Having Trouble Adjusting to life changes

[Jadow]

Hi all, just need a place to vent and hopefully get some support or advice.

I've been going through a lot of things lately and having some strange new thoughts and ideas come into my head that I've never had before.

I'm usually a happy go lucky guy, I have a low stress job (mowing lawns mostly) and don't ask for much from the world, but lately I've started to think I could be doing so much more.

My friend Dr. Angelo says I have a lot of potential and can do so much more. I've been playing a lot of video games with him lately and those games seem to be having some kind of affect on me.

Sorry have to stop now, Peter is calling and wants to hang out.

I feel you, man. Lately I've been working the night shift and I don't know how long I can take it. I get home right as the sun starts shining, which I think is making it hard to regulate my insomnia. It's a lot of misery to carry, and a lot of the time I just feel like running...but sometimes a man's gotta take a stand.

tell james bond to stop fucking with you.

 

[styrafoam]

JOBE! Why are you talking to these godless heathens instead of doing your chores?! Now you get the belt, idiot.

Angminas,

Try working the night shift while attending college. I worked from 12-8 am and then I drove myself to college for a few hours of intense studies. I almost fell asleep at the wheel a few times. I look back and I am amazed at how I was able to pull it all off.

I've seen this movie, fyi it won't end well for him.

I'm usually a happy go lucky guy, I have a low stress job (mowing lawns mostly)

There was one day I walked out of my job to go home and saw the crew mowing the lawns of the business next door and I thought to myself "I wish I could do that for a living".

You sir are living my dream life.

Video games, slowing down human progress and prosperity for decades.

Ten hour later:

lead systems engineer for a 90 million revenue business.

Congrats OP! :thumbsup:

Maybe tomorrow you can be elected Governor.

Don't worry about potential and 'what you could have been.' You'll never be happy that way, you can't change what interests you. If you want to be more disciplined in something, study it, but fretting about it gets you nowhere fast. Like crack cocaine.

Get out now, for heaven's sake. I did that 4 years, barely got sleep days, kept showing up for work dead tired and it ruined my life. Trouble is the lack of serotonin (due to lack of sleep) makes you obsessive, so you keep plugging away when you should be pulling the plug. Eventually you start having panic attacks. Also, you will be too drowsy to make a good impression in job interviews, so you're doubly screwed.

Did some of you guys seriously miss the Lawnmower Man references?

 

[Jadow]

yep saw the again Lawnmower Man yesterday, really like that movie.

 

[manimal]

If I was forced to have the haircut the lawmower man had in the early part of the movie all the killing would be justfied just look at the guy who carried around the compress air killing people.
