I am not following. Do you have feminists camped out in your living room that is preventing you from being who you are in the privacy of your own home?

no, i have a feminist camped online threatening to make my life hell if she ever see's me online again, from the privacy of my own home :p
 
My wife has been booked into a clinic for 2 weeks for depression and anxiety. It got so bad that she could not get out of bed in the morning and any social interaction dumped her into an anxiety nightmare. We were both in denial about it and to me more in a certain extent as she started drinking and that made matters only worse.

Now that she is away I have hit a slump of note. My work is suffering and I am finding a hard time giving her the support she needs in her time of need. I am so to speak a bit lost at the moment. I am trying to take my mind of things and get things in order for when she comes out. Moving out of the place where we are living now as this was a temp house share and getting a place of our own and also getting a pet for us.

We are both close to 40 and this thing has dumped our plans for having kids into a bit of turmoil. Dont know if kids will even be possible at this stage.

Just letting of some steam.

And how would she know you are online? What is it that you are doing online which is apparently so bad that you have feminist groupies following you around everywhere you go online?

Sorry to hear about your wife. We are all dealing with these secret demons. I am bipolar myself, and struggle with it every single day of my life.

Your wife is lucky to have such an understanding husband. There is no miracle cure for this disease and most people seem to think that people with depression just fake it.

Why do you always hint at "these despicable things" about you, but when people ask you refuse to tell the story. It is rather annoying. Either stop hinting at it or come out with what it is.

Coz i have lost thousands of rands and hours of footage that pisses me off, yet at the same time i have not a soul in the world i can actually tell of my plight, without sounding insane or as if i'm a whiny bitch.

Bear with me :p

Getting a pet is a great idea. They do make a difference. Strength to you and your wife.
 
There it is again. STS confusing the hell out of me now with statements of how he can't be himself in his own home because someone is watching him online. Here it is buddy. Maybe the problem isn't with others but how you see yourself. If you see yourself as despicable then that is what you will be.

He's depressed about it?

I don't know but his problem seems to be one of self acceptance and not chemical imbalance like most of us.

I am despicable. I have bouts of self-loathing which shifts to days of self-love. I have days where i feel lonely and days when i'm happy without anyone bothering me. I tried both sides of the coin, i tried using my experiences to help others be better people and that ****ed up, then i used my experiences to serve my own selfish interests for pleasure and money, and i ****ed that up too

i can tell that if it wasn't for my family and my incredibly beautiful son, i would have offed myself already, not because i don't love life but because i know how despicable i am going to be one day. and THAT depresses me, because i want to off myself right NOW because i know my problems are unfixable, but i also want to be a good father and a better person for the people i come into contact with
