make sense il be happy to explain it.

Listen, I'd like to start of a quote of "to much shine will dull the soul".
I find throughout the days it's better to keep low and let others destroy themselves or build them. But who cares those are the highs and lows in life.

As a child I remember I would wake up and be social awkward with kids, I was brought up as a independent kid, who had a brother to play with. I never was popular in school, when grade 4 hit my life turned. The kid who went home everyday to play the sims and roller coaster tycoon 2 met people who beaked me a lot. As a younger age and no one to turn to, I couldn't figure out why they would do such things. Later on in life I realize that all majority of kids to trough smiled experiences. But I found mine to be different. My dad was always away from home, and my views on him degraded for each vist home he would do somthing to disaplin me and my brother for my mother never did much because we kept out of her way. I feel bad as a grow older to realize how much ignorance I had st that age for all he wanted to do was spend time with me and my brother because he never really had a dad who was there for him. Guys if I start to not make scenes I'm sorry but I'm not in the best mood. To continue on, kids would make fun of my constantly, added on top of my family life I was a socially awkward sad kid who could break easy. A personal experience I could remember clearly is anonymous yelled hey friend and threw his bag at me, as I said before I broke easy and couldn't cope to understand what I did to him. It turns out he didn't like the way I looked and I slowly became self concious of my self. I would wake up eddy day in the mirror of dread of what could potentially become of that day. This continued to about grade 7-8ish until I slowly changed my act and how I looked and dressed. 9th grade is when I got affiliated with drugs more and I'm not sure if gone down the right path for my daways stresses about what I'm doing with my life, yet for some reason ik I have valid points when I argue. Anyways this is all over.

Long story short to sum this section up, I feel horrible about my childhood because I missed a lot of experiences I wish I could've been to, along side me feeling bad for the way I treated my dad in those years. I wish I could go back and talk one on one with myself and show me the path, but I'm sure everyone wishes they could do that.

Grade 8 is my first "love" we could say, I thought I loved her, I spent almost every second I could with her,  I'd love to see her laugh and the nights were we would blaze in the park at 2 am then go back to her house and talk and cuddle is what I missed the most about her, but she showed me that nothing gold can stay because she cheated on me halfway through the year, iforgave because I was stupid then. I got burnt again and fell into my depression. This was the start of it, throughout that year barreling with depression I remember getting rushed to the ER in a police escort because I was close to suicde. I was there for 9 hours on a bed starring at the ceiling waiting for a docter. I apricots now what my mom did for me for I'm glad I didn't commit, life is to short for that. I was so close to death it's hard to comprehend in my mind.

My most recent great sadness was when I realized someone who had the same iterests in me, same sports and general attitude, someone who I spent time into writing conversations for and staying up until 2-3 am just to talk, lead me on. It's sad to see someone like that go, or to get friend zoned such as I did.

Anyways forum that was a short vent of mine, I'm sure I could go on and on, but I'm not in the best mood now, feel free to read whatever you want though, I made this mainly to get the thoughts out and to have a written piece so I can browse through it when I talk to my friend tomorow.

I was always a pretty quiet person IRL, didnt have much friends, and basically used the computer as an escape when I was a kid. My dad is an alcoholic was really annoying at the time. in HS I had a GF for 3 years and it carried over into CC. When I transferred to a uni it was still in Seattle (UW!) so it worked out. When my GF was able to transfer she was able to get into a great school back east so we decided that it would be best to break it off because long distance relationships suck ass. Now that I'm older and live on my own the computer addiction has definitely carried over. Used/use a fair amount of drugs though all psychedelic and harmless ones and not very frequently (couple times a month or more spaced out). But yeah, I have some friends from school and am doing good. Good luck OP just remember that its not always a good idea to escape your current situation through drugs/computer/etc.

I'm one of those people who are like what you said: "I was a socially awkward sad kid who could break easy." I have close to no friends. There's probably about 3 that I can tolerate, everyone else is eh. When my brother gets mad at me for the stupidest things (seriously, he punched me multiple times for taking the last soda in the fridge o_o) he'd constantly say things like "Go kill yourself, cigarette!" or "Wow, hang yourself. Nobody loves you and you have no friends." My teachers would all say things (to the entire class) about how most of the people in the class were failing. Each grading period I'd bring home maybe 1 D at most, and I had 1 F once. My mom said to get it together or I'd fail my grade. I'd return to school, continuously hear the same things: "Looks like every-single-one of you want to stay in 8th grade for an extra year!" That got to me, considering the fact I heard it close to everyday. "Oh man, I guess I'm not going to pass the 8th grade. Whoopie!" I'm a very "self-conscious" person, and one day on the way to school, all that stuff just got in my head. I started looking back to all the times someone has told me things that were offensive and when someone would call me things like "gay", "cigarette", "nerd", etc (like I said, I get offended easily..). I just sat there in the car and didn't get out at school or anything. My mom was yelling for me to get out and my brother was too. I just sat there thinking, "Hah, I guess they're all right. I guess I don't have any friends. I don't amount to anything." Looking back at all of that, I feel like a major pusillanimous individual lol.

stuff gets to you. Just don't pay attention to it.

I apricots now what my mom did for me for I'm glad I didn't commit, life is to short for that. I was so close to death it's hard to comprehend in my mind.
Autocorrect sucks lol

I used to be a Socially Awkward kid who would be hurt easily

Now im a Socially Awkward kid who IF YOU forget WITH HE WILL RIP YOUR HEAD OFF.

yep.

The Lesson? Be bigger than everyone else. Literally.

And if you think about it, every experience you have ever... experienced made you who you are now. If you were to change those experiences, you would change yourself. I mean sure I hated elementary school but that hate and resentment made me who I am today. A wonderful person who doesn't take stuff from anyone.

I was never socially awkward as a kid, and couldn't stop talking. All the boys in elementary couldn't loving stand me and told me to "SHUT THE forget UP" daily. Most of my friends were girls. It's changed now and gotten better for me, except.. I TALK EVEN MORE..

I was almost in tears until the apricots bit.

I'm in a new school now and there are loads of starfishs in it, haha!

It doesn't matter how big you are. Guns kill all shapes and sizes.

I strongly agree. The way I delt with bullies is to forget them up if they tried stuff. Doing this allowed me to not have to worry about them and have space to make friends.

Compared to this, I've had it pretty easy tbh. I've never really had any bullies except this one richard in primary school who wrestled me to the ground because I was in front of him in line to the assembly. I've sometimes felt depressed about my friends and school life, but It wasn't the suicidal or self harming type of depression. The first four years of my life were mainly memories of my parents arguing, but I had a better experience of it than my sister; she was alone for four years having to put up with the arguing, and another four with me. Today, she regularly smokes, sometimes smokes weed, has failed her A levels and is a total bitch most of the time, although I sometimes feel sorry for her.

I hope everything is ok soon OP

I know how you feel, although not so much the bullying part. I tended to somehow end up on everyone's good side, including the bullies, to the point where if someone would pick on me (which one kid did) he almost ended up in a fight with the bully for it and it never happened again (this happened when I lived in a ghetto).

My life has been in shambles although I never started using drugs mainly because I haven't got the slightest idea of where to get them and too shy to actually go out and ask someone I think would use them. I am currently close to Self Delete and trying to get my life turned around to no avail so far. I recently lost most of my friends when they had enough of me using them to vent. My childhood was fine up until 5th grade, we were homeless and moving from place to place so I never really made any friends until 9th grade, then I found my own group of friends that sadly has mostly stopped talking to me as none of them know what to do with someone in a situation like mine.

Regardless, I know exactly how you feel OP and hope you can get out of whatever emotional distress you're in now, that'd make one of us capable of it.

Auto-correct really can be amusing.

my first "love" we could say, I thought I loved her, I spent almost every second I could with her but she showed me that nothing gold can stay because she cheated on me halfway through the year
This happened to me, and it's awful, and like you I forgave her and she did the exact same thing again. I got over it but even now i'm worried about being betrayed like that again, it's probably the reason why I don't get involved with relationships anymore. Oh and to make you feel like you situation isn't the worst that's ever happened she pretty much left me for my brother.

But yeah, I hope everything improves for you :c

this describes me quite well

I'm suicidal and I'm afraid to tell anyone. If I do people will either not take me seriously or send me to the hospital or something, and if I tell anyone I fear that it will burden them too much with what I say, I know my dads buisness isn't doing to well and that my mom will immediately call 911. I don't want the entire medical staff giving me bunny rabbits and medicating me to the point of comatose, and I hate being dismissed because I generally try to fit the role of care free happy guy.

A while ago I had a full on mental breakdown, where I was crying my eyes out and biting my arm to the point of bleeding. My Dad then decided to put me on Self Delete watch, not even trying to help other than just saying "Don't close your door". He proceeded to watch TV in the living room for the rest of the night.

sorry Thomson

I'm sort of the same I only just the other day started wanting to tell my parents though

I'm sure I won't I already get enough trouble for stuff I don't need more

Get help, I was stupid and decided not to and now it really doesn't help so I stopped, but back when I outright refused it when it could have helped. Whatever burden you think might be put on someone for telling them, imagine 50x that burden if you kill yourself. Self Delete is not to be viewed as you just dying, it's preventable and the people around you will take it upon themselves for the reason you did it. You can't imagine the feeling you get from thinking you killed someone like your best friend or brother, for example. In the case of your dad, he more than likely assumed you would speak up if you wanted any help, some people just like to be alone and he wanted to make sure you didn't do anything stupid in case he was wrong.
