I think today was the closest I've ever been to throwing in the towel with regards to my goals in bodybuilding. I've been more depressed these past few months than I can remember. I figure a good 2 months before I'm healed, and that's being optimistic I guess. I have to start physical therapy this week too. My mom wants me to go talk to someone because I'm 'always so depressed.' And she thinks I might 'do something crazy.' I won't of course, but I guess all I really do other than attempt to workout and go to school is try to escape through video games and movies. I really don't have any friends, there is almost no one at my school (alternative) who isn't a drugged up moron, and I'm not really into the rave scene anyway. And now I have to go to a dermatologist because lately, out of the blue, I've been having acne breakouts and I may be getting cystic acne which I've never had before. I wonder if it's because of stress? Anyway, these seem like small problems when I read them over, but I guess it's hard for most people to understand how important bodybuilding is to me. It got me out of a drugged up haze and back on track, as well as giving me more happiness than I have ever felt. Anyway, I just wanted to say that unless I'm fucking dead, I will never quit!!!     | ||

Always stay in the game. If anything, hitting the iron has always helped me through other problems I encounter in life. | ||

Don't give up. I feel your pain. I have been so damn worried about everything. I was supposed to be driving this summer, I failed my test in July then my mom got all bitch and would not let me take it until now. Now the weather has been bad and it has already been postponed once. The gym decided to stop offering one month memberships. I was worried for a few days that I was not going to be able to lift anymore. They either wanted you to pay all at once for a year or deduct out of checking. Since I do not have a checking account I was worried my mom wouldn't let it deduct out of hers. Well she went in there today and that is taken care of. I let alot of things worry me, once I have my liscense and a better job I feel like everything will be just fine, you're not alone man, I get depressed too. I go to a school full of potheads as well. Its not that I do not have any friends, I talk to people during classes and what not, I just don't have a whole lot of close people that I like to run around with. | ||

Cheer up, college is around the corner then you get to really have a good time and find a new crowd to hang with. And acne is caused by stress, and when you get it you stress even more so it makes it worse. Drink like a gallon of water a day. Just wait till you hit a cycle! say hello to bacne. ------------------ | ||

I had cystic acne in HS, its not stress, but being sweaty 24/7 contributes, keep your face clean and dry, I took 2 cycles of Accutane and I haven't had a zit in 3 years. ------------------ | ||

I'm actually very meticulous about keeping my face clean. I wash it 10-15 times/day as well as using several topicals. My mother still has acne so it runs in the family. I was kind of hoping I could use accutane becasue it is a fairly permanent solution right? | ||

accutane is permanent, but the whole procedure is pretty intense, take it for 5 straight months, it dries out EVERYTHING, shouldn't mix alcohol, and sure as hell wouldn't mix juice. Its hell on the liver, you take blood tests every month to make sure you liver is still functioning properly. The doc won't perscribe the shit to you until you have tried everything and your acne is still very bad. ------------------ | ||

hahaha!! i'm sorry man but it's funny how similar you sound to me. i swear that sounds just like my life. i just try to waste away the days, and worse, I FUCKING HATE LIFE!! but instead of just giving up i will go to new extremes to become flawless. i swear i will not rest until i'm perfect in about every way (except mentally, hell what can i do bout that?). confidence is a big problem now, but when i know i'm the stuff i will be the most arrogant SOB the world has ever seen! btw, accutane is NOT permanent. i know, i was on it for 13 months. i still break out occasinally but it is not that bad anymore.

Yeah d, that's what I was saying. This shit, along with a lot of other fucked up things that have happened lately have made me a pretty cynical motherfucker, but that's good though. I too will go to extremes to achieve physical perfection. I already have been minus the drugs. I already didn't trust people but some recent things at school have caused me to dislike most people in general. Oh well, it could always be worse I guess. | ||

I find that I don't much like people in general and tend to keep to myself. Don't go out much. Already been through the drug scene, and that gets you nowhere. Other than lifting I don't do much with my time. I guess some of us weren't designed to be compatible with people. Once you can find happiness in loneliness there's pretty much nothing in the world that can bring you down. | ||

Hey dude I feel your pain. Four years ago I fell off a roof and broke my neck and suffered a spinal cord injury. I was supposed to be in a wheel-chair the rest of my life. Through weight training and a total pissed off attitude I got out of the wheel-chair and am currntly walking. I do wear ankle braces but at least I'm not a gimp. Strive to achieve the unconcievable! --Your Brother In Iron-- Thor | ||

man i think you better relize that life isnt all looks bro.educate your self and keep your head high.when you get that 100k job life will be good.i think you feel very unimportant or insignificant,try doing something productive with your time.depression is vicious and will totally block you of achieving any thing be careful not to fall in that circle. ive had a friend who became severly depressed because he wasnt attractive he completley hid from society and ended up doing heroin and eventually hung himself. if you free your self from societys expectations only then will you be truly free. i know its sad that actors and models make more money than engineers and physicists but this world is fucked up so stand tall harden up and pursue your dreams dont let shit like acne or an injury stop you.look at all the great people who have contributed so much to humanity. most of them are butt ugly but theyre great and no one cares about that bull shit.....ill take brains over beauty any day... s00ooouurrjjrreekk | ||

Bullshit. Not everything makes you stronger, not everything makes you a better person. Some experiences a person simply should not have to go through. You are in one now. I know. It has been nearly two months since I have been able to lift, and I am not healing, so who knows if I ever will again. I spend every day wishing it was tomarrow, I have dreams about going to sleep and waking up in a month. The one thing I cannot stand is experienceing life right now. And... to top it off, I might loose my job over the same mistake. Wouldn't that be the icing... I know what you are going through, and I will not tell you to hold your head high, because their isn't necessarily a reason to. I will, however, tell you that know matter how hard, you have to find a way to like yourself even when what you have defined yourself through has been stripped away. It may sound impossible, but you must find a new focus. If you don't, you will drive yourself crazy... Puc ------------------ |
