life help: 1 You ever just sit and look at your life or your day and think “how the hell did I end up here? - Help.com

1 You ever just sit and look at your life or your day and think “how the hell did I end up here?


2 Do you find yourself doing that at least 2 times a week if not more?
3If you feel that you are basically a decent person, the kind of person that almost always puts others before you and your needs, are you really what you think you are deep inside yourself. Is it even possible?

These 3 questions rule the minutes of the hours of the days of my life. I wonder if anything is actually the way I think I see it. Sure, most things come and go and without horrific consequences. But it sure does seem that too many times my world is torn apart and turned upside down. I CAN’T be the only person in the world that feels these things, at least I sure hope not. Want to know the really messed up part of all this? I have been pronounced dead once and almost died 2 other times. So I AM actually a very “up” person. I probably give people too much credit because I look for good in all people and things as opposed to having negativity rule my world. This post isnt me complaining, whinning, throwing a pity paty for myself, or me looking for some “magic” answer. Its merely a little note for anyone else out there who has or does feel any of these same things to let them know that they arent the only one.

Hahaha no you aren’t the only person who has or thinks that. Once I hit 24 I had that moment of clarity and left the meth lab forever, stuck out my thumbs and found myself in a city 1600 miles away starting a new life.

When I was thinking about it I thought about it often, even to the point of depression and insanity ~chuckles~, but once I got off my *** and started seeking ways to change my life it started to go away, but when I got complacent again around 35 BLAMMO! Here it comes again daily, all I can think about is what the **** am I doing with my life? And again I changed my life and altered my course thereby making it go away yet again!

A couple years ago I was diagnosed with a couple terminal diseases and several chronic ones. I had to shut my consulting business down, which means I was losing $50/hr, plus I was delivering pizza part time and making $15/hr. My wife was a manager at McDonalds, so she was making decent money.

When I had to quit here it came again! again! and again!, so once again I am in the midst of changing my life like a snake shedding his skin when it gets a bit too tight ~smiles~, so no you are not alone. It is calling to you to do soemthing, but it is up to you to figure out what ~smiles~.

You are not the only one.
We all have those feelings in our life, at one point or another.
It happens.

I have them… been having them for a while.. but I can actually pinpoint the event that caused these thoughts to appear in my life ( as this is not the first time.)

i know im not the only one, but its good to be reassured. life’s hard and it doesnt get any easier. there are moments when you feel likr the more you try, the hardee it gets or the more you screw up. but we cant give up hope. we cant because one say it’ll be worth it.
my thoughts :).

Nah, I usually know exactly how I got there. Sometimes I wish I didn’t know, though.

You sound like someone who does alot of thinking-Dont ever stop but take action! We tend to get bored with life or life throws us some twists and thats when we just need to back up and reevaluate and take action. God sometimes works in mysterious ways- he may be pulling you in a different direction.. go with it- you have a purpose! we all do..But alone in your thinking -I think not..I once read a quote by Einstein I would like to share..
Not everything that can be counted counts-
and not everything that counts can be counted..
Its helping people that matters- after all we are all in this together! :)
