Dealing with depression and anxiety

[LittleJerry92]

Look I’m just gonna say this, I have a lot of issues with the people in charge of my old hometown. Them ripping the tracks out, which not only had a nice, mossy look to them but additionally had tons of beautiful plants and flowers growing that were nice to look at when walking down the trails, only contributes to my hatred. All of this replaced with a boring *** gray bike pavement. And I know all of this was just done for money and clout.

I appreciate your encouragement but so many McDonald’s exist in this world. Soil trails only exist in so many and I hate seeing them replaced with pavement. So yes, I chose to take this personally.

Well i choose to take McDonalds seriously too. Maybe instead of complaining about it find a therapist. Are you looking for a solution or a problem?

With all due respect, I think you really do not understand why @LittleJerry92 is frustrated. While it is not my place to talk about his depression, the story about it is a lot more complex than you seem to think it is. And McDonald's is honestly a place that is easily expendable as far as I am concerned.
And no offense, but I noticed you have a tendency to be impulsive with a lot of your posts. You literally made a thread about bashing a child from a fictional show. So please be more tactful with your posts in the future.

Here’s the difference between a McDonald’s vs what I was describing.

McDonald’s has numerous locations - I’m not dismissing off that sure, a location you were used to shutting down can be a bummer, but at the end of the day, many exist.

The scenery I was describing is irreplaceable. This was an old trail that had abandoned railroad tracks that went through my old neighborhood that I have a lot of fond memories of walking on with my parents as a kid after finishing a nice walk in the woods, and I also have memories of riding my bike on that path. There was also a lot of beautiful nature that would grow out of the ground around the tracks that was beautiful to look at.

Since the start of 2020, it went from a couple trees and plants being torn down, to the tracks being stripped away completely at the start of 2021, to the very end of 2022 completely demolishing the soil and preventing any beautiful nature from ever growing out of the ground once the stupid pavement was put in, and this was finished by the end of 2023, with the pavement officially done this year, and it has greatly soured my mood.

Again, I’m choosing to take this personally with the factors of 1) The scenery was absolutely beautiful to look at and the pavement was completely unnecessary with the fact that a bike pavement in my old hometown already f*cking exists and it’s (quite honestly) a waste of time and money, and 2) my general issues with the people in charge of my old hometown. They don’t actually listen to real issues going on and only do things THEY find beneficial.

My current depression has nothing to relate to what was previously going on - at this point, I’ve accepted what’s happened and while it does make me grumpy on the inside, I’ve otherwise moved on cause it isn’t something I can control. My current depression is more my body’s way of releasing a lot of tension from bullsh*t I was previously dealing with for a f*cking year and a half that I don’t wish to describe publicly, but it has almost gotten me into some serious legal trouble a couple times last year. Without going into too many details, I’m just going to say it was an EXTREMELY toxic apartment neighbor I had to live next to for a year and a half that I wish I never had to in the first place.

Gonna be real with you, that response of yours was completely uncalled for and quite honestly just made you look like a complete ***hole. I tried to be civil with you in my last response but you clearly decided to take it as a personal insult. So respectfully, from seeing a lot of older replies of yours as well, I really think you need to learn how to talk to people, both online and maybe real life.

I have to tell the honest truth after dealing with these so-called "bizarre sentences" on the Muppet fandom of the last 3-4 years:

My mother is always concerned about my well-being, because whenever I get stressed or anxious, I hit myself, especially when I read anything online that frustrates me. During our trip to Jordan for the summer, my mother worriedly bought me some medicine to help keep me calm and relaxed; we took two trips to see my Dr. Wael in Amman. I was prescribed the following medicine: Prozac for day, and Risperidome for night. When we got back to America, I continued to take the medicine every morning and evening. That's how my anxiety acted up throughout the summer. Now, I'm peacefully controlling myself, because I have a website blocker to block whatever websites frustrate me and causes me to hit myself.

I know the feeling all too well. I have autism and adhd and I got bullied all through my school years to the point where I dropped out half way through year 9 (I’m from the UK, I believe in the US that’s 8th grade) and I was home tutored. I got better but the bullying caused a lasting effect on me and for years I have struggled with depression. My point is, if you need to talk to someone you can always PM me. I’ll answer and talk. Sending support

So recently a cousin of mine committed suicide because he had some really bad mental health issues and he couldn’t handle life anymore.

Well, my brain is currently processing all this information, but honestly it’s been making me think of just how absolutely DARK my depression really got last year toward the middle of August that thankfully really did start to clear out more as September progressed…… which unfortunately led to just my mind acting up from what I was previously living next to at that time (but honestly since now, my mind has felt so much clearer after 9 years aside from some irritability here and there I’m shedding off), and it just makes me incredibly grateful I managed to fight off all those thoughts at that time cause they were incredibly frustrating, and that was the worst my depression ever reached.

I just wish the same could have been said for my cousin, though.

I'm so sorry to hear this. My condolences to you and your family.

Dang... sorry for your loss, man.
