I'm in a bad mood... - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

MrCleveland · 07-10-2018, 04:34 PM

I've been depressed all this week.

First...I was supposed to be with my brother today so that we can see what we can do with my future...but he bailed on me since he's sick.

Second...I was hoping to get a house, but my boss says in Lakewood "It's easier said than done". And since I only have $5K in the savings...I dunno if I can buy a house in a decent area in Old Brooklyn.

Third...my job coach insisted that I get a photograph job...it's on a bus line, but with this job I HAVE to have a car!

And...I saw the one I call Catlady who used to be my neighbor up front...a few weeks ago, she had the gall to take pictures on how bad the conditions in the yard were, that *****! If she moves back in, I'm moving out!

But...the only place I can afford is...living with my old man! I love him, but there's a few things that need to be fixed there. Like the plumbing, the heater, and having a hot water tank. Also, I'll have to kiss all my possessions goodbye because he said "I can't take all of it and I have to leave some things behind"!

I feel that I have NO purpose in life...**** Rick Warren! Everytime I ask for help, the world says "help yourself"! I hate my life! And I'm just about to see a gypsy/fortune teller on why this is happening?

Maybe I should read that book again...but I've read it more than once and it did nothing for me!

Mr. Cleveland, I can't stay on long and post a lot right now but real quick just want to let you know I care for you and feel bad that you are upset,

and you are in my prayers!

It's no shame for Christians to wish to better themselves materially as long as they don't walk over others in the process. I do feel that the competitive element now has become far too fierce and has led to many of the social problems which beset Western societies today.

I see that the book you quote is for sale at £2.80 at World of Books.

Find a way to make a living. Do what you’re good at, even if it doesn’t make you happy. I know they always say to do what you love for a living, but most of us can’t. No more hemming and hawing, do that job that you can do and take pride in doing it well. I know you want to do some internet show or something like that, but now’s the time to just work. I don’t know your age, but if you’re over 35 it’s time to just work. Do what you love outside of work. The perfect job is not usually out there.

Guaranteed that they will see you're a desperate "easy mark" and will milk you for everything you've got.

MrCleveland · 07-11-2018, 07:28 AM

Today, I go for a job interview that I was insisted to do. I can't say "no" since no one takes it literally...it looks like I have to have a car, what am I gonna tell the guy in the interview since I'm carless?

Also...The Cleveland Idiots lost to the Cincinnati Reds despite being in the lead!

I'll be talking to my psychologist tomorrow...

Can't you stay with your brother and get a new house?

Well...

...things today got better. My brother is having me look at cars and a house next week. I had interest in a few...mostly Chevrolet, Mitsubishi, Nissan, and Hyundai.

How good are Nissan's and Mitsubishi's?

Don't have an answer for you about cars but glad to know things are looking up for you.

Mitsubishi's:

Good chasis and suspension. Even, it eats a lot of money to maintain.

Nissan's:

It pains me to say it, but you can't go wrong with a German or a Japanese car.

MrCleveland · 07-18-2018, 09:26 PM

I'll still get a car...but I'm shaky since I haven't been driving for 6 years...I'm nervous.

I'm the one in my family that has been pushed-back for many things in life even though I'm the oldest...and right now...I feel that I'll never have a wife or family...I'll always have a loveless life....

Sometimes when I'm in a bad mood, I get mad. Other times like now...I get sad...isn't being sad part of being in a bad mood?

Steve_uk · 07-19-2018, 01:18 PM

Well I suppose sadness is a part of life. I once took St. John's Wort but decided I didn't like the feeling of imposed happiness which some central nervous system stimulants can induce. Far better to try to address the root of the problem, though this is easier said than done.
