I'm guessing its because there's hardly anyone here and really nothing to do, but I am really craving human interaction right now.

I don't get much face to face type interaction to begin with but for some reason I'm feeling really lonely right now. I'm bored out of my skull.

I believe its even affecting me at home as well, because I can't seem get into much of anything right now. I can't play a video game for more than a few minutes, TV shows or movies can't hold my attention.

this sucks!

your depressed

buy a revolver
put in a bullet
spin chamber
u know the rest

guarenteed to get you out of your downdrums

I didn't realize ATOT advocated suicide...

It's the best treatment for depression, but big pharma won't tell you that. It's all about profits.

why would i want to be on that?

dude! they totally fix up your life so that womens and all types of people will like you!

not only that, most of their home re-decoration plans involve one or two HDTVs that they feel are absolutely necessary.

....uh, who wouldn't want to get free TVs, pots, pans, wardrobe, cooking lessons, etc.
sure, I'd end up throwing out all the fruity shit they claim that you have to put on your skin, hair, eres, nose, ass...wherever. Most of the freebies kick ass though.

eharmony?

and we come to another issue...women...i need one...

i did do the free thing at eharmony but they couldn't find a match for me in the entire world.
i have tried other sites as well, but never get any contacts and if i make the first contact, they never respond or say they aren't interested.

Wait a minute... you didn't get ANY matches with eHarmony at ALL?

It's been awhile since I had the misfortune of using that site, but at least I got at least a few matches from ugly women every week or so. Maybe you should call up support and complain!

Sad. Get a hobby. And I don't mean fvcking video games. Go to the gym right now, get a membership and vow to get in shape and do a triathlon next year. Join a triathlon club. Take some rock climbing lessons. Pick a marathon to train for. You are doing what most people do which is burn up hours that turn to days, weeks, years and then you die and you've done nothing of merit. What is your passion? Get one and don't make it video games, they are the path to nothingness and a distraction. Use them when you are in the mood or otherwise winding down, but don't center your free time around them.

as for real advice, I support this idea. be more physically active. push yourself past that initial wall of pain and exhaustion, and you'll start feeling 100% better about life in general. it absolutely works.

now...if only I could follow such advice myself....

Where at in PA are you? I live north of Pittsburgh.

45 minutes North of Harrisburg. So basically I have to drive minimum 45 minutes if I want to find anything to do, unless its something outdoorsy.

45 minutes north of Harrisburg puts you around Sunbury/Selinsgrove area. Yeah... unless you like guns or hunting there isn't much to do around there this time of year. I was going to recommend Knoebel's, but even that is already closed.

Wow, I'm glad that I moved out of that area!

 

[Modelworks]

Go to the grocery store .
tolerating people in the way, people that block the isles and ignore you.
People that write checks in the cash only lanes, etc.
You'll be glad to be alone after the experience.

 

[HannibalX]

Try Wal-Mart, you can always find interesting people to laugh at there once laughing at people on YouTube has become old.

I liked my gun store plan as well!

Study robotics, computers, etc. and build you a woman. Or maybe just step outside and look up at the stars be thankful you're here and able to look up at them. Learn to appreciate the simple things in life. Quit crucifying yourself, others are so much better at it.

It's not really a "treatment," per se. Treatment usually implies something which will alleviate symptoms temporarily, allowing a person to get on with life. It's more like saying, "I wanna to get off the ride now! I don't like this one, and never want to see it again!"
Not really a solution either. It's just a way of stopping perceived suffering. Permanently.

no, i was actually surprised it took you so long to post it.

i'm not posting looking for pity. i'm trying to start discussion because bored.

Go to P&N. Plenty of stuff going on there.

Or look for the Portal thread. That'll kill an entire evening.

I think pontifex already has several guns.

perhaps he should go shoot them? ...or perhaps not...

Ok then, it's a cure.

Pardon me, but FSCK that BS about getting home and settled!
Go striaght from work and do something different for a change. Drive in the opposite direction of home. Be brave.

I have a solution, then.

every 4th of July, one of my good friend's neighbors drinks himself silly, walks out to his front yard (this is the thick of the suburbs, mind you), and fires his pistol into the air. No one seems to care b/c he's never a threat to anyone and never has any ill intentions. Not sure how long this has been going on (if indeed it still is--this story is at least 10 years old).

clearly, it seems possible to shoot at night. maybe it helps that it's the 4th, with gunfire easily mistaken for fireworks...but why not just assume every night is the 4th, run outside after work, and start shooting wildly into the air? can't hurt, right? I bet it feels damn good.

(Ummm, this works in the South. not sure about PA)
