Ever just get tired of everything?

Is anyone else just a magnet for bad luck, or is it just me? I feel like for every good thing that happens 5 bad things have to happen to pay for it. I think someone put a curse on me somewhere around the 6th grade and it's gotten worse ever since.
 
Yup. Happiness is fleeting, but misery keeps on giving, and it's usually human instigated. I think I'd like to live in the middle of nowhere Ireland or Russia. Just disappear, and live happily ever after.

I seriously could just disappear...but I have a wife and kids that may miss me and my financial support 🙂

I'm one of those people that could be perfectly happy alone though, because it seems that everyone I bump into needs something from me, but I never ask for anything and am totally self-sufficient. I'm at a point where I don't have anything else to give.

Stop being an enabler?

Remember (outside of family).....more people = more problems.

Focus on your family ONLY. 😉
 
Yes. I do get tired of everything and I'm not even married or have kids. Usually when I feel like that, a good meal and a good night's sleep makes me feel a lot better. Try to put your life into perspective. I have good days, and bad days.

Yesterday, I was feeling like a million bucks. Got some good sleep the night before, worked, got off work and lifted weights, g/f made me dinner then I went to band practice. I was super grateful for everything and felt super great. However, around 11:30pm, I was getting hungry and super tired. At this point, I HATED EVERYTHING. I needed food and sleep!

Heh, it's a little more complicated than that. Here's a sample of my life:

We built a house back in 2005, the taxes, insurance, and payments turned out to be higher than we were originally told. By the time the final payments came up, we would have had to pay $20000 to the builder to back out, so we were locked in. The realtor for our old house assured us we were in a hot selling area and would have no problems selling the house within 6 months. Our new house would be ready in 8 months, so that would work out great! It took TWO YEARS to sell, meaning double mortgage payments.

My wife was severely injured at work and had to apply for early retirement. We were told it would take around 6 months to complete. It took 18 months...during which time we got 50% of her income. We were told she would get her full income and benefits as part of her pension, but because her retirement didn't complete in time, we missed the windows and they cut health benefits from pensions. She's now at 72% of her income + $250/month for insurance.

Every time we get money in the bank someone comes up out of the blue and says "gimmie". Our local village apparently has a 1.5% income tax that I didn't know about, and our accountant was under-estimating our payments, meaning we now have a $1000 tax bill due in two days that we didn't know about until 2 weeks ago right before the holidays.

I walked out to my car for work yesterday morning and had a flat tire. My daughter started driving last month and drove over a nail on the way to the mall last night. I went to fill it up to get to the tire store and my son left the inflator pin in our compressor. I went to pull it out and the "pin" part came out, but not the base. I spent a half an hour trying to MacGyver a way to get the base out, finally did, and made it to work 45 minutes late...for which I got in trouble.

And that's just the half of it...
 
Something about a self fulfilling prophecy.
Probably depression(physical causes or psychological causes) and if you are an introvert don`t avoid the world :it`s the only solid ground when you are lost. Don`t let the inner world overwhelm the "real" one.
 
It's called life, find a way to enjoy your shit sandwich or just stop eating it. Those are your two options.

Not to be callous but everything you listed there sounds like first world problems. You have a roof over your head and are relatively healthy. You're complaining about the fact that you have two houses while there are a ton of people who don't even have enough to eat or a warm place to sleep right now. Things can always be 100x worse than they are. It sounds like your first problem is that you're too trusting of what people tell you. If you want more out of life then go take it and make it happen, otherwise no one is going to do it for you.
