I Am Tired of My Life..alcohol Is My Only Relief?

Question by mojo2509: i am tired of my life..alcohol is my only relief?
I am 21. College student. No friends. No girlfriend. Only people who care about me are my family(but they are far away from me). Spend all friday/saturday night home drinking beer alone. I am young and alone. I waste my life. Reason..Low self-esteem..Can’t stand up for myself..Fearful of everything..always nervous (especially in front of attractive girl). I wanna change myself. Every morning I tell myself so. I wanna change. I want to be fun to be around..I want to enjoy life..uh..for the rest of the day I feel awkward in front of my fellow students. I can’t make friends with an attitude I have right now. Moreover, English is my second language. I feel people are laughing in their minds when I make grammar mistakes. I feel terrible about myself. I try to convince myself that Iam a good guy. Everything is fine with me. But I can’t get rid of the feeling that people see me as a looser. I always worry what others think about me. I am a total wussy.
I would appreciate any inspirational advices (i’m in need of some)..Maybe I need to see a professional. Sad that a young guy in his 21 needs mental treatment((
I have no choice but to go see school counselor..i just want be myself..but I hate this freakin inner voice telling me “you are loser, you don’t worth anything” “what? you wanna go talk with that girl..screw that..you gonna look awkward.” tired of it.

I Am 27, What Am I Supposed to Do if Social Security Runs Out?

Question by we must stop the killing: I am 27, what am I supposed to do if social security runs out?
I don’t see myself making a ton of money. So if social security runs out what am I supposed to do? Be homeless? Starve? Shoot myself? I can’t work till I’m 100, my body most likely won’t let me.

Keep paying, soon the rate will increase and you can feel better. Every working person will eventually have to work till death to support the few that choose not to work. Vote the bums out.

Looking for Reassurance… Will the Psychiatric Treatment Center Help Me?

Question by Exhilarating, isn’t it?: Looking for reassurance… will the psychiatric treatment center help me?
I’ll keep this as short as possible. Due to abuse and other unfortunate events in my life I’ve developed anxiety, OCD, and depression. I tried battling this on my own for nearly two years. It’s done nothing but get worse. It is ruining my college classes, I can hardly function some days when I have a little girl to raise, I am mentally incapable of properly raising a kid in the condition im in, its ruining my relationships, and my future career as a nurse. It is ruining everything!

Ive been trying therapy (CBT) for months with little progress. Im too scared to take medication (one of my phobias) for fear they will make me worse because some have in the past. Im too afraid to take them on my own, especially when I have a kiddo with me.

“Rehab” by Amy Winehouse – Irresponsible?

Question by Proud Momma: “Rehab” by Amy Winehouse – irresponsible?
UGH! I can justsee it now. Someone REALLY NEEDS to go to rehab and they start singing her *!#*! song!

Having lived with an alcoholic drug abuser for years, I really HATE that song. The music behid the song is good, but the lyrics are completely irresponsible.
I have never heard of Amy before this song showed up on the radio…

And it’s just as bad as that song a few years ago about marijuana. I can’t remember how that one went.

What happened to good old love songs and such?

*sigh* we make too many allowances for music lyrics these days. All the stuff I hear I think “gosh, I don’t want my kid to hear this!”
I’m not saying it’s the music FAULT, but why make things worse? No wonder our morals in this country are eroding so fast. Our kids idolize these people, and we say it’s ok cuz it’s just music… etc.
