Sounds nice. Post some snaps

Trying to find words to describe my work colleagues and indicate how they conduct themselves that aren't profanities (just incase I decide to complain to management when they're with us next week).

It's a pain putting photos on here. Got some good ones from the summer but the hassle of uploading them on a different site and then putting them on here means they're just of Facebook. Might put some up when I have some spare time.

^ If you use Tapatalk you can just upload them without having to host them somewhere else.

How do I manage to accept the fact that the future holds bugger all for me?

*edit* The pessimist is really giving the optimist a good thrashing

You rescued a young bull just a few hours ago! If you were a waste of space that bull would still be there. Give yourself some credit for the good you've done today instead of dwelling on a future that doesn't exist.

Walking out of my job.

[Beep]

Danny! With his home that isn***8217;t on wheels, a job that he actually chose to do, hair combed with an actual comb and not just his fingers, and a man***8217;s chin, a real chin, one of them ones you could scoop ice cream with. What do I have? Odd socks and a watch that I wear despite the flat battery that died several months ago.

Thanks Omar
Just in case you think I'm super human - I did use a JCB to lift the bull out.
Have you had any relief from your tooth troubles yet?

are you saying I don't have a future?

That's even better!

I meant the future is an unknown. I'd have to be mental to go around telling people on a mental health forum that they didn't have a future.

My teeth are feeling okay, cheers. No pain as of yet...

[Rocket Spud]

Shoulda washed my hair today, gonna regret it tomorrow morning..

[Dandelion10]

Wanted to go see Limmy later this month but can't really afford it and no-one wants to go with me.

[Fantastical]

Got no one to go to Wales with. Forecast still looks better there than elsewhere in the UK as well.

Might be going to the Peak District with R as an alternative, but don't really fancy it.

I feel the biggest cause of my depressive state is my lack of social interaction.
Being depressed makes me even more socially inhibited which in turn makes me more depressed - I can't see a way out, med's don't do **** all, I have the social skills of a lettuce, my interests only appeal to sexagenarians, I've lost too much time now to ever be able to catch up.

I get told how lucky I am to still be living at home and own my tractors, my tools, etc. wtf!
Still living at home at thirty is not lucky, it's shit, it says I am unable to function well enough to survive on my own and as for owning all these things, that is all they are things, objects, pieces of metal - I'd put the lot in the skip now if it meant I could have a chance of happiness, to be loved and love someone, that's all I want, I can't take any more loneliness, I don't want riches, flashy cars, a mansion, just someone who cares.

[Professor Willow]

@flumpsy
You always seem to be able to turn even the shittest situation into something amusing, I'm now trying to imagine what lettuces get up to after dark

I probably shouldn't have posted that - I was having a head**** moment.

If I could implant some flumpsy humour, some rocket spud humour and some muggins thoughtfulness into David Ames body I'd be sorted
Oh and get purplerose to teach him how to bake cupcakes

[newbs16]

How much I hate living with ibs. At work, no reason to be anxious and now I need the toilet a million times

I definitely don't mind you ranting in here, I do it all the time!

It's hard still living at home and knowing you can't move out. I'm 26 and in the same situation.

Also now amusing myself by trying to imagine the social life of a lettuce...

[Olly.]

^^ Yeah, it sucks

Have you ever tried any medications?
I used to take Mebeverine which worked well for cramps, but I now use peppermint oil capsules (Colpermin), prefer natural things to synthetic drugs.

Hope it settles down

[Fantastical]

Don't think I'm going away at the weekend after all. Getting too last minute to sort anything out and it's just stressing me out.

Back up option of heading down to Sussex I think.

[purplerose]

I hate how everything makes me panic, like coming home just now I go into panic mode and got really hot because my mums home and has parked on the drive which means I can't get past to park at the bottom of the driveway and I don't want to park In the street as that means everyone can see me and im the worst at parking

[Fantastical]

^ And once you've started panicking about parking it normally goes horribly wrong.

Keep getting teased about being bad at parking, because I totally faffed up parking once with R and his brother in the the car - after driving for six and a half hours on my own from North Wales to Swanage, and then having to parallel park at midnight in a town I don't know with two blokes staring at me and laughing and telling me I'm bad at parking. Urgh.

[Professor Willow]

^/^^ luckily I'm not bad at parking, it's just the rest of driving that I'm no good at :/

[purplerose]

^^ yes that's true.
Aww no that's not good especially as it sounds like your normally good with parking ?


^ Thats fab that your not Bad at parking !


it makes it hard enough because I can't park and avoid doing so but the fact that I had to park in the street When I never have too As the bottom of the drive is my comfort zone and I rarely venture out into the street.
Even if I had the easiest place to park in the street I still wouldn't park there because people can see me and Id have to walk across the street to home ( I worry that neighbours will think I should be working as I look okay or what if they speak to me etc)

[Professor Willow]

^ I have a plan, you can chauffeur me around and then when we get to where we are going I can do the parking

As for your neighbours, it's none of their business whether you are working or not.

[Toxic]

All this driving talk

I can't really drive..or park

Luckily I work 5min away...I can park my car at home on the drive..and I work on a large industrial estate so I can just dump my car in any large open space really!

i could probably get better if I just went out and practiced but I haven't done any big boy parking since my driving test 3 years ago, never needed to, I can still misjudge throwing it into a bay, I really have no spacial awareness!

[Professor Willow]

I have been offered the chance to attend a speed awareness course instead of getting points on my license - still have to pay £110!
If I agree to attend but then for whatever reason (anxiety most likely) do not attend I will then still get the points and another £100 fine.

Don't know what to do for the best

[Silent Ninja]

^ What if you looked upon the course as not only a way to save the points but also a bit of an SA busting exercise?

[Professor Willow]

^ I think that's a very good idea
As usual i'd only looked at it from the negative side

I ordered some socks from eBay to pick up from Argos in May. They never turned up, so I informed the seller and waited 3 weeks, then asked for replacements to be sent to my work. Replacements arrived no problem.

I then ordered some socks from another seller for collection at Argos again, hoping it was bad luck. A few weeks later still no socks, so i messaged the seller who was nice enough to send more out. A few hours later I got a message from ebay saying my socks had arrived, so I messaged the seller saying not to send the replacements then went and collected them. Just as I got back into my shop, I got a message saying my socks were ready for collection, confused, I read through the message and realised it was the socks from May.

Now I have too many socks.
