everyone seems so miserable now

Are you talking about MLP or just the planet in general?

@Klonoahedgehog
 
it can really apply to both :P

I am not miserable.  
I have the time of my life right now.

I am VERY miserable right now, even more so than I have been. I don’t even feel like going outside or even getting out of bed. My appetite is so low I have eaten the same amount of food in a week that I usually do in a day. I can barely sleep and when I do get to sleep it is a very light sleep. I’m so upset I feel like throwing up sometimes. And now I am starting school soon and I don’t even think I will be able to concentrate and thus will fail. I feel like I was hit by a train.

Welcome to the 21st century, an era when NOTHING is worth looking forward to anymore.

@SeraphimDawn  
I disagree. The world is a wonderful and incredible place, there’s a lot to see and do out there. What makes the world suck so bad what we humans do to it…and each other.

@SeraphimDawn  
Sorry that you see it that way.  
I think that there is good in this world. Something to live for.  
It may sound cliche and naive, but i believe in these things

@someguy111  
You call overpopulation, economic crisis, bureaucratic stupidity of epic proportion, loss of freedom, moral degradation, and ridiculously high expectations things to be worth look about?

@King Sombra  
The real world can be horrible sometimes. It’s nice to remain optimistic and to try to keep your head up but sometimes it’s almost impossible especially when the very things that keep you optimistic and motivated are ripped away from you and you are left a devastated hollowed shell of a human being.

@SeraphimDawn  
Every single one of those things is the cause of mankind. The world itself is beautiful beyond words. It’s such a shame the we humans have to be such disgustingly evil creatures.

@someguy111  
Its not just human beings nor this world.
 
Maybe the universe.

@someguy111  
My entire world in a nutshell.
 
 
Sometimes it feels like the only thing i can look forward too these days is my first love, Pokemon.

@someguy111  
Hey it’s okay man. I know how you feel.  
But it’s no use to hang your head low and stay sad like that. If we all do that, then this World will really turn to shit.

@King Sombra  
I agree with you 100%.  
If all people want to focus on is the bad stuff, what the hell is even the point? The world is a fine place, and worth living in.

@SeraphimDawn
 
I’m not sure what you mean by that.
 
@Klonoahedgehog
 
I feel your pain, really.
 
 
@King Sombra
 
I’ve been like this for about a decade now. I’ve tried time and time again to try to be happy but every time I do something happens to take it all away. It’s like I’m literally not allowed to be happy. Currently I’m dealing with a mental tug-of-war, the textbook definition of cognitive dissonance and it’s very stressful and uncomfortable.

@Feral_Socks  
It’s not that I go out looking for bad stuff, quite the opposite, the bad things come looking for me.

@someguy111  
Maybe you should talk with someone you can trust about your problems.  
Maybe a friend, a family member or even a psychologist.  
If you run around with this problem without giving it air, it might rip you apart.

@Klonoahedgehog  
Sometimes it feels like the only thing i can look forward too these days is my first love, Pokemon.
 
Then imagine if Pokemon was suddenly taken away from you and you were left with nothing, that’s how I feel.

@someguy111  
Well that’s a bit different then. A person who keeps having bad stuff happen to them has every right to become dissatisfied with the world.
 
The people I have a problem with are those speaking and shouting on and on about the evils of humanity, when the truth is that the vast, vast majority of people are just that. People. Living their lives with hopes and dreams and ambitions and mistakes.
 
Sorrow is as much an aspect of humanity as joy. And the fact that we as a species can even recognize what those are and why we feel them is magnificent by its own right.

@King Sombra
 
Maybe you should talk with someone you can trust about your problems.  
I would love to really but there is no one I think I can trust.
 
Maybe a friend, a family member or even a psychologist.  
Don’t have any friends, my family wouldn’t understand, and I have seen a psychologist before and all he did was take my money.
 
To make it worse even if I did find someone to talk to, I find it very difficult to put my feelings about what I’m currently going thorough into words and fear I may understate how bad I really feel or otherwise may not express myself correctly leading to a misunderstanding.

@someguy111  
If you don’t mind, you can talk about it here.

Sometimes when the world is shit and chaotic you just gotta find a ladder and climb the shit out of it.

@Grieffon
 
I would LOVE to talk about it but I don’t know if I should make it public or not. Do you have skype?

@someguy111  
Oh man you really have a hard life huh?  
The only advice i could give you is, try search for some social contacts.  
I can’t even imagine how you feel. I would never shy away to search help from my parents or my big brother.  
Do it for yourself okay.
