  • I thought I was going to have an appointment today.

    Why'd you think you had an appointment some place? What led you to believe that?

    I may have misheard 13 as 18 or my mind thought it was that number due to me having dyscalculia.

    When I talk to a person on the phone and a date for an appointment is the reason for the call, I ask that person to not hang up
    until I go over and mark the correct time and day on the calendar. I say again the time and day, for the person to verify. Then we're done with the call, after I've marked it on the calendar.
    I feel like everyone else can get into a romantic relationship whenever they want but I have all these obstacles that interfere with me.
    How can I take charge of my life?

    LIke your example of distancing yourself from prior threads you started--"if I get a notification I'll click unwatch." That right there is you taking charge of a little thing at a time. Whatever you are doing, keep it up! It's gonna be hard work but it's YOUR work & you are brave enough to do it.

    Also you are honest. That bit above--"Had no idea I would have to put in effort" -- That right there is what separates the men from the boys. You saying that is the No. 1 best thing you can do for yourself right now; you figured out something that many people never, ever do!

    take action and stop ruminating
    I don’t plan on posting in my old threads anymore. I will hit unwatch whenever I get a notification about them.

    I feel like they’ve either run their course or they have posts I don’t like so I don’t want to see them anymore.
    I don’t want to give up my dream of having a romantic partner.

    I really didn’t know there was any other way to express the feeling.

    Language is a useful thing for self expression. Some ways can be more useful than others.

    I’ve always had rough expressions presented to me in regards to achieving goals.
    I need to get out of the house.

    What do you mean? For a walk? Or move to live somewhere else?
    Markness
    Markness
    I needed a walk and some fresh air.

    Then go do that. Its a good idea, I try to do it everyday but im only like %50 consitant with my walks. Any exercise is better then none I guess.
    I don’t play any forum games because I just never think to do so.

    It’s too late now because I gave myself an ultimatum today.

    It sounds like you don't know what the Games on the forum are. You don't have to make a new Thread to play in a Game. Many of them are very easy/take minimal effort.

    Well, If you ever change your mind, you'll be a welcome addition. :)
    I had to wait for maybe 30 minutes before I could get out of a restaurant drive through.
    Markness
    Markness
    It took maybe 10 or more minutes to get to the ordering menu and the person working the intercom said they couldn’t take anymore orders for 10-15 minutes but I couldn’t just drive out because I was blocked in by other cars. I had to wait until the three in front of me drove away.

    Did you get any food?
    Markness
    Markness
    I didn’t there. I just went home and had a homemade sandwich.
    I don't want you to have a girlfriend. (for the time being)

    Dont expect a relationship to fix your metal health woes ard make you feel better. Ironically it might just result in the opposite. Relationships require a lot of time, energy and effort and typically need a individual that is at least somewhat independent and mentally healthy. You really should work on your outlook on life, attitude, mental health, fitness, financial situation and career goals etc... FIRST.

    Life isn't fair and complaining will solve nothing. We have given you advice but it seems that you either argue against it or just shuck it off. Remember this, if you've truly given up, then no one can help you and you've sealed your own fate.

    I agree that I need to address other aspects about my life. I thought today one would actually get addressed. I thought the appointment was this 13th but it’s for the 13th of June.
    I guess no one wants me to have a girlfriend. :(

    My guess is because 5 people liked tree's response to an earlier post he made. Thus, depressive over-generalisation assumed nobody wants him to have a gf.

    @Markness I don't say you shouldn't have a girlfriend. I say I wish you would stop telling yourself that everybody would celebrate if you died soon & friendless.
    Markness
    Markness
    @tree I get overwhelmed by negative thoughts because I am usually alone so that fuels my worries.
    Would anyone be sad if I died before I finally got a girlfriend?
    Markness
    Markness
    Yes, I feel that way. I just wondered if something bad happened to me what would the reaction from those who don’t like me would be.

    How often do you consider how something bad happening to you would affect those who do like you?
    Markness
    Markness
    I do think about that. One of my penpals has told me she would be sad and heartbroken.
    Some might ask why I don’t just work and study to move forward. Loneliness and not personally seeing progress makes me stay depressed.

    My motivation gets sabotaged and discouragement overwhelms me.
    I found out that I have a consultation at the health clinic tomorrow.

    I don’t think I am required to fast.

    It turns out I read the date wrong. It’s for the 13th of June.

    OK.
    13 June for the consultation at the clinic.

    And the 18th is still the endocrinologist??
    I am sad I always have to go to bed without someone who loves me being there with me. :(
