I get: angry, depressed, and lose any sense of inertia to change my life sometimes. After getting your teeth kicked in, there are only so many times you have the resiliency to go forward.

QUESTION: HAVE YOU EVER LOST THE DRIVE, THE P~~~ AND VINEGAR, TO WANT TO MOVE FORWARD?

So many posts on this forum are about how great men are. How we create, design, and are driven to move forward. All of that is true, but it makes me wonder how many other men have been in a stagnant pyschological state?

I have friends in real life I broach upon this subect with, but they dont delve into the specifics like I can online.

Is this (the way Im feeling) something common to most of you? Or something youve experienced? Im f~~~ing sick of it. Ive been here before, and got out of it. But Im curious if other dudes have been in the same rut, and just dont admit it in real life.

 

Sorry if this is repetitive. Its important to me to know other men have been here. Is this common?

 

Resident cynic.

If someone ever says they care about any of these things for you, then they are lying and want something from you.

Don't stick your dick into anyone you aren't willing to put up with for eighteen years and nine months.

Yes, I have.

I mustered the internal resources to overcome my temporary emotional swing, namely by riding it out until my glandular system ran out of downer juice and took up another emotional trait.

BTW, I did not, not, take action based on depression or anger. Well, strictly speaking, I lived up to that ideal most of the time but not all. I’m not made of wood.

EVERY LAST MAN HERE has been down ….. a large number only find mgtow when they are.

Being down is human …. getting back up is being a man.

We all reach out to a brother and help him up ….. and by doing so …. we help ourselves also.

Look up ‘keep your frame’ as a man. It will help you I think.

The simple answer is …. you f~~~ing bulldoze through. Head down and march through the storm.

You will meet others as you do so …. you won’t fail …. get up dust off and go.

This is it.

Now move on to the next thing. Times will be good times will be bad. Move on to what is next is what men do.

It’s just a problem if you get stuck in a state like this for a longer period of time. I for one know this feeling pretty well and I even went through a real depression that lastet for more than a year. Take a break and find something to enjoy (NO VIDEO GAMES!!! Bad decision in such a situation). Go out, party hard, meet friends, go for a hike and enjoy nature, go on a weekend trip or whatever you prefer. Just DO something, break out of the daily grind to “refill the battery” and don’t let the bad thoughts permanently circle through your mind.

It is a common failing of childhood to think that if one makes a hero out of a demon the demon will be satisfied.

However, I would recommend not focusing on the pain or monotony, but instead focus on the results it brings.

If viewed and handled correctly, you can find yourself embarking on a journey and possibly finding a new passion or interest.

The only thing more dangerous is standing still and making no effort at all.

Like Winston Churchill said, “Never give in—never, never, never, never, in nothing great or small, large or petty, never give in except to convictions of honour and good sense. Never yield to force; never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy.”

I usually trek forward laughing while spitting out my teeth, it’s the ability to accept things immediately, make course corrections, and move on. My current troubles are a crushed digit tip that’s healing just fine, and this endless sluggish economy that leaves me no alternative but to eliminate use of the dollar as much as I can, to unhitch and not rely on any hopes of a vigorous recovery, in fact, I feel things are about to get much worse, I can’t help but use logic and mathematics to see things are headed toward an 18 trillion dollar destruction… Once you make peace, and accept outstanding threats for what they are (uncontrollable), the depression lifts and hope returns as you journey on your new course…

So, spit out your broken teeth, smile, get use to your new smile, accept your new smile, laugh, and move on!
