When is enough 'enough?'

[Guest forgottenone]

Is it when you ****ing wake up to the fact that everything you do is pointless, that you will always be kicked when down ... ground in to the ground, when there is nothing left ... that nothing you ever do, will change not even one part of your life. When every single fibre of your being is exhausted, tired ... realizing you can never change things, no matter how hard you fight. This is your lot in life. Doing things the right way, being honest, decent ... law abiding ... where does that get you? That the fighting against inevitability ... tires you out so much you wake up and smell the very obvious smell of coffee that is the midnight of your self realization in life. It's never going to change, stop trying to change it.

 

And that life for some will always be the same until the day you die. No matter what.

Aw forgottenone, I can understand where you're coming from, believe me I can, but there is always some small thing that you can do to make things better. If you keep chipping away at little things that you can improve, then suddenly one day you'll find things aren't as bad as you thought.

 

You've found CAG now, and we're all here to help each other. That can't be bad can it?

I've been there, had blokes use me as a bank and/or punchbag, had my place reposessed and been made redundant and told 'You will find it difficult at your age and with your lack of skills to get another job'. Proved that lot wrong, they just wanted to pay me peanuts to do everyones work.

 

I'm now in a very good job, nice perks, friendly colleagues, starting to clear a path to better things.

 

It is a long haul upwards and people are too ready to push you back down but try and stand your ground.

 

Life can feel very bad at times but there is some light - at least in another day you can say 'No' to something or someone instead of saying 'Yes'.

Forgottenone I totally get you. I feel exactly the same at the moment and have never felt so lost in my life. I'm a bloody fantastic problem solver yet I can't figure out this one.
