Just a quick thread to the unfeeling OCUK masses :p.

My mum rang tonight and we had the usual chat (im at uni). Don't know why but i've felt like **** after it.

It seems to be the realisation of how life just drifts on. Seems like only yesterday that I was 12, then 14 then 16 then 18 now 20. It dosen't seem like homesickness, more just a look at how life is.

It also made me realise how unfair life is. I love my parents and my brothers and sisters, and the realisation of how life progresses by, as Macbeth would say "out out brief candle" or something like that :/ .


Should have gone out drinking tonight, decided to be anti social and have been brooding in my room.

meh.

Anyone else know where I'm coming from?
 
We are all extremely lucky to be alive and should make the most of the short time we have, some are more lucky than others; always remember things could be much, much worse.

Edit: Or, Lysander's pic, rofl.

FFS, you're 20.
 
Nothing wrong with a bit of timely reflection, don't dwell on it though and remember your in the prime of your life don't waste a minute of it worrying it's going to be over to soon because before you know it, it is :)

Said pretty much that to a friend of mine last night...her nan died 2 weeks a go...she swiftly punched me in the nose after I said it. :(
 
I can't change my profile age :/ i'm 20.

Yeah, need to do more with my life, i've realised just how little i've done with my life.
 
Probably better that you didn't go out drinking tonight if you're prone to these kind of thoughts, or it's been something in the back of your mind for a while.

The biggest problem with sentience is that we are aware it will end sometime. That doesn't mean you can't enjoy it before that happens. If you're spending your time in a depressed state you're essentially wasting what little time you've been given.
 
Just out of curiosity, will a university provide councilling if you request it? Do they charge a fortune?


Damn I need to meet someone I will never meet again, someone I could trust and have a talk with them. Need to thrash some issues out :(
 
No offence to lysander, but I ******* hate it when people say stuff like that.
Some people suffer from clinical depression their entire lives without ever really having suffered at the hands of others. Some people suffer at the hands of others and always pull through. Misery is nothing to laugh at, and to basically imply that they are merely angsty teenage attention seekers is insulting and insensitive.
People with psychological impairments suffer enough predjudice and discrimination as it is.

Exactly why I haven't seen someone before about whats troubling me. The stigma is still massive and actually affects the jobs you can get.
 
I believe Kleenex were invented so that you could thrash your issues out.

But on a serious note, i get like this sometimes, just gotta get on with your life, and you should have gone out. Always choose the option to go out, you're only young once and i intend to make the most of it.

You're born, you live, and you die.

It is up to you and you alone what happens in that middle section where you 'live'.

I've been through depression myself a couple of years ago, it was terrible. But I didn't know I was depressed till I was out of it. I could then look back and see that I was.

Depression is awful, but it's still important to try and maintain a lightheartedness when it seems that it could help to gather perspective. I think the OP is having a bad night certainly, not the same as depression but it still makes you feel down and miserable. Good luck to him.

Yes, and it should be free. I didn't take advantage of mine when I needed them, don't make the same mistake as me.
