Question: I'm so tired, I just want to quit!.!.!.!?

I don't even know what to do with myself at this point!. I feel like I am just wasting my time on this earth!. I don't belong anywhere!. No one understands me and I don't understand others!. I am just fed up with everything!.

Ever since I came to NJ my life has been in turmoil!. I have been depressed for about 9 years now starting from middle school!. I have tried counseling during my time in college but I greatly regret it because it was absolutely no help to my problems!.

I am about to graduate college this December and I am almost done but right now I feel like I can't do it anymore!.!.!.

I hate being home, I hate school!. Although I like my job I hate the people that I work with!.

I feel like I am just wasting my time on this earth!. I don't want to give especially since I have gotten this far but I feel like I just can't continue on!.!.!.

I am just so tired mentally, physically and emotionally!. I can't give up but simultaneously I just can't do it anymore!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I've been there!.

I found something to do that forced me to clear my mind!. It is amazing how even a quick break from the "crap" can make everything that much more bearable!.

For me it was lifting weights when I was younger and in better shape; now, i ride motorcycles!. Either way, in both activities i have to totally clear my mind or I risk physical injury!.

I find that if I can get two out of three (mental, physical, emotional) done, the third will follow naturally!. For me, physical is the one that I have the most control over, so that is where I always start!.

Hate is a strong word, but you do like your job, so try and think about specifics that you like about it, and try and incorporate the likes you have into life more and cut out the dislikes wherever possible!.

Congratulations on finishing college, that shows your determination and follow through!. I htink that you will find as you make your place in the world free from the BS of school you will realize that you are not a waste and that you had to go through the crap to get to the good stuff!.

In the end, make sure you are living YOUR life!. Best of luck and keep at it; everything will work out!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

1) Switch your diet!. Cut out as much of the junk food and chemicals as you can, and/or start taking vitamins (b complex & vitamin c)!. If you want to be extreme, switch to organic and lower your meat consumption!. It's not as expensive as many say- you can order it online as well!. It will give you more energy and help you sleep better at night!. And it won't pack your body full of cancer causing preservatives!.
2) Stop focusing on the things that you do not want to experience!. You just listed everything bad in your life!. List all the the things you are grateful for!. You will feel happier if you exercise more positive thinking!. Do some hobbies that you enjoy, take more sunset walks, just try to enjoy the world around you and don't focus on being exhausted!. Putting all of that energy and focus into your exhaustion will make you feel more of it!.
3) Donate your time!. Community service, charity, anything that makes you feel like you're doing something that matters!. Helping others will make it easier to exercise positive thinking and will make you feel pro-active!.
I know I'm not the first to say these things, but I believe it is a mix of all of things things that makes a person truly happy!. I used to be where you are, but i didn't go to college so really I felt like I was just working like crazy for nothing!. I'd go home from work, eat, sleep, do it again!. I then started looking into the law of attraction and philosophy!. I ended up watching "The Secret," and I would definitely recommend it in this case!. It sounds ludicrous at first, but it really works!. I also started researching Shamanism, Buddhism, and quantum physics!. It's been about a year since I started, and I am more happy than I could have ever imagined!.
I hope that helps a little!. Cheers!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

I didn't care if the world would have blown up!. I was tired too!. Physically, mentally and emotionally and something else I felt too!. My spirit - it was low!. As a child, my light shined like a diamond sun!. Now, it was dim and I didn't know how to keep it from going out!. I read this web page and, among other things going on, it helped me from sliding down into nothing!. When I read this page, I cried and cried and cried - I believe it was relief from grief and sorrow!. I also felt happy when I was done crying!. You know, I haven't felt happy in my life since I was a young child!. Carefree!. That's the word!. I felt free from worry or care of this world!. Whatever happened to me, I know that Jesus did it!. He saved me from destroying myself and gave my real life back to me!.
