I Get Up, But I Get Knocked Down Again

Everything seems so futile sometimes. I take a step back, really examine things closely and I can't help but conclude that everything I have done, all I have been working to create, it's all pointless. Completely and utterly pointless. I feel like this so much that I have begun drinking a lot, and can't really stop. Sometimes I get confused and think that the alcohol is what made me depressed, and not the underlying realization which led me to drink in the first place. – Jimryder23

You're telling me, buddy. I feel like shit 100% of the time these days. I used to enjoy waking up, because at least for the first hour or so I had some goddamn time to myself. Now I don't even enjoy that, because when I wake up I only feel the irritation from that goddamn FUCKING alarm clock and I know straight away that another horrible day has just begun. A guy like me could really use a coma, and I don't say that lightly. My therapist told me that this was asinine, so I'm thinking of firing the prick. Nobody tells me what to do, goddammit. – agrarianhat

I feel you Jim. There is just no appreciation for all of the hard work we do nowadays (well hey, I don't know where you guys work, but you seem like pretty reasonable people and hard workers). I am sick and tired of being treated like shit just because of my skin color, too. Here in Baltimore it may as well be a crime to be white. Put on some playful klansman costumes, go for a little walk, end up getting beaten by a black mob while the police cheer them on. Incarceration was total hell. That being said, I was just telling some little dick who was complaining about America that if he doesn't like it, he should leave. Is there no gratitude? No respect? This country has gone down the fucking toilet and the haters are instating a military dictatorship. – myFreedomIsnotFree

I'm not some teabagging piece of shit, MFINF, and we are here to talk about my drinking problem. Fuck off. – Jimryder23

Reading your comments here makes me worry that all of you suffer from really serious stress issues. Have any of you considered meditation or any of that other wacky new age shit? It could really help you guys out. – ChiefBalls

Look, you nihilistic piece of shit, just drink yourself into oblivion. And if ag-hat hasn't picked up a booze habit yet, he probably should, assuming he doesn't own any firearms. Do you raving lunatics think that anyone else actually cares about your problems? The only person who is going to make you stop drinking is you, so quit complaining to the rest of us. – FatHatter64

I told my therapist to bite me today, and that there wouldn't be a check in the mail. I'll just tell my wife that the whole therapy idea didn't really work out; I'm sure she will understand. All of you guys insinuating that I have an anger problem: really? Me? I have never even thought that about myself. None of my friends have ever suggested it either. Really? – agrarianhat

Ya really. Your therapist sounds pretty useless, incidentally, so I agree with you there. – ChiefBalls

I can't even fucking think right now, I drank so much last night and blacked out and find myself back home and without any brain function at all. In between drinking water and throwing up, I have been trying to piece together what the hell even happened last night, but it is pointless, just like everything else. – Jimryder23

I get up again, pour another drink, and fall right on my face; repeat endlessly. – Proverbial_goat
