Gay Chat V11 - Were you expecting something funny? - General

I really wish i could relate to people with depression. I find it hard to sympathise because i'm guessing i've never really suffered from it, or if i did, i may have just recovered from it A LOT better than most people. When i was doing my uni course i remember feeling like shit because my dad just broke up with his fiance 2 months before the wedding and he spent 2 hours every night complaining, moaning and venting to me about her like a broken record and whenever i had a problem he would just change the subject to him swiftly. It was horrible and everyday i felt like jumping infront of a bus. Which i've read from the symptoms i had was actual depression. But i just really wish i could relate to people with it because in my head i just want to be like "get over it and stop moaping" but i highly doubt its that easy but sometimes i feel like some people just don't try to get out of it. PLEASE NOTE I AM NOT GETTING AT ANYBODY HERE ABOUT DEPRESSION. PLEASE JUST TAKE WHAT I SAY WITH A GRAIN OF SALT. Also i'm raged at the moment because i stayed at my boyfriends house last night and his mother had friends over. We stayed upstairs watching TV because y'know, you just want to be together as a couple obviously. My boyfriend went downstairs and acknowledged his mums friends with a "hello" and stuff and everything was fine. Then this morning his mum had a MASSIVE screeching go at him for being rude and not saying "hello" to them even though he did, he said he did and his mum was just shouting "YOU'RE A LIAR, DON'T LIE TO ME!" and i just wanted to jump in and prove her wrong but she is such a selfish immature woman that she listens to nobody elses side but herown. I was meant to be going to his this weekend aswell but i physically can't in the fear i'm going to lose my temper and say stuff that i'll regret. I'm just so angry at how a woman could be such a pathetic selfish person.

I'm so fucking annoyed right now. I gave my IPS personal visit, I called the numerous times, often within the same day and yet I got nowhere beyond line "I'll call a technician to help you with it." I genuinely feel like I'm letting them shit on my head. What do I have to do, what do I have to endure to get back what I am paying for?!

Say you've tried contacting them X number of times and think that you are being treated very poorly. They will soon listen to you.

And this time I'm not having anymore shit from them. Don't worry, greely, I'll make you proud!

MAKE ME PROUD SON!

Well, I guess it's a progress alright. So I talked to them and I finally got some info on what's going on. Thing is, I live on the very edge of our city, right next to the forest. And the signal here is apparently really bad so the speed they are giving us doesn't reach this far. Fortunately, they are co-working with another company that does Internet providing so they are gonna give it my case and see if they could hook us up. They [B]SHOULD[/B] call me once they know if it's possible or not.

Awesome. Well i work with a company that supplies Wi-Fi for hotels, accomodations, barracks ect... And when we have a fault with a line via BT or TalkTalk or Virgin ect... We have to persistantly ring them every other day and just keep asking for updates. They will get it done a lot quicker just to shut you up haha. Because if you leave it, they'll leave it at the bottom of the pile and not do anything until they have done everything else.

[QUOTE=Viva;46422112]You'll never go anywhere if you keep that mentality. It's good to realize you have a problem but even worse if you use that problem as a crutch to prevent you from bettering yourself. If you stay only online it won't lead to good things, yeah you'll meet some friendly faces and people you'd call your friends, but online socializing is not, and never will be, a complete alternative to actually going outside and being with friends in person. Sticking solely to online socializing often reinforces anti social aspects or leaves the person largely socially awkward (and i mean actually being awkward not, whoops i dropped my pen i'm so akward. I mean the kind of awkward where people don't even want to be around you because you either can't hold a conversation correctly or start talking about weird shit for no reason). You sound like you have legitimately bad anxiety issues to which you should actively seek help for instead of hiding online. If you're that close to breaking down just going out then you will never be able to function correctly and that's a world of problems all on it's own. This isn't the same as telling someone with depression to cheer up, roll didn't over simplify a single thing. Think of online socializing as like, crackers with some peanut butter on them. You can survive off just those crackers and peanut butter, but you'll only just survive. You'll still be malnourished and lacking in a few health aspects from lack of change in your diet from something as basic as peanut butter crackers. They get the job 'done', but not nearly to the same extent a meal of steak and eggs would do.[/QUOTE] I do regret my wording, and trying to nag at Roll wasn't right and I'm really sorry for it. I'm taking my part of this discussion to PMs, if any has to be had at all. No need in turning the Gay Chat into another Depression/Anxiety general thread. I apologize for starting.

Anyone have any tips for making a good breakfast? I always feel like I don't make enough

[QUOTE=Zillamaster55;46423297]Anyone have any tips for making a good breakfast? I always feel like I don't make enough[/QUOTE] Bacon, Eggs, Toast Done

Bacon, Bacon and more Bacon. Add an egg in there too. Maybe some chopped tomatoes. Baked Beans Waffles? Suasages Scrambled Eggs too Hash Browns Im hungry.

I have a really hard time getting anything down my throat the first few hours after i wake up. I can't imagine eating something as heavy as bacon and eggs for breakfast, i would probably puke.

On the weekend a full english breakfast sounds heavenly.

I don't like eating breakfast, but I love breakfast food. Bacon, eggs, and orange juice sounds like the tastiest thing ever right about now

I love when restaurants do breakfast 24/7 2am bacon and eggs is my shit

There is an IHOP within walking distance to me and waffles n' chicken at three in the morning is amazing

Sigh... this online dating thing is depressing. No one responds to my messages :(

Anytime I've tried to use OKC I just got messages from guys in their 40s wanting a one-night stand No thanks.

It literally works with everything.

Hello you handsome people

[QUOTE=Batmoutarde;46424782]DOCTOR DOCTOR I GOT SHOT FUCK IM BLEEDING "I'm listening" FUCK THAT HELP ME AAAAAAH THE PAIN *smiles and nods*[/QUOTE] Works a lot better than interrupting to tell them about the time you got shot twice. (Analogy for what happens 99% of the time when you tell someone about your depression)

[QUOTE=greeley;46423356]Bacon, Bacon and more Bacon. Add an egg in there too. Maybe some chopped tomatoes. Baked Beans Waffles?

please dont tell me my disk died. PLEASE GOD NO.

So after my A-Levels I'm thinking of trying to get into Virginia Tech It'd be awesome because I get to 1. get out of this country 2. travel abroad and learn in a different culture 3. get a good qualification 3. [B]get the fuck out of this country[/B] 4. meet the people I know in VA 5. [B][I]holy shit i could finally be free from this place[/I][/B] my school says it can help me organise it and nearly every student who's came from here and wanted to go international has done so i'm starting to build some confidence too I've got a while to go before I actually get there but it'd be pretty awesome if I did, especially since now VA is one of the states that dropped the "no gay marriage" thing, tbh I'd gladly stay there after I'm done with uni EDIT: oh god why am i page king no please

Is your school gonna help cover it? Or your government? Or are you able to pay for it out of pocket? Or loans? I only ask because VT is like 36K a year for out of state students alone (this doesn't include the health insurance, books, lab fees, laundry, and other shit), you should probably factor that into your decision.

First week back at college nailed down, apparently all my completed assignments appear to be very good. And me and my sister just completed Halo 3 on Legendary together. I know it's probably obvious but fuck the second last level, that amount of flood on legendary is horrific.
